"I Have a Dream" by: Martin Luther King Jr.

I feel that what Martin Luther King Jr. said in "I Have a Dream" is true. People should get along, and not hate because of the color of skin. I believe that people should not be judged on their race, but by their character and personality. But, no matter how hard we try, some people just don't agree. I agree with him when he says that people are created equal.

The Grimke Sisters

The Grimke sisters are very couragious. They are very couragious because even though woman couldn't speak to the public, the Grimke sisters spoke out anyway. Also, the Grimke sisters are very independent. They are independent because even though the abolitionest movement leaders asked them not to speak out about woman's rights, they still did. Finally, the Grimke sisters are very strong woman, because they wouldn't give up even though people continued to make fun of them, and threw stuff at them. In conclusion, that is how the Grimke sisters are couragious, independent, and stroong people.

Class Discussion

Mr. Flores: I think that Mr. Flores is a nice teacher.I think he is nice because he didn't get mad at his class for making paper airplanes. Alos, he made a joke put of the airplanes, and let the students who made them get them back secretly.

Cricket: I think Cricket is an annoying little know-it-all. If I knew her, I would never talk to her.

Julio: I think that Julio is a good student. He likes to have fun, but he is also serious when it comes to something important.

Zoe: I think that Zoe is also a godo student. I think that she is a nice person too.

Lucas: I think that Lucas is someone who likes to do pranks, and act up when the teacher has their back turned. He got lucky when his teacher, Mr. Flores, didn't get him in trouble for making paper airplanes.

Joyce: I think that Joyce is a girly-girl. She wanted to plant flowers, which might be a good idea, but she wanted to plant them all around the school.

Jennifer: Jennifer is a very popular girl, but if I knew her, I wouldn't talk to her. This is because I think she's to stuck up.

Skye Skylark and the Case of the Stolen Jewlry

Hi, my name is Skye Skylark. I am tweleve years old, and I love to solve mysteries. In fact,I love them so much that I made a club with all my friends. The only problem is that every mystery that we want to solve, our parents tell us no because we are too much trouble. That is why when the case of the missing jewlry was open for investegation, we took the job. Maybye I should tell you from the begining. It was about one year ago on my eleventh birthday, when my parents decided to take me to the jewlry store to buy a necklace.

"Are we there yet?", my little brother Micheal asked. Micheal is very impatient, and he gets car sick a lot. "Shut up Mike.", I said. "We have only been in the car for five minutes and you are all ready crying over stuff. "Skye and Micheal Skylark!", my mother cried. "Must you kids argue over everything?" Well, I thought, At least I am not the pain in the neck here. Micheal is. After about ten more minutes in the car my father finally anounced," Here we are! The best jewlry store on town." I lookes up at the huge store. It was about two stores high, and painted a nice blue color. It was peeling from oldness, but that didn't stop the amount of customers the old store attracted.

It took us ten minutes to find a parking space, and about five more minutes to get out of the crowded space of the parking lot. Once in the store, I was free to wander where ever I wishedm to look for some new jewlry. Right when I thought I had found what I wanted, out of the corner of my eye, I saw this beutiful golden necklace sparkling in the light. Right then, a man dressed in all black was standing next to me. Before I knew it, he was grabbing hold of the necklace and stuffing it in a little leather bag.

Then, he was running. He ran out the door and into the street. But he didn't have long to wait until the police came. Ten minutes after the police came, the news cameras came. I really wanted to tell the news reporter about what I saw, but my parents sent Mike to come and get me. " Come on Skye. Mom and dad are waiting in the car, let's go!" I walked out the store, but Mike, always in a hurry to get anywere, ran like the ground was on fire. By the time I got in the car, I was really mad that I didn't get a new necklace. " We're sorry Skye," my dad said," We'll come back later and get you what you want." Well, I thought, That wasn't possible because the only thing I wanted was that beutiful golden necklace. " How about this," My mom said. " You can invite your little group of friend over and you can have a sleepover." That sounded fun, so right when we got home, I phoned up all my friends.

Two hours later, everyone I had invited was over, and I decided to tell them what had happend that day. "Wow", Julia said."No wonder you're so bumbed out." "Yah", Sarah agreed. Then my best friend, Ammy, said," Do you think that the case is open for decective investegation?" " That is exactly what I was thinking!" I replied. "But there is only one problem", said Julia. " Our parents won't let us do the case." " Julia, think, if they don't know, then they can't tell us no!", Sarah said. Of course! That is what we would do! We just won't tell our parents. Why didn't I think of that?, I thought, getting excited.


The next day, we all got to go back to the jewlry store. My friends and I went back to the seen of the crime. No finger prints, and surprisingly, no cameras. "Wow,no wonder he wasn't caught already", I said. "Yah", said Sarah. " No cameras or anything!"
