Today I am going to be writing about day 9 writing prompt.
Prompt; Learning from home was good/not good because… remember to include three reasons and examples.
I personally think that working from home on work review from this year is really hard. I totally get why they want us to review all the things we have learned but I forgot most of the things that they taught earlier in the year and it is really hard to go to my storage in my brain and try to remember when my math teacher taught that topic to us.
The other reason I don’t like staying home all the time is that I am starting to get bored when I am not doing school work. I really love going outside and I don’t like watching television in the middle of the day or the morning.
The last reason that I don’t like working at school is because I miss my friends and classmates to keep me company. My siblings can be annoying. These are the three main reasons why I don’t like staying home and working.
Again Today I am going to be writing the prompt on my computer because I think that it is more fun that way. Today’s writing prompt: If you had a superpower, what would it be and how would you use it for good?
If I had any superpower I would want to heal the sick. I would heal them in seconds without any medicine at all.
I would use this to go to different places in America and heal the sick. Maybe I would go to the hospital and that’s where all the people would come in. I would heal everyone in the country from the coronavirus and that should immediately stop it from spreading. I would save all those sick and poor people in the world by healing them for free.
I would want to heal them for free because it would make me feel good inside, not that I want to be treated differently; it would just be one of those things that makes you happy for helping others.
I am ahead in writing because I started on Tuesday instead of Wednesday. I am going to be writing day 7: If you were in charge. How would you help your community right now? Include three ways with examples.
One thing that I would make sure that happens in our Bowdoinham community is that I would make sure everyone some how washed there hands before eating, after coming in from outside and after using the bathroom. I would also supply every house with three boxes of gloves, the gloves are so whenever you go out of your home. I would shut down every gathering over 30 people and try to find a way to have that group meet up over the internet. I would close down all stores an if you needed anything it would be delivered right to your door.
The reason I would make sure that everyone washes there hands is because germs spread and we want our houses to be as clean as possible. The reason I would supply everyone with gloves is because if they go out to a store they would not get germs on there hands. The reason that i would close all stores is because there have been warnings about getting quarentined so we need to stalk up on food. and the stored carry a lot of germs so if you needed something badly it would be shiped to your door.
I wanted to blog about my writing because I am a fast typer and I did not want to write. These are the things that I woud do right now to keep everyone safe in my community.
I have another best friend her name is Amia. I noticed it is not fair for me to write something nice for one friend and not the other.
Amia and I have been friends since second grade. She is a good friend to have. she is nice, loyal and she is there for you when you need it. She listens to you and she never gets in trouble. Amia and I are very alike. If you are friends with me and not Amia that is your loss. she is a wonderful person.
I had just listened to the video. What I heard was this woodpecker pecking. It reminded me that at my dads house there are a bunch of pretty birds that sing in the morning time. It also reminds me that at my mom’s house there are not a lot of birds that come and sing to us in the morning. The reason behind that is because my dog barks at everything so he scares some of them off.
We don’t have birds that sing but we do have a bird feeder and birds who come in the morning. My cat Olive sits at the sliding door and meows and chirps whenever she sees a bird. Olive is my newish cat, we got her four months ago today. Olive is mentally special, the animal shelter we got her from thinks that she had a brain trauma when she was a kitten. ( which means they think she hit her head hard and damaged part of the brain.) Olive is nine months old today. when we first go her she spun around in circles. This is what this video reminds my of.
I wanted to say that Madelyn is my best friend in the whole wide world. She is there for me and I am there for her. We have been friends since kindergarten. In second grade something big interfered with our friendship, but by fourth grade it was all cleared up.
Madelyn and I have not fought in years. I think the reason that we are so close is that we are almost exactly alike, so we have nothing at all to fight over. I really love having a friend that is always there for me and always will be. I don’t know what life would be without a best friend like Madelyn.
Right now I am not loving home school at all. I don’t like being away from my friends and I don’t like being at home all the time.
My dad said that the rumor has it we will not have school until late April or possibly the rest of the year. I will have a Guaranteed Meltdown if that ever happens. I have been really lucky that my dad has let me use his computer to do all of this classroom work.
I just heard that school is closed for another month. I am so upset. I just miss all of my friends and I am almost getting bored staying home all of the time now.
I had just finished this book called the other day called the Hunger Games. If you don’t like violence than this book is not for you. It is about this girl named Katniss Everdeen and she has spent a lot of her life hunting and putting food on the table for her sister and her mother.
There are twelve districts which are there word for towns, ( Katniss lives in district twelve) the hunger games is this game where you put your name in a drawing and one boy and one girl are chosen to go to the capital ( which is the big rich city ) to be put in an arena to fight for death. Katniss’s sister is chosen to go fight in the hunger games. Katniss volenteers to take her place. She goes on this train which is to pick up the other kids on there way to the capital. the boy that has gotten chosen out of district twelve is a boy that has a crush on her.
In the story Katniss learns to love and how to survive on her own and at the end her and the boy win the hunger games.
A perfect summer after a perfect year, school started. I moved that summer to Brockett community School in Vermont. We were crime fighting heroes, we also met the three bullies other wise known as the TAM club. In 4th grade, my best friend Aki moved to Paris, I couldn’t save her.
“My first day of fifth grade at my new school I am so excited!” Bug squealed to herself. Bug ran down the stairs to see what her mom was packing for lunch.
“Hi darling, I packed you a macaroni and cheese with bits of hotdogs in your brand new blue thermos”. Mom said as she squeezing lemons for lemonade.
“Mom I don’t have a thermos.”
“You do now! I ordered one for you online last week”. “THANK YOU! THANK YOU,
MOM! THANK YOU SO MUCH!” Bug shouted and hugged her mom. Bug has always wanted a thermos.
“I also packed you oreos and an apple”.
“Thank you mom.”
“Sweety, you are my big fifth grader anything for you”. Her mom said sighing.
“So mom can I have a phone then?” Bug asked convincible. “No.”
Honk! honk! the bus came. “By mom.” Bug said grabbing her lunch and running to the bus.
Beetle
“Beetle!” mom called go get in the moving truck please. “Bye, bye walls, bye stinky rats in the fridge”. I said walking around my old house with nothing in it. I am moving to Ottawa, Canada.
I went to Seal Cove School in Williamstown, Vermont. I am going to someplace called Laplante elementary school my mom was saying.
Bug
I think I am having second thoughts about this brand new school thing, I mean, I have no friends, I am going into 5th grade and most of the kids have friends and they have been there since first grade.
How could I only have one friend last year? The plan was that her and Aki were going to transfer together but Aki moved to Paris. Bug thought. of all the fun they had together. The bus pulled to a stop ‘oh no, I’m at school!’ She got off the bus and slumped down the hall with a lump in her throat and a tear in her eye.
Not from the onions in the cafeteria, ( but that was half of the problem) it was because she would not have any friends she would have to start all over with the friend making process.
Aki was the only girl that thought Bug was a cool name. Some of the girls said over the summer that the girls at that school will slice your heart in half and make you cry like the doofus are! Well in my defense that was the sassy girls. ( which were way too young to be sassy)
I don’t care! I don’t care! I don’t care! I don’t care about them.
I was thinking.
I straightened my back and lifted my head and strode down the hall with power.
Beetle
I packed up my things and we hit the road. Later we got to Mini – Marc, we pulled up to a weird house on a weird road. I got out, grabbed my single bag and walked inside. Wow this place is weird.
This week I am not going to school, my parents say I need to unpack my things and get used to the new house.
Next week is Labor Day weekend so it makes time to unpack my things.
“So here is your room,” said my mom.
“It’s plain!” whined beetle. Tomorrow we will go to the supply store and buy some paint. Then go to the furniture store and get whatever you need… to make your room more roomie.” As she pivoted and left the room. I sat in my sleeping bag on the floor thinking about school and friends and all of my old friends. (Tess, Jake, Sophi, Josh, Lake and me,) They were all bug lovers so having a nice friend named Beetle is the best thing that could ever happen to them! But now things are going to be harder, no one will have a name like mine.
Bug
I was slouching on the bench organizing my binder when the mean girls came by, Tiffany, Anya and Mallory. (who was the leader.) Those are their names, but they go by the T.A.M club. (when I heard the ‘T.A.M club’ I thought it was terrible, awful and mean!) I closed my binder and I jumped off the bench to run away, but I dropped my binder and I forgot to close the rings on the paper and the pages scattered! I quickly dropped on my hands and knees quickly grabbing the pages when Mallory said, “ Hey girls! Look at bugs crawling around!!”
“Looks like she’s already growing antennae out of her little tiny skull! HA HA snort!” I stopped picking up my papers when they stepped closer and closer.
I started backing up then my back hit the bench when I whimpered desperately, “Please don’t hurt me.”
“Ha! We arent that mean!” said Anya (he is a nice one of the group)
“Hey! I heard that you got an A+ on your math test!” said Tiffiny
“That’s right.” I said not really sure what to do.
“Well… Nice job nerd brain!” she hissed back with a snarl and Tiffiny and Mallory laughed as they kicked the pages and ran off. “See you in class.” said Anya picking up some muddy pages and put them in my hands and ran off to join the others.
Beetle
My name is a name that my parents gave me when I was born(obviously) because of the way that my parents met.
My parents met at the Beatles band in Massachusetts.
They really like the Beatles Band.
