Whales for Entertainment or Whales for Meat

               Today, I saw a movie called, "Big Miracle," by Drew Barrymore and John Krasinki. It showed that Eskimos are illegally hunting whales and using all of there body parts for there own uses. It shoes how they follow whales on land and throw huge spears at it. It tries to free itself from the spear but the spear is really sharp so a whale can never free itself from it. It shows how people are starting to mine for oil in Alaska and some times when oil spills it makes the water impure for the whale to drink water. So they have to take a detour during migration period and if they are lucky they make it there a little later but if they aren't it starts to get really cold and most of the breathing holes are going to be covered up by ice and snow so the whale either has to keep trying to keep open the breathing hole or drown. So a huge machine is used to melt the ice. But it ended up stuck in ice and snow. So they had to take help from the Soviet Union which was the closest place that they had a machine to melt the snow. The baby whale dies. But the two parents make it to the ocean.

Enemy Fire or Football Burst

         Today before even school started everybody was ducking and hiding. Two 6th graders were playing football and suddenly the other kid did not catch the football so it landed on the gravel path and a bus was coming that way and the bus ran over the football. It made a huge sound. People started to duck and scream. But then I heard some yell out, "My football burst it is not enemy firing." Then I reassured all the little kids that it was just a football being ran over by a bus. Then I heard absolute silence then suddenly a BB gun pellet hit the window. The window shattered into pieces then everybody went psycho. Until a school teacher came and reassured them they were all crying and trying to see where the next pellet would hit. By the end of the day they had barred all of the windows and put giant pieces of wood to block the glass part of the windows.

November 13th

             The weekend is over we have school again. We do not have holidays till next week. Today is a one day. I went to my first period and sat down ready to begin with the warm up. It was quite simple and I finished it before the time ran out. I sat down reading book. The name of the book is "Gregor The Overlander," by Suzanne Collins. By the way she was also the author of the "The Hunger Games." The book was really good and I started reading it from where I left of. I got done reading five pages before Mr. Hogan said, "Times Up!" We checked our answers for last weeks asignment and Mr. Hogan started to write bullet points and highlighted the important ones. He gave us some problems to work on and the period was over. He said that we have to finish them for homework. I went to period L and Mr. Herlihy told us it was Picture Day and took us to the Auditorium to let the people take photoes of us. We went back to the classroom and he told us to finish the summary and do warmup number 2. Suddenly the bell rang. I went to second period and Mrs. Jones had already finished writing the quiz on the board as well as the Essential Question. We took the quiz and Mrs. Jones asked me to write the answers on the board. We did an asignment and we went to the computer lab to do some work on the computer. Then I went to the library for Teacher AID. I went to Language Arts and we read some little kids stories such as Baby llama misses mama and other llama stories. Next period I went  to FCS and we had to turn in this project I worked on during the weekend. Then for the last period I went to Spanish and there we studied about the subject pronouns and their formation.

November 9th

                School started out fine today. We had Spanish for first period. I got my TI-84 Silver Edition calculator to school today so I can put some programs in my calculator. My favorite class is Science because I like doing experiments. We did an experiment today. We worked with open flames. We experimented with different types of substances to see how that would affect the amount of heat energy would be transferred. In Math Mr. Hogan put a pretest. Our highest score is 16. Mr. Hogan was happy because it was a pretest but we still got 16 out of 22. In Social Studies we discussed about the the Congress. We were bored at the start of the period but by the end of the period nobody was bored because we did fun activities on the computer. In third period I helped the librarian by putting away the books and started to read. In fourth period we watched a Simpsons movie. It involved a poem known as "The Raven," by Edgar Allan Poe. We went to lunch and I played Cricket. In fifth period we studied about the stages of children and appropriate things to do for their age. In sixth period we did an assignment on "Me Gusta........" I went home on the 3:00 p.m bus and got home by 3:30 p.m. I played in my DS. I finished my homework and watched  a educational cd. I went home.
