News- World's Information

Students should stay in touch with the news all around the world everyday as it is important to be on familiar terms with the news. How can you stay in touch with the news? We can be able to have the world’s information on our hands in the course of reading the newspaper which is distributed to students in the morning or watching the news or even surfing on the internet.

Firstly, let’s blog on reading the newspaper. Reading the newspaper is one of the most effective ways as it is easy and convenient to attain news. It is an anytime, anywhere and any day information collector. Enter a public place and you’re able to see people reading or viewing the “freshly baked” newspapers at the newspaper stand. One of the disadvantages of reading the newspaper is that when people have finished viewing the newspaper, they throw the newspaper on the floor and they leave. Where is the clean and green country? Newspaper, in my opinion, ranks 2nd!
Next, let’s say in relation to watching the news. Watching the news is the most relaxing way to attain news and information. Lying on the sofa and watching the news can be the best way to attain news. Only disadvantage of watching the news is that there is a time limit and is unable to show all the information and news. They are even advertisement so the time will even be shortened. In my opinion, watching the news is ranked 3rd.

Lastly, the best way in my opinion which is surfing the internet. It is the best as it is convenient and the easiest way to obtain news. Fast and quick, the whole world’s information is in your hand in a matter of clicks away.

H1N1 Guidelines

H1N1 is globalizing the whole world and is now a pandemic which have “murdered” estimated 3000 people. Here are some tips that can enable students to stay healthy and fit. First check your temperature every day before coming to school or heading out for lessons or shopping. Having a fever or a temperature of 37.6 and above? Rest at home or else wear a mask if it is compulsory to head out.
Next, wash your hands before you have your breakfast, lunch, dinner or even supper. Washing your hand will decrease the chances of germs living and thus, your hands will be cleaner. You can also apply soap so as to destroy the bacteria and germs. You can now have your dinner, breakfast, supper and lunch comfortably without worrying of the germs and bacteria on your hands.
You can also do your part even if you have H1N1! Wear a surgical mask to the nearest pandemic prepared clinic or else rest at home. Don’t know the venue of the nearest clinic? Message “Clinic” to 70550 and they will reply you the address of the nearest clinic. If you have difficulties breathing or else having chest pains, call 995 to look for an appointment.
You can also sneeze into a handkerchief or also cough into it. Do not cough or sneeze directly into the air as it will release bacteria and germs and affect others into spreading the virus.
These are some of the tips that I hope to share with my fellow students. Anyway, please take care of yourself!

Home Learning

I feel that Home Learning is more effective than Learning in School. Why?Although I feel that there are both advantages and disadvantages studying at home and studying at school, most students will obviously choose studying at home like myself!

Firstly, I will show the advantages of studying at School. When you're at School, there will be teachers teaching you how to excel in work. If a Student does not know how to do his work, he is able to consult the teacher into how to finish his work or solve his difficulties. Obviously, this will be the best way and the most straightforward way.Another advantage is that you're able to interact with your friends in school. Friends are rather important as everyone understands. Someone who doesn't interact with his or her friends will dread the fact that they are heading for school. They will feel that school seems like a hell for them and they will feel it is a waste of time. Compare it with someone who have lots of friends, they will obviously feel School is like their 2nd home. The student will have better results and also they can train their social skills.

Now, I will list the advantages of studying at home. At Home, you're able to have the Internet as your friend as it will have lots of information that your friends does not know. Type a question and it will show lots of answers. We are also able to voice out our ideas and we are also able to have discussions which are rarely seen in classes.We are still able to chat with our friends, using Msn Messenger, Gmail, Yahoo, Facebook or others.Home Learning is also faster so if we are late or slow in our studies in school, we are able to catch up with the schedule of learning.As you can see, the advantages of studying at home is more than studying at school.
Now, the Disadvantages of Studying at home... Some of us are technically dummies who are not really good in their computer skills so they will certainly lose out. Our results will then drop which is rather important.We are also at risk to internet strangers who are waiting to pounce on you when you're weak.

Conclusion is that I still wish that Home Learning is everyday even if it is on the weekends as I feel that it is more challenging and also fun.Still able to communicate with our friends and catch up with work.... Why Not?
