Inspired by this photograph
It comes along every four years
It gets intense
It gets crazy
There’s drama, excitement, and tears
32 teams start out
but only one will be the champion of the world
2014 was Germany
They are the world’s number one team
Creative Writing Q3 #1
Surfing and swimming is what most kids like to do in San Diego. But David didn’t care about that, he wanted to find Bigfoot. Ever since he was a kid he has wanted to see this mysterious creature. It has been told to be living in the mountains of Big Bear. Legend says he only comes out during the winter, and he lives in a cave. Winter time came and all David could think about was was Bigfoot. He, his sister, and his parents all went unto Big Bear for a week and a half, but he didn’t tell them about finding Bigfoot. The first three days he had no clue what to do and found no trace of him whatsoever. He was starting to lose hope but then he found a rather large cave. He decided to explore it but nothing was there. That night he decided that the next day would be his last attempt at finding the creature. The morning comes and he puts on his clothes, and heads out the door.
He was walking up a mountain when suddenly he fell through some snow and into what appeared as a cave. He wasn’t sure whether it was real or not but it was. He got up and it was pitch black, so he took out his flashlight and looked around. He saw two tunnels so he went right, he was walking when he fell into what looked like a bottomless pit. He landed in a chamber and at the end saw a large hairy figure. It turned around and stared at him. It was Bigfoot! David almost fainted, he realized he would need proof but before he could even pull out his phone Bigfoot had already crushed it. David realized it was going to be harder than he thought. He tries to run but there is no where to go, he just runs around trying to find an escape. He didn’t care about Bigfoot anymore he wanted to save his life. He spotted a doorway in the corner, he managed to barely make it. It took him back up to the snow, he then started walking away when the ground started rumbling. Louder and louder, suddenly, ”ahhhhhhhhhhhhh.”
CB Times
What if
What if we lived in a world of peace
What if there was no terrorism
What if we didn’t lock our doors at night
What if there were no crimes
What if it was a world of CB’s
But that isn’t possible
We have crimes
We have terrorism
We have CB’s too
But that’s what make the world go round
Haters
There will be haters,
They hate you,
They hate the way you walk
They hate the way you talk
They hate that you make all the money
And score all the goals
They just want to take you out
They couldn’t if they tried
They hate it when you you win
They hate that you’re the best
The best on the field
There will be haters

Civil Rights Tweets
Jackie Robinson:
As a hall of fame baseball player, and a civil rights hero I’m proud of our president and what he’s done. #obama #firstblack #blackandwhite
This years World Series was a great battle between the Royals and the Giants. Sadly the Giants won but I’m proud of both teams #baseball #worldseries2014 #blackandwhite
As an ex army chief I feel we need to send troops to take down Isis. #taliban #isis #badguysgoboom #blackandwhite
Martin Luther King JR:
Our nations leader is the first black leader but he hasn’t done the expectations I’ve had in him. #sadface #obama #blackandwhite
I’m glad to see this country treating African Americans fairly. But now black people are getting mad at white people. Like when a white cop killed a black man. Many people wanted justice and have him locked up in jail for life. #jail #makepeacenotwar #blackandwhite
Just went to the natural history museum and saw a lot of stuff from my time #throwbackthursday #blackandwhite
Rosa Parks:
Riding on a bus today felt different. It was just a normal bus, no segregation, no better and worst parts, and no cruel people. #relived #busboycott #blackandwhite
I’m so happy to have helped the country become more free and have less segragation. I wanted the best for my kids #segragationisbad #blackandwhite
I believe my arrest helped people realize how cruel it really was. #blackandwhite
42
In the movie “42,” it explains Jackie Robinson’s first season with the Dodgers and the challenges he had to overcome. The players didn’t want him, the coach didn’t want him, and even the announcers didn’t want him! The team had to find different hotels because blacks weren’t allowed into the finest ones. They couldn’t eat at the same restaurants, or go to the same bar. The manager of the dodgers wanted to change baseball, he wanted to desegregate it. Jackie had to agree not to fight back if he got criticized or hit. If he did that people would hate him even more. But through the movie, the players overcame his skin color and became not just teammates but friends. And by the end of the movie he ended the respect he deserved, from everybody.
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.
