           Three people that I am most grateful for is my mother, grandmother and my sister. They all play a big role in my life and they make me the way that I am now and they also have a huge impact in my life. They also point out my flaws and they tell me how to be a better person. Thanks to them, they have taught me a lot and without them I wouldnt have the great personality I have today.
            I am grateful for my mother because she was always there when I needed her the most and she has taught me the rights and wrongs in life. She also helps me get through everyday and shes the most helpful person and Im so grateful for her. She makes sure i have a roof over my head, food im my mouth, and clothes on my body.
             I am grateful for my grandmother because she is basically like my second mother. She was always there for me through thick and thin. She also helps me get through everyday and im thankful for that. She was always there when no one else was like my mother. She taught me how to cook and take care of others in need because thats what she does the best. I am really thankful for these people in my life.

 On Friday i went to my cousins' house up in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. We had lots of fun and I met some new people there. We were outside for most the time even thought it was cold but we occupied ourselves. Then we would go inside and play Xbox and eat a lot. But other than it being really cold we had fun.





 Then on Sunday i came back home from Pennsylvania and went to West Milford for my mothers baby shower. I was happy for her about to have a baby. The baby shower was lots of fun and everyone had a great time. There was little games to play, food, and other things. I went with most my family and my friend Kiyarra and we had a good time.

Web 2.0: Multimedia Blog Pre-Posting

This year I'm taking World History with Ms. Garvin. She is a good teacher and has a lot of potential.  She was a student here at the Wood-ridge High school and then went to the University of Perdu. But she is now a history teacher at Wood-ridge High school. She also is a runner now and she also was a cancer victim but she is a survivor. She has a obsession of the Rock. In class she is a great speaker and has a strong voice and always has faith in us students.

This year I expect to learn about World War II because my great grandfather was involved in it and it interest me and i also would like to learn about the Holocaust. I also want to learn about the Civil War because i already heard a little about it in 8th grade but i want to learn more information about it. Now in class she is teaching us about the renaissance period in Europe and painters in that time. 

Her grading policy is mostly like all the rest of the teachers.So, 40 percent is Summative Projects. Another 40 percent is the performance based assessments. 10 percent is homework and the last 10 percent is formative assessments including participation. So far we did a little group project that was about painters paintings and how they had diffrences and similarities and so far that was the only one. But I'm looking foward to many others.In her class we use technology for projects and to research diffrent things about a specific subjects.
