5 things I liked this year

I was told that in global Ed you would learn a great deal more than just any other history and English class. And I found that to be true and I have 5 significant things that I learned in Mr. Fielders were about the Rwanda Genocide , apostrophes, understanding “Squirrel Cop” , zoom into greater detail and researching South Africa.
I think that looking at other civilizations past is great it is so interesting that is why I liked learning about the Rwandan genocide. It was very sad hearing of the treachery and violence that was going on and barely anybody even helped during this monstrosity. I’ll give you a brief overview Belgium took Rwanda after World War 2 from the Germans they took the countries resources and basically put a race called the Tutsis into power. After Belgium left they gave everyone ID cards to show if they are Tutsi or Hutu which was an awful idea. So the Tutsis basically discriminated the Hutus and then when the Hutus won the office for government they started to discriminate the Tutsis. Then the government started to get younger kids to join a group called the Interahamwe. Which started to kill all the Tutsis and most of the world just sat and watched!
Apostrophes were something that I really didn’t think about I thought it was just to show ownership of something or shorten words but if you get it wrong then you could end up messing up a writing. And grammar isn’t my strongest thing I learned what to do if you were writing “the Jones’s own the black car”. I would probably just leave it Jones.
When we listened to the story the Squirrel Cop I thought it was hilarious. A man called the police saying that there was something moving around in the attic. The police men went to look inside he saw a squirrel that looked like it was as tall as Godzilla. Then the squirrel jumped down went downstairs went in the fire under the couch and it went up like someone poured gasoline on it. The point of the story was to zoom into greater detail in our writing and if you read it you would think your actually there.


I think that writing was not that important just tell a story of what happened. But understanding it by just telling isn't as interesting or exciting. that is why you have to really talk about what everything is happening and how and what is happening with detailed characteristics.



In the history of south africa has been bumpy and power has change a lot. it has been controlled by a dutch company and then the dutch came to colonize. then they found diamonds and gold and that got the interest of the british to invest in troops to take over the area. then the Boer war started and the British won. And then they told the mining companies they couldn't have slaves so the Afrikaners worked with the british to create apartheid something that stops the black natives from being intelligent enough. And that is basically what has happened in the beging years.

My computer would not let me post it so i went after school to do that I am very sorry.

Christmas Vaction

Christmas is one of the most wonderful times of the year unless you don't celebrate it then that is different. One of the best things is having like a three week break from school its one of the best things. Most of the break I had spent time with my family. Some of the time it would get annoying with every one around and I could not go any where.
So it was the second day after school got out and me and my brother decided to do some thing we do every year which is SNOW SOCCER! It is one of the best things about break. The ball is so hard to control and you can tackle people it might sound stupid talking about it but it is more fun playing it. We got a ton of people they were from my brothers team and also Stevenson varsity soccer players. So we played for about seven hours straight. When we got done we were soaking wet and super cold but once we changed into warm clothes and had hot chocolate it felt a lot better.
So on Christmas eve all of my family went to my grandpas house. We played ping pong pool and a lot of pool. So we always have an amazing home cooked meal and mostly based on what polish people eat like broche. Most people does not even know what that is do you. It is a creamy soup that you usually eat with mashed potatoes. Are dinner was very filling and after we ate home made Christmas cookies. So we then exchanged Christmas gifts I was pretty depressed on what I got which was a alarm clock that I had to put together my house which was really disappointing.

So on Christmas day my sisters woke me up at about six o'clock i was so tired i could not do it at all. So i went back to sleep and then my parents woke me up. I was very excited at what i got. The best thing i got was a new snow board I got a JP walker but i would have rather had a butron i do not think it really matters though it is still a good gift.

At new year we went up to my cabin in Argentine and we went snow boarding at mount Holly. It was really great i had so much fun with are family friends up there. After we got to the cabin after snow boarding we played ping pong all night an when it was dark out we got a bunch of lights and we played ice hockey down at the lake by are cabin. it was so fun and on New Years day we had a massive party it was the most fun i have ever had.
