Week 16 Quiz

Poetry Gallery Walk


    We started off class by watching the take a minute video and then reading Zoe and Ryan's blog. They then picked me to do the next blog so I asked Nylah to do it with me and she said yes. Then we took out our English notebooks and got ready for the quiz. Once we got done with the quiz people were just finishing their poetry collections. We did that for the rest of class. Till we had to do our gallery walks and I was printing and typing the rest of my poetry collection I don't want ANYONE reading mine. Then the bell rang and we went to lunch.

Week 16: Song/lines

HW: NaPo WriMo Submissions due May 8th

After Aiden read his blog, he decided to pick Ryan and I to do the next blog. After that, we did or Week 16 Song called "Keep Ya Head Up" by Tupac Shakur which was about guiding women and moms. And also questioning men on why they treat women the way they do. We then started talking about mothers day and how we should be kind to the kids and women in our life because you never know what they are going through. We then start doing our lines and we read the poem "Learning to Love America" by Shirley Geok-Lin Lim. Which was about how it's hard to love a country. And then, for some reason we started talking about how we eat artichokes and how good they are. When talking about the lines, Demetrius walked past Ryan and I. Demetrius then said, "Look at RyRy and Zozo." Ryan then fist bumped Demitrious and I thought they were so cool. I then flexed my money at Jackson. After that, we talked about what the Poem was about. We then started to work on our NaPoWriMo submissions. That's it for today!

NaPoWriMo submissions due may 8th

Poetry Slam May 12th


We walked into class after period 3 left, and sat in our seats. As we started writing our agendas, Ms. Nakada put on the Take a Minute, which was comparing challenges to waves (I think.). After taking a minute, Lena read her blog and picked me because someone told her to. Once I walked up, Ms. Nakada told us the question, and we wrote down our personal answers before discussing. We started talking about our answers, and Ms. Nakada made a comparison between Her and Mr. Hastings, and how their moral compasses are different. After we Discussed, we started our NaPoWriMo submissions, and people started working. I finished my Poetry Collection last week, so I'm just doing my broadside now, and my poetry performance I guess. It's a short day today, so I'm ending the blog here, and the bell is about to ring. 


I choose Kate, or whoever the class picks to go that hasn't gone yet.

Week 16: grammar - quote

NaPoWriMo Submissions

Ms. Nakada began class with a take a minute, and then we skipped Blog reading and wrote in our note books. We wrote down two grammar words. The words were "poetry", and "revisions". 

After that, Ms. Nakada gave us the quote of the week. This quote was written by Fred Korematsu. She told us about how Fred got arrested, and more of his story. She explained how he wrote this poem about his life story. She states that he is a Japanese American activist. This quote means that you should stand up for what you know is right, even if others don't believe the same thing.



Ms. Nakada showed us how to do our Broadside poem. Then, she gave us quiet time for us to work on the project. I finished the project, and I think I did pretty well. After we did that, she told us to begin packing up and cleaning up. That was the end of class today.

We started off the day by Stuart and Bennet reading their blog, and Ms. Nakada kept telling Bennet to stop hitting Stuart. We then jumped into catching up on our poems. Then, moving on to the paper, we worked on the day before about "There Are Birds Here" by Jamal May. Next, we worked on "Hope" by Emily Dickinson. Then, Solomon told Ms. Nakada he was going to cry. After that, we started a plan to write an essay about if we should or shouldn't keep poetry in school. Finally, we stapled our papers together πŸ‘½

HW: Read and write a poem a day.

We started off class with a clear mind and did our take a minute. Nuh uh, you were busy drawing. When Bennett and Asal did their wonderful blog, and they didn't choose anyone, so I stepped up and did the blog I forced Bennett to do the blog with me because, I didn't wanna do it with anyone else. I was drawing as Bennett was searching up stuff, and I was listening to what to do for the test, how to come in relaxed and to eat a good breakfast. Then, someone asked about cortisol and, we learned it was related to stress levels.  Zach asked if he had Low Coritsol. Just after that, we got an assignment.

You spent like 10 min on that, bro. πŸ˜”✌πŸ’”

Bennett wouldn't type much since he isn't nice, but we were then doing an assignment that Ms. Nakada passed out to everyone. It's good. I'm smart since, the assignment was pretty easy.ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ α΄— - ˵ ) ✧

You did not even do it yet and I did the blog last time.(¬_¬")

Then, after the assignment we wrote our poem and our prompt was unidentified. Then, Zack had some questions about the poem prompt. Then, we packed up and left.

HW: Read and Write a Poem a Day

Today's class started pretty nice after all of the pushing outside. I zoned out, then Asal asked if I did the fifth blog yet, and I said no. After that, we took the quiz, and Asal got a higher score than me, and yet she still was unhappy with it.

Okay Bennett, you don't have to say that. Anyway. While everyone finished their quizzes, I finished my thirtieth poem. Bennett was reading some of my poems while I wrote the blog.

After a little bit some pizza came in, and Asal and I wanted to eat some of it because of the smell. Then, we started reading our daily poem. After that we something happened that I am not going to put in the blog. After all of that we got done with that we started talking about the poem.

We found out that the captain in the poem is actually Abraham Lincoln, and the ship is the country. Lastly, we had some time to write poems. After that, we finished class, and packed up.
