Homework #76

 The title of the book I once read was called Goosebumps: Egg Monster from Mars. The book was about a boy named, Dana Johnson, and at his little sister's birthday he went egg hunting and found this really unusual egg and kept it. He saw it was the size of a soft ball, covered in blue and purple veins, and it had started to hatch. I read this book because the title and picture was interesting. Yes, I like reading fiction because its not real so you can make it as crazy as you want. All of them because they are all interesting.

Homework #57

In this essay I will be answering three questions. 1. How do I think high school will be different from middle school. 2. How middle school will prepare me for high school. 3. What do I want to know about high school.

I think high school will be different from middle school because there will be alot of work. I say this because high school do alot of college work and they also do high school work so that they can prepare for college. They would also get loads of homework.

Middle school will prepare me for high school because in 6th grade we do 7th grade work to prepare us for that grade. In 7th grade we might work on 8th grade work and so on. So as we are doing work from a grade higher we are learning and getting used to the work.

3 things I want to know about high school are 1. Are the teachers mean? If so what are their names. 2. Are the teachers nice? If so what are their names. 3. How much homework do you get? Are they very hard or easy? I would like to know these things because they are interesting also I would like to know what teenagers think of their teachers and homework.

So now you know how I think middle school will be different from high school, how middle school would prepare me for high school , and what I would like to know about high school.

HW #31

A song that reminds me of a time or place is "Buffalo Soldier" by Bob Marley. I remember this song because one of the people — his name was Jassim — I worked with in Iraq used to play a Bob Marley tape whenever we were in his car. One day we were driving to a city called Falluja and there was a lot of fighting going on. We came to an American army checkpoint and the soldiers who stopped our car and searched it did not want to let us continue. We began talking to them, and when they heard that our driver was playing Bob Marley, the soldiers started to relax. They let us through the checkpoint.

The African Burial Ground Essay

Why is the African Burial Ground important? It is important because it is a marking of when African people died,it is also important because some very important people were buried there. The African Burial Ground is a marking of African people because they were buried there a long time ago. They were buried there because they were either worked to death, killed, or killed themselves.

Important people were buried there. They were buried there because they died for fighting for our rights. Most people that were killed were men. I say this because most men were the ones who fought for our freedoms.

So now you know why the African Burial Ground is important because some important people were buried in it and it was dedicated to African people.
