Ive searched many websites and only a couple provide great information. One is pbs.org, it has primary sources and other things like videos even pictures. The website also provides a timeline of the Vietnam War, even before America commited to a ground force. I will use this site to explain how the soldiers felt about the war and the timeline that followed.

The other site is called historyplace.com, it provides almost the same thing pbs.org does, but it provides a more detailed timeline. I'll use it basisly the same way I'm using pbs.org, the only difference is the timeline details.

Second Anno.
This source is a great picture website, it has picture of the war and protesters in American, known as "Hippies". I can use the pictures to show the silent protesting by soldiers in Vietnam. There is a picture of a soldier carrying a guitar and a M-16 assault rifle. Its in black and white and the soldier is not facing the camera, he is looking off to the distances.
This website's picture are primary sources and secondary sources.

The Binoculars (Sci Service Learning)
• What are three big issues that create problems that our service is trying to address?
The three issues are: pollution hazards, the affects of pollution on humans, and the effects of pollution on the planet.
• What else could be done to change the situation:
o Locally people can stop pollution by taking the bus instead of driving or even using Hybrid vehicles. People can even clean up their neighborhood.
o Nationally people can stop throwing away products that can be recycled and used for other things.
o Internationally countries can research more evironment friendly forms of energy, like Solar power or nuclear power.
• How will service learning change your future behaviors/attitudes/and career? In my future career I will be more concerned with the health of my world, than myself. Instead of using products that effect my environment, I'll buy products that help my environment. Like using bottles that have alot of plastic in them or recycle my aluminium cans and containers
• How is the issue/agency you're serving impacted by what is going on in the larger political/social sphere? Pollution is a big topic in the government and whoever is the president will decide whether Americans will stop contributing to CO2 omissions. Global Warming is one the most talked issue in the world, for it effects everyone on the planet, even the animals.

Service Learning
This week for service learning we grouped up in another group. We are now also researching Fire Detectors and are making a commercial to explain to reasons why to have Fire Detectors. Me and Nassir Williams are making the commercial and have alright started getting clips to put in it. The clips are of flaming houses and children in their beds, the children clips are for dramatic effect.
