      An editorial is an article that gives someone's opinion on something. Most of my teachers have told me not to use Wikipedia. A lot of my teachers do not want me using Wikipedia. i have asked them why they do not like the page. Their usual answer about it is  that it is a page that can be inaccurate. They say that anyone who has an account on Wikipedia can change the information.
       This article did not change my opinion towards Wikipedia. I still think you should not use this website for information. Anyone can change the information. unless you are not using this for "fun" reasons then it should not be used.  You could probably end up getting a bad grade so its better to be safe than sorry

        Before I even started Spanish i knew it was going to be amazing. Mrs. Daniele is very nice and is a great teacher. The way she teaches helps the students understand the language more. She explains the material so it is easier for the students to learn.
        I have learned multiple things this year. One including the numbers one through one hundred. I have also learned to conjugate verbs like: ir verbs, ar verbs, and er verbs. Another thing i have learned are basic questions like may i go to the bathroom, my locker, or to the office.
        Mrs. Daniele grading system is pretty basic. Test are 25%,  quizzes are 15%, formative assessments are 25%,  informal assessments are 15%, Class work and participation is 10%, and homework is 10%. If you pay attention in this class you can get good grades. Spanish class is not that hard to pass. Also as long as you behave well in this class you will have a good class grade.
          In this class technology is used once in a while. Sometimes we may watch a movie. Every Friday we have an assignment due about a famous Hispanic and you have to look up information about them in the computer. Other than that we don't do anything else related to technology.
