Taking a Stand
Impromptu: thesis/plan 
Reader's Workshop

HW: RJ 2.3 
TKAM p.132-149

Please do not get mad at me for blinding you.

We start the day reading Zia's blog all the while Chris and Yasin are telling Zia to choose me for the blog. Of course she chooses me. Ms. Nakada shows us an Anne of Green Gables trailer. The rest of the class reads their reading journals to each other. Once the class has finished, Abril volunteers to read the summary. We now must get our English journals, and answer the question: "What does it mean to take a stand" Veronica and Ayden volunteer to answer the question of taking a stand. Ms. Nakada wants us to take a moment to think of historical examples of people taking a stand. Ms. Nakada tells us about Tank Man, a man who would not let a tank pass for a pro-democracy movement of the people, and talked to the man in the tank. No one knows what happened to him. Charlotte gives an example of another historical person taking a stand. Greg tells us about the USSR and people reporting you if you say anything bad. We give some more examples like the #timesup movement, the Vietnam War protests, Sojourner Truth, and Dr. M.L.K. Jr.  We watch another video on rights. Now we must write in our English book personal examples some examples include boycotting Walmart, Chick-Fil-A, selecting books from diverse authors, not watching the NFL, and one by Chris walking out of Ms. Hemstead's class when she substituted for Mr. Hastings.  We are now righting about intro to impromptu Ayden askss if he and the speech and debate kids can mentor the other kids. Bruno laughs at this. Ayden responds "be quiet Gomez."

yo its thor  just reminding you that someone please help me oh dear lord D:<


BRUNO'S  QUICK MESSAGE:

WHEW BOY, IS IT NORMAL OUT THERE! What a day to make Prussia jokes (today is German Imperial Day)! I think I'm right.

Also, Alsace-Lorraine is French. I don't know why anyone would think otherwise.

    Hey ayden u read this i hate you the least

    I see "y'all" have been slacking on your commenting duties. I'm disappointed to say the least. Anyway I'm not here to make you question your life choices... (it tends to happen when people scold you on your commenting skills) i just found this subreddit when i was bored. https://www.reddit.com/r/WritingPrompts

Thanks a lot, Charlotte..........you just had to..... Just saying, there's gonna be a lot of mistakes.... Agenda Blog Corrections Collect Trip Slips H.S / College planning Letter to your future self HW~ Letters due tomorrow We all walk into class, sit down, and write down the agenda. After that, Charlotte reads her blog and she has no mistakes. Good job, Charlotte. Anyways, Veronica and Bruno yell at Charlotte to choose them. Most people said to choose Veronica, but Charlotte didn't choose either of them. Ms. Nakada got mad at students for asking each other to sign their yearbooks. Good job. Now, Ms. Nakada is talking about the high school and college planning thing, GPAs, and APs. Some schools rank their students by GPA and the top 10% are most likely to go to UC schools. Now, Ms. Nakada is talking about some clubs that you could join in high school. ..........I just heard Fornite Club............wow Ryan................. Yay, now we have to write a letter t

AGENDA Blog · Corrections CAASPP sample ?'s Open mic/poem performance reader's/writer's workshop HW: 27 poems read EAP: 27 poems written Well, this is all Ryan's fault. I told him not to put me in the blog. But, he did and now I'm picked. Thanks, Bridget! This blog is going to be an actual blog and not going to go off topic, like the others usually are. This blog is strictly just for the things we do as a class. So, right now, we are correcting Bridget's blog which is filled with errors. Sort of like mine will be. Now, we are taking out our CAASPP sample questions and our poem packets to answer the questions within the sample. I'm guessing the class will be quiet while filling it out the essay questions we have. This will be painful for me... Should poetry be continued to be taught at schools? I said no. What do you think? I'm finished somehow. I thought it would take me longer, and people would have to wait o

Happy second to last week of school! AGENDA blog corrections Last Q&Q H.S./ college planning Letter to your future self HW: Field day trip slips due tomorrow! We corrected Mirae's blog, which had a couple of mistakes. I will try my best to make no mistakes, but, if we're being realistic, how high of a chance is it that we'll fit in another pizza party before school is over? We are doing are last question and quote of the school year. Our quote is: "Self-praise is for losers. Be a winner. Stand for something. Always have class and be humble." - John Madden Chaos ensues. Oh no. I had a full blog, but the rest got deleted. I will do my best to reconstruct what I wrote today. We had a big argument about this quote and whether or not self-praise was the same as self-love or self-confidence or if it was conceited to praise yourself. Our question of the week is: How have you changed/grown in the past three years? We then go to collegeresults.org,
