1) when i first started at this school i was a good student. now i have gotten more comfortable and now its just like my old school fun. i have alot more fiends than in the beginning of the year.


2) animal farm. i didn't like it because it was about Russian politics and i don't really care for our politics. and to characterise them as talking animals that take over the farm. its kind of kiddish the way they did that.

3) again animal farm was the hardest. i didn't rise to the occasion because i didn't like the book. it was basically boring so i didn't read it.


4) my favorite topic was probably night by Eli Wiesel. it made think about what the people at those camps had to go throu. it also helped me wright one of my favorite papers.

5) try your hardest and do the work because when you seen the F on your report card it makes you feel like crap. don't quit school just because its hard its supposed challenge you.

UNDERAGE DRINKING

1.48% of students in 8th grade in Sussex have tryed alcohol compared to 41% in the nation.
88% of students in 12th grade in Sussex have tryed alcohol compared to 75% in the nation.

2. alot of people under age drink. Their is no stopping them. They can get it any time they want. its not really surprising that the statistics look like this. the people can get any thing they want. some of it could be pressure from their friends.


3.I think the do it because they are not allowed to. They like to disobey and to do it because of the way it makes them feel. if you say they cant have it what will they want? what they cant have. so that could be the biggest reason. think back to when you were a kid when your parents said you cant touch that what did you do you touched it. so think about that when you see the statistics of kids who have tryed alcohol.

I think that people do grow up too fast. Alot of kids know about thing they shouldn't. They know about drugs, they already have jobs, and they know about other things. Some kids are supporting there family wile in high school. Some kids take care of their parents. This happens because the parent are ether on drugs lazy or poor.



His life is different because he takes care of his sister with his own money. His mom is married to a abusive man who has hit Gerald before. The man is a drunk and has a bad temper. Gerald is holding down a job to keep the family from living on the street. He has more responsibilities than a high school student should.



Handle a difficult situation- I was at my friends house and we were messing around and broke a picture frame. We were worried his parents would find out so we tried to wood glue it back together. But that didn't work. So we tied to screw it back together and it didn't work at first. But then the screw started going in and we put it all back together then hung it back up. No one found out it was broken.

CHAPTER 9

BOXER SPLIT HIS FOOT OPEN AND WAS SENT TO THE SLAUGHTER HOUSE. THIS WAS IN CHAPTER 9. THE COMMANDMENTS WERE COMPLETELY ALTERED. NOW TWO LEGS ARE BETTER THAN FOUR LEGS.

CHAPTER 10

MANY ANIMALS START DIEING OFF LIKE MURIEL, BLUEBELL, JESSY, AND PINCHER. THE SUPPLIES ARE STARTING TO RUN LOW ND THAT IS THE REASON FOR SOME DEATHS. THEY BUILT ANOTHER WIND MILL FOR POWER AND MONEY.

Plain Folks this was used in the book alot it was used in pretty much every chapter. they use it to get any thing they want. squealer dishes it out they take it in. Bandwagon this is how most animals felt in the book they felt it was so popular every one was thinking it was a good idea they went against thire own opinion for that reason only. Black and White Thinking this was mostly the whole book it was the whole concept. you have a different opinion you are a traitor. then you are banned. Name calling this is used when some one in a campaine wants to win really bad. they will trash the oponint in stead of telling what they will. Glittering Generalitieso this is used to make some thing bad seem good. the government uses this all the time. they make us belive what they did is not that bad.

WHY?

What I am doing here I don't know but to have that fear of death is scary. To have a gun pointed at me and being told I will be shot if I don't move faster is scary. I have no strength and I need food and water. I hope this ends soon I can’t take any more of it I will die sooner than I can live if I don't get food or water now. Where will I go when I leave here what will happen to me if my parents die what if I die? I am only six what have I done that is so wrong that I deserve this treatment. This cant be happening this must be a dream this will end when I wake up just let me wake up. What if I never wake up what if I sleep for ever and this lasts for ever. What have we done that is so wrong that we must be treated like animals? I hear people say this is just the beginning what can be worse than this I cant even imagine any thing more horrible than this. They are also saying we are heading to a camp. How can camp be bad when I think of camp I think out doors and camp fires. Although people do say I’m right about the fire. Some say I could die by fire. When the men with guns talk to us they always say some thing like "move Jew." is that why we are here? Our religion is why we are being killed like this. Is it so bad to believe in some thing else? If so I’m sorry ill stop. Just stop pointing that gun at me please. I have done nothing wrong so WHY?
