Speed Test at School

At school, we tested the speed at our school. Here is the result:

Where I will be in ten years and so on....

In ten years time, I will be in university in America. I want to go to the same university that my dad went to which is called Marquette. I also want to stay at a dorm so I won't be late. I want to learn how to become a scientist and a composer or an opera singer.

I am interested in becoming a scientist because I want to explore more about space. I also want to try to find something different than others. I am also interested in becoming a composer because I enjoy music and I want others to enjoy the music that I make.

My plan to make it happen is to study hard and to pay close attention to little things. Pak Rinto can help me become a composer because he know a lot about music. My teachers at school can be a big help to me because there is so much I need to learn about science.

In twenty years, I will be an opera singer performing concerts around Asia and America. If I still have the time, I would like to also become a scientist.

What I learned from the Ancient Greece Presentation

In the Ancient Greece Presentation, I learned how to write my name using the Greek alphabet. I learned that the Greek Alphabet can look like shapes or like our alphabet, but changed a little bit. It was hard to look at the alphabet because it was small.

The second thing that I learned was about the Greek gods. I learned that Zeus was the most powerful god. I also learned that Aphrodite was the goddess of love and beauty. The Greek gods were very interesting to learn about.

The third thing that I learned was about the Greek sports. The girls' sport was juggling. They had to juggle as many balls as possible. Boys played hockey instead.

The third thing that I learned was about Greek numerals. I learned how to write how many numbers were in my name: AMANDA

1 2 3 4 5 6 =

The fourth thing that I learned was about Greek food. They ate bread, honey cakes and much more. They drank water like we did.

The last thing that I learned was about coins. The Greeks put a picture of a Pegasus the front of the coin. They put the Pegasus image on a hammer. When they smashed the metal with the hammer to form the coin, it left the Pegasus image on the coin. Soon they started using the Roman coins.

What I learned from the Ancient Egypt Presentation

In the presentation, I learned about haow to wrap a mummy in the process. Here are a few of the steps that I remembered:

• put wine on the body
• cut open the left side
• remove the intestines, lungs, and liver
• scoop out the brain from the nostrils
• they put good smelling perfume
• wash it in the river Nile
• put oil
• let it dry for forty days
• put in the first coffin
• then in the second coffin
• put it in the tomb

The second thing I learned was what they use to tell the time. They used a water cup. The way it worked was they waited for the water in the cup to rise up. When the cup was full, it meant that one hour had passed.

The third thing I learned was about what they ate and drank. They normally drank from the nile river. They also would gather wheat that grew near the river Nile. They would make soup or bread with the wheat.

The fourth thing that I learned was about their clothing. Men normally wore cloth from their waist down to their knees. The women wore cloth all the way down to their ankles.

The last thing that I learned was about how to write my name in Hyroglyphics. I learned that the characters looked like little pictures.

Charlie Chapter Summaries

Chapter 7:

Charlie’s Birthday:

Charlie entered the room and his family shouted, “Happy Birthday” to him. Charlie was surprised. For his birthday present he got a WONKA'S WHIPPLE-SCRUMPTIOUS FUDGEMALLOW DELIGHT from Grandpa Joe. Charlie and Grandpa Joe really wanted a golden ticket. The whole family knew that they both wanted it. So, everyone paid close attention when Charlie started to open the chocolate wrapper. Apparently, Charlie faked it and said that he had it. Everyone was sad. Charlie wanted to give them part of his chocolate but no one would accept even a little bit of it.

Chapter 17:

Augustus Gloop goes up the pipe :

When Mr. Wonka was surprised to see Augustus Gloop who was scooping out the chocolate from the chocolate river with his hands! Mr. Wonka corrected Augustus not to touch the chocolate by hands, but he didn’t listen. When Augustus reached the river too far, he fell in! His mother cried out that he couldn’t swim yet. Every one tried to get him out, but it was too late. He went up through the pipe, which led to Pipe Room. Mr. Wonka called the Oompa Loompa to bring Mrs., Gloop to the Fudge Room to find her son.

Charlie Bucket Description

Charlie is a boy who is incredibly skinny! It makes him look similar to a skeleton. All they get to eat was bread and margarine for breakfast, boiled potatoes and cabbage for lunch, and cabbage soup for dinner every single day. Sunday was a special day to every one in the family because they could all have second helpings. Whenever his parents give him their share of food, Charlie wouldn't accept it because they need food too. Charlie's family is very poor.

Everyday on the way to school, Charlie passes the great chocolate factory owned by a man named Mr. Willy Wonka. Charlie really adores Willy Wonka's Chocolate. Not only does Willy Wonka make chocolate, he can make bubble gum that would last it's taste for a long time, ice cream that would never melt, and sugar balloons that can be blown up to huge sizes before they would pop.He would stop by and smell the scent of the wonderful chocolate that was being made. Charlie really wants to find a golden ticket in one of Wonka's Chocolate bars.

His birthday was a really special day because he would get one chocolate bar. That was the only chocolate bar that he would get in a whole year! Since it was very special, he only took one tiny nibble each day.
