School Fun- Period 6

There is a school in California that teaches about Nintendo and video games. There is another college that offers a class on zombies in the media. Another school has a class called the Science of Superheroes. Ninja training anyone?  Remember recess in elementary school?

If you could add any one or two classes to the school, what would they be? It can be a real life class that we do not have and would be useful OR it can be a class you have made up and think we should have. The class can be serious or silly- your choice. 


Remember- FOUR SENTENCES OR MORE. Use PROPER grammar OR GET POINTS OFF!!

End of Semester- Period 6


The first semester is almost over! For your blog, I want you to rate your semester so far. You do NOT have to limit yourself to just English class. You are evaluating your semester (classes, social life, athletics, extra-curricular) as a whole (from August till now.) What are you most proud of in this first semester? What are you most disappointed about? What have you enjoyed the most so far? 

Remember: FOUR sentences or more! Use correct grammar or you risk getting 30 points taken off.

What is the BEST gift you have ever received.  I am not talking about money and it does not have to be super expensive.  It does not even have to be a Christmas gift.  I am talking about that gift that just made your eyes bug out or almost cry because it was such a surprise or so amazing.  

Describe the item and tell the story behind receiving the gift.  Why was it so special?  Where is it now?


CHECK THE MESSAGE BELOW FROM ME ABOUT THIS!

Remember: USE CORRECT GRAMMAR.  PUT YOUR PERIOD WITH YOUR NAME.  FOUR OR MORE SENTENCES TO POST AND TWO OR MORE TO REPLY.

Childhood- Period 6


I was just talking to my husband about my absolute LOVE for the original Winnie-the-Pooh and Peter Pan books and movies. Just talking to him about them made me smile and reminisce about a certain and special part of my childhood.

What are some things from your childhood that give you the "warm fuzzies" and make you smile when you think about it/them? You can talk about toys, games, specific memories, food, smells, books, movies, family trips- ANYTHING from your childhood that even today puts a smile on your face. :) Be detailed and descriptive. 
Remember: Four sentences or MORE. Use CORRECT GRAMMAR or else you could lose 30 points! I is always capitalized.
