In class I was excited to get my job and help name the new colony that was named RockWood. After a few days I got the job I wanted, Religious Leader. But, since we needed a teacher they said I would be a Teacher because the church would be in the school. Now my group and I are planning out what our colony is going to look like and who’s property is big and where it is and I had a small land but everybody was pretty small too. Also a lot of the choices were up to the Governer, Claire. The other people in my colony are Shali, Hunter,George,Charles,Eshal and Felix. They all had important jobs like Planner,Farmer,Doctor, and Black smith. We had everything done likes the Laws punishment where everything is going to be and where should we build all this stuff. The process was building up but we had more to do like actually  building all this stuff in our dirt lands. My group was great but some people messed around but I think they got their part done. I think this project was fun and takes a lot of teamwork to actually agree on something. I would think it’s pretty hard to get attention from 6 people when some are making plans and some are fooling around but I can sqeeze in some idea’s.  It was fun working on the new world. It’s also fun do stuff that long ago people did. It’s like going to the past and being experienced with all the work tat they were doing back then.

Star Girl has been interesting. Star Girl is nice but she is a little bit strange. But Star Girl always made everything exciting! Even though the school still does not want to stand out. Instead of thinking about blending in I can tell Star Girl wants to stand out! Like she always stands out when she sings when everybody is looking at her. People might think it’s not normal but it’s normal for Star Girl.

 

Star Girl always brings the fun in something boring. Like the football games they have in high school. Star Girl came and did cheers and she played football even though she was not a player! Also she did stretches WITH the football players! I would say he is a Wonder.

 

Star Girl is not like anybody else. Everybody else in the school wants to be the same but Star Girl doesn’t. Nobody sings happy birthday to somebody when its their birthday but Star Girl does! Star Girl is the opposite of everybody. But she is nice like some people. But not everybody is nice. Even though she is different and she knows people do not do what she does she is still kind and not thinking hmm why are they not doing what I am doing… there weird.

 

 

Star Girl did get a friend. The Cheer Captain. Star Girl was also invited to be a Cheer Leader. Her outfit was the same as the rest but she still acted different. Nothing can stop her from being different. Nothing. Star Girl Is One Of A Kind.

Colonial America – Part 2- Persona

In class my name for Colonial america is Silvia Wildfire. My job is a Religious Leader and Teacher. I moved to the new world because when I was born my mom died when she gave birth to me and my dad was so sad so he put all his sadness on me and made me do all the chores. But when I was 15 I ran away to the new world and now I am 25 and I have a happier life. But with my new jobs there comes responsibility’s like making sure kids were paying attention, especially the boys. Also I had to go to the church and make sure nothing was going wrong and some people would not interrupt. My colonial group said I should be the Teacher since the church is in the school so I did. Also the people at the new world with me are a governor,Black smith, trader, Fisher man, Soldier, planner and Doctor. I think that my Colony would survive.

 

 

My colony group was better than my dad. He would always boss me around for no reason. My dad would not let me have fun but only let me play with the broom I use to clean the floors. At the new world I had my own house. The school I work at and I would not break the laws because one of the Punishments are “If you don’t work for at least 5 hours you won’t get your food you earn. So I make sure I am doing the right thing. Also its good that we have a Governor so we don’t argue because arguing could stop us from living happily. Also the governor helps get everything in order. Also its good that we have a Fisher Man so we can have food and its good we have all the jobs we have.

 

The new world was called RockWood and I liked that name.So it was also great living at Rockwood because they cared about YOUR opinion. Also RockWood was a free place. Like the religions could be anything.At the church we can believe in both Jesus and God or none of the above. I am glad I ran away and helped build RockWood. It was Worth running away to make a new place that’s not where my Dad is. RockWood is the New England Colony.

 

We were all getting along and making our map for the Colony so we all know where we are and we can all know where we go because this is still a new place. We just the stuff that we need but we don’t have the map. We don’t have anything to plan out where EVERYTHING is going to be. So when we were done with our map we did make the laws and Punishments and EVERYBODY got to let there Idea go  and I am sure all of our Idea’s were on the Scroll. With all the bad Punishments I was sure nobody was going to break a Law.

 

RockWood does not have a Jail. We just get punished. We also have no slaves to work for us. Slavery is wrong in RockWood. I am glad that we have no Slaves. Also the jail would not be good for RockWood either. It’s like breaking the Law and your not working for 5 hours. Your not getting your food. That’s fair and a jail I think would be to much for our punishments because the punishments we have are fair. If there was a jail they would put me in a cell and they had to feed me and that stuff because they would get punished for letting me starve. Or there would be a Law that says your aloud to starve a somebody…

 

Everybody is the same. Nobody really has power. Everybody is even. The governor does not even have power. Everybody is the same. Everybody has to be treated Equal. That’s why we have no slaves. Let’s just say somebody is different, that doesn’t mean you have more power. The a Law and that’s another Reason why I like RockWood. It’s a whole new world we great things.

 

 

RockWood was a great change for me and I am glad not I am not treated differently then anybody else. I was treated bad with my dad. To compare my new and old life my new one is much better. I get to be free in my new life but in my old life I wasn’t. I did not have fun in my old life but now in my new life I have fun. My new life is better. RockWood is better.

Things me and my group did to the maglev train was to put to magnet rings on each side. So it can be even with the new track. We made it even because if it was uneven then it would just stop moving.

 

My group and me put three string magnets on each side for the track. And then we tested our maglev train and the track to see if it worked. And it did we gave it one little push then BOOM it went across the track without tilting or stoping! It was a complete success.

 

I learned that you always need to make sure what you are doing with magnets before you put them together. And always make sure thing are even. And the maglev train was really hard to make but me and my group finally did all that hard work paid off. Also working with a group was great it made everything much easier.

The magnets my group used are eight strip magnets Also There are three magnets stacked on each other on each side of the track. And there are two magnets on each side of the foam board.

 

Also Something that worked was our last plan of a train.And the only magnets that we used were two little strip magnets on two sides of the foam board.And something that we failed at was a train we made.It had ring magnets everywhere all over the foam board.And all of them were in the wrong place but we fixed that.But the train still did not work. 

And my groups goal is to make our maglev train we made to carry more weight.

A maglev train is a train that runs on magnets.The train is made out of magnets. A maglev train is supposed to carry people to places.The maglev train levitates off the track because the magnets on the same side.                                

My group put nine ring magnets on the bottom of the train. And then we put two strip magnets on the middle of the track.We then put as many ring magnets as we could fit around the outside of the track, which was around the strip magnets.      

It was really hard to make the train because the magnets were in the wrong places. Some of the magnets were repelling and some were attracting. It was all messed up. Also the track was hard to build because they were also repelling and attracting, which made it mess up. Finally we did it. All the work paid off. My group was great because we listened to each other’s ideas,we never interrupted when we were talking and most of all we were never fighting.

 The book I recommend  is “Marvin Red Post: Is He a Girl?” by Louis Sachar.

There is a boy named Marvin and he is at school. This girl says if you kiss your elbow you will turn into a girl. Then he went home it was night time and he was trying to kiss his elbow and it worked. But now he is  acting like a girl. If he kisses his elbow again, would he turn back into a boy? well read this book to find out more . And I love this book because you never now whats going to happen  and there are some surprises you might see.
