What is going on in English class?


Hey fellow bloggers, this week in English class we started working on the final conclusions for our Spring Inquiry project. My group has been split into three different mini groups, so that we can present effectively and creatively. For the presentation portion our three groups consist of the second period group; Jackie, Serena, and myself, then there is the third period group; Jackie and Julia, and the fifth period group; Shanynthia and myself. The reason that we have decided to split up the group was because we wanted to have diverse conclusions and focus on different aspects of the very controversial inquiry question of "why we are attracted to what we are attracted to/why we love/ and who is Mr. Right and how can single women find him? The second period group has also decided to try the dating advice research on an actual person aka my wonderful government teacher Eli Cameron. For about 4 months now my group has been reading several dating advice books to help see how people are attracted to each other, and to see how match making experts would advise single individuals. Because of all of our recent knowledge we wanted to see if it really worked, so we ask our wonderful government teacher Eli Cameron to be a Guinea pig to see if the advice is actually conclusive. For this experiment the group will first see Eli's current dating process regarding all aspects like how he approaches a woman. how he starts the conversation, and how he arranges for a first date. Then we are going to see how Eli is on a first date, including his behavior, what he talks about, and how he responds to his dates information. After we have specifically interviewed Eli to see how he currently dates we are going to put him through a dating boot camp. In this dating boot camp Jackie, Serena, and I will advise Eli on what a woman really likes. Because most of our books we woman dating advise books we are going to advise Eli on what women are being told to do, so that he is aware of the woman's behavior through out the date. After dating boot camp Eli will use his newly found dating knowledge with speed dating. Therefore Eli will have multiple trails on giving the woman the right first impression. Although this sounds like the perfect plan for our project we still need to find a speed dating place for Eli. Most of the places that we have called have said that Eli is just too young. Which bothers me because can't young people me looking for love too? Anyways, after our project planned the visual/media abstract for our presentation we called tons of dating experts, so our group could have a professional expert's advise within the abstract. After calling over 30 different love coaches, marriage counselors, and match makers, our group finally found a match maker that was willing to give us an interview. The interview was perfect and now I feel like we have a true professional opinion within our project.
