Current Events QTR 2 Week 5:Hunger grows in the heartland

In Moberly, as in many school districts, free or reduced-priced breakfasts and lunches are served during the week to children whose families don't have a lot of money. But school officials in Moberly had noticed that some children were coming to school hungry on Monday mornings. There hadn't been enough food in their homes to feed them on Saturdays and Sundays or the parents, for whatever reason, had not been around to prepare meals.Last year about 106 children needed there backpacks full of donated food to make it through the weekends. 

In my opinion, parents should be there to feed kids. If students are not getting food at home but coming to school with excuses isn't right. Parents should be able to feed them and take care of there health. I can understand at school since kids get free lunch and breakfest. The kids need to speak up to there parents. 

Current Events QTR 2 Week 3: How cell phones have changed our lives

Summary:
Yes, cell phones can be distracting, annoying, trivial and frustrating. Yes, they generally offer poorer quality less reliable voice call connections compared to land lines. Yes, they can be an attention-absorbing cloak that people hide behind to isolate themselves from the people around them. But cell phones also now provide vital services and human connections. They connect people in dire need with services that can change their lives and offer new hope even through simple broadcast text messages.
Opinion:

In my opinion, yes, i think cell phones have changed the way we think. Also our cells may phones may help us when we are in danger like we get in a car accident or something pops up. And the  way we act, us people are growing a part because of cell phones. We think diffrent and explore less forget to see what teh world really is. In my opinion phones have changed the world.
