I could walk down the hall and say you look nice today and wave to them that is showing civility, going up to someone and saying looks like you got dressed in the dark or saying you look better today than yesterday, that is not showing civility. Showing civility is easy you can be mad, sad or angry and still be nice enough to show civility. You can show civility to any one, like your mom, friend, cousin, sister or brother and that’s not all you can show civility to a pet, by maybe giving your pet a treat, something like that is making someone feel better so it counts as showing civility. Civility can make you or your friends feel better at any time of the day or the night. Showing civility any day or night can make you or your friend fell like a good, nice or a happy, like if you are feeling bad because someone showed bad civility to you, you can tell someone you look really, really good to day where did you get your clothes from? And if they are showing good civility they will say something back like thank you but you look better than me today. But if they are showing bad civility back they will say something like thank but it looks like you got dressed in the dark so you could really use a good make over at justice. that would be showing bad civility and make you feel bad about you or your clothes.
Civility is kindness and treating other people the way you want to be treated.

Volunteerism is important because if no one volunteered
Nothing would get done. Volunteerism is something you do for free to help something or someone. Sometimes people help an endangered species, have a fundraiser for homeless pets. You can do a lot of things to help by volunteering. Everyone can volunteer. A lot of people in my class have volunteered for things we did not get paid to do them they did it out of the kindness of their hearts. Gracie has done a pet drive for S.A.F.E, Abby has done a beach clean up . These things were really awesome and helpful. That is volunteerism it feels really good when you volunteer. When it’s all done you feel like you’re walking on air. Hi my name is Mia. I and going to tell you about 100 acts of service. Our class has been challenged to something called 100 acts of service. It is where our class has to do 100 things in all to help our community. For example you can do a fundraiser, and other things to be helpful and nice. Well, I choose to sell lemonade with my friends and then all of the money will go to an association that helps people with something called Down syndrome. The reason I choose to do something for Down syndrome is because my little brother has Down syndrome. I know that you are wondering what Down syndrome is. Well, Down syndrome is where you have an extra chromosome. You are born with Down syndrome and you cannot help the reason that you have Down syndrome. Back to 100 acts of service. Each of us have to make five to six thing or do five to six things to help with our community. Our class got challenged to 100 acts of service by another class. We can do 100 acts of service in class or at home or mostly anywhere. So far 100 acts of service is going really well to me.
Hi, my name is Leonard, and today I’m going to talk about the You Matter Manifesto. The You Matter Manifesto is a creation of Angela Maiers and its meaning was to make people feel more important. The phrase “You Matter” means that you have an important role in the world. You can have an important role in the world when you: help stop wars like the war between the United States and Afghanistan. The phrase “You are enough” means that you are enough to do or be anything. You can be a game designer and become famous or become an artist and invent a new type of art. The phrase “You have influence” means that you can inspire people to take your ideas and make them better. You can be inspiring when you make a new invention like an App like a Nintendo 3ds version of Game of war: fire age. The phrase you are a genius means that you are a genius in more ways than one. You can be a genius by being a nice person or being good at math, science, reading or social studies. The phrase “You have a contribution to make” means that if you have something to do that will change history that you’re allowed to do so. You can change history by stopping a war or making a cure for a brain injury. The phrase “You have a gift that others need” means that when you are good at math and someone else isn’t as good at math, they need your help with math. You can help people earn the gift they need by tutoring them with whatever they need help learning. The phrase “Your actions define your impact” means that your thing that you did wrong shapes your future. You can do something bad and make your future bad or you can do something good and make your future good. The phrase “You are the change” means that your actions change the world. You can change the world by making a popular app on an i-pad.
For my 3rd quarter genius hour I did a pet supply drive. Genius Hour is where you think of something you’ve always wanted to do that’s not valiant. I got a lot of donations and I’m really thankful for everyone that helped. My whole school donated, and I was out sick for two days and my friends, Mia Sartori, Dominic Lopez, Kayla Lahey, Piper Ledyard, Cameran Swartzlender, Savannah Bason and most of all my teacher Sean Farnum. I did this pet drive at my school Palencia Elementary. I held this pet supply drive March 9th-12th. I did this project because I love animals and I wanted to help. I emailed Peggy Larooche from S.A.F.E Animal Rescue and she came to my school so I could give her all the donations and she did a presentation for my class and I and she brought a foster dog from S.A.F.E named Rosie she would own her but she has 7 cats and a dog. She was super kind and I loved having her. This is one of the things she said during the presentation, she said some of the ways dogs might need a home is because the owner have been sick and couldn’t take care of the dog anymore. I asked her for a couple of quotes and she gave me one this is the one she gave me, I have a passion for saving animals and helping them good loving homes and my teacher Sean Farnum gave me quote as well, this is the one he gave me “It makes me so happy when students like Gracie uses her Genius Hour time to help others”. I asked my friend Mia which I mentioned towards the beginning what her favorite part was about helping with the project and what her favorite part of the project over all was, this is the answers she gave me “bringing the pet supplies out to the park and the other answer she gave me was “meeting the foster dog Rosie”.
Today is the second What If Wednesday that I have ever had. We also have a red sack full of what if questions for Wednesdays. And we have nicknames still to be funny and cute. But for this What if Wednesday, our questions are: What if you married a cartoon character, and, What if you had a pet Unicorn. I chose the appropriate one for my age because 9 year olds don’t need to worry about marriage. Anyway, I want to talk about what if I had a pet Unicorn. If I had a pet Unicorn, I would do many things with it. I would take care of its emotions, play with it, sing lullabies to it for it to sleep, feed it magic apples, and if I didn’t really care for it, I would let it run free and live a wondrous life. And it would live happily ever after. The End. I hope you liked the story of what I would do if I had a pet Unicorn. Oh, and the Unicorn’s name would be Magic because Unicorns are magical when you meet one. Again, I hope you enjoyed this blog about what I would do with a pet Unicorn/Magic. Goodbye!
I’m still thinking of my new genius hour project. The theme is the future. I think I’m going to do another fashion thing again. I’m petty shore that I am going to sketch cloths from the future. I’m so excited it is going so much fun! I now so because last time it was so much fun”J For example the shorts will have lightning bolts with a striped top. And a silver metal dress and bronze, gold it is going to be so awesome and other bright colors for example pink and orange. And of course a silver dress with hearts and a t-shirt with hearts. And I am going to make it a book. My favorite part last time was deigning the cloth and I think it is going to be my favorite this time! I hope everybody likes it last time everybody liked it so I am petty shore everybody will like it. And if you don’t like fashion you should not be reading this you should have known a long time ago. Thank you for reading my blog I will put pictures up but now it is time for you to read somebody else’s blog.
Hi I’m Savanah Mr. Farnums class is doing what if Wednesday and that is where you get to like pick out a nickname or what color hair would you have so it’s just what would you like to change about yourself and we all wrote 10 what ifs and so we had a lot of them. Mr.Farnum put them all in a red bag and on that day on Wednesday Mr. Farnum was just having fun and pulling them out and reading some to us they were fun. So the week after that Wednesday we came in and at meeting he pulled out one and it was if you could marry Elsa but everybody but the one who wrote it everybody felt uncomfortable so he pulled out a other one and it was what if you could have a pet unicorn so he let us chose and I did a poster and said three things of what I would do with my pet unicorn and if I had a pet unicorn. So that’s what my what if was and it was all very fun and everybody liked it and I like what if Wednesday and everybody likes it too.
Hi! I am Pip! and I am going to tell you about what if Wednesday. What if Wednesday is when you say what if we can do this or that. This Wednesday was what if you could change your name to anything.. Other people did silly things that didn’t really go with their personality like blueberry and some did really long ones. There is one person that picked the longest one in the class. She picked pink fluffy unicorns dancing on rainbows. I picked one that belonged with my personality. I picked OLAF THE KING OF CINNAMON BUNS! I will tell you why I picked this name. I picked Olaf the king because I absolutely love Olaf and I like bossing people around a little bit. This Olaf is from frozen. I picked of cinnamon buns because I love cinnamon buns and I am sure that they would love to be ruled by me. Well, at least if I don’t eat them. Hopefully I don’t eat them or get in a trance to eat them. Also since I am the ruler of the kingdom I will let Olaf’s little brother from Frozen Fever because they all live in Elsa’s big ice castle right now with marshmallow [ the big snowman dude that protected Elsa when she was scared]. Also they have the messed up room from when the duke of westletown’s men tried to kill Elsa and when they sadly captured her. That is why I would let all the little snowman and Olaf live in my kingdom. The kingdom would be called THE LAND OF BUNS AND OLAF AND HIS TINY LITTLE BROTHERS! And you know why because Olaf would live there and his little brothers and full of a bunch of cinnamon buns. I don’t know how I am going to remember all the cinnamon buns names and all the little snowmen’s names and I don’t know how I am going to name them all. Well I am sure I will find a way… maybe.
THE END!!!!!!!! What if Wednesday is what if you had a pet unicorn. Here is my story about my pet unicorn. One day there was an alien walking through the woods. The alien's name was Cola, and he started hearing a sound like this: neeeeeee. Cola followed the sound and then he found what was making the noise. It was a unicorn sinking in quicksand. Cola tried pulling the unicorn, but he only got him out a little. He stayed for 4 hours, and then he finally got him out of the quicksand. The unicorn was still making the neeeeeee sound, but then he realized that the unicorn had a broken leg. He took him to a veterinarian, Cola tried to get him in there, but they did not believe him. They said unicorns are not real, so he let the unicorn heal his leg for 2 years. On Cola's 14th birthday, the unicorn's leg was healed. Cola said this is the best birthday present! Cola fed him daily for five days. The unicorn kept growing and growing, until one day the unicorn was too big for Cola's house. He had no choice but to let the unicorn go, so the next day Cola let him go. The unicorn ran off back into the woods, and Cola never saw him again.
