This article was about how research proved playing video games can actually be good for your health. Also how certain types of video games help you in different games help you in different ways.

By reading this article i had some reflections about it. I used to think playing video games was bad for your brain. everyone would say that it was a waste of time. Now, by reading this article, i think video games can be good for your brain in some ways. this article was very convincing.

I chose this specific game because you have a lot of freedom and choice. You can be good and beat the game or be bad and put in prison. Theres also a war. You can choose sides or not be involved at all. You can do side quests. There is also many other details like getting married!   

This article was about how researchers thought kids under 11 shouldn’t play tackle football. They tested adults that played it when they were over and under 11. they gave them a test and the ones who played it over 11 tested better. 

I think kids under 11 should be able to play tackle football. I know lots of kids that play tackle football that are under 11 and under that play tackle football. My 8 year old brother is going to start playing tackle football. When i played tackle football i would get hurt sometimes but no brain trauma!

When reading this article it brought up some questions. Why would they have tackle football if they thought they were to young? I want to know  because tackle has been going on for a while and just now it is being noticed. How do they know they had brain trauma? Just because they didn’t do as good on the test as the others doesn’t mean they have brain trauma!

Bull Run was one of many important battles of the civil war. “The american civil war, widely known to the united states as simply the Civil War. The civil war, fought from 1861to 1865 to determine the survival of the union or the independence of the south. Slavery as also a very important subject in the American Civil War.”[wikipedia]. There was one battle, the first battle, he battle of Bull Run. There where many details, much happened, and it was very, very important.

One important battle in the war was called Bull Run. It took place on July 21, 1861 in the state of Virginia. “Confederate rienforcements extended and broke the unions right flank!” [CivilWar.org]. Irvin McDowell was leading the union troops and P.G.T Bearegard and Joseph E. Jhonston led the confederates in the battle. The union troops where untraned compared to the confederate soldiers because the confederate troops farmed and had more experience with guns. People even came to watch this  bloody battle for entertainment! Bull Run was a horrible, bloody battle.

In the battle of Bull Run, many things happened. Neither side was clearly winning. It kept going back and fourth all day but, unfortunately, the confederacy won the battle. The confederacy won because a whole new wave of troops showed up and outnumbered the union and defeated them. “The union defeat was a huge shock for the north.”

The battle of Bull Run was a very important battle of many in the civil war. In Bull Run, it was a shock the confederacy won. The union thought they would win the battle and the war would be over. But that wasn’t the case. “By July 22 the shattered union army reached the safety of Washington.” The union army decided to retreat! This was not what anyone was expecting. This showed that the the war would not be quick, it would be long, hard, and bloody. That is why Bull run is an important battle in the civil war. 

In conclusion, Bull Run was a very important battle in the civil war. Bull Run had many important details that changed the outcome, many important events happened in the war that changed America.

Have you ever experienced having a dog as a companion? They are loving,caring,and loyal. All those traits should be what a good companion is. Like Daisy, in Wonder,she is all of those things. Like my dog Chief. 

First Daisy is very,very comforting to August. She is always there when August is sad. On page 113 when August is crying,Daisy was there to lick up the tears, like she always does when August is sad. Also on page 180 Daisy was in Augusts room with August and Jack. Daisy was being very sweet and nice to the both of them.

Next, Daisy is fair. She doesn’t judge by looks. To her everyone looks the same. On page 82, Via mentions that how to her she sees everyone as the same,pale,flat face. Even August! Another example is on page 80. She was treating Auggie and Jack the same. Even though August doesn’t look normal.

Lastly Daisy is very loyal to August. Daisy loves everyone but seems to favor August most. She sleeps with August every night. Does she sleep with Via? NO! On page 98, Daisy sleeps with Via. But not in her free will. She was in Auggie’s room before she was brought into Via’s room.

 King,Fluffy, and Badkitty three courageous kitties with a taste for catnip. One gloomy day in the 20 acres worth of land meant to protect the catnip sanctuary was was attacked! As more……”Jimmy! you burnt the popcorn!” yelled Frank angrily. As the ginormous door opened to more catnip being put inside. Then all of the sudden, a huge helicopter swooped down and grabbed half the catnip inside!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Then the helicopter flew away.

 But, before it was long gone King grabbed an rpg water balloon launcher and shot a cat through the door. It hit him and he fell in a river never to be seen again. But that wasn’t enough. The helicopter still got away. 

PAGE 2

So after the sudden attack it was total chaos! Fluffy,King,and Badkitty were enraged about this. They ran as fast as they could to a black and white helicopter located 50 yards from the safe. Badkitty drove the helicopter full speed the direction the red helicopter went.

They arrived at a huge metal door. “Do you think this is where thet went?” said Fluffy. “I think so.” replied King. The three cats slowly opened the metal door.

PAGE 3  

The door creaked as it opened. The three cats glared down into the hole and what they saw blew their mind!! There were cats every were hauling stolen catnip and other cats guarding the cats hualing the catnip. They returned and told every cat about it. All of the cats reaction was that it was a sign of war. One of the cats is going to tell the C.E.A, catnip enforcement agency. They will send cats to set this right. After 3 days an army of cats arrived. Time to fight.

PAGE 4

to this sight the cats felt like jumping in glee. But the three cats  could not wait. That same day the three returned to the same door they found earlier. They once again open the door. But this time instead of running away they jumped in! They start throwing water balloons and shooting water guns everywhere. But they are out numbered and out gunned. They were able to escape. 2 days later the general received a letter from the place and it said there was going to be a battle on monay at 3:00 p.m. He knew instantly it was because of those three and confronted them.

PAGE 5

The general told them they were crazy and they shouldn’t have done that. They were ashamed and walked away in shame. 9:00 p.m. they went to bed. Now 2:00 p.m. time for battle. They convinced the general to let them battle while the other troops were doing some last minute training. They gear up for an hour. It’s now 3:00 P.M. Time to battle.

PAGE 6

The general ordered the cats to march toward the edge of the acres. They reached their destination in about 20 minutes. They come to find a small army dressed in red. Suddenly a cat yells “attack!!!!” All the cats start throwing water everywhere. The other army was very untrained. It would not be very hard to defeat them. The three stayed in a group and were hitting the other cats around them. Hitting almost every cat they shoot at. The battle continued until the other army surrendered and scurries out of their as fast as they could.

PAGE 7

“We won!!!!!!!” cats started yelling at the top of their lungs. “Dang it Jimmy! You have burnt the popcorn for the for the fifth time in a row! Oh I forgot to tell you, this whole story was all a T.V. show Frank was watching.

FIN.

Auggie actualy liked school now. No one was playing those stupid games any more. He actually started to make other friends to. The only people still doing that were Julion,Miles,and Henry. Other wise everyone was nice to him. He was finally feeling normal. And everyone treated him like that. He was happy now.

Wonder

If i could ask any character 3 questions  i would ask Jack Will. The first one would be do you even see August as a friend? He could just be pretending to be a friend of August. From what Jack said he’s no better than Julion! My second question is, would you really kill yourself if you were August? I could see if you were sad but killing yourself! Thats insane! If he would feel so horrible whhy not try to be Augusts friend to make him feel better. My last question is why do you have a problem with August being your friend? Just because he doesn’t look normal doesn’t cage anything else. He’s just like every one else. Its what is on the inside that counts.

The book i am reading is about a kid named August. He has a has horrible birth defect that makes his face really ugly. After being home schooled for his whole life he now has to go to 5th grade at a regular school. He has been betrayed by his best friend and bullied by other  kids. Its a great book I would really recommend it.

A girl comes to their table and tells Summer to come back to their table and when she sees August she just walked away. Then they agree that only people with summer names or if they were nice you could sit at the table.
