Duck Season Remix
Questions:
In this
project my audience will be mainly pointed to people who are looking duck
hunting
guides in Louisiana. I choose this audience by turning my blog about
duck season into an ad for
people who want to go duck hunting for a good price
and for people who have never been ducking
hunting for them to get the
experience. My original piece was about my duck season I had this year,
and it
just talked about how many ducks we shot this year, and just about some amazing
hunts I
had with some friends.
The audience
needs to know that they have to contact me a month before duck season starts
so
we have set up a date and time for the hunt and the pay. I am communicating
with people that
hunter of any type and outdoor enthusiast.

Blog Post “Duck Season”
Welcome to Landon’s Duck Hunting Experience Tour ad. Hi I am Landon Foster and I
am a duck hunter tour guide in Pecan Island, Louisiana. If you are looking for an amazing duck hunt I
am the one to talk to. Ever since I have started this business each year we kill approximately 600
ducks. This is an extreme high in Louisiana. My land is best known as the “Kill Zone”. We kill the
most ducks, and have the second largest land. I do have some rules and requirements if you
schedule a hunt you must have a hunting license, and must have experience with a shotgun. I have a
total of 9 hunting blinds which can hold 2-3 people, and three mud boats that can hold 6 people in
each boat.

We wake up at around 4:00am and leave at 4:30am. So make sure to get some sleep in our nice 3 bedroom trailer, with 9 beds, 2 bathrooms, a living room, and a mud room that keeps your shotguns, boots, waiters, gun bags, and shotgun shells, and a kitchen. Every day of your hunt there will be a little breakfast before the hunt and after a big breakfast filled with bacon, biscuits, eggs, sausages, pancakes, orange juice, milk or chocolate milk, and a small lunch, but a dinner time I will cook up either, steaks, hamburgers and hotdogs, or go down into Abbeville, LA to a fine seafood restaurant called Shucks.
Pricing will be $45 per person and $150 per hunt and children 10 and under are free. But for an extra $35 I will take your group on a fishing trip after the hunt to Rockefeller Wildlife and Fishier lands to catch some red fish and speckled trout or go crabbing.
So if you want to have a wonderful duck hunt and fishing, with amazing food and meet new people call me at 1-800-1234-ducks.

Hits and Misses
The thing I enjoyed most this year is the poetry and specifically the blog post when we had to write our own poem and I wrote about Hurricanes. I thought that was a hit because a lot of people enjoyed it and it was fun to do. Another hit I thought was good was the WRAP test we did in class because I love to see what the topics and this one this year I thought I did really well. I really went in depth with that topic.

Plagiarism
If somebody plagiarises just shows me that they are lazy, a liar, and a cheater. It just sickens me to see this person do that. Especially Jane Goodall and even her last name has the word good in it which is pretty ironic because she did a bad thing. Her picture in the article makes her look like a sweet old lady. Some details that make the situation more serious is that she didn't just copy a few of the same words from another source than her own words she copied entire paragraphs of other websites. Later in the article she talks about how sorry she is that the sources of her work were not properly cited but I think she knew she was plagiarizing and she didn't care were she got her information from she only cared that she got it with out using her own words.
I really think that the co-author should have said something to her, and tell her that this is not right what you are doing, and give the credit to the people you got it from. But we don't know if the publisher and the co-author knew what she was doing or they did but they just wanted the money from the selling of the books. Plagiarism is extremely wrong to do, it shows signs of weakness, and laziness, and cheating. So nobody should ever do it.

Poem #2
The think that I want is to go to any college I want and get a good education, to have fun and to have a bright future after college. I would have to do a lot of things to accomplish that but I think it can and will be done.
To get into any college I want I will have to do a lot of things. One big thing is that I need to have good grades, not like a couple Bs or Cs but As with maybe one B. That us a big part that the colleges look at and semester and final exams. But to do this I will need to study, not get carried away with phones or friends but I mean hanging out with friends is alright. It is a way to take a break from school work. Some other things is that I need to ask for help if I need or even if I don't need it. Because this first year of high school I never really did know how much teachers helped like at tutorial. At my old school you just go to class,take some notes, a small lecture, and later that day you couldn't go back for help because we had no time during school. So I learned that the hard way. Now they are a huge help to me. And hopefully if I do all of this I will get into any college I apply to.
