http://slener.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Story Time With Nels. Thursday, February 26, 2015. The Future of News. People drive every day. It is a necessity to be able to drive places.

Anthony's group had a different idea. When most people...

The giant oak tree. Whose long gone limbs I remember. As if they were my own. I’m from going to church every week,. Blonde hair, and blue eyes,. From Noah, Ava, Annelise, and Leah. I’m from picky eaters and curiosity,. And from strong emotions. I’m from “it’s good for you”. I’m from In The Garden. The person who I am.

Story Time With Nels. Sunday, April 7, 2013. To Kill A Mockingbird : 3. Mr Ewell approached him, cursed him, spat on him, and threatened to kill him. Atticus was one of the few people that were not completely racist. He would have been a great example for people on how they should view race. But those people were raised to be that way. They were raised in an environment where they couldn't have any other view than white = good and black = bad instead of white = black = good. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Story Time With Nels. Friday, October 25, 2013. Even bigger than Okonkwo's fear of being weak is a fear that every single person ever has had. The fear of change. Everybody on this earth is scared of change. A good example is Iron Man 2. Put yourself into Okonkwo's shoes. If you had your own son joining the Christians, you would be bursting with fear. Who will carry out your traditions? How will the tribe even operate? Is it all even true? Monday, October 14, 2013. I am expecting the teachers to be more ...

But I would love to keep my family together even more. I will never be able to say enough so I am going to stop here. Thank you M...

Story Time With Nels. Thursday, May 14, 2015. 10 Days of News. There are thousands of news sources throughout the world. It's overwhelming how many sources we can choose from.

International, national (typically combined with international), semi-local, and local. International news would be places like BBC. Do the ch...
