Expectations for Computer Usage:
- 1. Be on task at all times. No applications other than the one we are working in should be open.
- 2. Be attentive. Listen to what Mrs. Pack is saying and watch what she is doing on the LCD projector during instruction. Begin the assignment when she tells you to do so.
- 3. Be a hard worker. Use your time wisely and remember that work will be easier with Mrs. Pack and your fellow students to help you when you need it.
- 4. Be proactive. Before you ask Mrs. Pack a technical question, you must first check with two other students closest to you to see if they know the answer.
- 5. Be fully charged. You are responsible for making sure that your computer is charged and ready for use each day.
Things You Can Do to Ace the CST
- 1. Get plenty of sleep the night before each day of the test.
- 2. Have breakfast the day of the test. Food = Brain Power
- 3. Take your time on the test, and read each question carefully.
- 4. Look for keywords and vocabulary you know in each question and the answer choices provided.
- 5. Use process of elimination to get rid of the answers that are definitely wrong.
- 6. Highlight or underline important points (main ideas) in each selection.
- 7. Check your test number and bubble in the correct number carefully when you are told to do so.
- 8. Be careful when you bubble in your answers - don't lose track of where you want to bubble!
- 9. Only answer the amount of questions you are told to complete on a given day.
- 10. Do not talk or distract others during the test. TREAT OTHERS THE WAY YOU WANT TO BE TREATED.
- 11. Read each selection carefully, and read the questions before you begin reading the selection.
- 12. Read each poem on the test at least twice. Try to "translate" each line so you can figure out what the author is trying to say.
- 13. If you start to get nervous, breathe deeply a couple of times to calm down.

I think that the muslims will choose a leader among them selves. They will choose the one who believes the most in Muhammad religion. The person who is chosen might be a strong believer or relative.
they either have to figure out a way to keep their religion alive without him, or go by a new religion. They will probably stop worshipping and think that there is no more reason to live. They may starve theirselves or maybe even commit suicide. One person will help them believe again. That person will be their hero.
They might have to find a new leader and if they don't they might be attacked. The people probabliy don't know whereto go next.
I think that the agriculture will go really low and so will the taxes. I think that its going to be really hard for them to raise money.

After the death of that the two little children might try to bring it back. The might spread that idea to other people and then they will choose someone to lead them. This might become a big culture that thousand become part of.
I think that the community will keep going. But it will have to face a lot of difficulties. Also it will turn out to be a religion that people will believe in. And people today will still believe in Muhammad's teachings. Thats what i believe.
I think that they might fight over who's going to be the new leader. I think that because lots of people would want to be leader because you would be able to change things and do mostly what you want.
I think that the religion will eventually fall apart. If Muhammad was the only one who tought them that how would they know how to teach it. Muhammad was a person who tought about the religion. It will eventually fall apart.
I think that they will pick a new prophet and they will move on. I also think that the religon will fall. Then the religon will never be spoken of again

I think that the people will try to carry out the religion .Then it will fall apart and they will start trying to make themselves prophets. Hopefully someone will step in and fix the mistakes.
The Muslim community might struggle without Muhammad. Maybe the Muslims don't know what to do with Muhammad. They could not know how to even travel. Or maybe how to survive with Muhammad. It would be very unpleasent without Muhammad.

I think that the Muslim religion will fall. Then someone new will come into their religion and take over. Also that when that someone takes over they would have to do things differently then there are used to. I think that will cause the people to become unhappy and they wouldn't want to practice this religion.
After the death of Muhammad the religion will choose a new leader that would be good for them, also they will be chosen if they believe in the same religion, and be strong
I think that they will maybe they will lose every thing. They will maybe have to start all over with there Musim community. I think they will try hared to be with there religion.
I think that some one will take his place and teach others of his teachings.I think this will happen because he tought so many people abought it. I also think that because it is still a prety big religion today. Also because sense he tought so many people that if no one takes over the relgion would be a complete faliur. That is what I think might happen.

Hey guys! I accidentally stumbled upon this page.. and read your comments. I couldn't understand what this chat is about, but since your talking about our Prophet Muhammad, I want you all to understand that his death doesn't end the teachings that God sent down on us.
On the contrary, Muhammad taught the world every aspect of a free and just society, just as all Prophets did, including Jesus. As messengers of God, their main message to humanity (From God) was for us to bear witness that there is nothing worthy of worship except Almighty God, and that they are His messenger.
What's special about this last message from God, is that He honored us with the last Prophet and last Holy Book, famously known as the Qur'an. Muhammad taught us how to teach this message to the generations to come. God promises in His book that the true religion is Islam and that it's people will be the true successors of this life and the afterlife.
Islam is the truth, and the truth will ultimately prevail. I invite you all to learn more about this beautiful religion, about God's message to us..
