Ghost by Jason Reynolds

I read the book host in humanities this unit, in this book they talked about how facing your fears you can accomplish or have a better chance of accomplishing your dream or what you want to accomplish. So in this video I discussed about the theme in the video below

Am I a humanist?

I think I am 100% a humanist because I think that every person should have the right to work hard to get a better life not just because they were born poorly so they will also be poor and that people have rights and deserve dignity, I also agree with all of the things above about the thoughts of humanist so I think that I am a humanist.

Found poem- Lamb to the Slaughter

My found poem is made from the short story “Lamb to the Slaughter” by Roald Dahl. The conflict of my poem is an external conflict I know this because it’s about Mary killing her husband; she didn’t even think if she should kill him or not. The protagonist is Mary the antagonist is her husband because Patrick is the one that caused himself to die. He told Mary that he is going to leave her and then when Mary finally slowed down she was too angry and then she killed him during the whole story there isn’t anywhere when Mary thought about if she should do something or not so there isn’t any internal conflict in this story but on the other hand, the external conflict is between Mary and her husband Patrick. My poem shows the concept because it says that shock motionless her first instinct was to hit him with a steel club A frozen leg of lamb All right, she told herself. So, I have killed him. I used the words shock motionless because it shows that she is in shock doesn’t know what to do then I said her first instinct was to hit him with a steel club A frozen leg of lamb it means that she wants to kill him and there is a frozen lamb leg, so she used it as if it was a steel club. My found poem shows that Mary was angry at her husband, and she took up a frozen lamb leg and hit her husband just like hitting him with a steel club. I found a picture online showing Mary grabbing onto a frozen lamb leg about to wick it onto her husband’s head, this is the main conflict of the story.

Final habitat mini project


1. What is your biggest take away from 6th-grade science?

My biggest take away from 6th-grade science is learning all the new facts that I didn’t know before, and what I learned from all of the new experiment we did.

2. If you were to write your own comment on the report card, what would you say?  How confident do you feel in making models in science, analyzing data, and constructing scientific explanations?

I think I will say that I am ok with science but I still need to improve in drawing models and my hypothesis. I think I am ok in making models in science, analyzing data, and constructing scientific explanations.

3. What would you like to work on for next year in science?

I would like to improve how I draw and explain the model I draw, also how to write a good hypothesis.

Reading project-holes


What book did you read and how did you like it?

The book I read this time is holes written by Louis Sachar

Explain how your project shows your thinking?

in this project, I focused on the two main characters zero and Stanley, and what is their characteristics, so when I was collecting all my notes I just chose the ones that connect with the person’s characteristics and drew a symbol for it.

How did this project level-up your thinking or stretch you as a reader?

This project had to make me focus more on what things to add in my final project and wich not to so I really had to think more about what to add and which one not to add

“Our story makes history” Final project


1) A one or two-sentence summary of the unit, “Our Stories Make History,” and the project you created.
This unit about our story makes history is simply just about recording our life during COVID-19. For my project, I drew a picture of what I’m doing during COVID-19.

2) Explain how you organized your project and why.
I organized my project putting my journal at the front then my collage, the 6-word memoir, my project, then my article and sources.

3) How might this primary source be useful to a historian, or even future 6th graders, in the future? What might they learn about/from your experience
I think this will be helpful for historians and future 6th graders because they can know what we did during the coronavirus and what happened.

4) What do you think went well for you in this unit? (What are you most proud of?)
I think to be able to complete my work and doing the projects.

5) What did you find challenging within this unit?
The Challenging part of this unit is completing some of the tasks and handing it in because some of them are really confusing but I did do it at last.

How has tools and weapon influenced us throughout history-technology

If we could do this project again I wouldn’t change all of the stuff, but I will definitely change the infographic I did because it isn’t really good. Also, what struggled for me when I was doing the project was, writing the script and getting it finished on time.

my cardboard arcade reflection

My biggest success for my cardboard arcade is when we had the cardboard arcade a lot of kid actually enjoyed playing our game and really liked it when our game broke, and we had to fix it a lot of kid were actually pretty sad, and when we finish fixing it some kid said “That game is finally fixed” and came back to play our game.

I think that my biggest obstacle was when our shooter broke all those times during the day at our cardboard arcade. It broke several times one after another so we had to close down our game for a while, but after I finished fixing the broken parts every time it broke I get it back in shape and slowly got used to what to do.

If I did this project again I would like to change it into another type of game because this one is to easy to break even when we made it all very neat and followed everything we needed to do (according to the video). A lot of kids also liked it but it was to easy to break so next time I would like to change it to another game.
