Hi!

AGENDA:
BLOG CORRECTIONS
Book Bracket
NaPoWriMo: Poems and Prompts
HW: 13 Poems read and written!
15 by Monday!

Ms. Nakada tells us to take our book brackets out and to grade them. My book bracket was dead the minute Big Ideas lost, so I only got 44. The Outsiders won apparently, which is disappointing. I was rooting for Wonder if Creating America lost, which it did. Ms. Nakada also asked us to take out our poems to check. Everyone is talking around me, and Ayden and Ms. Nakada are arguing, kind of. I sit and wait for Ms. Nakada to check my poems. 

Now, we are taking out our poem packets and reading "Before" by Ada Limon. This poem is about life changing and looking back and seeing one moment fixed in time. It's really quiet in the classroom, besides Ms. Nakada talking about the poem. It's a sad poem, which I guess explains why it's so quiet. The prompts for poems today are write a an insect poem and write a poem about your favorite nickname. 

We also take out our binder reminders so Ms. Nakada can check them. It's a really calm day, as I mentioned before, so I don't have much to talk about. Behind me, Conlan is talking about toilet paper and math. Bridget is laughing with Shosh and Bruno is talking to himself. Bruno and Bridget are still arguing about High School. I get a collection, because I don't feel like writing or revising poems. I get a collection called Blackout by Eliana Yeager. It's really really good. I read a few more collections and then write a poem. 

Veronica reads a poem called "Karen" about a white girl. Then, Mingus reads a poem too but I forgot what it's called. Lastly, Willa reads her poem and then the bell rings.

Bye!

Also, Brün is great, and maybe Thor too. Just kidding, he sucks. .;,;.



Well, alright, LISTEN UP KIDS. Due to the fabulous success of our second rant against Argentina, we've decided to make another one. Stay tuned.

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,
