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.
