This is probably one of the last times I am going to write on this blog. I think that it was a good experience, but I don't want to be taking this much time out of my life. In total, if I did this for the rest of my life, I think it would be about a week of writing in total. I did not calculate it, but that is my estimate. Anyway, I am going to like summer. Some of the weeks I get to stay home and do whatever I want and some weeks I will be at camps. I think it is a nice mix. I like how in the summer you mostly get to do whatever you want. The only exception is summer packets. I think that it is nice to get a little work into summer so you are not as bored, but not a bunch. Anyway, this is pretty much the end of my blog. I think I will have a good summer and I hope that anyone who is reading this will too.

I think the year has just flew by so fast with so many great memories and so many funny moments and I will be going on to my next phase of learning. I hope I will do good in 7th grade next year. I think that it will be hard at first, just like 5/6 was, but then I will get used to the amount of work and what is expected of me. I have done very well so far, and I am not a person to break my streaks usually. I'm not sure how much I will be writing on this blog over the summer, probably not much. I still think that writing can be fun in this way where you can talk about anything. I hope all my teachers before this will remember me.

We had wacky recess today. I got kind of wet but not very wet. If you don't know, wacky recess is our school's version of field day. Field day is what they call it at most schools. I think that it is fun. It is a good thing to do at the end of the year as a little party if some people are not coming to the last day and a half of school. We also go to watch part of "Despicable Me 2". I think that it is a really fun and funny movie, so I want to finish it and see what happens at the end. I think that the last week of school in middle school and elementary school is mostly fun time. I like that they give you some fun in school so you can have fun with friends.

I can't believe it. School is almost over and it felt like it went so quickly. Also, this is my 200th post. I did not think I would be writing this much this year. Even though some of the posts just say what we did in class that day, I still feel like 200 is a really good amount for almost the whole school year. I think it is fun that you get to celebrate your posts. It just feels really good that I have written that much. I think I did this for when I had 100 posts and for when I had 150. I did it at 150 because I didn't think I would make it this far at the rate I was going at that point. Then we started doing our literary essays, so I got to post more and I am now at 200. In this whole year I will have 203.

I think that move up day gets less exciting as you go on. In 3rd and 4th grade you get to tour the school and get yogurt from the cafeteria. In 5th and 6th grade you do a teamwork game and get to know everybody. In 7th and 8th you see what you have to do over the summer and go over what you will be doing throughout the whole year in that particular class period. I think it is still fun, because it is a difference from regular school, but it is not as fun as 3rd and 4th where you just tour the school. I am really glad that school is almost out. I think that the most difficult part of my summer packet is going to be to read King Aurthur and write a one page essay on it. I also will have to do goal setting and community service which should not take too long.
FINAL LITERARY ESSAY
Have you ever felt lonely without any friends? In the story I Survived the Shark Attacks of 1916 by Lauren Tarshis, Chet realizes that friends are important.
Chet is upset that his friends don't like him anymore because he played a bad prank on them. There was a old legend that a monster lived in the creek that his friends swim in. He played a prank on them where he was the river monster and he made noises and jumped out which scared his friends. He worries that he will not be able to become friends again. Without friends, you are not very happy. "He kept thinking of that furious look on Sid's face when Chet came out of the water" (48). He understands that he needs friends to be happy, or else he will be lonely, and his old friends will never come back to him.
Chet's friends will still not come back and make up with Chet, and Chet is too scared to go back to them. He thinks they will just push him away if he tries to come to them. But when Chet realizes that there is actually a shark in the creek, his friends won't listen to him. He thinks his friends will be at the creek and he rushes there. Chet tells his friends that they have to get out of the water because there is a shark in the water. Sid was in danger of dying from the shark eating him. So, Chet dives in to save his friend Sid. on the way out, the shark bites Chet's leg. This is another reason that friendship is important, because if you are in a tough situation, you still have your friends to help you out.
Chet's friends come to talk to him. After the incident, Chet is in the hospital healing his bottom leg. He thinks that he will be alone in the hospital doing nothing for a long time. When a knock on the door comes, he thinks that it is his uncle, who is taking care of him, but it turns out it is his three friends who just came on a 2 hour train ride to the hospital. Chet is surprised they are there because he thinks that they might still not like him. He didn't think that they would come on a train ride just to see him and apologize. They came to apologize: "We're sorry about everything" said Monty" (84). This is another good thing that friends will do for you. They will come to comfort you.
In I Survived the Shark Attacks of 1916 Chet understands that he needs to have friends to feel good in life and to not be lonely. He knows that friends are important which indicates that he grows and gets wiser about things in life.

Today is a good day. I have Sciracy and I have PE. I like Sciracy because I like to create my own games. I like PE because we normally get to play fun physical games. We have been playing a bunch of baseball and kickball games. They came up with so many different versions of kickball. It is crazy how many versions they made. Anyway, I don't think that I am going to have much homework tonight, which is nice because it is the weekend. I still have to study for my end of the year math test though. I also have to make sure my science project is finish and I am set to present. I like that we don not have to do a test in science. I like that we only have to math.

My corporate and I went on a expedition. We were sent by the capitol. We saw a huge centipede and a random pedestal. We were walking along, sure not going to get a pedicure, but we found a peddler in the forest trying to sell us a pedal. We came across a temple, but all of a sudden we were captive in traps. I saw the warriors lined up in corps. Their captain seeme to want us for dinner. His corporal spoke to him. I think they want to decapitate me and eat my corpse. Incorporate me at dinner. We were in captivity. We escaped one day, I'm not going to tell you how, but we started to peddle becuase they took all our money. No one is going to captivate me ever again.

I was writing a draft for a letter to a Zambian person today. We don't really know who they are going to be, but we wrote drafts, so I think they are the ones that we are going to be sending, but I am not sure. I don't think that they will get back to us this year, because these letters have to go halfway across the world and back, and they would need about two days to write their letters or more because they have to use paper. I still think that it is cool that we are now sending letters to Zambia even if they will not get back to us in time. It makes me think about how lucky I am to even be typing this right now on a computer and know how to type really fast and go to a good school where there are nice people and I get to learn many things. My school was where I learned to type pretty fast. I think that I am very fortunate and I have many luxuries.

My science experiment went really good. I woke up this morning and there were crystals all over the pipe cleaner that I used. I think it is really cool that some plain old Borax can turn into nice pretty crystals. I just can't get over that fact. Every time I look at them I think that I did that with just some simple materials. Now for this science project, I have to make a video with all of the steps of what to do to make the crystals appear. I think that it will be pretty easy to do because I am getting a little head start form everyone else by doing it at home. I think that I won't have any science homework this week because of the project. I might have some on the weekend.

I did a science experiment tonight. It was about growing crystals using borax and water. I think that it is pretty cool that we get to choose whatever project I want to do. I think that using borax to grow crystals is awesome. I have to wait to see if it worked. It said that I needed to wait overnight for the crystals to grow overnight. I think that this will work. the other thing I still have to do is study for my science test. It shouldn't be too hard, because I know most of the concepts and the last science test I took I got 100% so I think that I am going to get that or maybe only a few points worse. I think as long as I study tonight I will do good.

Journal Response Prompt: Tell me about a character you really dislike in this book. What kind of person is this character, and why is he/she your least favorite? Give specific examples from the book to help me understand your choice.
My least favorite character in the book is Madam Lockton. She is a loyalist and she is a spoiled brat that will not do barely anything for herself. Also, she gets very mad at her servants when they just do tiny mistakes. Here is an example from the book from page 51: " One day she beat her with a fireplace poker". One of Madam's other servant's is telling the main character what Madam did to another slave. This proves that Madam gets very mad at her servants even if they do something only a little wrong. Here is another example from page 68: " Girl, the bedding needs to be aired". Here is an example where she is making the main character work and she does not like it. She will not do any of these things for herself because she has a slave. Overall, Madam Lockton is my least favorite character because she does basically nothing for herself.
