City vs. Nature Q3W6
City, so hectic
people rushing around, getting angry
no patience, strict rules
nature, so calming and relaxing
no rush to get anywhere
nothing is expected
the days are longer
while hunting I am with nature
the sound of the birds singing
the sight of the bright sun
while fishing I am with nature
the soothing sound of the flowing river
fishing swimming by
Gummy Worm Q3W6
One day at school, Patrick and Ja’Darius were playing basketball during recess. Ja’Darius said he needed a break and the two of them went to their backpacks to get snacks. Ja’Darius had gummy worms, but Patrick’s mom forgot to pack his snack that day. Patrick asked Ja’Darius if he could have at least one gummy worm, but Ja’Darius just would not concede a gummy worm even though he had a one pound bag of them. Patrick was being proponent by propounding Ja’Darius with the idea that he should give Patrick a gummy worm. In order to prevent a strife, Patrick challenged Ja’Darius to a game of one-on-one basketball. If Patrick wins, he gets a gummy worm. If Ja’Darius wins, Patrick doesn't get a gummy worm. The two decided to play to 21. Ja’Darius beat Patrick 21-1 because Ja’Darius fouled Patrick and made a free throw. Ja’Darius was going easy on Patrick. He felt so bad for beating so badly, so he gave Patrick a gummy worm anyway.

ATDPTI Response Q3W4
In ATDPTI, lots of things happen. First, Junior talks to a pretty girl named Penelope. He told her his name was Junior and everyone made fun of him. Then, Junior gets called racist names by Roger and his friends. It gets to a point where Junior cant handle it and punches Roger in the face. Junior thinks Roger will beat hime up because he’s huge. After that, Junior goes to school with his father’s friends Uncle Eugene on his motorcycle. Everyone at Rheardan is impressed including Roger. Junior is surprised Roger is being nice and then Junior thinks about his 12 year old crush and cries with Rowdy, who promises not to tell anyone. Then, Halloween comes around and Junior dresses up as a homeless person and tries to raise money. He gets $10 and is very proud of himself. But then some guys wearing Frankenstein costumes beat him up and steal the money. When Junior get back to Rheardan, he talks to Penelope and she wants to make a donation under Junior’s name.
At first, I felt bad for Junior because people were making fun of him. I don't like how Roger and his friends treated him. I’m glad Junior stood up for himself by punching Roger. I don't like how Junior took the money from the fundraiser, but he didn't really deserve getting beat up and mugged.
Research Project Update Q3W4
So far in my research project, I have gotten a lot of work done and learned different techniques. I really understand everything and I am happy with my progress so far. I had trouble with in-text citations, but resolved this issue. When I talked to Dr. D it fixed everything. Another thing I fixed was my thesis and the focus of my paper.
Before, the main focus of my paper was if boxing is positive or not. Now, I have changed my focus to how boxing evolved to become a positive sport. I think I will receive a good grade on the paper and project when I’m done. And I really enjoy learning about my topic.
