Are phones changing the future of the generations in a bad way?

Nowadays, teenagers spend most of their time in the phone. It means, that they do not sleep enough because we/they don’t sleep the 8 hours because they are chatting or playing video games at the middle of the night. Besides from not sleeping, electronic devices emit rays that interfere with bedtime and cause problems with the sleep-wake rhythm. The electronic device that is being used more today is the cell phone. Teenagers are being less social (physically) because they are always in their phone.

1.     1. What do you think that could happen to you if the rays emitted by the phone go beyond the expectations?
2.      2. If you recognize that you are a phone-user-24/7, do you want to sleep more and talk to the people that you have in front of you?

The Devil's Tower

The Devils Tower is located in northeast Wyoming and is a giant laccolithic butte of igneous rock. Igneous is from the Latin word ignis that means fire. Why fire you may ask, it is because igneous rock comes from solidified magma.

It stands currently at 867 feet (265 m) from summit to base and 5, 112 feet (1, 559 m) above sea level.

In more simple words the Devil’s Tower is a stalk, a small intrusive stalk formed from magma that cooled underneath the earths surface and was later exposed by erosion.



1. If you discovered this monument first, what would you think it was made from at first glance?

2. How long do you think it took for the Devil’s tower to form and come above the surface?
