100 Word Challenge

 Today in English we wrote a 100 word challenge. We had to write it about a girl named Stracey and how she found out why no one went into the class room number 12. I put a bit of a horror twist on it so it was very fun to read. Enjoy :)

English - Novel Study

 Today in English we are starting a Novel Study. The novel we are going to read is called Unwind. I have never heard of this book before but apparently they are making it into a movie too. All we know about this book it that it is a dystopian world, and we know what the cover looks like. So, based off of the cover we have to answer some questions about the book. Here is a photo reference so you can get an understanding of what i'm seeing.

 How do you think this story will be written ?

I think this story will be written in first person because most books are and they are easy to read.

Why do you think the story is entitled as it is ?

I think its titled at this because it could be like a back to the future type of thing or I could be completely wrong.

Where do you think the story will take place ?

I think it will probably be in america somewhere but in my head I picture somewhere really snowy.

What time period do you think the story is set in ?

I think it could be set in anywhere from the 1950's to the late 2000's.

Slam Dunk Paragraph ~ The Middle Ages

Here is my paragraph about life in the middle ages. Enjoy.

What was life like in the middle ages? Well interestingly it was different for the rich and poor. Rich people like the King and Queen lived in castles, ate lots of food and got to shower everyday. On the other hand poor people lived on farms ate at least twice a week and hardy showered. This was important because if we didn't have these differences then we would now and we would probably be at world war 16 by now. Yes, they all had their differences but people are just people and they should be treated the same.
