The Outsiders: Chapter 1-4
The book we are all reading right now is called the Outsiders. It is a very interesting book. There is this boy and oddly, his name is PonyBoy. He has two brothers,Darry and Sodapop. Yes those are silly names but you eventually grow to like them. I think the author picked good names for them. I kinda don’t like how they always have to be careful because they might get jumped by a group of upper-class kids called the socs. I like to just call them Socks even though that’s not their name, but it looks like thats what soc is ’spose to sound like. Some times I woner how it would be like back then 30 some years ago when this book was set to be. It’s funny how they use words we wound.nt ever use now. I really like this book, it’s getting more and moreinteresting as you read on. It seemed boring but it’s awesome@
Right now i’m at an extremely good part in the bok where I can’t wait to read on.
School
In social studies right now at school we are learning about ancient Egypt. It’s a very interesting subjects and I like learning about it because it’s a fun subject and way better then social studies in grade Six. It’s fun learning about the Pyramids and how everyday life went for the average farmer or peasant. It must have been awesome to be the Pharaoh, because you get your own pyramid and statues of yourself with people bowing down to you. Last week we played this Egyptian game called Children of the Nile. It was pretty fun, you got to be the Pharaoh of your own mini city and expand it by adding houses and schools,temples and farmers, builders and stores. Also once you got pretty far in the game you could build really tall and awesome pyramids for when your Pharaoh like dies. We learn also about the Gods and Pharaohs of Egypt and basically everything that has to do with Egypt because Egypt is cool. Someday I wanna go there and like find a pyramid and explore inside of it. Bye.
First 8 days
Well, it’s been eight days since school start, truthfully and weirdly, I love it! It has been so much fun, almost every part of it (Except math). This has been the very first time in my life I have been actually excited to go to school in the morning. Last year I hated school but now I love it. The whole ‘working on laptops’ thing is awesome, it’s so much better then writing on paper and being boring like that. My favourite part of school would probably be social studies. I like Home EC too but I don’t like the book work, I’ll probably like it better when we get to cook or sew. I also have an awesome teacher. Probably my favourite teacher in the school. My favourite part about the classroom would probably be the couch and the fact that we don’t always have to work at our desks. I think the rest of the school year will be super awesome! I think gym is awesome too, I just don’t like the volleyball part because frankly,I really stink at it. I can’t wait to practice basketball because that is my all time favourite sport. Well, I’ll be sure to write more blogs later.PEACE

Hiyo :-]
