90s day

90s day was today and everyone dressed well. In class today there wasn’t many people because there was a party during this block. The students who didn’t go stated to do vocabulary.

Work with what you go

Today I presented a project that didn’t contain some requirements to the rubric. My best ideas come from last minute work. I did not want to acknowledge the fact that I came up with my project idea in class but that’s what happened. It was not the best of my abilities but it did give me a wider vocabulary and a better understanding of those words. I presented it to the class as four words on a black poster and delivered it well, but I still do believe it could have been better.

Smoking and Obesity

Today we learned that brainstorming first before reading a passage helps break down ideas on the text. We went through if smoking, and being overweight was far for many careers and/or jobs. Most were said to be fair depending on the situation because both smoking and obesity can cuz health problems which can interfere with that certain career. We also talked about the unfair reason of why people shouldn’t smoke or be obese.

Wild Chpt 3-4

Friday, September 13 we took a test on chapters 3 and 4 and went over the questions on the test.

Grief

In class today we read Chapter 2 of Wild by Cheryl Strayed. It was months after her mom died Cheryl’s husband Paul got accepted into a school that he applied for. Part of her was happy and wanted to support him and part of her was still grieving from her mother’s death. She was torn a piece of her left with her mother’s death. She needed closure and her way of doing it was having multiple affairs and stopped but felt lonely again and started back. She finally told Paul and her whole  life changed and got worse.

America

On September 11,2019, my teacher talked about the meaning of America. The class all came up with some words that gives an idea what America mean. Freedom was one the person explained that America is a free place. Another word was diverse, I would say that this is a big part that plays in America because there’s not just one number of races and cultures here. Then he asked use to define hero and I define it as someone  who is looked up to by others by doing what’s right. For my American hero I chose Michelle Obama. I said that she was a strong black women and she was not only a presidents wife but she was his work partner.

New Beginnings

September 10,2019, I learned more interesting things about hiking. We have started a book called Wild by Cheryl Strayed. A summary of the book will be that Cheryl was going through hard times and depression in her life at the age of 22 and she  wanted a new beginning. She came across a book about the Pacific Crest and it interested her. She began to get an idea that this journey would help her with her depression and help her start her life over. I also learned that you  attract what you fear because of your actions not because you say you fear something.
