REWARDS- social studies.

It is unfair because people that doesn't work hard shouldn't receive the same awards as people who work hard because the people that work actually work hard to win/ receive awards. On the other hand those that don't work receive awards with even trying or working hard like the others, to me this is an unfair treatment. I think that those who don't work hard should not receive the same as those who does work hard.

Mood- Poetry

The mood of this song is sad because in this song ne-yo saids a line "Nobody's talkin',
'Cause talkin' just turns into screamin'. And now as I'm yellin' over her, She yellin' over me." He is also mad because no one remembers why they started fighting. I think Ne-yo wrote this poem with the mood sad because it expresses the way he feels towards his girlfriend.

Bx Masquerade #1

I like this book because it not boring and it has a lot of characters that are funny. I Can connect with Chankara Trope because she did not let let her self down when her boyfriend hit her. She is my favorite character because she has a lot or personality. When her boyfriend touch her in a place that she did not want to be touch she slapped him and told him to get out. I least favorite character is Wesley because he does not have a lot of personality.

Poem Reflection- Changes

What i can infer about this poem is that people back then disliked people with color. The word that best describes the poets feelings is sad, because there was a lot of racism. The main idea of this poem is to never give up and to keep on going.
I connect with this poem because to this day there is still racist people.

* 8th Grade State Math Test

I fell confident for the Math state test next month because i think that i am prepared. I have been preparing for the math test in school and out by doing homework and much more. Unfortunately i am not confident with Measurement conversions, i need a little more work on that.
I think it is important to come to school daily because for one day you miss you can be missing out on a lot. I also think it is important coming to school daily because you can understand the lesson more.

* "Transformations - Conclusion"

  • I enjoyed this unit a lot because each type of transformation has different rules. A translation when u slide a figure to a different location. A dilation is when u change the figures size without changing its shape depending on the scale factor. A reflection is when you flip a figure over a line of symmetry. A rotation is when you turn an object around a center point. You can apply a reflection in real life when you look at yourself in the mirror. You can also apply a translation in real life by moving a ramp.
