Middle school students should be drug tested. Middle school students shouldn’t have anything to hide. First of all, students could be hidden in pockets, backpacks and sometimes drugs look like highlighters Drugs could be hidden in lunch bags and lunchboxes but teachers and other staff want to prevent that before it happens. According to []. Some lady Spartan at Pleasant Middle School said that “this drug test is good, it stops drug use”. Parents say that drug testing violets their rights.

Middle school students could already be using drugs. Students that are randomly drug tested were less likely to use drugs in the future when they get older. Also 6% of students admit that they have ever consumed alcohol. Coaches and teachers want to prevent students from bringing or doing drugs such as steroids, marijuana and alcohol to school. And that’s why schools don’t want students like that to stay that way a drug addict

Middle school students could have started to use drugs at an early age. For some middle scholars drug use starts in childhood. Mostly kids start doing drugs because other kids at school offer them and that’s when they get attached to them. Teachers want kids to get help because of this drug addiction. Students need to be drug free to be in school activities and sports.

Also students who are choosing DRUGS over sports then are getting addicted to the one they are using. Also the students who come into our schools could spread the drug addiction to other students and the teachers want to stop the drug violent. Before it spreads so that’s why so many schools are doing the drug test. Teachers want to fix this problem before it gets out of hand. The amount of students who are doing drugs is unbelievable.

Students who are doing drugs don’t plan on stopping soon enough to get therapy for their addiction. Also students seem to not get caught because they hide the drugs really good. Students should be drug tested many people don’t think this is right but more people think students should be drug tested. Teens are running there life with these drugs.

Middle school students should be drug tested

Middle school students should be drug tested the first reason why they should because students shouldn’t have anything to hide. Some lady Spartans at pleasant middle school said “drug testing is good; I think this is help stop drug use”. The students will refuse dugs and alcohol with peer pressure. Drugs are easy to hide in backpacks. And sometimes they look like a highlighter. Also parents say that making the students take a drug test violets their rights. Students could hide these drugs in pockets and lunch bags but teachers want to prevent any of that. The second reason is that students could already be using drugs. This is that students who were randomly tested for drugs were less likely to use them in later years. Students who were tested for drugs and alcohol. 6 percent said they had ever consumed alcohol. Schools who do drug test students can be already addicted to drugs. Schools don’t want other students to be those kinds of kids and for the kids who are already addicted the teachers will make sure that they get help. The third reason is that Students start to use these kind or any kind drugs at an early age. Coaches and teachers want to prevent students from bringing or doing drugs such as steroids, marijuana and alcohol. Students also need a drug test to get in any sport or any activities. Doing drugs starts in childhood. Some coaches, teachers and school administrators said drug-testing programs served as a deterrent for middle school students encountering drugs of all kinds, including steroids, marijuana and alcohol. Teachers and coaches from school want to prevent students from doing drugs so they do a drug test to make sure that they don’t do any kind of drugs. Also students who are choosing DRUGS over sports then are getting addicted to the one they are using. Also the students who come into our schools could spread the drug addiction to other students and the teachers want to stop the drug violent before it spreads so that’s why so many schools are doing the drug test. Teachers also want to fix or solve this problem before the problem gets too big for them to handle. The amount of students who are doing drugs at school don’t plan to stop anytime soon also the amount of people that are doing drugs and don’t get caught is a really big amount.

 * 1) I disagree that it’s better to be a nobody than a somebody because if you are a nobody than you have no life, nobody cares about you and nobody talks to you and you feel lonely. Two keys that are different between a somebody and a nobody is that a somebody has friends everyone knows them they told there name and a nobody has no friends didn’t tell their name and hardly anyone knows them.


 * 1) I would rather spend an afternoon with Emily Dickinson because if I’m or someone else is with her then she won’t be a nobody anymore she will be a somebody cause people are talking to her she will tell her name.


 * 1) This image of Whitman’s view is that he’s happy good but in the other picture he looks mad like he wants to kill somebody. Whitman means of one big world is enough is that it’s the far the largest to him and that that is him. Whitman is saying to his readers that the world goes on no matter it could go on for another thousand years or even ten million years life goes on.

=Yale study may be barking up the right tree=

The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

 And sorry I could not travel both

 And be one traveler, long I stood

 And looked down one as far as I could

 To where it bent in the undergrowth;

 Then took the other, as just as fair,

 And having perhaps the better claim

 Because it was grassy and wanted wear,

 Though as for that the passing there

 Had worn them really about the same,

 And both that morning equally lay

 In leaves no step had trodden black.

 Oh, I kept the first for another day!

 Yet knowing how way leads on to way

 I doubted if I should ever come back.

Looking at teeth opens a window on the past? BY Los Angeles Times Newsela.com

The article looking at teeth opens a window on the past? Is about people studying people’s teeth from about 1,000 years ago. This information may help scientists know what they ate. The scientists also will learn what diseases they had. Studied from the ancient times. It's hard for scientists to get much DNA from bones. They found much more DNA in the tooth plaque. Much of the DNA came from bacteria. This bacteria causes cavities. Scientists discovered bits of plant DNA in the teeth. This shows what people ate 1,000 years ago.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Newselea.com

The article “Should homework count for grades “is about kids not being grading for their homework the students are only getting graded on the scores that they get on test/quizzes. Lot of people say that this is a good change but that some teachers are scared of this new change. People also say that students shouldn’t get grades/points for the homework when in test if you get a bad grade then you can redo the test and take it again. Some parents don’t like the new change that some schools have made because the parents are afraid that the students won’t have homework to do. Also won’t learn anything like study from a test or review what you have learned in class. Also some teachers say that homework is important to the kids but teachers say the new way works.

The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton is an excellent book. It shows how its main character changes over time. Like for Ponyboy he changes by the deaths of Johnny and dally. Also this book was just not excellent it was amazing because when the class read like a chapter you couldn’t wait to see what happened next because it was so exciting and interesting.

The outsider is a sad book because like Ponyboy has had a rough life. His parents died both of them and also Ponyboy and his friend Johnny run away and then two soc’s come and one starts to drown pony and Johnny thought that they were going to kill him. so Johnny takes out his blade and stabs the soc and then when the soc died and the other one ran away then Johnny and Ponyboy ran away because they knew that the police was going to be here any minute so they left and they cut their hair so no one would recognize them then there was a fire and that’s what killed Johnny I know so sad. Then dally died because he missed his friend Johnny.

My ending for the Outsiders

===My ending for the Outsider’s is something like this well the greasers are going to have a memorial for Johnny and dally/Dallas. Also they are still going to fight but next time they fight they are going to fight for both Johnny and Dally. They are going to fight for both of them because both of the greasers liked to fight and win also. But this time they won’t be fighting they will be watching the fight somewhere else. Also the soc’s are still going to jump the greaser’s whenever they want because there’s less and they have been becoming weak because of the both deaths that have accord.===

===Also Ponyboy is going to get arrested for stealing or doing drugs. Like Pony boy said when dally died that” when dally called him he was running from the police because I’d just had broken into a store”. But soda will like cheery and Darry will start to worry about Pony boy because two deaths when one had just happened with his friend and another like two days later Dally died because he cared a lot for Johnny and he just couldn’t take anymore.===

My life in two years…

==My life in two years I would be in the ninth grade. I would also have better grades then I have right now because I will do all my homework when I have any homework. I will also have a better life because I will have no distractions and no one telling me what to do. I will also tell every teacher I have and every one I know my name Is Daniela not Daniel because for about 3 or 4 years now people have been telling me who’s Daniel and I would say as always “it’s Daniela and I’m right here”. Also I will probably move to Texas or somewhere out of California because my family’s wants to move somewhere were it’s not California. Also in two years my niece will be two years old and I will be 14 years old. “Man I’m getting old” I will be in church school of 3 years not a lot. But I will also I will have my own little store of cakes, cupcakes and other desserts in my kitchen.==

==I will also have a better house because “we are remolding it with new furniture and some new clothes and a new Flat screen TV yay”. But you want to know the bad part of being in ninth grade is that you get more homework and I will have to stay up until at least 2 or 3 in the morning finishing up my projects or Homework. Also in two years I will have a pool in my backyard because this summer of 2014 I’m getting a big pool, not of cement that you buy at the store where it can fit at least 8 or 10 people. My life in two years would be pretty amazing if I have a good school year it’s off to tenth grade and it start all over again.==

The Monkey’s Paw

===In the story "The Monkey's Paw," Sergeant Major Morris foreshadows the bad fortune brought by the monkey’s paw. When the White family asked about a previous owner’s wishes. Morris replied. "The first man had his three wishes, yes," was the reply. "I don't know what the first two were, but the third was for death. That's how I got the paw." Also Sergeant Major Morris foreshadows that the monkey's paw will bring bad fortune by when he throws the paw in the fire and when the paw starts to burn the old man bends down and grabs and the sergeant Morris said “better let it burn”. And when the old man said “give it to me” Morris said “I won’t” and then the old man threw the paw in the fire again. Also when the old man asked Morris if he can keep it Morris said after if you keep it don’t blame me for whatever happens Sergeant Morris also says” but I warn you of the Consequences”.===

Fast & furious 5 and 6

===Fast & furious 5 and 6 are similar first of all they both have the same characters Brian O’Conner, Dominic Toretto, and many more. But also they are similar by they are both about racing and getting away from the police and racing around the world so they don’t get caught. They are different because in the fast five you would just be dying to see what would happen next because it would become so interesting.===

===In the 6th movie Letty comes back but she doesn’t remember Dom or anything like in the 5th movie it said that she was back so it wasn’t that surprising or anything but the both movies I love because how they act and when they punch each other it looks so real. I compared and contrasted Fast & furious 5 and 6.===

144 words
2/18/14 Compare and Contrast 6th and 7th Grade

===In some schools 6th graders only have to stay in one class and 7th you have other class and you only have 5 minutes to get to your next class. Also in 7th you get more homework because you have more teachers then 6th grade. And in 6th grade you only have homework from your one teacher. Also in 6th grade students get recess and lunch recess but not 7th grade there’s no time for your snack or have time to play around. You have to get straight to class or your teachers will mark you late and you don’t want that.===

===Also in 7th grade you to take computers home but you have to return them by the end of the school year but in 6th grade you can’t take them home yeah you get to use net-books but only in class but you don’t get to take them home like us 7th graders do. 6th and 7th grade aren’t really that different we just do stuff different but we all go to school and get an education.===

===Like if someone told you “lets go to the bathroom and the other person says sorry I only have 5 minutes”. And in 6th grade someone tells you “lets go to the bathroom” you can go because you have recess.===

Is There Too Much Pressure on Girls to Have ‘Perfect’ Bodies?

I think there is too much pressure on girls to have perfect bodies because you forcing someone to be someone there not. Also I think that there is too much pressure on girls because if they can’t or don’t want to be forced to have a perfect body then they shouldn’t. Also in schools girls are either obsessed or forced to have the perfect body they dream of having. There obsessed because they like someone or there getting picked on, also they are forced because some people might pick on you and you are wanting the perfect body so they will stop picking on you. So if you are one of those girls then don’t try to change who you really are and if are one of the girls that want to have the perfect body then go ahead and try.

The symbol of the rose means...

Roses have been a symbol for love and beauty. In Christianity the five pedals mean the five wounds of Christ. The red rose was eventually adopted as a symbol of the blood of the Christian martyrs. Also a bouquet of roses means love for valentines. A red rose is a symbol of socialism or social democracy. But even if the rose has many symbols it’s still the symbol of god by the pedals.

My life in twenty years will be very different I mean very different. First of all I will be either 30 or 29 I think I will be. But even though I might be in my thirties or twenty’s I would still be In collage because I would like to be an artist, but I would also like to be a baker but I don’t need to study for that I already know how to bake cakes, cupcakes and any dessert you name it. But also in twenty years I will have a great future and probably may have a family but that will be in a long time from now. Also in twenty years I will have a bakery where I will work every day because as I said before I love to bake that has been my passion since I was 11 years old when I first saw a show called cake boss I fell in love with baking because I saw how a man called buddy make cakes and other pastries for his costumers. In twenty years I will have a career or I will be still in collage like I said in paragraph 1 but once again my life in twenty years will be very different from the life I have right now. In twenty years I would also like to travel the world with my family because since I was about 5 years old I always wanted to see other places in the world and maybe even live someplace else other than San Diego. But there are some places I would like to travel with my family I mean my parents, sisters, niece and dog (my baby). And when I open my bakery I would like to live In Italy or someplace where there is no natural disaster like Texas or New York. And when I become famous because of my bakery I will appreciate everything my family did for me because they will helped me accomplish my dream. Oh and also I would like to be a chef like my dad but I will have to go to college for that because I still need practice but I didn’t see a show the only thing I saw that inspired me was my dad he loved to cook and sometimes help me bake and that’s why I would like to be a chef just like my dad. And also I would also like to be a veterinarian because I love animals maybe not all the animals but I sure do love dogs and I could get used to cats but I’d still be a veterinarian and no one told me to be this I just love helping animals again not all animals because if I see an injured dog or cat I call my parents and see if the animal has a tag if not then take him to the vet. Oh I haven’t told you about the place I would love and I have been dying to go to Paris, France the city of love well that’s what a lot of people say. You want to know why I want to go Paris it’s because I just love how the people there that actually were born there it’s there accent how they talk it’s just so funny” how may I help you sir this evening” it’s just so hilarious. Also I’ve seen pictures on Google of Paris and it’s just beautiful and on the places I would go to when I go Paris go see the Eiffel tower and inside I mean lots of people said that there are resterautns and malls but I want to go see it for myself. But maybe I will go to Paris and stay there for a year or so but I will go see the Eiffel tower that’s a promise.

Life in twenty years could be fun but hard also like I won’t live my parents anymore I will have my own family with no one to tell me when to come home. Also I won’t play with my sister’s anymore because they will be old and I will be old and I hate being old but sometimes I wish I was old because when I’m old I won’t have to sleep in the same room as my sister now and I won’t have to go to school so early but I will still go to school. Also I won’t be able to maybe my grandparents or other people I love with all my heart but the point of this essay is my life twenty years and I f I wrote places that I want to go I will go because I will have a great future and life I just have to believe I can do it.

1. The meanest thing scrooge has done is say bad things to his nephew and Mr. Crachit. Scrooge doesn’t want to go to the dinner that his nephew Fred is having. And scrooge won’t go to the dinner because he hates Christmas. And also when crachit asked to put more coal in the fire because he was cold and scrooge said “then wear another jacket”. 2. a) Jacob Marley was Ebenezer Scrooge’s partner but Marley had died and scrooge was devastated. b) the clues from the story of his personality as a living person are that he was rude to everyone, he also didn’t give money to anyone. c) Jacob Marley is just like scrooge because they both are rude at others, they both don’t give to charity and to the poor and also them both hate Christmas and they are also rude to kids and older people.

6. a) some of the hints that scrooge may change for the better are that when Marley came to see scrooge Marley was wrapped in chains because he was rude just like scrooge and rude to others. b) I think people’s personalities can change they just need help by changing there attitude with others and giving to others. but I also think that people’s personalities can’t change just like that they need to work on it.

==The Christmas carol is compared to how the Grinch stole Christmas. The Christmas carol is a lot like how the Grinch stole Christmas for a lot of reasons, first of all the both scrooge and the Grinch are both rude others at the beginning of the movie. Also these two movies are similar because scrooge when he goes out on the streets and people ask him to please give some money to the poor and charity but all he said was “bah Humbug” and then he walked away. And for the Grinch when he went outside on the streets and people said” merry Christmas” and the he looked at who ever said that and then said “don’t care".==

==These both movies are also similar because in the middle of the stories the Grinch and scrooge saw how people would be with out money they be poor and with no home or food. And people would have not a great Christmas. And in the end of both stories scrooge and the Grinch grew a heart by giving money to charity being kind to people or giving back presents to the people in town.==

**I think this means..**
 * 10/12/13**


 * 1) **Mourner: scrooge goes to Marley’s funeral**
 * 2) **Covetous: scrooge wanting something that isn’t his**
 * 3) **Residuary legatee: someone who has died and someone misses them**
 * 4) **Bedlam: hospital or being really ,really sick**
 * 5) **Furnish: something to do with the fire**
 * 6) **Wager: scrooge lot a bet or lost money**
 * 7) **Parliament: confessing for something you did**
 * 8) **Morose: being sick**
 * 9) **Implored: being begged or asked**
 * 10) **Solemnized: being remembered or honored**

12/10/13 Early scrooge: In the beginning of the movie scrooge didn’t care about anyone. He didn’t give to money to charity or give money to people who actually need and that don’t have a home. Scrooge walks out of his shop when tiny Tim goes to him and says merry Christmas Mr. scrooge and scrooge says humbug because he doesn’t like Christmas or he doesn’t have Christmas spirit. Scrooge also doesn’t care about his employee because when Mr. crachit asked if he could but more coal into the fire because the shop was getting cold but scrooge said no that Crachit could wear another jacket scrooge was also rude to his nephew. Middle scrooge: In the middle of the story scrooge saw how poor people lived and how many families were in need of food and shelter. He also saw how families struggled to get a job to help their families get food and shelter so they can be warm and not on the streets. Scrooge also saw that he had two children that he didn’t even know about. They looked hungry and that they had to work a lot and only eat a little food and when scrooge saw them he was shocked that those kids were his. After they went there the spirit and scrooge went his nephew’s house and saw that he was making fun of hi uncle. Late scrooge: In the end of the movie he sent a really big turkey to the Crachit’s house for Christmas dinner, he also gave money to a boy but the biggest thing he did was that he gave money to charity and the poor. When scrooge went into his shop he saw crachit was late again so when he came in scrooge acted like he was going to fire him but out of nowhere he said “I’m going to double you salary” and that’s when Mr. crachit stayed in shock but he was happy.

===The Christmas carol and the Pearl are similar because they both have rich people and poor. The rich people in both stories are selfish, rude and uncaring they only thing of themselves and not others just because they are rich. The poor in both stories loving, caring and happy with what they have and who they have. Both scrooge from the Christmas carol and junna and Kino have kids that are hurt because something has happened to the like hunger no one to love them or care for them or don’t have a home.===

===Both stories have a theme that money doesn’t buy happiness and also that just because you more money than others you don’t have to be rude to others because you have better life if you don’t have nothing better to do with your money then give it to charity or some family who really needs it more than you do. But also the both stories scrooge and Kino don’t want to give away their money they want to keep it for themselves but in the end they both have to let go of the money. Like Kino he found a pearl and junna wanted to throw it back into the sea because it causing them a lot of trouble. And scrooge he had this big house and a lot of money and when poor people would ask for money scrooge wouldn’t give them not even a penny then in the end they both had to let go of money by giving it away to the poor families or they gave it all back from where it came from.===

12/5/13
Scrooge is a grumpy old man who was always rude to people he would always say “Get out of my way” instead of saying excuse me or walking around them. He also doesn’t care of some or a lot of people die. Scrooge is rich he lives in this very big house alone his heart is cold just like his house, one night scrooge was walking home and then suddenly he sees this carriage come by then the next thing the carriage is gone into the night sky then once he gets home he sees another ghost in the doorknob so he runs in quickly and locks the door with double lock and as he starts eating something weird happens he old partner Marley appears. Scrooge doesn’t believe that its him so then the ghost says to scrooge that he will be visited by three spirits. so when the first spirit comes he is taken to the past and then they see why scrooge became so mad at everyone it was because of his dad he didn’t care for him at all and the dad was blaming scrooge for the death of his mother at birth. Scrooge had a cold heart because of everything that had happened in his childhood. But I’m sure in the end scrooge will have a better heart and will be nicer to everyone.

=== There are both differences and similarities between the book breaking dawn and the movie. First of all, the book there are more people talking and more detail about how Bella and Edward getting married and them have a kid and Bella turning into a vampire all this has more detail in the book. In contrast the movie has little showing of how Bella has her kid, turning into a vampire and getting married to Edward. In the movie it only shows how they both get married and having a kid. However in the book it did tell how they got married what did they do after the baby was born and how she turned into the vampire and how she kept control about drinking blood. ===

=== The similarities between the book and the movie is that they both show that Bella turns into a vampire and has a kid and faces a big group of very important vampires because the kid was a human when she was born, however she was also born. Bella was human but something happened and the kid was a vampire when she was like 8 or 9 and that’s against the vampire law and that’s why the group of vampires is coming to get Bella and Edward and all the other vampires. ===

One of the themes in freedom riders was that violence is never the answer to anything. Although many of the people in the movie were they were sometimes different and sometimes the same. For example there is a girl and she had a lot to go through like her father got taken away and so there is a teacher that wants to make her high school students to be better in school and to be a better person. There is a boy who lost many family and friends because of violence but also there is the teacher who is having a problem of her own but that doesn’t stop her from helping her students. And in the end those students went on to college and they have a future because that one teacher helped them to make it all the way there.

This is my scary story… there was a small town with many people but very little kids
===Those kids were Isabella, Nadine, Rose, Alex, Ricardo, Scott they were all friends. But one day a man moved in to the old house on the hill his name is Mr. Lens he never liked kids and he wanted to get rid of all the kids in the town and he made sure he completed what he said.===

scott:we can't be trapped ...... TO BE CONTINUED
== 1) the goal that victor is trying to accomplish is that he wants to bring back the dead and he does because he made his monster out of body parts so when he put them togeter he brought back the dead. he failed because he thought that == == he could've stopped illness but he didn't so he failed. ==

== 2) what the creature means is that misery has made him a monster because he is all alone no one. i agree because victor did leave him alone and without no one he has become a monster. when victor didn't want the creature he left him forever and so without anyone he became a monster and a killer. ==

== 4) the monster wants a companion so he wont be alone ever again. i agree with victor on not to make another monster because he would be bringing more evil into the world and more people could be killed with two or more of those monsters. ==

== 5) i think so because he killed victors wife and it was not an accident he probably did it for revenge to victor. i do think the creature killed victors loved one because of revenge because victor wouldn't make another one of the monsters for the creature to be with and also because victor left the monster all alone and on its own. == **<range type="comment" id="461161114_1">10/18/13 Homework**
