Deejay is leaning back in his chair talking & saying LOSER in a cough & Ms. Nakada thought he was referring to her as one, SMH__-. We're now reading Three Cups Of Tea & Deejay just randomly says JUICY & keeps dancing lmbo. I think theres something wrong with him. Three Cups Of Tea is a really good book. Finally Dee.Jay is paying attention and mentions something about Afganistan. Kemonte keeps talking to himself. So, we're writing cornell notes and Deejay is really focusing for once in his life YAY CLAP CLAP BRAVO :-* ! Christian looks confused as usual :) .

Every one else is talking. Now we're seeing which people were doves or hawks or isolationist. Monroe was an isolationist, Jefferson was a dove, John Adams was a dove, Washington was an isolatinist. Now we're moving on to the War of 1812. We each got our own peice of paper and we're making our own thinking map. We just wrote the out line of the map now were going back into our notes in chapter 12  to go over the war to see what were going to put in our thinking maps.  We have to use our notes to fill out the map. Now were just talking and Ms. Nakada said she doesn't know if she would die for her husband. Now every one is asking questions and having their own conversations. Now every one stopped talking and is working. Some people are working in groups and some by themselves. Now we're all done with our maps we read some of it out loud and now were working on our alpha smarts on our research papers.

Three Cups of Tea Wordle

Student Profile

tagxedo

HW: RJ 15.1

On Monday we met in the computer lab.  The first thing we did was go to Wordle.  We wrote down our name four times and then we typed ThreeCupsofTea six times.  Then we had to write down as many important words from the book as we could.  Then we got to create word clouds of our words.

Then we worked on our student profiles from the interviews we did last week.  Some of the profiles with the taxedo images are really cool.  Here is the tagxedo I made for my profile on Gary.  Wordle and Tagxedo are cool ways to add images using text!

We were in the computer lab again today!  This time we finished our student profiles and I had to rush everyone because they needed to finish.  Then we talked about the new research assignment we're doing about a history topic.  Many students are researching amendments of the consitution and how they impact us today. Others are researching famous American speeches or Native American cultures.  A few people are looking at slavery too.

Khalifah just read his blog and now Ms. Nakada just told the class to take out the three cups of tea summaries and I can't find mine. Ms. Nakada just told the class one of her friends became a nun and Khalifah asked Ms. Nakada if they can get married and she said they are married to God. Angel keeps talking to himself and it's kind of weird. The class is reading about three cups of tea and we are reading chapter 8/9 and it's about Greg and the village men hunting ibex. Angel keeps saying impossible in a french voice. Now Ms. Nakada is letting us work on our summaries. It's time for ms nakada to go around the class and check reading journals and book projects. Ms. Nakada is showing the class her interview about Gary. Class is about to end so I will be back.

I guess it's my turn to do the blog Again. Tiera anounced that it was her birthday today HAPPY BIRTHDAY. we started the period off with a blog from two days ago and we had to go through a lot of things to see whose turn it was to do the blog. After a while I found out that it was my turn. We started on the test 8 makeups. Ms. Nakada is talking about someone who brought a gun to school and I think it went off and hurt someone. Cindy hit me in my head for no reason. Ms. Nakada is reading us a paper about how two people got shot at gardena hs and you should not bring a gun to school. We are starting to do our scores in our English and history notebooks. Someone keeps on blowing up Ms. Nakada's phone. It looks like she has a life. We started on our notes. All Ms. Nakada's notes are fun. She talks about how the French agreed but keep on attacking us. Gary said that we should nuke them just like we did china and Ms. Nakada corrected him and tells him that it was Japan and that there are a lot of innocent people down there. Ms. Nakada put her angry face on and threw her pen on the notebook on the desk. The class period is about to end so peace out.

Andrew read his blog then Miss Nakada chose me to do the blog. I don't like to do the blog!!!! Right know we are doing Organizational Patterns. Ms. Nakada just said someone took her pencile sharpener and was throwing it in the boy's lockerroom. Nobody is talking oh never mind Gary just got sent out of the class. We are talking about sequential pattern (number order, ranking, etc.) Every one is doing their work. You can hear Mr. Miller getting mad at his student. Some one just started to talk about cancer.  Ms. Nakada just started to talk about the highs school research and that we will have to choose an organizational pattern.

Every one is talking right now because it's the break and Miss Nakada is on her phone. Right know we are going to look at the MLk speach. Now we are going to do some history work. Ms. Nakda just asked two people about foreign policy and they did not know what that was and Ms. Nakada was just talking about it.  Right now we are reviewing are last notes we took. We are talking about how President Obama is a hawk and our first 3 presidents were  isolationists and doves. We are going to do proganda. One side is going to be a dove and the other side is going to be a hawk.

So we started this class of talking about interviews and Ms. Nakada asked Gary if she can interview him. He said yes. Ms. Nakada asked Gary about his familly and he said he has two brother and two sisters. He gets along with his 22 year old sister the best because she does not pick on him for no reason. Gary's hardest moment in life said was in seventh grade when his dad lost his job how it was hard for the whole familly. Ms. nakada asked how did you help him, gary said by not getting introuble. Cushan is laughing at every response that Gary has to Ms. Nakada. In the future Gary sees himself and Cushan said playing basketball at the Y.M.C.A. But Gary really sees himself doing football playing for the Eagles. Gary has never been in love, but he does believe that love is possible at our age. Alright, it's my turn to interview Gary and class is over now onto history.

             So unfortunately I have to do the blog( Ms. Nakada caught me). So right now we're taking notes on Famous Speeches. Then everyone starts talking and laughing. Ms. Nakada gets mad and says, "Okay let it go guys!"So Ms. Nakada continues writing when Dj farts,(disgusting) and everyone starts laughing. Then Ms. Nakada is explaining that someone who kills random people is metally ill, like this guy he got kicked out of college, and what he wrote was bizzare like things at the end of the world. So Obama's speech is having trouble loading, and we have to wait and see it later on. So were waiting for Ms. Nakada and Dj and Cushan keep singing. And Anthony just dropped the history books in the trash can and left them there. Then samantha tries to fix the shelf and has trouble fixing it. Ms. Nakada just said that it isn't legal to fly to Cuba. And if the president flew there they would try to shoot the plane down. A nuclear weapon can kill thousands of people in an instant. Then Cushan just says what if a hawk tries to kill us, Ms. Nakada just makes a face and says why would a hawk come here and kill us. So there is the great wall of China and there is a river that divides China with North Korea, and if you would play the game, I'm here, I'm not, I'm here, now I'm not you could but you shouldn't because you could be shot. Then Ms. Nakada tells Kemonte to look at his map that he drew for Haiti but he didn't draw it. And Dj just got caught goofing off. Ms. Nakada just asks who was the next president, and Matthew whispers behind me "Your mom!" lol. Ms. Nakada continues explaining to us about foreign policies of the first US presidents. Well the bell is about to ring so, BYE!
