Research Assignment

Hey guys!

So sorry to post this so late but we had a few issues with the website and we just barely got it working again.

Here is the video which you have to watch and write at least 5 questions that you can ask someone about the video.

Please turn in your questions by Friday. Remember that if you don't do this, we will not be able to do the documentary to show at the end of the year.

Pretend you were interviewing someone that had just watch the video and you wanted to make sure they paid attention during the video.

See you this Friday,
Jess

California's Future High-Speed Rail System

California is leading the way in the countries first high-speed rail system! This is great information to know! Advancements like such will only help improve environmental conditions! CHECK OUT THIS GREAT VIDEO!!

New trees for our local park! I was a little late..but I was able to take a few pictures of the event. The Environmental Club should participate in events like such. What do you guys think...perhaps a potential idea for future meetings.  

Hi, everyone!

The City of Oceanside will be hosting an Arbor Day Ceremony and 
Environmental Resource Fair on Thursday, September 12, from 10:00 am - 2:00 pm. I know most of you guys will not be able to make it because it is during school hours, but...I just want you to be informed. Knowing about such events is important for Environmental Club members! I know it is a little late, but I encourage you to share this information with friends, teachers, family (Mom & Dad), and others whom might be interested! Tell them to go! I will try my best to attend the event and perhaps take a few pictures to share!  

Cheers,
Alfonso Gomez

Hello, everyone-

Hope this year has started off great for all! I (Alfonso) am quite sad that I will not be able to meet you guys on Friday meetings! But I will try my best to help around in ANY way possible! For example...posting information on this blog page, which I find a little difficult to use...but also AWESOME because I can still communicate with the club. 

I believe Jessica and Esperanza have shared the new ideas for this year. One of the things the club needs more of is: Club/Friend/Family/Community bonding. Creating a family-like feeling/sense with one another and becoming well connected with our club members will only strengthen the club. 

One way we can do this is by communicating with the entire group...maybe presenting yourself to the club and sharing your values, your favorite class, or your intended career. Making the club a family will make Friday meetings more enjoyable and could potentially attract more students.    

Hope to visit the club soon!

Cheers,

Alfonso Gomez
