Chapter One: The Blog.
"So everyone, we're starting a new assignment!"
Sokka moaned, he was staring out the window. The bell had just rung to signal the start of English class. Sokka's desk was situated at the back of the room, he had better things to do than pay attention in this class.
"Everyone-," The teacher looked at Sokka when he said this, "-Everyone must come up with an idea for their individual blogs!"
Most of the boys groaned. The girls excitedly started discussing their ideas. Katara was one of them, sitting up at the front of the class eagerly talking to Ty Lee. Sokka had been kept back a year, now he was stuck in a class with a bunch of 14 year olds. He wasn't the only one, Zuko, Jet and Haru had also been kept back. They were more interested in sports or creating trouble.
"Mr. Cotter?" Katara stuck her hand in the air.
"Yes Katara,"
"Can we work in groups?" She asked eagerly.
"Of coarse you can, everyone must work in a group of four, but everyone needs to create their own blogs!"
The class immediately broke into excited whispers, people trying to make groups of four so they wouldnt be stuck with the less-than-desirable people. Katara and her friends had already rushed to join a group. Her, Yue, Ty Lee, and Suki.
Goody two shoes.
He had to admit though, Kataras friends were rather hot.
"If anyone disrupts the class I'll place them in another group, so choose wisely," Sokka was sure had just glared at him. He hated , he had kept him back a year due to the 'poor quality of his work'.
A few people lingered around, some arguing with other groups. Sokka gazed around the class, only Zuko, Jet and Haru were left.
Great.
"Anyone who doesn't have a group join Haru's group. Yes, that means you too Zuko!" Zuko muttered something to Jet, who smirked. "You four gather around, and you better get some work done or you'll be held back another year,"
Sokka dragged his chair grudgingly over to Haru, the others doing so too.
"Katara could you please give out a piece of paper to everyone in the class?" handed a stack of A3 paper to Katara who begun handing them to every desk.
loved getting them to brainstorm and make posters. He also loved giving praise and merit points to Katara for her 'beautifully detailed work'.
Katara flouncd past Sokkas table and handed them a sheet of pink paper each, she did that on purpose thought Sokka. He glared at her as she went back to her friends.
"Quiet now everyone!" Mr. Cotter glared at Sokka's table. Sokka glared back, he hadn't even been talking! "Last terms projects were great and I hope that this term everyones' work will be just as good. The best project will get a prize,"
In other words; Katara's team would get the prize.
"This term we will be making blogs. Your' blog can be on topic you like, but, you have to post on it everyday to get an 'acheived' mark on this. We will be using the computers from the computer suite everyday. Everyone brainstorm what you might do for the next 20 minutes, I'll go around checking peoples work,"
Sokka glanced at the pink piece of paper, clicking his pen in thought.
"Have any ideas?" Haru asked first, looking at them.
"Nope," The rest of them said together.
