Short Play for Social Studies:
By Aria and Megan
Characters-
Loyalist - Fred
Patriot - Ben
Neutral - Jessica
_____________________
Narrarator: A long time ago in 1754, a fight was breaking out among a patriot, a loyalist, and a neutral citizen.
Jessica: Oh boy! Looks like a war will be starting, and I need a side to join! The only problem is, I don't know what side to choose!
Fred: Join the loyalists! We are obviously going to win! We have King George III on our side! He is teeming with power and will provide his soldiers with anything they need to survive!
Ben: I think NOT! The loyalists take all of our profits for there stinkin' taxes, and we are left with nothing! Not only that but they will not let us for independence!!!
Narrarator: Fred and Ben bickered back and forth, until Jessica stopped the fight with her dessicion.
Fred: I think that Ben is just over exaggerating King George III and I--
Jessica: STOP! I have had enough! My dessicion is final, and I know who I will pick. You both had great reasons and good offers, but the side side that is fit for me, is the Patriots!
Ben: Yay! In your face Fred! Hahaha!
Fred: This is not over!
Ben: Oh but it is!
Narrarator: And they lived happily ever after. The End!

Chicago.
My mom went on a trip to Chicago yesterday. It was a business trip for her work. She works at a company called RGIS. RGIS is a company the counts food items in stores and tells the owners how many items they have in the stores. My mom is coming home soon from the trip. In fact she should be home any minute!!

Poetry Slam
Today we had the poetry slam at my school. I performed a poem alone called Lyin' Larry. It is a really funny poem and I really like it. It has lots of action and I did lots of movements to go along with it. My friends Mia, Vivian, and Ania also performed poems. Mia and Vivian wrote there's and Ania got hers from the internet.

Complaint Letter Final Draft 4/21/14

Dear, Mr. Joseph
Recently I have been constantly bothered by the fact that your students in Language Arts and Social Studies both seem to not take other students feeling into effect. The students are always talking out of turn. Whenever I am trying to work I am hardly ever productive because so many of your students talk to there friends when you specifically mention beforehand that it is individual work time.
Selfishness leads to this problem. When kids are to busy talking to there friends they are not being productive as well as making the kids around them not productive as well. I feel that the kids are affecting others work and will continue to talk until a teacher tells them to stop. Which almost never
happens.
It was about a month ago when we were taking the unit test for writing. I of course was very into my work and was writing away when suddenly one of the kids not to far from where I was sitting started talking to there friends. I tried to concentrate but the kids kept on talking. Of course no one would tell them to stop so I was kept from finishing my test and had to do it for homework.
I want all kids good or bad to be able to work in a noise and distraction free environment. But, currently that has not been the case. My fellow student, Aria M. agrees with me. "People should focus on there work and NOT there friends" she says. Aria also says that recently the kids around her have been to busy talking about games and not doing there work. She said that they are effecting the kids around them including her preventing her from doing her work. Proving my point entirely.
I proposing a solution to this work preventing problem. Teachers, should try to enforce the rules of working. When they just "let it slide" it makes kids believe you don't take them seriously and they will keep doing it.
In conclusion, this is a problem that needs fixing to help kids like me be able to work harder and not be bothered by others.
Sincerely,
Megan C

Easter Eggs.
Right now we are dying Easter eggs for Easter tomorrow. I am going to dye mine pink and if we have stickers I will put a few of those on it. Tomorrow I will eat my egg but don't worry it is hard boiled so if it drops on the ground when we are dying it the yolk won't spill on the floor.
