"Themes in To Kill a Mockingbird"




The mayor themes in "To Kill a Mockingbird are anger, rasing, teasing,influasion, admiration, and love.The author Harper Lee reveal the theme by showing and describing it in each character. I think that the lesson characters will learn is to notjust people by how they look just as the pharse "Dont judge a book by its cover"because in the book everyone maybe knows that Tom is innocent but just because he is a black men they want him to suffer.Then there come other people that don't want to be out of the group and choose to do what most of the others are doing.I also think that this is the lesson the author is trying to teach us.

E.L.A text prep action plan

My goals for the text prep are to do acuity practice at home and to read at least 20 minutes each day.My goal for this year is to concentrate more, use time in a useful way,and get a 3 in the E.L.A exam this year.I think that is I really ,really need to work very had do achieve my goals.I also think I could do better if I work harder in school.I also think that if certain people in the classroom be quiet I would be able to do better.According to the reading I want to understand the stories more while reading in a short amount of time.I believe that I would advance more because here there are teachers and other people that are always there to help me and I am willing to do it.

Listening Passage Mona Lisa

The theory that could possibly be true is that the Mona Lisa was a self-portrait of Leonardo Da' Vinci. For example, according to the story it said that a man using a computer found out that Mona Lisa was identical to Leonardo,which means that he made a self-portrait of himself as a woman.I think that the other choice are less possible to be true because if the portrait was so famous back then,and the woman really exist people would have seen her.

Character Unit Intro

Do people ever really change?Use example from your reading and experience to support your answer.

Yes I think that many people give a change in a certain time/siscortance.It could be a really small specific moment that took a big place in their life and made them change or it could be that you still don't know a person and then you start knowing them better or even sometimes that person could be giving innocent changes without knowing.For ex, when I was little I use to have a classmate and she was a brilliat girl in class, the person that always have her friend a hand, help her family in the house and got good grades, then she noticed that many people started liking her,so she though that she was popular.Time past and she started giving changes,she always though she was the best,and that she was the smartest,she made horrible rumors about people she didn't like in her school,and she disrespect her parents infront of her hole class.i could infer that it was maybe people that made her change because they always use to be treating her like Ms.perfect and she got carried away.

Eection Reflection

The thing that made this election historic is that this have being the first African American to be elected for president.For me Obama means change because he is a man that wants to help the country succeed.My feelings today about the country is that we are going to achieve or goals with the new president.More over to me Obama is a man that doesn't just tries to get people to vote for him butt,he also tries to be honest and show respect for everyone decisions.For the next 4 years I think Obama is going to hep our country walk forward.I think he is going to help us progress in th economic and with the law of no child left behind.The issue that I hope he first takes care of is the economic because that is the most important issue I thing is going on right now.Also i think that with the war h is not going to help to much because he said that he is going to let the war continue for 5 years to see what happen, however he is just going to be president for a year, unless in the next election they vote for him to be president again.

revenge of the wannables

Well Massie have found out that Alicia have being making her own sleepover. The next day they had a fight ,after that Alicia choose to go on her own path and be herself not Worring so much of Massie(like how she use to sometimes envy her)Alicia is now with her best friend Olivia and they are about to get famous.Alica and Olivia really in to her program of teen-people but the problem is that many people are jealous of her and they want her to suffer.I could infer that Massie is going to be the antagonist really soon because she is starting to be nasty to Alicia and they use to be bf.now i could say that Alicia self-steem is going higher because she is doing what she believe in and not just what people want her to do.i could predict that in the future alicia x-best friends are going to be her obstacles because they are starting to make Alicia and people nae her bad.They go to Alicia parties goes to make fun other and her fans. getting in Alicia shoes I would just do what she is doing ingoring them and doing what I believe.
