teen pregnancy

Teen mothers more often give birth prematurely, that is, prior to 37 weeks, and premature babies face increased risks for health problems, both short- and long-term. Among these are problems with vision, cognition, the the baby’s respiratory and digestive systems. The babies of teen mothers are also at higher risk for low-birth-weight. Low- birth-weight may or may not be due to prematurity.

What I thought of the MINI GAME WEBEX




The day that we started the MINI GAME WEBEX,I thought that it was going to be pretty easy,but when we got to the MINI GAME WEBEX,it was really hard to follow because some of the students were talking and they were playing around and that made it hard for me to follow when she was explaining how to do it.The Webex was really helpful because that shows how much we need to pay attention when something is explained and that can affect us with our Technology grade because if we don't listen what she says or we are doing it wrong,then that could affect our grade and that could cause it with a B or a C and we really want to raise it up,so we can get the A and B honor roll and then we will go where we could have fun and have good food.Although Maredith's voice wasn't that loud I got some of the information that I needed for me to understand the MINI GAME WEBEX.I think that with the FLASH I did pretty well because the information that I got was the important thing.I was really getting used to with the codes,but some of them are really hard to find in the WIKI I didn't understand the last part of the game,but I have to read it again,so I can get the idea of what is it that it's talking about.I really get the idea of the other codes because they are easy to understand.I think that the most important things in the game are:To put the codes in.I really feel that I really get it more and more when I practice with it or when we go to it.

How I feel about FLASH


I feel that FLASH is really good practice and I do like that we are working more in Flash because we used to have free time,but we are starting to work more than to play games.We are actually going back to the steps if we understand how it works if we memorized it.It's going pretty well,I mean the class is really far from the steps and it seems that some of it we really did memorized it.Flash is a really good website because you can practice on how your game is going to look like and that can help you with your game by doing different things with it.Though that some people are having a little trouble working with the steps they still get the idea a little bit.Although the steps are easy to follow and it's nothing to be stressing about.It really makes me feel proud of myself because I haven't worked in Flash because when I first saw Flash,I didn't even know what to do,but now that I know more about Flash,I'm not that confused no more.If we were to do our game without Flash our game will never work and we wont know how it is used or our game wont make any sense because we didn't use the Flash,but since we did use it,we know more and more how our game will be like.The thing that I don't like about Flash is,to put all those codes for our carrot and our bunny to move,but if you do that,it will make more sense and you wont struggle with your bunny and carrot.I think that Flash is the best website for students to work with!

My game idea


Well,my social issue is Education,my game topic is Teen Pregnancy,and my Math Objective is 6.Well,since I'm doing Teen Pregnancy,my goal in the game is to,not to get the other people to be a teen parent at an early age.There's going to be like problems that have to do with the Objective number 6 and you know that Objective 6 is about the processes that you will have to choose like multiplication,division,subtraction,or addition.There's going to be your character and your friends that will have to help you like put signs and give them to the other people.The mission is basically preventing Teen Pregnancy because you know that some people get pregnant at an early age,well,my game is preventing Teen Pregnancy,so the others don't get pregnant at an early age.They should play my game because if you play it then you might not be a teen parent and you know the consequences being a teen parent because if you get to be one,then you and the other mate that you have,will have to take care of that child.That's why I want them to play my game,so they could know the consequences being a teen parent at an early age.I want the players to learn the purpose of the game which is what are the consequences for being a teen parent and to not get in the way with Teen Pregnancy because when you get pregnant at that early age you can't go to college and finish school and you wont have a career that you would love to have,so that's what I want the players to learn.I chose this topic because Teen Pregnancy does have to do with Education you know that some students have to drop school because they are now going to take care of that child for the mate to not do it all by herself or himself.It will also you show you why don't get pregnant at an early age cause you wont finish your Education in school,so it's just basically showing you the consequences of not to get pregnant at an early age.
