Lake Compounce !
Once we arrived at the theme park we sat there waiting for our tickets to get inside.I felt excited because we was going to get on all the rides. In The group it was Sekouba,Linda,Saikou,Thalia,Ada,Joshua,Alex,Jonas,Victor and I. The teacher we had was Mr.Osei. The first ride we got on was the Down Town but Joshua,Victor,Thalia and I didn't get on it. So actually the first we all got on it was the Wildcat.Linda and I was partner and we was In the front car.We also got on the Bomber Cars,Boulder Dash,Zoomerang,Wildcat,Saw Mill Plunge,Enterprise.My Favorite ride is the Boulder Dash.The Boulder Dash was my favorite ride because its the longest ride their. I also like how it was bumpy and it surprised me. I liked all the rides.The funniest thing that happen on the Wildcat was everytime we go up someone would say wow..wow.. Mr.Osei got on the Wildcat and thats it. I only ordered frensh fries.The food was OK.
The last ride we went on was the Boulder Dash. I saw the water park and the pool. The bus ride home was a little bumpy. I went to sleep but people kept waking me up.When we was on our way home we saw he movie Batman Beggins.I like about Lake Compounce is that we all had fun. Im going to make plans for my fmil to go to the summer so i could actually get wet.

I MOVIE
I thought the other videos was fun to watch.I think Angel,Alhaji,Josue.. group was the best video because they use real characters. I would say to other peoples who dont know how to use I-MOVIE to try there best. Yes I think that they would understand before reading the book because the video shows parts of the book.
You have several weeks to make your film incredible. How do you plan to improve your film?
For the I-MOVIE I would put more interesting picture. And also record more.

MONSTER
I still think that Racism still exist. Can a minority get a fair trial? Why or why not? Do you think Steve Harmon will get a fair trial? Why? Why Not? How do you think O'Brien feels about the Jury they selected for Steve's trail?
Why do you feel some people think that our country's court systems are racist? Why do you feel there are more black men in jail than college?

How powerful is the language that we use? Why do people call each other names? How often do you call people names? Do you think about how the person might feel when you call them the name? How often do you see others being called name? Is there anyone in your school who is teased for being Gay? How do you think people feel when they are constantly teased?
Why does Petrocelli call Steve a "Monster"? What metaphors do you compare people to when you name call? How does Steve feel about being called a monster? What does he doe after he is called a monster? Do you think Steve feels like a monster? Do you think Steve is a monster? Do you think he is innocent or guilty?

Porportion
Think and Discuss
The first thing that pops into my head when I here the terms cross multiply it helps me solve proportion by multiplying the numerator from one ratio and multiply the denominator by the other ratio numerator. After multiplying i would find out if its proportion or not.
Identify the error in this problem:
2/3 = x/12 2x = 36; x = 18
The error in this problem is that they multiplied 3 x 12 which they was suppose to multiply
2 x 12. This is how the problem should have been
2/3 = x/12
3x = 24
x = 8
Are this proportional ?
6/45 and 2/15
6 x 15 = 90 45 x 2 = 90
Both problems are the same answer so this problem is proportional

Yes, Thats Me
Yes, that’s me

My eyes are hazel green
My arms are a very light color
My hands turns red when something wrong
My heart beeps every second

I hope my dream come true
I dream i could fly
It’s all clear as can be.
That’s positively, absolutely me
I Asked
I asked the Pricipal why it was red
And it ran and as fast as it can
I asked the Teacher why it was Blue
And it felt like he had the flu
I asked the tree why its so tall
And it send me down a leaf
I asked the Stars to Shine on the sea shells in the sand
And it Shine all night
I asked the book to be more interesting
And it did and the book closed o me.
I asked the Student why There in school
And they ran and said because there cool
I asked myself what is wrong with me
And the wind started whistling
The wind whistle
The Could went away
And I kept quiet
And everything was perfect.

Good Bye Winter
I think I might cry
Brrrrrrrrrr.!
Coldness everywhere
In the streets , In my house
That winter I havent seen a mouse.
The clock
Waiting for the clock
I found a block
I heard a knock
Then I walked
Oops! I slipped on my sock.

How do we evaluate algebraic expresions?
1) (12x) 12(x)
2)(4/y) 4÷y
3)(3xy/2) 3•x(y÷2)
The difference between variable and a constant because a variable is a letter represents a number that can vary. A constant is a number that could not change. So a constant doesn't change but a variable can change because it gets replace for a number.

The Math Test
Paragraph 2: I think I did ok.But then I have a feeling that I could do better in the test.The most diffucult part was to in dentify the similes,metaphor,Onamanapea, I felt kind of nervous because i forget things real quick. I think my grade would be lower then a 80 but less then a 70. I dont think im prepared but I could start studying.

The Bronx Masquerade
I really don't have nothing in common. Th character that I like the most is Diondra because she follows her own decision because her father dont want her to paint but she wants to keep on painting. Diondra follows her decision. I could relate to Diondra so much.
I relate the least with Tyrone because hes a boy and he mean. He's always have to say something about someone. If I could make a character I would a put a mean girl that has an attitude and think she all that. To see how the other character would react.

Racism
Once, I was in a taxi with my sister and mother. We was going home getting out of my grandmas house in Manhattan. While, I was in the taxi I saw a group of White boys beating up a African. I think the African was drunk. So the white group of boys took advantage of the African. There was no police to be found. So they took the mans sneakers and I think the man wallet. Then there was a green light. Then we left.

Metahphors and Similies
His head is as big as a balloon.
Metaphor
His head is bigger than a balloon.
Metaphor
Her hair is dirties than her face.
Similies
Sadness is as happy as laughter.
Similie
The river is like the ocean.
My Bull
My Bull is the shimmering crane bird on the riverbank,
My Bull is white fresh milk!
His roar is thunder to the Turkish cannon on the steep shore.
My bull is dark is the rain cloud in a storm.
He is the summer and winter.
Half of him is dark the storm cloud
Half of him is light the sunshine.
His back shines the morning star.
His brow is red the back of a hornbill.
His forehead is a flag, calling the people from a distance.
He resembles the rainbow.
I will water him at the river,
With my spear I shall drive my enemies.
Let them water their herds at the well;
The river belongs to me and my bull.
Drink, my bull, form the river; I am here to guard you with my spear.

Black History Poems
it makes me sad
Slaves going everywhere
anywhere they can

Thinking they rule everything

They never come alone
Because they scared

because in my mind there not there

Diary Entry Chapter 14
Dear Diary,
Ms.Addot made me stand up naked in front of everybody.I think she did that just because i wet the bed. It was by accident. I never knew I did it. I wonder how that happen. When they told me I was going to Jail I was shocked. I thought about what Ronny told me about his life. I told Kevin to go away because if I leave who else would he play with. And I would keep loosing the people I like and love. I felt that Ronny was at this home fo a very long time because he wanted to fight me. And i didnt do nothing to him. I dont know why Ronny wanted to fight me i guess he beats up every knew kid.
Sincerely,
Jennings

How do we use spreadsheets to create graphs?
Today in class, we learned how to add data and use a spreadsheet to create graph. Also, we were given a Technology Lab Recording Sheet to answer some questions. In the spread sheet we was giving instructions to find an appropriate graph to match the data that were given to us. To find a matching graph for your data you need to click insert and click graph. It would give you a list of graphs to choose. You would need to choose a graph that would go better with your data. When you put all the information of your graph you need to click finish,your graph would pop up in your desktop.
The graph that best dispalys the Student Council Budget is a Bar graph because a circle graph doesnt give you the values.And it also doesnt give you the amount. In a bar graph you could see that the data looks more simple in a bar graph then a pie graph/circle graph. A line graph would be an appropriate display of the Student Council Budget because a line graph would be the same as a Bar graph but with line segments. So, the data would be shown the same in a bar graph and line graph. So, yes it's appropriate.

Diary Entry
Why did you leave me. When you left me some lady came and took me to her house. It was terrible. We only ate breakfast and dinner. I was taking care in the Orphanage the here. I miss Doggie and Mark. I dre a picture of Doggie. At least i have a part of Doggie
Diary Entry
Today I hit Butch. He got me mad. He was making fun of mark. I know his not my friend but Butch has to stop hurting people. Today I felt special because Mark wanted to be my friend. I felt like im not lonely no more. I met a girl name Stacey she talk fast. I only could here one word of her sentences. I also felt leaving doggie was like mom leaving me here.
They Cage The Animals At Night
The positive thing about Jenning's family is that sometimes they help each other. And when they're all together they sometimes stick together. The negative thing about jennings family is that they allways going to homes and they got to go their seperete ways. When they get close to each other and there mother get sick they have to leave. Jennings was treated horrible when he was with the Carpenters. he would get yelled at and olny eat O2 times a day. In the Carpenters they was so mean to Jennings they actually threw out the picture of Doggie.
I think Jennings had a home in the Home of the Angels because he had friends and he had people who cared about him. In the Home Of Angels he spend more time and got O2 know more peoples. In St.Teresa he just stayed in that home for a few days so Jennings didnt really meet a lot of friends. I think Sal is likea father to Jennings people Sal talks to Jennings like if Jennings is his son. Also Sal cares about Jennings and Listens to what Jennings tells him. When Jennings was getting tease at Sal was talking to Jennings like a responsible father. I think Sal make Jennings feel like hes not alone. Also I think Sal make Jennings feel like Jennings could talk to Sal about anything when ever he sees him. I relly think that Mark is a brother O2 Jennings because they use to play with each other and talk about things like brother do. And Also heelp each other out. I think HALF of Jennings dont really like his life because he goes to many homes. The other HALF likes it because he meets new people and new friends. Jennings sometimes goes O2 peoples homes when the people are nice.
The Endddddddddddddd =].

My Christmas Vacation
My Christmas vacation was exciting. I got lost of presents and I celebrated it with my family. My Christmas vacation was very hard working because I had to clean because they decided to celebrate Christmas in my house. But it was worth it because I had lots of fun.
December 24,2008 was FUN. Everybody was dancing even
the little kids. In Christmas everybody gathered around in a
circle and everybody had a glass of wine and started
drinking. I wasn't drinking I'm too short. Well Christmas
was FUN!
December 31,2008 was very interesting. Seeing the ball drop was fun. Everybody was screaming and shouting and making noise.Everybody was conversation about there New Year Resolution. The one thing that i hate about 2009 is that i lost my phone. I don't know where it is. I don't know if its home but WHAT EVER .
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEARS !
