End of the Year Trap

On June 17 2009. The time was at 8.00 a.m. We all left to Lake Compounce. It is in Connecticut. It was an 3 hours ride from the school to over. It took one hour to get on the bus.
when we all got on the bus. People were all talking, running around and playing or listing to music. on the bus they put on an movie. But No one was seeing the movie.

When we all got there we all were happy we were not on the bus. Lots of people went to the bathroom. They when we were all done we got into group. There were 8 people in my group.
The first ride we got on was "The wild cat". 2nd one we went on was "The wipeout". 3 nd was "Down Time" Ride #4 was "Giant Wheel" Then we went on the "Saw Mill plunge". 5 place was the "zoomerang" Then we went to eat. They on the "Pirate Ship" Next was the "Boompercar". Last we went on the "wipeout". Then we came back to the school.

The bus ride home was longer then going. It was about 4 hour long. We were see the batman movie some people did see this movie. Even that some people where sleeping. But they where allot of car on the road at that time.

Write a 3 paragraph blog about how name-calling affects people.

How powerful is the language that we use? Why do people call each other names? How often do you call people names? Do you think about how the person might feel when you call them the name? How often do you see others being called name? Is there anyone in your school who is teased for being Gay? How do you think people feel when they are constantly teased?

Why does Petrocelli call Steve a "Monster"? What metaphors do you compare people to when you name call? How does Steve feel about being called a monster? What does he doe after he is called a monster? Do you think Steve feels like a monster? Do you think Steve is a monster? Do you think he is innocent or guilty?

Do you think the jury sees Steve as a monster? If you were on the jury would you think Steve was a monster? Why? why not? Why did Steve title his book monster?


When some one make fun of another person. It made not look like it hearting them but. It made him hearting in the inside. Like calling him gay, or fat. I sometime make fun of other. But when I do make fun of them I make sure that it was playing.
But the time I see other make fun of other. They are make other feel bad.

The Petrocelli was calling him a monster. That made him feel bad because they made him feel like one. They made him He start to call him one also. So it was hearting him in some way.

I think that the jury sees Steve as a monster because is it say inn the book "he's black, he's young, and he's in jail." I wound not think of him as an monster if I was an jury. I wound think of him as one when they now he was one of the people that kill men.

Hi!

This is the firs time day that I am going to write in you.I am doing this because I am to sad to talk to some one and also that I don't have no friends too talk other then Mark and Doggie. Mark is a new kid that I meet here at the orphanage. He is pretty nice to me. He is the one kid here that talk to me at least. And Doggie is my animal that the nun gave me. When I got it was the own time i was happy.I think I might ask the nun if I could keep him when my come get come to get. One of the nun here told me that she might not come to get me. I think that she lie. Just to get me sad. Or maybe she say the true I think!!!

Sincerely

Jennings
