reading reponse of the Future of Us :week 3

-
      I haven't finished reading the Future of Us but so far so good. It is about these two teenagers named Emma and Josh, who had been friends and neighbors for as long as they can remember. They drifted apart after Josh misread the situation and made a move on Emma, but Emma did not feel the same way. So Josh being a guy kept her at a distance even though they went to the same school and still had the same friend group. It got very awkward at times, but they made it work.
     The setting is in the late 90's. The setting is important because it is about how the two tweenagers saw in the future through facebook though it hadn't been invented yet. There are a lot of words and phrases that we don't use anymore. Like CD-ROM and their old computers. In conclusion, it is a good book so far.

      After seeing Evan M's blog, I realized that we all have a platform to speak our minds and express our feelings. We can also use it to talk about topics that mean something to us. I am using mine to talk about waffles and pancakes. Yes, I know that sounds silly, right? But this is a serious debate between the two breakfast items.     First off, I have more experience with pancakes so I will try not to be biased. Pancakes are just flat cakes; it's in the name, PAN-CAKES. They are delicious. However, pancakes aren't very syrup effective, and they also can get quite soggy and cold quickly.      Waffles, on the other hand, are way more syrup effective as they have little pockets specialized for the syrup. And that is necessary for enjoyment. But if you aren't careful, you could end up with a too crunchy, dry, or burnt waffle. But in the end, it isn't up to me to say which is better as they both have great qualities. I have presented my case, and now the reader

research post q3 w3

        My topic is about Mongolian Society under the reign of Genghis Khan in the 13th century.  My research question is: How did Genghis Khan make such a vast empire in such a short period of time and what was that empire like? My topic is interesting because Genghis Khan built one of the only nomadic empires to last. One reason I wanted to research this topic was that I felt like no one really knew anything about the Mongols. People know that they were nomadic and that it.      My subcategories are the Mongol army, what religion they practice, the food they ate, the Mongolian government, and their conquests in the 13th century. The empire matters because they helped start the Slik Road. They opened the entire empire for trade.

United by Naomi Shihab Nye week 5

-
      Naomi has made  a great  number of poems, but I chose this one because the name sounded  strong . What does it mean to be united? That is a question that I have been trying to answer for a while now. Does it mean to be loyal and  true  to yourself? The definition of unity is the state of being unified or joined as a whole. United is about how the different state mottos combine into one. They combine the mottos into one message about unity. She has good sentence fluency throughout her piece. It ties into America being a unified country.
