Today we spoke about morallity. We look at this passage about the miltary and how this guy killed a soilder. I stated that this is justified and also not. Its not because of the regret and ptsd. Its also justified because of the fact the soilder was put into a kill or be killed situation.  it goes both ways honestly.

Today mr Rease wasnt here today. We did work on this passage about video game addiction. Apparently teens are addicted to video games causes problems. we did some questions on it and i learned a couple of things. 3 million teens are addicted to video games. Then 45 million kids 8-18 play video games. At least i learned something today.

We should have a free day in class. We should have a free day because it is a friday. With it being a friday kids are going to go to the weekend and forget most of the stuff you tought us. We should also have a free day because most of the kids are tired. Its still 10 in the morning and kids would either fall asleep or just not listen and zone out. With these reasons i hope you understand and give us the free class pd.

 today we looked at a drunk driver play at school. it tought me to realize the dangers of driving. Since i have a car and is currently learning how to drive it hit close to home. with this knowledge of teens dying in car crashes im more careful. This play just makes the importance of learning to drive more important. 

 today was all about black history and future. We presented some of our black own metro atlanta buisnesses. it was calming to watch and i also took note of some so i could visit them. Then we watched a video on the top 1 percent. which were upper black class. i took notes and later gave them to my teacher. The overall period was fun and informational.

Today was a boring period. We had to work on vocabulary words. We had to write them down with definition and part of speech. Then put them in sentences and complete two exercises using the words. It was a pretty boring period to say the least. At least i know some new words though.

Today Mr rease wasnt teaching today. It was a new teacher named Ms cook and she is new to teaching in general. She first talked about oppression and stuff. Then she gave us a poem about dreams and them being wasted. After that she annotated that poem with us and gave us a heart and told us to write our dreams. The class ended early today so i did some leftover work from my other class.

Today is the first day back from my oral surgery. In the class today i was annotating and analyzing a poem by maya angelou. We made a pledge to the african american community. Then Mr rease gave us a project that we have to do. We have to give 10 slides worth of black owned businesses in metro atlanta. 

 Today in class we all presented our one pager. Mines was the poem Hope is the thing with feathers. i explained my personal connection I explained my quotes that i used as my barrier. I also explained my inspiration of making this one pager. It was fun making this.

 

Today we did boring bookwork. After the bookwork i took some time making my one pager. i would have to finish it at home since i didnt have enough time to do it in the class. I took all weekend fleshing out my one pager so i can do it tonight without any difficulty. I hope i can do it within an hour.

 today in Mr rease class we were given an assignment. We have to do a one pager about a poem called "hope"is the thing with feathers. Its a really nice poem i like how they symbolizes that a bird has hope. As it flies through the storm and all it wants is bread crumbs. Besides that today was boring

Today was confusing. We read a this poem that was really confusing. She wouldnt get to the point. If she did she would make it descreet. We analzyed it and paraphrased it. That was the worse poem ive ever read would not reccomend it.
