Q1.The most common drug is marijuana. Sometimes they get the drugs and put them in candy and then sell them to the other students.

Q2.Schools cant always catch them but if they do some schools like Macleans College, they warn people of the consequences first in the prospectus and on the website that if they get caught they might be expelled and they will contact the Police Youth Aid.

Q3.Students that smoke drugs don't buy drugs at school they arrange a time and place for the dealers to meet someone else. the students sometimes mug and steal money to buy their drugs

Q4.The reason why students turn to drugs is mainly because of peer-pressure and because they don't want to look uncool. If someone asks them to take drugs they'll say yes and then get addicted to drugs, and another reason is that they might feel depressed. The effects will probably be personality changes, repeated health problems, discipline problems, negative attitude, red and glazed eyes, starting arguments, low self-esteem, sudden mood changes and general lack of interest.

Q5.Drugs do effect children's learning because when kids are under the influence of drugs they become very uncoordinated and they get blood shot eyes so they can't see properly and there eyes become very glassy and blury. There are laws around underage drug dealings in schools.

Thursday 6 September Well done, Taaza's you have started really well. Well answered questions and a script that is well under way. Make sure that the script has a good message as this is more important rather than the technolgy that you use. It is great to see that you have sorted out a day to do your filming. Next steps: action plan evidence and filming. Mr B.
