Around the world in 2 days

So today we finished our culture projects. Our teacher let the final three students present, and we went about our day. He made a deal with us he was going to talk one on one with students about our essays from last week. He told us that if we were quiet he'd just let us do a small assignment, but if we talked or disturbed the silence we would have a bucket load of homework. Well we were quiet once he made the deal. Today was good I enjoyed today, I found out one of my friends made an high score of 91 on his ASVAB. Im happy for him. I really think my class will do wonderful things once we graduate and move into the world. I don't normally tell them, but I love them and care dearly about each of them.

Around the world

Our teacher gave us an assignment to tell the class about different cultures around the world. The cultures were chosen at random, the class created PowerPoints on each of our cultures. I went today and I was crazy nervous before i presented, but once the first couple words left my mouth I was ready to go. I did well but I was just surprised to be as nervous as I was. I had fun listening to my class mates present I really loved one of my piers projects. Especially her intro.

ACT prep

Today I wasn't in class. We had to participate in ACT prep. It was fun, and enjoyable i loved how informative it was. Today we focused on math; it isn't necessarily my strong suit, but a hurdle im ready to face.

Fame or shame

Today we played fame or shame. Our teacher handed us random papers from other students. We went around the class reading the claims deciding witch one is fame or shame. The point was to see how many of us can compose a paragraph with a claim followed by evidence, then and explanation.

Son to mother

Today we looked at a prompt. Should men have a nurturing relationship with there mother. We picked sides then we read to poems one of which was by Langston Hughes. After all that we discussed the poems, and broke them down we made claims, and broke down phrases to better understand. Our teacher told us to write a paragraph, and show it to our mother after telling them about todays lesson. My mom didn't get home till around 4 but she discussed certain things with me and we talked. I wont be able to put that but I'm growing into a nice young man and I still have a lot to learn and improve on. I liked todays lesson.

I wasn’t there

Today instead of class I had to go study for scholars bowl.
