Creative Writing Q3 #2

Continued from Creative Writing 1

To find the killer bear was David’s next mission. He’s already discovered Bigfoot but it was time to step up his game. He had bigger and better things on his mind. He had heard of a myth about a mysterious animal in Antarctica named the killer bear. It lived on the land and in the water. It was a slick, 20ft long half polar bear half fish. It was the fastest in the sea and the strongest on the land. He wondered if it was even real, there hasn’t been any proof, only two people have talked about it. Unlike his past adventure, he wanted to prepare for this one. He knew he had a slim chance of getting out but he didn’t about that.  All he wanted was an adventure and he was going to get it. He managed to get down to Antarctica but realized he had no shelter. He built an igloo, and he brought logs and matches for a fire he fell right asleep in his igloo when he ole up he was freezing cold. He looked out and saw he was just on a little chunk of ice drifting away from the area. Luckily he had a survival kit. Suddenly he started rocking back and forth . The waves were getting bigger and bigger, and he looked out and saw a figure in the water. They came face to face when he was knocked into the water. He was all of then a sudden at the bottom of the ocean. And that was the last time anyone ever saw him.

Interactive Scrapbook

Wherever Mark Twain went he would have his scrapbooks with him filling them out. As kids him and his friends would want to be steam boatsmen. He lived on a riverboat for nearly 20 years.

From pictures the clothes were very different back then compared now. Life as a kid was very different; you had freedom and parents didn’t care where you were as long as you were home for dinner.

What was life like being one of the most famous writers?

iPad App Review

The App I chose is “Trivia Crack.” The reason I chose this one is because it is fun, but you’re learning at the same time. So what you do is you play against other players. You can play against your friends, too.  There is a wheel of a variety of subjects, such as sports, history, science, geography, art, and entertainment. You spin the wheel and it randomly lands on one section. If you answer the question right, you try to answer another question, if you get it wrong, your opponent has two days to answer or it’s a forfeit, and the same goes for you. The questions are random to the topic you spin on.  The goal is to get six logos.  When you get six logos, you win.

I would recommend this app because it makes learning fun and it is easy to use.

guerrilla-farming-571d2eb3.jpg.885x491_q90_box-0,19,5760,3216_crop_detailThe article I read was, “New, Young Farmers Compete for Land.” The date of the article was November 25, 2014. Nowadays it is harder and harder for young farmers to own land. This is happening to young farmers who want to start right away. They already have student loans to pay off an they probably can’t afford land. Seven out of ten farmers under 35 have to rent land.

A lot of the farming is done by the larger companies so it is even harder for them to sell their products. My classmate RT thinks, “It is bad, that is all.” My other classmate Nick thinks, “The government should do something about it, and Obama is better. Farming’s not simple. You’ve got to be smart to do it,” Chris, one of the farmers, said. I think the government should help these young farmers by giving them loans.

faster-baseball-ef448dc8.jpg.885x491_q90_box-0,100,4327,2503_crop_detailThe article I read was,“Baseball is timeless, and some say that’s the problem” The date of the article was November 10, 2014. Mlb is trying to add time restrictions on the game. This occurred to them after the 2014 season when games were averaging just over three hours.

“If it’s all about a clock,” he said, “go watch another sport.” I think this statement is true. Baseball is the one sport we play that doesn’t invoke the clock. Some people may like it because of its pace. My classmate Josh thinks,” They should make it to a limit of 2 and a half hours.” My other classmate Cole thinks,” That’s boring and I will never play the sport again.” The author was unbiased.

Current Event Q1 #4

texas-ebola-145c47f5.jpg.885x491_q90_box-0,40,3000,1705_crop_detail

The article I read was “Liberians in Texas say “Don’t blame us” for Ebola” The date of the article was October 5, 2014. Liberian’s say its not their fault that Ebola is in the U.S. This horrible event happened when Liberian Thomas Eric Duncan, got Nurse, Carolyn Woahloe Ebola! The Liberians say just because they’re Liberian doesn’t men they have the Disease.

“Don’t point a finger at Liberia,” said Jimmy Sando. He makes a point where just because they have the same nationality doesn’t mean you can blame them. Me and my dad think we should cut off transportation with West Africa until we make sure they don’t have Ebola.
