Sandra
Who is an American writer born in Chicago
Who writes about her life
Who loves working with high school dropouts
Who feels colors make her happy and she loves creatures

Who has worked as a teacher and worked with high school dropouts
Whose parents are Mexican and Chicana
Who is un escritor norteamericano nacido en Chicago
Who is a resident of Chicago

Soliloquy-Macbeth

"If it were done, when 'tis done, then 'twere well
It were done quickly:"
A soliloquy is suppose to let the audience know the characters feelings and thoughts. So Macbeth is showing that if he is going to kill him that he should do it now and get it over with. But he is not sure if that is the rite thing to do or not.

Haiti Disaster

A massive earthquake struck Haiti on January 12th about 10 miles south of Port-au-Prince. This earthquake was the worst quake in the region in over 200 years. Witnesses have said that this earthquake could be felt strongly in eastern Cuba more than 200 miles away. There has been estimates anywhere from 50,000 fatalities to 200,000 deaths. There was more than 30 significant aftershocks of a 4.5 magnitude or higher that rattled Haiti through the night of the 12th and into the early morning.

My blog

I think that getting our own blogs was a really cool thing to do. I like it a lot because I have really bad handwriting and now that we are doing most of our stuff on here I don't have to worry about writing. Another thing that is really cool about this is the cluster maps. I think that it is really cool that they can just tell where the people are from that are viewing your blog. My goal for the year on my blog is to have over 100 people view my blog.

The Brooklyn Nine

The Brooklyn Nine By Alan Gratz is based on a 9 inning baseball game. This baseball gets passed on all through the book. Louis Schneider who carries his father's souvenir baseball into battle during the Civil War and ends up trading it to a wounded rebel for a Louisville Slugger baseball bat. In 1845 there is a ten year old German Jewish immigrant who meets Alexander Cartwright and The New York Knickerbockers. In 2002 his 14 year old grandson has this bat and this bat has a long history too it. I don't even care for baseball that much and I really liked this book.
I think that this book would appeal to boys a lot more than to girls unless the girl likes sports a lot. I think that this book doesn't just appeal to teens but could appeal to adults too. I didn't think that this book was to long for me it was a perfect amount of pages. This book also has a lot to do with modern history.

What happens when a teen is found guilty?

Does it hurt
like getting punched in the face?
Or loosing somebody who's close--
And then cry?
Does it stink like rotten eggs?
Or crust and crumble--
like a piece of bread?

Maybe it just hangs
like a necklace.

Or does it break?

Guilty or not?

I think that he is not guilty. I think that because he just doesn't seem like the type of guy to kill someone after he got what he wanted. I think that bobo was the one that killed the guy in the drugstore. That is about all I have to say.
