SWOT


I want to expand my vocabulary choices by reading at least 30 minutes a day. I’ll know I have reached this goal when I can use these vocabularies in essays and analyses.

The Journal of a Cuban Revolutionary Soldier

People called him José Alvaro. He was a Cuban soldier that fought for justice alongside Fidel Castro and Ché Guevara against Batista and his corrupt government. José goes through many experiences as he survives through the Cuban revolution. This is his story about his agony, vehement, and calamity through the Cuban revolution.

The Cuban revolution was an important time in Cuban history. Violence plagued the streets and ordinary men had become guerilla combatant As a main event that happened between 26th of July 1953 to the 1st of January of 1959, the Cuban revolution took place. It was an armed revolt led by Fidel Castro against the government of Fulgencio Batista  This success of the Cuban revolution depended on the participation of Ché Guevara as he had one of the most important role during the revolution. He was the army’s official doctor, the revolts’ logical  strategist and the revolution’s main ideoligist. His leadership guided the revolution to success.

Was the Cuban Revolution Worth It?

This is a video made by Eloise, Emily, and Hannah. It talks about the Cuban Revolution and the aftermath of the revolution and it also talks about whether the Cuban Revolution was worth the sacrifices made. The Cuban Revolution was an armed uprising in Cuba that overthrew Fulgencio Batista’s government on January 1st, 1959. This revolution was led by Fidel Castro, who later went on to rule Cuba from 1959 to 2008. I believe that this revolution was not worth it because the aftermath of the Cuban Revolution was not all that great. Although the citizens of Cuba were freed from Batista and his corrupted government, conflicts between the US and Cuba and made severe impacts and influences on Cuba. During the Cuban missile crisis that was part of the aftermath of the revolution, leaders of the US and the Soviet Union had engaged in a tense negotiation that lasted for a week. This crisis brought the US and the Soviet Union close to war over the presence of nuclear missiles in Cuba and it almost ended the world. In addition, the revolution had also caused Kennedy to ban US citizens from traveling or making financial transactions with Cuba. The embargo on Cuba had also devasted the nation’s economy for more than 50 years. In conclusion, I believe that the Cuban revolution was not worth all the sacrifices made as the aftermath of Cuba was not pleasant.

From this unit, we can tell that most revolutions start out with a nation that has a corrupted government or monarch and that the nation’s society is divided into two classes, the poor and the rich. Most of the time, it’s the poor that leads the revolution against the rich and the corrupted. In short, revolutions are an uprising of violence that occurs when the population revolts against the government, most of the time due to political oppression.

That One Christmas Eve Dinner

The story “Fish Cheeks” is written by a Chinese-American writer named Amy Tan.  This story talks about how the protagonist is ashamed of her family’s tradition, during Christmas Eve dinner. The conflict starts out when her family invites the Minister’s family over for Christmas Eve. Coincidentally, the protagonist also has a crush on the minister’s son. This is where the external conflict comes. She is very embarrassed by her family and relatives during this meal and she wants to fit in with the Americans. For example, the story says, “What would Robert think of our shabby Chinese Christmas” or “What would he think of our noisy Chinese relatives who lacked American manners.” In another paragraph, it states, “Dinner threw me deeper into despair” For my Found Poem, I printed out a Goldfish with a black background. I cut out important words and phrases from the short novel and stuck them onto my goldfish background.

One Day : Positive Moments

 

Planning:

On One Day, I am going to work with Reina. We are planning to make a calendar with a photograph with quotes. The quotes and the month name are going to be written in calligraphy. The photographs are going to be taken by us two around the school or/and Google. The quotes will be also related to the month and the quotes will be inspiring.

Finished Product:

Reina and I are really proud of how our finished product turned out. I think we did well on designing our calendars and I learned that making calendars are not easy like I thought. It was difficult to find pictures because there weren’t a lot of pictures that we liked in the section where we can reuse the pictures.
I think One Day was really important because for One day you don’t have classes and you can have so much freedom doing something you like and want to do.
