Computer Lab

        In computer lab, I learned about how big of a deal starvation is and the game Food Force. In the game, Food Force, it explains how to help people with starvation like packing nutritious food. Also, it taught how to throw food sacks to the people by adjusting with the wind. There are starvation problems still today, and almost 15 million children, die from starvation everyday. How can starvation be solved by human beings of 2012, who are the only ones who can end this?

Computer Lab Wonders

Probably wondering about Raspberry Pi on this fine day.... Raspberry Pi is a single-board computer that is portable and can be plugged into a computer and TV! It is plugged in with a cell phone charger, keyboard plug, and other plugs too. On the Raspberry Pi, it could create a word document, play video games, and even has a USB port. The Raspberry Pi was designed in UK and sold 10,000 of them on the first sale. Tired with having to carry the big laptop everywhere, the answer to that is a Raspberry Pi.

Computer Lab

          In computer lab, I learned about different sites that teach students about all the subjects. One site, Grammar Girl , teaches all about grammar like: how to speak English like the Irish or when to capitalize Constitution. Wonderoplis shows videos that answers questions in every subject like: Why do giraffes have long necks or why veins are blue not red. E-Learning for Kids teaches the students about all the subjects including health and technology. Wonderoplis, E-Learning for Kids, and Grammar Girl are sites that help students learn and even better , they may actually find it exciting!o:
