pen is mightier than the sword, put your best foot forward

Mrs. Davis told us in the beginning of the year that the pen is mightier than the sword. We had to ponder over the meaning of that quote. She said it meant that writing is more powerful than fighting. It has to do with the power of the written word. We believe her but want to change it to say keys are mightier than the sword. Everyone in our group tries to put their best foot forward so they can continue to participate in the weblog group. Mrs. Davis also tells us we must proofread our paragraphs, and our writing must have pizzazz. We have become passionate about writing good posts and then publishing them

Weblog Reflections

When I first started weblogs I didn't know what to do. Mrs. Davis interviewed Angelica and I while we were having a competition. We both were excepted. I like to blog because I like to talk about current events. Mrs. Davis treats everyone equal so that no one is left out. Right know we are working on an A,B,C book. It is going to have every letter in the alphabet we can think of. Earlier this year my writings were not so good. But now being in this group my writings have improved big time. It also helped me expand my vocabulary. We only have one more day after today, so we are trying to fit in anything and everything we can. I will be sad when I have to leave, but I will be webbloging in the future.

About The Holocaust.

In class we are learning about the Holocaust. It is about when Hitler hated the Jews and killed them. It was the worst Holocaust in history. Hitler would put the Jews in concentration camps. Most of the time he would just line them up against a wall and shot them. He would take their clothes shoes and special belongings and throw them away. Very little lived through  the Holocaust. Those who live today from that period of time will never foget this event.

Going to Lake Ocone

           During spring break, I might go to Lake Ocone with my best friend, Desi. We will go swimming  and fishing. Hopefuly the water won't be freezing cold. I will also go swimming at Ocone on Easter Saturday. The rest of my spring break I will go to my Dad's house, and my Grandmother's house. On Saturday I have softball practice. I hope you have fun!

 

Softball- Second Draft

   I'm passionate about softball because most of my family and their friends played it. My step dad got me into it by telling me interesting stories about when he played. I started when I was 6.                

     My first few seasons I played center field because I am really fast. My next few seasons I started playing infield because I started getting the concept of softball. It's not easy! 

     What I really love to do is bat because if  you hit the ball you get to run, and I love to run . Batting  is also difficult . You have to know when to swing and you must swing level and hard.

       Last season I played left center and second base. It was fun because my coach got kicked off the field because  he yelled at the umpire. This season I pitch and play first base. Pitching is very dangerous because your the closest one to the batter. If you get hit you could easily take a trip to the hospital. Thas why I'm passionate about softball.                  

Softball-First Draft

I'm passionate about softball because most of my family and their friends played it. When I was 6 I started to play softball.

At first I didn't know the concept of it, but when I played my second season I loved it! I played catcher, left center , and short-stop for a while cause I caught and ran good. For my next couple of years I played center field.  What I really liked to do was bat. Sometimes I would get out, or hit homeruns. Last season I played center field and second base. My coach got kicked of the field a lot! It was pretty funny. This season I pitch and its pretty difficult if you don't know what your doing. My coach says its a dangerous job cause I'm the closest one to the batter, but I manage. Thats why I'm passionate about softball, its just plain fun!
