Math Class & Physical Education

Today in math class we received our assessment #2 test. I received a 90%. I studied all week long, and I'm so proud to get that grade. On my last assessment I got a 67%. So I improved alot! I went up 23%. We had alot of test. The only reason why we had alot of test because our grades were really bad so she wanted us to bring our grade up. We only have one more week till we get our progress reports. So I'm trying ton get my math grades up. Our math class is bad. Our average out of the whole class is 66%. We are the lowest class. All we did in math class was to review our test. In P.E we ran around the gym. I was playing basketball and others were playing football. In P.E class we are working on baseball. We are catching,pitching,and batting the ball. So far out of my P.E grade is an A. In P.E we have to do a routine after we get out of the locker rooms. WE do push-ups,and sit-ups. We do different exercises. We also have to do two laps running around the field. That is very tiring. If we don't run the whole way we cant participate. Then a few hours later it was time to go home.

Lunch and Technology

At lunch we had orange chicken. Everyday we have either chicken or beef. Dr.Scott was playing old music and I didn't like the music. She played Marvin Gay, Pattie La bell,and Smokey Robinson. Then when Dr.Scott put on her favorite song she started singing on the mike. Everybody was clapping. I didn't know my vice principal had a great voice.It was kind of funny because when she was singing she started coughing, on the mike. After she stopped coughing she just put the mike back on the radio. Me,my friend Oshane and James was laughing. My vice Principal is nice but very strict. She doesn't tolerate any disrespectful children. My teachers don't either. I think I'm respectful to all my teachers. After lunch I went to my 5Th MOD which was technology concepts.In technology concepts we had to do a PowerPoint on the thirteen colonies. In my technology class if you talk you had to put your hands on your head and stand on one foot. So after she said that everybody stopped talking. Today was the best day i had ever since the first day of school

Today in language arts

Today in class we did a story map on Nelson Mandela. Nelson Mandela was a man who wanted to have equal rights in South Africa. Mandela had great courage to fight for his country when he knew he could go to jail. Back then whites controlled the government of South Africa. It was all about racial segregation. I think this story is boring, but Mandela had some encouraging words in this book. Some of his words were, "My country is rich in minerals and gems, but I have always known that its greatest wealth is its people". Those words show Mandela is proud of his country. He is saying that without the people in Africa, his county is nothing. Nelson Mandela was a strong brave man.Did you know he went to jail for 25 years, for fighting for his people's rights? After jail Mandela became president in 1994. That was 3 years before I was born. After being president, Thabo Mbeke became the next president.

7th grade

Today in class we had a substitute named Mr.Wilson. For the first 10 minutes of class we had to read. After reading we had to read a story called Rikki-Tikki-Tavi.Then we had to answer questions from the story. When I was done all my work I sat back down to read. After every body was done their work we was allowed to talk. The only thing we could'nt do was switch seats. After Mr.Wilson clearly said dont switch seats they switched when he left the class room. After that MOD we went to lunch.
