2017-18 learning value

This year I am focusing on classroom citizenship. I chose this because I’m not a pro at it yet, but I’m trying to get better on being a better member of our community. I understand sometimes being a good citizen can be hard sometimes, but it’s important to try to be the best citizen you can be. To be a good community member you need to treat everyone with equal respect and integrity, and you need to find a way to treat everyone with kindness, genuine kindness, because if we are nice to each other conflict wont happen and without conflict we can get our work done easier and faster.

Initiative is really important because, if your not working your hardest why are you even here. Initiative is all about working hard and finding ways to work even harder, for example in colonial Williamsburg,  if you went up to people and tried to get information without asking a teacher if you can, is initiative. Initiative is about not being afraid to try new things, and not being scared to learn with new and exciting information.

Max T. Eye Drawing

I started this portrait by drawing all the lines and then finding the dark points on my eye, then drawing and shading in those points. I did all the iris shading first before I touched on anything else, because it is in the center of the picture so people will notice it more so I wanted it to be the best part. I would add shading detail everywhere because I feel like I’ve gotten better at it during this project.

The man who smiled

 

 

All of them giving into the hate

Except one

Him

He stands grimacing

Arms folded

Knowing what he believes in

Making a change

Not surrendering

But doing what he can

To fight it

Knowing that he could be killed

Or his family

And still he does it because he believes in it

In change

In love

Not in hate

Like the rest of them  

 

The man who said no

How to deal with awful parents #2

Last time I told you how to deal with awful parents, let’s keep going. You have to find the good in your parents to deal with the bad parts, I think that even though I had to watch Dadi wrestle another man, He also bought me a puppy and he makes all the money for our family. Another tip I have is to figure have a family member step in and break the awkwardness, like when I was having a few issues with Dadi and then we went to Murad and Hamir’s house, and everyone was so happy I got to see the good side of Dadi.  The second to last tip I have is to use the world around you to put your conflict behind you. Like when I was mad at Dadi and the sandstorm hit and Grandfather died, which means that we can’t focus on the conflict and instead are working on a common goal. Or when Grandfather couldn’t be buried with his brothers in arms, and we had to find a way to get him in there and we did not fulfill his wish so we had to bury him outside of the town, but at least we got to keep his fez and sword in an honored place.

How to deal with awful parents

I hate everything. I don’t feel any happiness anymore my life my soul my fun is gone. I feel  dead inside and nothing will fill the whole Guluband left. Dadi didn’t even try to get Guluband back he only tried to stop me from getting to Guluband. I don’t know what i’ll do it has been a few days since he left Dadi tried to cheer me up by buying me a puppy but it’s just not Guluband. Guluband was a part of me I need in my life and without him I will not be happy ever. I hate Dadi he lies and sells parts of me away just for money he hes given up on trying to make me feel better and he even stopped talking to me. I feel like a bangle with no wrist to lift it up so it I lie on the ground depressed and not feeling much emotion. So this is how to deal with awful parents. The first tip to deal with awful parents is to show that you feel sad and make sure that you know that they know that you are NOT okay. Spend more time with the one you like more. When I saw that he was wrestling with the other man I felt really sad that he was my dad so I started spending time with sharma and mama. The last tip I have to deal with awful parents is you have to find the good in life. When Guluband was gone I was obviously really sad and when we got sher dil I realised that Guluband will always be with me.

Guild Night

I was in the medicine guild. Guild night was surprising because I had people who were a lot more patient than I thought they would be, almost everyone who came to my guild was really patient, they listened to what I had to say and let my explain confusing things without being annoying. I had a lot of fun doing it because it was better than what I expected, I expected it to be annoying with all the people asking me to do the same things.  I didn’t like how hot is was it was really hot and annoying, near the end I had an asthma attack so I was really uncomfortable.

muscular system artistic overview

In science Luca, Harrison, and I are studying the muscular system, and the three types of muscles, (cardiac, smooth and skeletal). Some fun things about the muscular system are, one: the walls of the digestive track are actually muscles, Two: cardiac muscles are involuntary meaning you can’t move them but they are striated like voluntary muscles which you can move.

 

 

 

spring break lesson

This spring break I went to the Caribbean with another family, because there were two families on the trip I only had three other kids to spend time with. One of the four kids was my friends sister, she always is really mean to me and annoys me to levels no other human being can annoy me to. Because I had to spend a lot of time with somebody this annoying I was sometimes got a tiny bit angry during this trip. Since sometimes I  would get angry during the trip the other kids would gang up on my where there’s nothing I can really do. Because of this I snapped, and left, I just needed to not be around people that made me feel like a worse person. For the rest of the trip I spent about half as much time with the three other kids and started following things I cared about. It was also really nice to spend time with one of my friends who made my feel good about myself. Now if anyone is making me feel bad or just annoying you way too much than you just leave. My goal is to just leave more often, anytime I just can’t spend time with someone, I leave. I am annoyed or I just want to be alone, I leave. The reason leaving things when you are feeling annoyed is good is because you can think about anything and clear your mind.
