For our 7th grade trip we went to Lake Compounce. The location of the trip was in Connecticut. I think that we left at 8:45 or at 9:00. It took 20 to 30 minutes for every one could get on the bus. While i was in the bus waiting for the bus to leave i was listening to music. The trip to the theme park was awesome. What i was doing on the way to the theme park i was watching a movie on my psp, and when the movie was done i started to listen to music. The bus ride was was like 2 hour's. I felt exited to go on the trip to lake compounce because it was my first time going to this theme park.
Once we got to the theme park i started to stretch and directly went to the bathroom. The first ride i went on when i got to the park was a roller coaster called the wild cat. Then we went to wipe out, then to the saw mil, and then we went to the best roller coaster called the zoomerang. The zoomerang to me is the best because it twists and because it goes backwards. Then after that we went to eat. After we ate we went to "THE PIRATE", then we went to the ghost house, then bumping cars, then the last ride we went on was wipe our again
After that ride we left and went back to the school at at 3:45 i think

How does poverty affect the characters in Angela's Ashes? it effects them because they are in poverty like poor and are dying from hunger.
Why does the little babies keep getting sick? because they dont have alot of food to eat and because they are dying from infections.
If you were the mother or father how would you do things differently to give your family a better life? I would find a good job that pays alot and give them a roof.
What did the mother do wrong in the story? she kept getting pregnant when the family were at its worst times.
What did the father do wrong? he kept drinking and drinking, and he drank on Eugine's coffin.
Why do you think this family lives under these conditions? i think cause the parents keep getting rejected every time they try to get a job.
What can help this family? If the mother dose not get pregnant again and if the father gets a well payed job.
Do you know families who live in poverty like this anywhere? no
Is the poverty in Ireland worse than in America? Why or Why not? yes because in america we got alot of things like stores and technology, and in ireland their is no such thing as that.
How is the poverty in America different from the Poverty shown in Angela's Ashes? The poverty in america they give poor people food and a roof. And the poverty in ireland is the opposite of that.
What advice would you give to this family? to a well payed job and the mother to get less pregnant

I-movie for ms. bentley
Angel Gonzalez
What i liked about using i- movie is that you could create your own movie. Working with my alhaji, josue, and isaias was fun cause alhaji made mostly all of us laugh in the group. The worst thing about working in the movie was not having everyone agree with you or disagree with you. But still it was fun.

IMOVIE BLOG

It was fun using imovie. I had alot of fun doing the imovie project with my friends and letting other people in it. When i showed the video in class yesterday, some of them liked it and some of them did not. The feed back that they gave me was to make the video longer and put more information of the video. I need to put more video's in it make people talk more and make it better than it was before.
The other videos that i saw in class were good because the people who made it explained more what it was about. I dont think that my video is not the best "YET" i think that it was between good and bad. I liked marijo's group video because they explained who was their character which was "James King" and because it was kind of funny. That it is very fun and has very cool effects. if someone ever see's my video, i think not that they will not understand the character osvaldo cruz much because we did not explain that much about him
We have several weeks left to finish our video and i got plenty more cool things to show the viewer's "IT'S A SURPRISE"
