Lessons Learned from the Holocaust!

After hearing about the holocaust, I realized not to judge people just because one person was mean, or bad, and give forgiveness . Only because, when he was a kid, he went to an art school . The school was over ran by Jewish people. Hitler was soon kicked out of the school, because the teacher said his artwork was “bad”.  He joined the Army soon in WW1 and was nearly blinded from a gas. After the war, he became dictator, and started WW2. He killed 6 million Jews just because that teacher made him mad. The same thing sorta happened when a kid older than me called me bad name, and now I can’t trust people a grade older than me.

Another lesson I learned, was to not make people the way you want them to be. Hitler thought that Blonde-hair and Blue-eyed people would be the dominant race. He made machines to change people’s head shape, eye color, nose position, and hair color. If the tests didn’t work, you would be killed!

Number The Stars Diary Entry

Dear Diary,

Today was the craziest day ever! It started off innocent, before the Germans came to “Relocate” the Jews. I was told by my best friend’s father, that I was to move in, to not get caught. He told me that a man named “Peter” took my parents somewhere. I just hope to live to tomorrow.

 

As far as I’m concerned, Annemarie is my ‘sister’. For them to keep me, is really hard. It seems like another mouth to feed. I just wish my mom and dad were here. My friend, Anniemarie, doesn’t even understand what’s going on. I don’t really either.

 

What a great way to start off the New Year, am I right? Well diary, that’s all for today. Goodnight.

 

Sincerely,

Ellen

New Years Eve

New Years Eve

At exactly 12’o Clock pm
we headed to where the fun begins.
Where most of my family goes
to go and see a big show.
My uncle and dad
were gonna do something sorta bad.
Set fire to the yard
which will make my eyes very scarred.
Before that we went to get something to eat
all I wanted was some water and meat.

As they started to set everything to a blaze
There was so much wood, that it lasted for days.
Later we went to use a lot of fireworks
it was funny seeing it blow up the dirt.
When 12 hours rolled around
my family started the countdown
5-4-3-2-1
2016 will be a lot of fun.

An Incident

An Incident

They pulled the lever, I was seated and comfortable. It started, and there was no turning back. Once, Cameron and I went to Hurricane Harbor for his birthday. “Let’s start off riding the Tsunami Dragon!” Cameron exclaimed. I didn’t want to be rude, so I followed him to the line.

Since it was pretty popular, we had to wait a bit. Luckily, we had flash passes, to wear an hour took two minutes! While we patiently waited for our turn, I could hear the echoing screams of riders. Now, it was our turn. They got us settled and ready, for what would be the scariest ride of our life! One of the workers pulled the lever, and we were launched into a dark tunnel. As I turned around, I could see the worker waving “goodbye” to us.

It was horrible, drops, and twists and turns everywhere. Cameron had his hands up yelling “Woo Hoo!” I had decided to shut my eyes and go to my happy place. But I knew something wasn’t right. Like a feeling that we could be in harm, I suddenly looked down and realized my strap was undone! I tried calling for help, but it was no use.

When the next sharp turn came, I flung off, and bashed my head up against the metal tubes.That accident was huge!I remember Cameron telling me that even the news team came to document about it! We sued the worker, and the ride was closed down, also I got 1,000,000 dollars from the man!

5th Grade Reflections

Natrually I have learned alot this year, more than I was expecting. Stuff has happened this past month, which were pretty depressing, but I’ve been thinking about my future and what I’m going to do. Some stuff I will never use in my intire life, and some i will remember and keep in the back of my head. I’ve met new friends, and maybe lost some, but to sum it all up, i would agree that this was the best year ever.

So Long 5th Grade

The most important thing I learned was: The decades in Mr.Mac’s  class.

My favorite project was: The Candy shop project in math.

I was most suprised by :Fractions, and how terrible I was at them.

The thing I disliked the most was:FRACTIONS!!!!!!!!!

GSproject reflection

What I remember the most from this project is my group and I not knowing what we were supposed to do. Even after we each watched both videos atleast 4 times. Soon, after a couple of weeks we finally got it, and started brainstorming ideas. We started out making a poster from construction board paper, and drew a guy pressing the keys F1 and the command button to make a “model” of what we were gonna represent. We decided to demonstrate what you were supposed to do on the computer, but i dont’t know how the presentation went because i had to stay in for tutoring.

During the great depression,1931, Hazel’s father loses his job from the bottling factory. Since there family were broke Hazel couldn’t practice baseball with her pop, so she decides to go and play with her neighbor in their backyard. They refused to let her play because she was a girl. A couple days later Hazels neighbors come over and ask if anyone wanted a baseball ticket. Hazel snatched it from her hand and ran to the Lookouts game. The only reason she wanted to go there was because the Lookouts had a new pitcher that was a girl. Her name was Jackie Mitchell. Whenever she had to pitch against Babe Ruth, the legend, she struck him out with 95mph balls. Next up was Lou Gehrig and she instintly struck out Lou, but he had a little bit more dignity when he got out. After that game the neighbor hood boys realized that girls can play baseball, and allowed Hazel to join in with them.
