US Constitution Project Blog Post #1

For our US constitution project I chose the question “How did African Americans get the right to vote because I have an interest in racial justice, and so does everyone in my family. It really makes no sense how we have a bias because of skin color. I also wanted to learn about how hard people work to get what they want in the government. This is a major topic now. With the Black Lives Matter Movement I wanted to learn about how a lot of rights have to be fought for, like voting. There is a problem with racism in our government and I want to learn about past problems to see how they were solved.

True Story Narrative

This is a piece of writing we worked on in the start of the year. This piece is unfinished, because it was only something to start the year off. This story is about the time when me, my sister and my dad went skiing together.

Expert Book

This is my expert it is about dinosaurs I enjoyed writing this on paper so I could draw diagrams. The slides were hard to organize. You may find this interesting if you like reptiles. You may learn the scary dinosaurs you see on tv didn’t look like they do. The reason I made a book about dinosaurs because I have been interested in them since kindergarten. The thing I was sad about was that my diagrams that I drew could not be in the book. I hope you enjoy reading my book!

The Beach in Palawan

One hot summer day my parents and I were in the car going to the beach.                                                                                                          ‘’When are we going to the beach?” I said. ‘’Soon,’’ dad said. When we arrived I got on all my stuff and ran to  the water like a shark. The water did not taste very good. I could not breathe like a fish out of water. ‘’Dito Arvin’’ I screamed.

‘’What?’’ said Dito Arvin.’’ Can I have water’’ I coughed ‘’ Yes’’ Dito Arvin said.

He brought me back to my parents. ‘’He can’t breathe’’ Dito Arvin. I felt like drowning. I drank water and felt fine “Can I have my snorkel’’ I asked. ‘’Yes’’ Dito Arvin said. My sister went to the dock and jumped straight into the ocean.

‘’Hey puet ‘’ Kuya Carl said. ‘’Your a collo’’ I said ‘’ what does that mean’’ Kuya Carl. ‘’Tush’’ I said. ‘’I also called called you a tush’’ Kuya Carl said ‘’Let’s go’’ I said. Just when we got to the beach we had to  go eat lunch we went to the shower and washed up and went back to the restaurant. I ordered chicken with rice because I love chicken and rice. My cousin Kuya Carl ordered dried squid. My dad got vegetables with rice and a type of meat that I cannot remember. After lunch we went boogie boarding. ‘’Mom is amazing at this’’  Andrea said. She wasn’t falling off the board. She was like a monkey in a tree. She went really fast. She was like the flash on water. She couldn’t make it to the beach. When the waves crashed down like an avalanche. My mom fell sideways off the board. ‘’Mom!’,’ I said. ‘’Are you okay’,’ I said ‘’yes’,’ mom said. ‘’ can I go next ‘,’ I asked. ‘’ Sure’,’ dad said. My dad grabbed the board and we went very far into the ocean. We waited for the huge wave to come. ‘’ There it is ‘,’ dad said. He grabbed the board and I went flying over the waves for a few seconds. All of a sudden I plunged deep underwater. ‘’ahhhhhh!’,’ I yelled as I went flying into a rock I slammed into a rock ‘’can we go now’,’ I asked. We got ready to go. I felt super duper sick. We left the beach ‘’Braden you have a temperature’,’ I was really sick. I did not boogie board for two years.
