Key Terms

As I have been giving you an update on what I have been doing, I have noticed some words that I think you would be interested in knowing the correct terms for. Some of these words you may already know, but a lot of them I was really interested in.

Creating my Collage

I started looking up pictures that had something to do with my topic. I found a lot of pictures that had to do with "crips" and "bloods", "guns", "victims", and "peace". The images that I chose all had something to do with Street Violence. Most of them show how the street violence is increasing and some of them show how people are trying to stop the violence. Either way I hope you understand the message that I am trying to get across.

Week 2

It is now week two of my research on Street Violence. So far I have not found much but the little that I have found has become useful. As I been researching I noticed that some of the websites that I looked up were not giving me enough information, so I started to get more descriptive. Once I did that I started to find more information about my topic.

First-time Blogging

Recently I have heard a lot of talk about Graduation Projects at City High. I know some of the requirements but not all. I dont know a lot of the seniors now or the previous seniors so I am not able to provide any examples of what I have seen. I would like for my project to be on Street Violence in Pittsburgh. I have been doing research on this topic since the 9th grade, so I would like to continue that research. Since I have been working on this topic for a while now, I think my concerns about this project are limited. I feel very confident about my topic so as I continue my research I will make sure to give an update on how its going.
