Beowulf
on This year in humanities we studied the med evil era. We read a book called Beowulf. It is an old epic poem. It is about a hero. When we were reading the book we head to annotate. That means we had to underline important parts, circle and define vocabulary and write a chapter summary. Annotating is important because it helps you look back in things that you can’t find if you didn’t annotate. I am very proud of my chapter summary’s because they help me understand what happened in the chapter without reading the chapter. I want to improve on defining vocab because there was a lot of words in the book I didn’t know.
Mandarin
on This is one of the quizlet sets I study. We use quizlet to help us study for Mandarin for stuff like test and quizzes. This is an example of a video that we watched to help us with Mandarin.
Ashokan Trip
on 
Ashokan was okay. The only fun part was the ropes course. It was very interesting how I was suspended above the ground it was like I was flying. I also liked blacksmith because I learned how metal is bent. There was a lot of things this year that we didn’t get to do last year like, Blacksmith, and the ropes course. My favorite part of the hole trip was the meals. The food was so good. I was so sad at our last meal because the food was good and Grace couldn’t stop talking but I was so happy when we left because I really didn’t like the trip.
Before and After of Math notebook

Before After
In the before image you can notice that my work is a lot less organized on the page.
However in the before image everything is neatly written on the page.
Also in the before image there is no date and title but in the after one there is.
My Beowulf Project
on 
This is my Beowulf project. What we had to do was draw a picture of a character or a setting in the Beowulf book. To get a sense of what we were trying to draw we used quotes and characteristics. So the first thing we did was find quotes and characteristics in the book (oh and bye the way we had to draw the FEN). Then after that we started to draw the picture from the description from the quotes and characteristics. I found this project really hard since we had to use the characteristics and quotes and not our imagination. I learned from this project that when you get information from the book it makes your project way clearer.

Eli’s Hero Essay by Eli Harris
on People who are solution oriented, risk takers, positive and are driven by passion should be heroes. Also when you’re a hero you have to have both mental and physical strength. When you have these traits in a problem, you can get through it. Heroes arise through problems when they are driven by their passion. When Jackie Robinson was fighting for his rights he showed heroic traits, but when Ulysses was to get home he only showed stereotypical heroic qualities. That shows he is not a hero.
When Ulysses was trying to get home from Troy he showed heroic qualities like strength but being strong does not mean you are a hero. Being strong is one thing, but when being a hero you also need to have mental strength. After Ulysses stabs Polyphemus in the eye, Polyphemus tells Poseidon to punish Ulysses. Ulysses gets punished for not thinking. If you want to be a hero you need to have mental strength and physical strength.
My modern day hero is Jackie Robinson and he is a hero because he got through all the hard times the white people were giving him. When you have hundreds of people yelling at you about you playing the sport you love (or doing the things you love) and then you are driven with your passion, you are a hero. When Jackie Robinson got up to bat, people would yell hurtful words at him and he was not allowed to fight back. He scores a run to show them he is meaningful. With Jackie Robinson’s passion of the sport, he drives through the problems he had. When you have a problem but get through it with your passion, you are a hero.
What if there was no racism in the world? In the modern world there is still racism and there needs to be a hero that steps up and fights against it like Jackie Robinson. I am inspired by Jackie Robinson because he was fighting for his rights. The reason of writing this essay is when you read it you are going to want to be a better person and have the traits of a hero. If there were no heros in the world problems would occur all over the place. That is why we should remember heroes.
The reason we wrote this essay is because without heroes in the world problems would occur all over the place so heroes are very important.
