What I learned in English 10
What I learned in English ten second quarter was the different types of themes, irony, and what is the characters and readers points of view. Prietser had showed me allot about how I can join in on an online conversation and how I can create a poll. I had also learned that I can join in on a contest that can benefit the school or any school in the state. She showed us this cool website that can help us create an online persuasive project. It was simple and easy, you can try if you want to. I have learned new vocabulary almost every day and have learned to explain ambiguity in text. n blogger I can post comments and create a project that celebrates a holiday online. Also on blogger I can write about anything even my days on the campus I live on. On Google docs I was able to learn about creating my own graphic organizer and publishing it on the web. Another thing on blogger you can create new pages and embed new projects that are shown around the world. It is safe and harmless if you learn to use it correctly. I also can crate a poll that I can have others rate my writing. I also learned how to make a quiz for friends and family. Those quizzes are actually fun and can be for any subject. I also have a delicious account and can make new bookmarks about any vocabulary or events that are happening.

“The Lady or the Tiger?”
I would rather be tried under the court system because doing time in jail is way better then getting mauled by a hungry tiger, well at least I think so don’t you? One reason I would want to be tried under the court system is because there are some crimes that you can do and get a small consequence and then again there are some crimes that have major consequences. One reason I wouldn’t want to be tried under the kings system is because a guilty person can make a lucky guess and chose the door with the lady behind it and vice versa if a innocent person is tried and took a bad guess and ended up getting ripped to shreds by a angry tiger then the guilty person lived and a innocent person died for no reason. So that is why I would want to be tried under the court system because I would rather spend three years in jail for stealing a brand new car from my neighbor. The United States Justice System is way better then the kings system because if you go by the kings system you would have to worry about what door a hungry tiger is standing waiting for you to open it then your dead but if you go by the court system you don’t have to worry all that all you have to worry about is what your going to jail for and how long you are going to be in jail. If you’re in jail for a very long time then that sucks for you doesn’t it.

“The Gift of the Magi” - Surprise Ending.
When I finished reading the story I felt the same way when I first started reading the story. The reason I felt the same way is because although the couple sacrificed things that were important to them so they can buy each other a Christmas present they could of put their money together and bought each other presents instead of sacrificing important things that they both had. Another reason is because if they really loved each other one of them would buy the other a present and say that it is okay if you didn’t get me a present because all I want is to make you happy on a warm Christmas day.

“The Gift of the Magi” - The Item I’d Save.
If a dangerous earthquake happened and I could save one item I would save some of my old pictures of me when I was little because every day I see homeless people who are living on one pair of clothes, but I bet they don’t have one picture of them when they were little or a picture of their family. The reason I would save my baby pictures is because there is a saying “ a picture is worth a thousand words” and if I have one picture I could remember what I was doing and I can also look back at that time and see what it looked like back then when I was a little kid. Another reason I would save my baby pictures is because when I’m grown up and I want to look back and see what I looked like, or if I’m having a bad day and I happen to look at one of my baby pictures I could start to feel happy because I looked back at my childhood and look at how much fun I had.
