If I was chosen to wear invisible cloak for one day I would do good deeds. I would stop bad people from doing bad things. For example, I would stop people from stealing, That is a big thing that happens in today's world. I would stop people stealing from cars, houses, banks and more. I would also help all the abused humans or animals. I would get the humans right to a hospital to get them fixed up. I would take all of the animals to a vet to get them checked out and them bring them to a shelter.

I would also help the needy. I would  buy needs that they would need and go to them and give them it. For example, I would buy them snacks, tissues, wipes, clothes, socks and anything else they needed. I would do this because  I have a good life ans they should too.

           Over the four day weekend my friends and I did some fun things. We went to Applebee's the movies and just hung out at each others houses. Also I had a bonfire at my house and then that night some people sleepover. When we went to AMC Movies we saw Paranormal Activity. It was not the best movie it was okay.

On Saturday I went to the High school football game. It was the last game of the season. They played a really great game and the score was really close. In five seconds left on the fourth quarter, the other team (Harrison) scored a field goal. That night I went out with my family to my cousins house in Wallington. We watched a movie on Netflix

      This year I am taking Algebra 1 with Mr. Santangelo. Last year on move-up day he kind of made his class seem to me like it was going to be tough and I was not going to do good in his class. I know that its only been three weeks of school this year but I acuyally was wrong.  love the way he teaches. He goes at a good pace. My favorite subject in school is math, and that is why I don't mind his class at all.

      This year I expect to get straight A's and get on honor roll all four marking periods expect to learn how to do equations and more mathematical things. Whats so interesting about Algebra 1 is that I like to learn new things in math. To me math is interesting and i love it. Mr. Santangelo's grading policy is tests are 45%, Quizzes are 20%, projects are 15% and  homework and classwork is 10%.

 
`       In class we use technology on the computers. We use a website called "Kahoot.com". We different excersizes on it. Today we are learning square  roots and simplyifying equations.
