Personal post:May long

It was great not having to go to school for 3 days,it was much needed for some of us.whichever day I don't have school the first thing I do that day is go to a gym and play some basketball now that's a start to a great day for me, I always need to sweat after a night of a party it makes you feel so much better.I guess that's my hangover cure.

Personal post-fashion show

 grad fashion show was a couple months ago it was a night that I will probably won't forget For a while. It was worth all the boring practices and time we put in to learn the dances. the whole show was themed after the Olympic Games, all the groups chose a country and a sport to theme their dances after. My group chose Australia as our country and theme for the first dance and snowboarding for our sport and theme for the second dance. Which was fun because we got to design outfits to match our themes well the girls did most the designing
It was also really fun to see all of the grade 12 students get along so well, and we had a dope time at the after party which summed the night.

Quick-write best meal

My favourite meal is chicken with rice, I'm not a big fun of rice but if you mix it with chicken then it taste like heaven, just walking into a room and taking a Whiff of chicken then that's all I can smell for a bit, the taste is Crunchy, a little bit oily that's all I got on explaining this.

What is your imaginary Eden?

One place that I feel most happy and confident is when I'm on the basketball court.Its just a different feeling than most things I like. I guess it's just the passion And the love I have for the game.During the weekends the first thing I do or my day just doesn't feel right is when I wake up I have to go to the gym and start of my day with playing some basketball, that's a start of a good day for me.

Mid semester reflection part 1

1.things that went well in the six word memoir, it wasn't hard picking images for the memoirs also having to write 100 words on each image wasn't very challenging because it brings memories if it was an image of yourself but it wasn't easy at the same time if the image wasn't about you.i didn't add much style,font into the pictures which I could have done better, I learned that I as a writer need to think thrue what I'm gonna write before I write it so I don have to change up about what I'm gonna write when I'm writing it.

Skype Reflection

My group presented an example of a "six word memoir" using an exclamation point (!) we tried to make our example funny and about a topic that they would find interesting so that they would like it more and it would be more memorable. i also used a funny picture and told them the story of how i got the picture.

My mini lesson wasn't that good i believe because it was made even more mini by our connections being interrupted. i am not sure how much they liked it but hopefully they did

this taught me that it takes lots of preparation and practice to be a good teacher, you have to be fun to keep the kids attention but at the same time teach them the info that you want them to learn, which as anyone may have guessed is very difficult

next time we Skype their class we should do something more interactive, maybe a game of some sort to get more people involved.

Reading assignment #2

Hoop dreams (50) "I know you won't believe me when I say this, but I wish kids especially black kids,didn't dream so much about playing in the NBA"

Arthur will be playing in the finals, "ever since I was a kid I dreamed about playing in the finals" #predictonwithaqoute

Hopefully Arthur does not follow his dads footsteps #badidea

If you don't get the grades you're not going to play #reality

Reading assignment #1

Hoop dreams by Ben joravsky (25) is an inspiring book that has sparked my interest. #intro

How would Arthur's life been if his dad was part of the family when Arthur went to the private school ? #question

His dad could made a difference by helping the family out so Arthur's mom wouldn't have to soppurt the whole family #truth

I predict that William could have  made it to the pros. #prediction

Has anyone seen the movie hoop dreams #discussion

Six word memoirs #4

This is me when I was 9 or 10 years old, life was so much differant than it is right now, there is not a lot to worry about in life when you are a kid.all you gotta do is eat sleep and repeat that what life was all about, didn't need to get a job to feed your self didn't need to do anything and I loved it but now things are different you gotta work so you can pay rent or buy clothes 

Six word memoirs #3

This words connect to my image because it shows that I can't wait to be graduated and my image shows a picture of me in the future, it's been a long 12 years of school and finally I made it mama,I just want to graduate and move on with my life even tho I know in gonna miss high school a lot.i don't have much style in this picture or font.

Six word memoirs #2

This image goes with the memoirs because it's an image of someone giving someone else the finger and the memoir says "I love when I got haters" so no matter what people say to you or have the hate towards you it doesn't matter because you always gonna kill them-with   kindness and not react to the hate, I didn't really edit this image and I made the font bigger than usual, then I added something's to the image like tilting the words an changing the colour of the words, I didn't really think about how are this things gonna be appropriate to the image and text but I think it is appropriate .

Six word memoirs #1

This six word memoir is about "my first date is a memory",I picked this picture to go with it because there's a couple below helping each other out and that's what relationships are about helping one another. Say that one day sadly your relationship comes to an end an the only thing you think about when you think about that individual is the good memory's that you use to have together.
I didn't do much editing on this piece because there's nothing to edit, I just tryed to make the words on the picture to look cool by changing it's font and style.

Which do you choose

Id pick hogwarts because I haven't watched most of the movies that we had to pick from but I know a little about hogwarts,I think it would be pretty cool and interesting being a wizard and being able to have all this power plus the castle is pretty huge.Hogwarts is surrounded  by mountains and a forest, they also have a lot of yummy food to eat.
