Ben commented on the post, The History Of Life Academy
Erick,
Great piece. What you said in the first paragraph was surprising to me (about the small and poor area schools). I’ve never heard of anything like this before. I feel like the nicer schools are being made in nice neighbor hoods and old schools aren’t getting the funding they need to stay up to date. This article…Read More -

Good afternoon Strom,
Your article brought showed me how disturbing pillows can actually be. I don’t think I can sleep with a feather pillow again knowing what I know now and I will do everything I can to be conscious of what I purchase and consume. This link (https://www.ciwf.com/farmed-animals/) is about other animals being mistreated and…Read More -

Ben commented on the post, College is getting too pricey
Alex, I completely agree with your post. As a high school senior, I have been stressed out about paying for college and have been looking for ways to pay for college. I wish it were cheaper :(. I found this link (https://vittana.org/19-should-college-be-free-pros-and-cons) talking about the pros and cons of free college. Thanks! Have a great…Read More

Hey, Ben!
I liked your post and thought it was well written and clearly explained what is happening in Australia. I liked the part where you talked about why some brush fires are started in your first paragraph. Here is a website I found that talks about more reasons why the fires were started.

Hi Ben,
I thought this post did a great job on educating people about the wildfires. The part about affecting ecosystems as well as humans was interesting. Here is an article I found about the topic. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-australia-bushfires/australian-bushfires-fires-hit-coal-output-conditions-to-worsen-idUSKBN1ZJ2CS

This is a pretty solid argument, especially the part where you said “…therefore, pulling video games into conversations about white criminals may be using the games as a baseless excuse”. It reminds me of when people blamed the Columbine Shooting on Eminem.

I like the way your article flowed from one topic/citation to the next. This is a topic that is widely joked about by kids of our generation, however I think your well written article makes quite a few good points on something that is rarely spoken about from our generation. Your use of citations contradicting your argument was intriguing and helped you strongly validate your argument.

Sophia,
Way to write an interesting article. I never knew what a Keto diet was before and you really opened my eyes to that lifestyle. This article I found (https://health.usnews.com/wellness/food/articles/mediterranean-vs-keto) talks about the differences in diets both in the Mediterranean way of eating and the keto diet and the pros and cons of both -

Hello Matthew,
I really enjoyed reading your article and learning more about such a prevalent topic in today’s world. I found this article about the people who qualify for medical marijuana in Utah to be helpful and also relatable because we live in Utah! https://www.marijuanadoctors.com/medical-marijuana/ut/qualification/ Have a great night!Ben

Hi Ben,
I agree with the points you made in the post. The benefits heavily outweigh the risks, and something every parent should do. Here is an interesting article that relates to your post on why vaccines should be given. (https://www.nfid.org/immunization/10-reasons-to-get-vaccinated/)
Thanks,

Hey Ben!
I liked the last sentence of the second paragraph because it makes the claim that not vaccinating your kids is more dangerous. I can understand why parents have concerns about the vaccines, but their only concern should be about the health of their child when they go to school without the flu shot. Here is an article you might find interesting. https://www.publichealth.org/public-awareness/understanding-vaccines/vaccine-myths-debunked/
Cheers,

Hey Ben!
I never knew that music had that kind of impact when working. I would have thought that music is a distraction.
Here is an article about how music helps people focus.
