1. I think that Hitler was cruel because there is no need to kill people because of their religion and its sad. I also learned that the Germans just went in the houses and killed them there. They also used to have them make ditches and then shoot them and they would fall in the ditches they dug ( kind of like making your own grave)
2.Well David Faber's family is a nice sweet family. And his father almost got killed. His sister is safe because she lives in England or Paris. But the rest of the family stay's in Powland. But they move alot. Sonia is the youngest. And Fella is the oldest.
b.) I think he remembers it all because it's something that you just cant forget and move it and it's really sad. But that's when it started which is probably the hardest time.
3.It shows that he's brave because he saved his father by going out in the public which is very dangerous because of the Nazi's. And he ends up saving his father but not the others. But i think it shows that he needed his dad or that he loved him very much. Which is normal for a child to love their parents.

I’m a girl. From west coast L.A . Raised in the hood or __preposition_ I call icy chill. __Conjunction_ my mom prefers home. She __infinitive__ me about my behavior __preposition__ school. I always like Skittles __Verb__ class. Skittle’s is my best friend. He always seems to _Adjective__ like chicken. Yum! __Pro Noun__ doesn’t seem to bother __Pro Noun__ . __Pro Noun__ __Past Participle__ say “ Stop! It tickles, Ms. Cocoa is going to see you”. __Possessive Pro Noun__ so pro cautious. Ms. Cocoa is out teacher in __Noun__. __Pro Noun__ has at least 5 kids. She’s a major Buggy Boo. Sometimes I feel like __Verb__ __Noun__ __Pre Position__ her. __Conjunction__ would just eat it. No harm right? __Adverb__ then how come I’m in this principle office. __Verb__ for my mom so she can yell at me. So now I’m stuck __Verb__ this __Adjective__ paper. __ Interjection__!

Project Reflction
Name: Kezia Mitchell
Project Reflection
Project Title: Mc Website Project
Letter: C [ now b] Dates: Unknown
PURPOSE
In this section, explain what you were supposed to learn and what you were supposed to do.
The purpose of this project was to make a website based on Moral Courage. You were susposed to learn about what your group had chosen to do their site on. We were also susposed to learn how to make a site and make sure your not stealing others work. There was ways we learned on how to prevent on doing that (will talk about it later). We were susposed to choose a subject that had to do with Moral Courage. Then write 5 pages each about the subtopic you were in charge of. For example: Subject:: Global issues, Subtopic: Water Pollution. Things like that. Then make your own site. With profesional work on it. The site needed to be a good form and not contain any stolen work. Then submit the site.
WHAT I LEARNED
In this section, tell what academic information or skills you learned or improved.
I improved on working with Dream Weaver and paraphrasing . Dream weaver is a feature on our computers, that spealizes on making sites like our DP's. And Paraphrasing is taking someones work and putting it in your own words. The first time we had Paraphrasing i had 10/10 so i think i did good on that. Information that i found out was more about the world's danger since we did Global Effects. Including: penguins, Seals, Sea turtles, Water pollution, and Global warming. I mostly focused on Water pollution and Penguins. And i learned about how it effects the animals and how it can be caused by Global Warming. Or the other way around. Which i can take into considerate and change my ways and help save the planet.
REFLECTION
In this section, reflect on your experience. Did you like the project? Why or why not? How did you do? What would you do differently next time?
I liked working on dream weaver mostly on the proeject. And i liked this project actually alot because it was fun and educational. Which is what my school is based on. Project based learning. I was incharge of information concerning Water Pollution. Which wasnt to hard but could be complicated at times. Next time i think i would try harder to finish the page. I wouldnt like to say i didnt use my time wisely but i would prepare my self more. I think that this project was a way of us students learning about subjects by our selfs. Which is kind-of cool if you think about it.
WORK HABITS
Complete the following section about your work habits. How did you manage your time in and outside of class? What parts of the project were you responsible for? What strategies did you use when you had difficulty understanding or completing the project?
I think i did manage to do my time in and outside of class. Because i leaving around 5:45 and i got to work, in Ms.Interlandi's room during that time. I think my main diffuclty was having Justin in my group.Which didn't realy turn out to be a big problem. We settled our differences and worked well together and communicated well. I think i had a hard time submitting the actual site. Infact my whoel group did because the pictures werent uploading right. And it ended up being Thinkquest's issue not ours. Another difficulty was getting everyones page in exact order. Like penguins, seals, sea turtles, and coral reef ; all needed to be in the same format as each other.
ARTIFACTS
You should have at least one artifact from each project on your DP. What document, picture, or link will you have for this project?

Missing post.
I think the post that were missing were independent reading post from March.
Since im not sure what the books were here are two new post:
Missed post #1
Book: How my life changed by Todd Strasser
This book is about a boy who is a star quarter back and he cant play after he injures his knee. A girl Bo decides to change almost her whole life style. Like wearing make up and loosing weight. Well it starts to catch kyle's (the ex star quarter back). And they become friends. But Bo decides that she wants to be more than friends. And its all about young love. At the end of the book Bo changes her name to Delia and decidedes for everyone to call her Dee for short.
Missing post #2
Book: Forever Ramona
I first stubbled onto this book when i was eight. And i still love it. It's about a girl named Ramona around the age of nine. She has an older sister named Beezus. This book has so much going on. Her uncles getting married. Her cat Picky dies and they burry him in their backyard. And to top it off, Mrs.Quimby is having a baby. I believe they named the baby Albie. This book has so many feelings and emotions put into it. Its only 182 pages. I say that because the font is kind of big and it features 3 drawn pictures or so. I dont read this book anymore. But i remember quite alot to have read it 3 years ago. Or 5 years ago. But this book is the best book ever and ill always keep it FOREVER. (ramona forever)

Final Post.
1. I think Melinda really is having a hard time. Heather even ditched her. How messed up could Heather possibly be. And her parents are blowing the issues out of porportion. And it's kind of sad that the only person that she can atually tell is Mr. Freeman
2. This has been the saddest part. Its offically true that Andy Evan's raped her under a tree at the party. But she snuck out the back and ran home. And when she can finally tell Rachel/ Rachelle. By writing notes in the library. She believes her then when she hears that its Andy Evans who did the evil thing she turns her back again.
3. How do you think Mr.Freeman will take it?

Speak post #2
1. Melinda is just a girl who's life isnt falling into place at the moment. Even though she tries it seems that nothing is happening. Her grades arent that great. And makes her parents argue. She has the idea that her parents would of been divorced if they didnt have her. And pizza seems to answer all the dinner problems they have. Melinda has never told her parents about the party. She has stated she was going to a friends and got home before anyone else did. But now she's afraid that everything that happened and the fact she even went will be revealed to the two people she doesnt even want to know about it. Shes starting to cut her self with paper clips. Not so good and she's a little clumsy like in class with the chisel. It hurt me when i heard that Mr.Freeman ripped his canvas. :[
2. Its real difficult to read about this. I think i found out who raped her. I think its this Andy guy. She seems to call him IT. I would too. She cant stand the fact of being around him. So she ends up running. Its tragic to hear about this and diffucult to have this happen.
3. Do you think the boy who raped her was Andy? Why?
