The topic of my article is about if students should start school later due to lack of sleep. The title of my article is “Experts say start school later, but it’s not that easy”. My article is from KLTV or here. Experts say to start school at a later time due to the lack of sleep students get. They say to go to bed sooner but it isn’t as simple as it sounds. Many students are involved in sports activities and don’t get get home until a late time, and usually have homework. This pushes back going to bed and getting less sleep. Not receiving enough sleep causes depression and health effects. Should schools start at a later time? I can relate to the students who are involved in sports and who arrive home late. It’s a lot to juggle when you have homework after you just played a game or ran track and be back at school early the next day. I agree with the experts! I feel students should start school at a later time so we can get more rest. Since I am a student this event affects me greatly. I understand where the experts are coming from! This issue affects because I am involved in sports and I do get home late after a meet. I usually have homework and have to stay up late to finish it. Then next thing I know is that I’m getting up at 6:00 a.m to get ready for school. This impacts the world in many ways. Parents usually drop their kids off at school while they’re on their way to work. If school times get moved back the parents will either be late to work, have them walk to school, or have to sign their child up to ride a bus. Students would most likely improve in school because they are not struggling to stay awake. Just a little extra time could help many students across the nation understand their work a bit more.

The topic of my article is that a boy is able to walk again. The title of my article is called “East Texas boy getting a chance to finally walk”. My article is from KLTV or here. A boy named Ethan was born with arthrogryposis. He had always wanted to be a “normal” kid. Ethan had the opportunity to get his legs amputated and have prosthetic legs. After a while, Ethan had decided he would go through with the surgery. Now Ethan can be able to play and jump around with the other kids like he had always dreamed to. Having a great offer like Ethan did is an amazing thing. Now I know others can have such a life changing opportunity to be themselves and run around like the others kids. I feel happy knowing Ethan can live the “normal” life he has always wanted. This event affects me because I want to become a physical therapist or assistant for children. I love seeing kids light up having opportunities like this. Helping kids like Ethan make the job worth it. Now I can help them get to where they need to be. I can say this makes me feel grateful. Having prosthetics like these impact the world greatly. This allows people to become capable of doing things they always wanted to. A surgery isn’t always easy. Ethan showed me how strong he really is. I’m more than happy for people to have opportunities like these, and live their life the way they want.

 

The topic of my article is about Indian artifacts The title of my article is called “Gregg County Historical Museum features objects up to 12,000 years old”. My article is from KLTV news or here. The article is about old indian artifacts found in the basement the Gregg County Museum. These old pieces were donated by Buddy Calvin Jones. He is from east Texas and graduated from Pine Tree. He found most of his collections as a boy and started logging what he found. Now people today can enjoy his finds from the past. I think it’s important for the museum to continue to add older items and information so we can learn from them. I think it’s a great opportunity for people to learn about some of the history in East Texas. This display at the museum gives me the chance to appreciate the older artifacts. Now I can see how people lived in the past. My grandpa enjoys history and knows many things about the indians. I can ask him questions and learn about East Texas from different points of view. Many people enjoy studying history and someday I can look back and remember what I learned. This impacts the world by preserving our native history. It’s important for each generation to learn from the past. Artifacts made then, compared to some things made today are totally different. One man made such a huge impact by just collecting arrowheads! Imagine what we can do today if we preserve our history.

Brief article summary:

With weather changing from hot and dry to cooler weather means mosquitos are out for blood. This means mosquitos are out more often and want to eat. In East Texas the two most common mosquitoes may carry diseases, such as; Chikungunya or West Nile Virus. Try to avoid the times mosquitos are out and have protection to drive them away.

Take a position on the issue contained in this article.

I agree that people should take steps to protect themselves from mosquitoes.

How do you feel about this event?

I now feel more aware about this issue and I’m definitely more cautious for when I go outside.

How does this event affect you?

It affects me because East Texas is where I live. I don’t want to get bitten by mosquitos that could carry a disease. It’s very important to me that others and myself stay aware that we could be bitten by mosquitoes that may have a disease. Now I know that being bit by a mosquito carrying West Nile Virus or Chikungunya is a possibility. I can now tell others about this issue and warn them also.

How does this impact the world?

This impacts the world in many ways. One impact is that it could start in East Texas. Mosquitos travel and could start a outbreak somewhere else. If somebody gets bitten it could put them in critical condition. If this issue affects just one person it could affect many others.
