"Themes in To Kill a Mockingbird"

Some majors things in to kill a mockingbird is to be respectful, anger,and love. The author reveals respectful because Jem was tearing Ms.Dubose bushes down and Atticus told him that that was wrong from him doing that. The author reveals anger because the reason Jem teared the bushes of Ms. Dubose it was because she was talking bad about his family and he does not like that. The author also reveals love because when Scout aunt tells Atticus that he should not treat her like a baby, but Atticus tells her that she is still her baby and that he is not going to treat her bad. The lesson that I think Jem is going to learn is to be more respectful. I think that Harper Lee the author is going to make us learn is that to be more respectful and more mature.

Test Prep Action Plan

My goals for test prep is to work on a 4 on the test. I am going to work hard on studying every night for I could pass my test with a 4. I am to go over the things that I am having difficult things like taking notes. I am also going to tell my mother to do me a fake test that have all the things that I don't know like vocabulary and she is going to go over the fake test to see what I did wrong and what I did bad. The things that I get wrong I'm going to go over it. The type of questions that are in the ELA Exam are like what is the hard vocabulary meaning and you have to put yourself in the character's shoes (just a saying). I go over them and until I get what they saying I keep on but now I'm going to work on getting what the questions, passages, and Test Books is saying. I am also going to work on the difficult books for then I could work on the difficult books. But some people talks a lot in the class and I am not able to concentrate well.

To My Parents: What I've Learned so far in ELA.

My biggest accomplishments for this year in ELA so far this year is to be better in Writing and to make my writing persuasive so people could enjoy my writing.
My favorite unit has been on practicing the character unit because you have to put yourself in the character's shoes. We used technology by doing lots of things like politics issues in blogger.com. We also used many different web-sites to do research that we need. Technology helps me learn and improve my reading and writing by helping us do research and many important information that we need to learn.
My goals is to pass the 8th grade and going to a good high school. My other goals is to pass all my classes like Literacy and Math. Reading and Writing are important for the future because when you come up with a letter that it is not yours you going to read it and then it will says that you have to pay the bills then you would have to get out of your house and go somewhere.

Imagine This Readers Response #2

In the story "Imagine This", the woman helped his boyfriend hide a gun because he killed a person. I disagree of her helping him to hide a gun because what about if somebody find that gun and go to the police office and then if they find you, you are going to be in big trouble because you helped the person hide a crime.

The character is really strict because everytime that somebody come saying something bad about her she stand up and speak to her. What made her that way was that she haded difficult times in the past and she came very strict about it.

The girl change throughout the book because she learns about not hiding a crime with somebody that did that crime because then you are going to be involved in that crime. She learns to not be scared of telling the police who commited that crime because then worst things are going to happen to you.

Listening Passage: Mona lisa.

One possible identity of Mona Lisa is that some people think that the Mona Lisa is him himself. For example, according to the article they said that a Dr. Lilian check the Mona Lisa with Leonardo Da Vinchi face in the computer and it looked exactly alike. I think that the Mona Lisa is Leonardo Da vinci mother because they said that the Mona Lisa was a woman from Italy and that was married to a wealthy man, and some mother look like their sons.

Character Unit Intro

Do people ever really change? Use examples from your readings and personal experience to support your answer.

Yes, people do really change because at first some people is a bad person and they change and become a good person. For example, in this movie that I saw, this girl named Helena was a bad girl and she used to bully a lot of kids in her school. She thought that she was popular, and then she killed this little kid named Robert and she felt sorry for him, then she became good but she went to jail and learn her lesson.

Election Reflection

What made this election historic was that Barack Obama is the first person to ever be an African American president. Obama's election means a lot to me because he is going to change the world and many people also think that he is going to make a change and a better world. For example, he is going to fix the war in Iraq because many soldiers are dying in the war. I feel really happy that Barack Obama won this election because I know that he is going to do a better change in the United States of America and he looks like he's a hard working man. In the next four years I think that he is going to do excellent because he is going to change the world. I think that he should take care of economics in this world because the economics is really bad and the second thing that they should do is take care of the war.
