The Circuit Questions

Where is the family? What are they picking?
                 The family is in California and they are picking strawberries from a Strawberry farm.

What difficulties are they facing right now? How are they solving their problems?
               When they went to California they found out that they had to wait two more weeks before they could start picking the strawberries. Also, Mama was on the virge of having another baby so she really can't pick. Instead of Mama picking the strawberries, she cooks for the men who go work.
               
        

Trouble

For the last 20 minutes, I have been trying to figure out how to be logged into my youtube account but be logged onto my school blogger account. The things I go through to listen 2 my favorites songs. Well now I don't even remember what I was going to type. Every time i am logged into both and i search a new song it logs me of of my personal account. Now I remember now I was going to tell you guys/ gals my new favorite song is old but i still love it!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q05sx5vKVoc I am beautiful in a way cuz' God makes no mistakes... ;D

STAR Reading

I just finished taking a computerized assessment called STAR reading. It wasn't a big challenge but it wasn't easy peasy. Now everyone around me is quietly reading Roll of Thunder , Hear my Cry.  Niya.

The book is about  when African Americans had just been let out of slavery and there is an African  American  family that learns about how to face racism.



I don't really like the book.

Weekennnnnnd ! : ))

This weekend I am going with a lot of friends to the movies. The first movie I will be sure to see is Hunger Games. That book has inspired because it talked about family love, crushes and how people were willing to kill their self for each other. I will be sure to tell about the movie when I come back! - Tinkaa

Music

I  love music, it's like medicine to me whenever I have a bad day or I am not feeling well I listen to music. I don't know why but it is like my pride and joy. I never like being told I cant listen to music or that I can't sing it. Even when I am not audibly singing, I hear it in my head. You might think I'm crazy or something but I don't care I just love it SO much.. Y'all wanna know some of my favorite artists!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Well sorry there is not enough space for all of that but I will say I like most genres of music except for most country........ Sorry Ms.Humphries :S.
Until next time, always listen to your mother and eat your vegetables.

Love,

Niya

Rayne's Homework

Chapter 3 • Why does the driver of the white children’s school bus splash
the Logan children with mud?
               As you know, they treated colored people differently then so when the bus splashed the kids, it was their way of saying, we dislike you. White's always got treated with way more respect and instead of the bus stopping it kept going as of to say, yo udon't deserve any respect.
• How do the children get their revenge on the white bus driver
and his passengers? Do you think this was right?
               The kids got their revenge by digging holes in the ground that are soon filled with rain. The bus got stuck in the washout. I don't think it was right because now anything can happen to them now that they got their revenge. Soon, the white men will find out who did it and the Logan's may get the same results that the Berry's did.
• What might it feel like to be the only person in town to have a
big, fancy car?
                   I think it might feel daring because people may get jealous and may be willing to do anything in order to take that car away from you. People might try to flat your tires, bust your windows or even steal the car. So, to me, it's daring.

Hello to you people who have just tuned into this wonderful blog. Well I'll start off by introducing my self..... Hi, I'm Niya. I am the oldest of 5 children and I was born and raised in Washington, DC. I am the type of person you have to get to know to see my true colors. I would describe myself as jocular ( nice word), outgoing, and "hard-headed" (my mother).I only want to do things when I am not asked to..... I guess I am "hard-headed". I love love love love music and food, that is why when I grow up I want to be a chef. This is a school blog, that is why there are  homework assignments. There are posts  of our own too. You may be wondering who is "our", I had 3 partners NCC, Armari, and Rayne. Now it's really just me, Rayne, and Amari because our dear friend NCC had to transfer schools. Well, on that note..... Until next time, always listen to your mother and eat your vegetables!

   With love,

Niya

Leap Year Pope

In the 1400's a man named Paul III was born on leap year. He became Pope Paul III later in the 1500's. Leap year is every four years when there are 29 days in February. As everyone should know, there are only 28 days in February except for every for years which is what we call Leap Year. 

Peace

      To me, the whole world is peaceful. I think the only reason there is peace is because of the governmental laws. If it weren't for laws, we would be living in a state of nature. In a state of nature anything is capable to happen because there would not be any laws. To me, that is not peaceful. Others may have their opinion but that's exactly what it is to everyone, an opinion. Everyone thinks that just because there are crimes every where that the world is a violent but it really isn't true. It's all just opinions. Maybe life isn't going good for them or they live in a neighborhood where it is violent. Those of some of the cases in which people may think the world is violent. Others may live in a good neighborhood where there aren't may crime so they may think the world is not violent. I personally think it's depending on where you live and your opinion. I don't think the world is violent because like I said above, we could be living in a state of nature or we could even be living under someone else control. Like we were long ago when Great Britain took over the colonists. That's is when people may think the world is a violent place but comparing then to now, we have made big changes. We could even still be in war which is violent, but we aren't. To say that the world is a violent place is opinions, but to me, it's really not.

homework

 

This reminds me of the mysterious islands we are learning about because all of these places are myths. They are not real place or people think they are real places. They both have something in common: water. Atlanis(Thera), Easter Island, and Knosssos are all  islands. Bikini Bottom is an underwater city. I believe in a few of the episodes they had a king named Neptune and I think he was  from Atlantis. Neptune was a merman.

 

The picture with the three houses of Patrick, Squidward, and Spongebob (left to right) sort of reminds me of the different islands because when I think of pineapples I think of tropical islands. This also reminds me of Easter Island because of Squidward's home. It looks like one of the statues on Easter Island. Patrick's rock does not help me at all think of how Spongebob relates to The Lost Cities of Legend. Until next time, always listen to your mother and eat your vegetables.
