Ila read the blog today, and we had a lock down drill. Then, the people in the back started laughing and talking during the drill. The class was quiet. I was very surprised with Camrynn because she talks everyday of the week.

We entered our five week grades and several students passed back portfolios and work.

Then, we summarized the books we read.

    Hi, so Alissia decided to choose me for the blog. Honestly, I don't want to do this. Anyways, so Ms. Nakada starts the Quote of the week which was," People spend their whole lives looking for love. Poems and songs and entire novels are written about it. But how can you trust something that can end as soon as it begins?" - Nicola Yoon The Sun Is Also A Star But before we started the quote of the week she started asking the class what we want friday, kinda got hungry, but not really.

   Anyways,  We just started the question of the week which was, " Can you make someone fall in love with you?" My honest opinion, I have no idea, cause I don't believe in it, but that's just my opinion. Than, Ms. Nakada starts talking about To All the Boys I Loved, the book project Jade made. Now we're doing the song of the day it's called "The Promise" - When in Rome. This song is about love, and my favorite lyric is, "I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say." 

   Now, we're starting literature circles. I may just read, but I don't know. Well, the bells about ring bye, have a good rest of the day!

     Jason read his blog, and then we started correcting it. Jason kept bugging me and kept saying, "How do you like the blog?" They started to talk about Hastings because they wanted to know if he has hair. Ms. Nakada passed out papers to the class. It was about Michael Brown and how he was shot by a cop. When they were done with the paper, Ms. Nakada told  the class they could do their book projects. The bell is about to ring, and I got to go to sixth period bye.

HW: RJ 4.3

So, today we started with David reading his blog. After he was done, he chose two people, and then changed his mind and picked me. I didn't really wanna do it but it's whatever. After this, Ms. Nakada starts talking about the black lives matter movement and puts on a video how it started in a town named Ferguson. The police had shot and killed a black man named Michael Brown. After the police shot him they left his body laying in the street. After this happened, people were upset that the police could do something so cruel to someone that didn't even commit a crime. The video continued, it explained about a bunch different stories that happened throughout 2014-2015. Then, everyone went into lit. circles and she walked around and check everyone's lit. notes. The class was pretty quiet for the remainder of the class.

       Hello, Class. I got picked for the blog sadly, but I at least got it out of the way. Today, we did the quote of the week which was "If you have the feeling something is wrong, don't be afraid to speak up" by Fred Korematsu. Then, We talked about the question of the week which was: "Do you follow the golden rule?" which means treating others the way you want to be treated.

Now, we are doing the Song of the week which is "Strange Fruit" by Billie Holiday which is a really strange song. We then started talking about lynching from when black people were being hanged and how there is a museum to learn about a specific part of lynching, a woman went to the lynch grounds where it happend a white guy was driving his truck and stopped hopped out and asked her what she was doing and she showed him the paper, then he got down on the ground to help her.

Now, we have 8 minutes of class left we took out our Lit Circle Notes, the end.
