    Ghost blog 


      This is my blog about the book Ghost and what I think about it. Ghost is about a seventh grader named Castle Cranshaw who loves to run and loves sunflower seeds. Castle loves to watch the people working out at the gym when he walks home from school. He says that basketball is his sport because running is something he never had to learn to do. Castle thinks he was born knowing how to run because one night he had to run away from his father who was drunk and trying to shoot his Mom and him. He said he never had to practice running. 


    Castle would love a chance to go on vacation and get away from everything. A relaxing place that he would love is the state of Florida. I think he would like Florida because it has beautiful beaches that he might like to run on. He could enjoy the warm weather and nice views.

    If I were to recommend a few movies to Harry Potter the first one would be Percy Jackson the Lightning Thief. This movie is about a boy named Perseus Jackson who finds out he is the demigod son of Poseidon and has to face many challenges such as fighting monsters or even confronting Hades himself. I think Harry Potter should see this movie because it is very similar to Harry’s first year at Hogwarts and how he had found out he was a wizard the way Percy found out he was a demigod.
    The second movie I think Harry should see is Fantastic Beasts Crimes of Grindelwald. This movie is about an evil Wizard called Grindelwald who plans to have pure-blooded wizards rule over all others but Albus Dumbledore sends his former student, Newt Scamander, who agrees to help thwart Grindelwald's plans. I think Harry should see this movie because it is a prequel to Harry Potter and help him get to know more about the wizarding world.
    The third movie I think Harry Potter should see is The Lord of the Rings. This movie is about a Hobbit who gains an ancient and powerful ring and goes on a quest to go to the dark lands to destroy this wicked ring. I think Harry should see this movie because it proves that anyone can be great like how Harry went from not even knowing of the wizarding world to becoming the greatest and most powerful wizard of all time.

    Dear Hem,


    I have some advice for you. I think you should avoid waiting in the same cheese station. You should follow Scurry, Sniff, and Haw, waiting in the same cheese station will not be helpful in the future. Sniff and Scurry are enjoying a bunch of cheese. In life, it's good to change and adapt. If I were you I would look around for more cheese and not waste time waiting for cheese station C to refill with cheese. Try to be like Haw, because he looked for the cheese to eat because he knew that if he did not find cheese soon he would die of hunger. He also got out of his comfort zone.
    Sometimes getting out of your comfort zone feels bad, but it's good. Sometimes fear can be bad; But on the other hand, fear could be good because it keeps you away from trouble and danger. Hem, you should be confident and not doubt yourself, you should have followed Haw into cheese station N because it has lots of cheese. You said to Haw that you would not like the cheese in cheese station N because you thought it would taste very different from what you like but, I think you were afraid of change, besides that you should never be picky with food especially when it depends on your health.I’ll give you a tip, if I were you I would inspect cheese station N every day to see if the supply of cheese is running low so you won’t get an ugly surprise. Just a reminder if the supply is running low, save a portion of cheese to eat for any emergency.




    Sincerely,

    Your friend

    There are many movies I think Harry Potter should watch. First, he should watch Harry Potter, of course, because it's all about himself. Who doesn’t like to be the star of the show?! Also, he might learn something about himself. Harry might be able to make better decisions in the future by learning from his past mistakes. Plus, it might be fun for Harry to see his friends on screen and compare the “muggle” life to wizardry life. Second, Harry should watch Endgame by Marvel Studios. It is similar to Harry’s experience because of the journey that Thanos had to go through to gain the gauntlet's full powers. In contrast to the journey Harry takes on to learn his own powers, Thanos is looking for infinity stones to power his gauntlet while Harry is learning to use the powers that lie within himself. Also, Harry uses a wand not a gauntlet, but the journey would be fun for Harry to watch! Next, Harry should watch Doctor Strange because Strange spent years under the Ancient One's tutelage, learning how to use his powers for himself and the world around him. Harry is also learning to use his powers, spells, and learning to fly on a broomstick. Moreover, Harry is under the tutelage of his professors at Hogwarts. Harry would definitely identify with Doctor Strange because they both use their powers for good. That sums up what Harry Potter should watch.

    This is an interview with Tom Brady, NFL Quarterback and founder of TB12 Method.

    SC: Good morning Mr. Brady, my name is Shane Chufo.
    TB: Good morning to you too.
    SC: I have read your book and it is very intriguing. By the way, can I call you Tom?
    TB: Yes, you can call me Tom, TB, or Brady.
    SC: Thank you; I am so grateful for the opportunity to interview you this fine morning.
    TB: Anything for a fan.
    SC: The first question I have is, how did it feel to duel it out with Drew Henson for the starting quarterback position at Michigan University?
    TB: We were both definitely competitive, but with hard work, determination, and love for the game, I came out on top.
    SC: On to the next question. When you were the 199th pick in the 6th round of the 2000 NFL Draft, did this disappoint you going into the NFL?
    TB: No, that drove me to work harder than I ever have. This paid off with me becoming the starting quarterback for the New England Patriots in my second season, then leading to a Super Bowl win later that year.
    SC: How many Super Bowls have you played in and how many have you won?
    TB: I played in nine Super Bowls winning six of those nine.
    SC: How was your relationship with Patriot’s head coach, Bill Belichick?
    TB: I felt we had mutual respect for each other, but like all coaches and players, there was considerable tension between us.
    SC: When did you start the TB12 program and why?
    TB: My trainer and I started this program in 2013 at our first TB12 Sports Therapy Center in Foxborough, Massachusetts. Alex (my trainer) and I started this program because there was not enough education about pliability treatment. Pliability treatment is the daily lengthening and softening of the muscles in our bodies through targeted deep-force muscle work
    SC: Do you have any advice for me and my readers?
    TB: Yes Shane, our goal as athletes isn’t just better training, it's better living.
    SC: Thank you again for giving me the opportunity to interview you.
    TB: Thank you for having me, you had terrific questions. Good luck with your academic and athletic career.

    Dear Justyce,

    I know you are struggling right now and I get it. Although I have never been through what you have, I’ve been struggling recently too so I know how hard it can be. Sometimes you want to give up, but I recommend you keep going, you never know what will be waiting for you around the corner. I think it would be best to stay away from Martel’s gang, and to keep steady in your relationship with SJ. It would be best to focus on things like school and your friends, while trying to stay out of the news. With Manny’s death comes many new feelings and I know they may be tough but you have the people around you to help you.
    As you are going through things like puberty and hormones, it's best to focus on the things that make you happy. Make sure to keep friendships and focus on the future. When dealing with loss it's okay to grieve and talk to other people about how you feel. Make sure to never dismiss your feelings because it matters and you dont want to hide your emotions because they will always come out one way or another, or even all at once. Just make sure that you can talk to someone, I recommend getting a therapist. I have one and she helps me thrive and helps my mental state. They will help you learn how to express your emotions and help you as you grieve.
    Your future is bright and you could go anywhere, all you have to do is try! I hope that school goes well for you and you continue to thrive in your environment with your friends and family! remember to keep God in your heart and pray every day!
    God Bless,

    Dear Journal,

    Everything aches. Shade is dead, and so are Nix, Gareth, and Ketha. I lashed out at the people whom I care for most, I led so many newbloods to their graves in Corros, and I even hurt my family. Memories of Shade's death keep appearing and repeating in my head with excruciating detail. I was standing right there before he died, yet I was unable to save my brother. Cameron and Cal were right. So many people have fallen, yet I do not mourn for any of them other than my brother. The only beneficial thing I've done was kill Queen Elara, but that is barely enough to soothe me from my misery. For now, I can only attempt to convince the country using Elara's corpse that her son, Maven, is a monster. Even now, I cannot stop, for I must keep going to at least save the people who still have the chance to be saved. Colonel Farley and I will be leading a two-pronged operation into the Choke. I will infiltrate the Little Legion by using people who can pass for fifteen to separate the Silver soldiers from the Reds. However, more lives may perish in the process. Back in Corros, forty-six of our allies died, but three hundred got rescued. One of the forty-six being my brother. My other brothers, Tramy and Bree, are coming with my group to sneak into the legion. I must keep them safe this time. I will not let myself lose another person I love.
    Sometimes, I wish to be back in the Stilts, back when times were simpler, back when Shade was still alive. Now, being in the Red Guard and plotting to take down Maven has affected all of us. Unfortunately, I know my life will never be the same again. Things cannot go back to the way they were. Now, I must build a better future for my family, the Reds, the newbloods, and the Silvers. I have to.

    Signing off,
    Mare

    Percy goes to the movies

    These are some movies I would recommend.I would recommend Thor .Thor is about a God who was kicked out from his house disrespecting father and loses his powers and Has to find a way how to get them back and back to his home , this is a reason why I would recommend this movie because Thor is the god of thunder and Thor also is away from his home and does know what to do .I would also recommend Loki ,Loki is about him getting in trouble for breaking the laws of time and has to find a way how to get out without letting them know , I recommend this because because he is the god of mischief. And Percy also is really Devious .I’d also recommend Any of the Percy Jackson movies. Percy Jackson is about a boy who finds out he’s a demigod and is brought to Mount Olympus And does not know what to do. I'd recommend this because it is about Percy . The fifth and final movie is Surfs Up. Surf’s Up is about a penguin that Wants to prove he is the best surfer best server so he hops on the ship to go to the championship for surfing and he ends up making lots of friends most importantly chicken Joe. Because Surfs Up is the Greatest movie of all and it is hilarious.Those are my four top movies I would recommend for Percy.

    The location Nick would go for a vacation is Brazil. I think Nick would go there because he loves soccer and Brazil is known for its talent of soccer players. Nick could go there to learn more soccer, visit Brazil landmarks, and eat the food. Nick could visit landmarks with his family. After he visits the landmarks he can eat Brazilian food. Brazil has some iconic food you can’t eat anywhere else. Nick would love to play soccer in Brazil. Nick would probably go and visit Brazil hall of famers of soccer and just have a great time with his family. If Nick would go on a vacation he would go to Brazil.

    Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
    J.K. Rowling

    The main character in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is Harry Potter. If I were able to recommend some movies for him to watch, then I would recommend Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Fantastic Beasts, and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. I think these movies would be good for him because they all contain magic, and magic interests him.
    The first movie I would recommend for him is Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. The reason I chose this movie is because I thought Harry could relate to the lion in Narnia, Aslan. They each are hated by their enemies, and the bad guys want them to be destroyed because they are jealous of their power. Harry and Aslan are a great threat to evil trying to conquer their world.
    The second movie I have chosen for Harry is Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them because it talks about the different monsters of Harry Potter’s universe, and it also incorporates magic in the story. I believe that Harry would be entertained by this movie because it provides information about different spells to repel the beasts that he finds later in his life.
    The last movie I would suggest to Harry is Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. I think he should watch this movie because he will be able to see the future, and he will know that he does not die. He will also know what the Order of the Phoenix is, and he will know that he still has friends which are Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.

    Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
    If Harry Potter were to meet some people in real life these are the people who i think Harry would like to meet. Harry Potter is a wizard, so I think he should meet Houdini. Houdini is a magician and is very famous for his magic. Houdini was also known for his escaping tricks. Houdini could teach how to do this and it could help Harry if he was captured and needed to escape. Harry should also meet a wizard Gandalf. Gandalf is from Lord of The Rings and is a very powerful wizard. Gandalf could teach some of his magic to Harry and try to make Harry more powerful so he can defeat his foes. Professor Snape is one of Harry’s teachers. Snape is a man who shows more kindness toward Slytherin than Gryffindor. This makes him an enemy of Harry’s and these are some people who could make him even more evil. Snape would probably like to meet Darth Vader. Darth Vader is an evil villain from the Star Wars movies. Darth Vader could show Snape how to be a true villain and teach him some of his ways. The next person I think Snape should meet is Loki. Loki is a supervillain from the Marvel Thor movies. Loki is a very powerful villain and is Thor's brother. Loki can teach Snape some of his magic and ways to be a villain. These are the characters Harry Potter and Professor Snape would meet.

    Hello normals, it is me Millard again and we just left miss peregrine’s loop witch I spend eighty four years of my peculiar life. Well technically I would call it my peculiar death seeing how I died in 1940. So today is September 9, 1940 as was yesterday but today is the last September 9, 1940 I will ever live in. Three boats were hauled out to sea by browyn, we split into three groups Jacob, Emma, Claire and me then Olive, Miss Peregrine, Brownyn, then last Enoch, Fiona, Hugh and the twins.

    Journal entry #2
    We just nearly sunk because of some storm that flipped our boats, but lucky we all made it. We last almost all of our stuff at sea. So when I was reading the book called Tales Of Peculiar Things Emma and Jacob run back and are shouting “Run.” I was confused for a second and then i heard gunshots then we ran for about half an hour when Enoch saw a head shaped rock and we jumped in. Then we were in a loop. We were walking when Jacob yelled “Hollowgast” and we d darted out of there while Emma, Jacob, and Enoch killed the hollow. I saw this tower in the distance and told the others so we all went to the tower. When there we were greeted by this talking dog named Addison. Then while we were eating Addison was talking about his past. Then we showed him miss peregrine and told him about her condition. Then told us that his ymbryne was not there she was helping others ymbrynes then I fell asleep and missed out on the rest.

    Journal entry #3

    Fourth Stall
    This prompt is about each character and the awards that they would get if they received an award. The first character is Mac, also known as Christian to others. Mac is the wisest character in the book because of his royalty and leadership. He showed the gamblers that he was not scared to face them. Mac showed his friends how to be responsible. When his friends were stuck in the gambles he figured out a way to get them out, with a fight. The next character is Vince, also known as Christians right hand man. He deserves the reward the nimblest. Vince has always had a bright mindset in the book Mac says “Even in hard times you are in a good mood” (Rylander 26). Vince has gone through a lot with no dad and mom struggles with jobs. Even for those reasons he is always on the bright side when Mac is in tough situations. One other big character in the book is that the janitor would get the most valuable award. This award suits him because of his usefulness to Mac. Mac's business is in the fourth stall that has no toilet but the only way to get in the bathroom is with the key. The janitor helps him with any room he needs to get to in the school. These characters deserve awards because they helped Mac who was the hero in the book.

    Entree one: Today started like any other “normal” day. First we were attacked by a giant of a

    beast was after the ring ( some of you may not know what the ring is so allow me to tell you.

    The ring was forged by Elven-smiths and Sauron. Sauron is the Dark Lord. The ring is pure

    evil.) so we escaped with our heads still attached. Now we are traveling to a place called hotel

    called the prancing pony ( I for one blame Sam). We are now in Bree-land ruled by Bree.almost

    every thing is has Bree in its name Bree-hill, Men of Bree, and Bree-folk.we got the at dark. The

    hotel is “nice” enough as every one says but in my honest opinion is I’d rugged and dirty.

    When we first got there the man at the gate greeted us.He seemed rather odd though he made

    me uneasy. The man who owned the hotel was a strange man, his man is Mr. Butterbur. In the

    morning I, Sam, and Pippin went to the parlor. We negotiated with a hobbit named Strider. I

    Life Behind the Wall Essay
    Erich is the main character in the first part of Life Behind the Wall who I would give the award the “Bravest” because he helped drop American candies to help his fellow Berliners to at least make their lives better despite almost getting arrested for it. The text states that,“Did the Soviets really believe the American was a spy, or were they just sore at him for making such a big deal of the gumdrop, making them look bad?” meaning they came for him and his family because they helped other people. Sabine is the second main character of Life Behind the Wall which would give the award “Faithful” because she trusted in God the whole time to help her. The text states,“Now, Jesus! She prayed silently. Please , now! Make my legs strong! This means that she still had faith in Jesus, despite having polio that has affected her everyday life. Liesl is the third main character of Life Behind the Wall which I would give the award as the “Curiosity” award because she tries to learn her family's history even though her mother forbids it. The text says,“ But you don't tell me anything. I just want to know, sometimes.”

For example, the one person your dad should definitely not have trusted is the guy at the boat shop. He continued saying I’ll have it ready by tomorrow but never had it done.

    In the book Gernade there is lots of war going on and most of the war includes middle school students and one of those students is called Hideki Kaneshiro. If I were to recommend three movies to him the fist movie would be John wick because John wick has lots of action and slick techniques in fighting skill. I believe after Hideki watches John Wick he will become a better soldier and be ready for war. The second movie i would recommend to him would be American sniper because he can take out lots of soldiers with low risk of getting caught because he is such far distance. I also believe if he watches American Sniper he would learn lots of skills and be a good sniper. The third movie I would recommend to Hideki would be the Hunger Games because he will learn how to survive with the materials he has if he ever gets in a bad situation. Hunger Games has many surviving tactics and fighting skills that Hideki could learn in war. All of these Movies can be very helpful for Hideki and help him and his army win many wars against whoever they are at war with. After Hideki masters all of the movie techniques he will surly become a leader of his very own army and can pass his knowledge down from generation to generation and make an undefeated army and many greatly skilled soldiers. This is why I believe the three movies I listed as recommendations for Hideki would greatly help him and his army in many different wars and scenarios.

    There are many awards in this world. There are also many characters in Harry Potter. Our first character is Harry Potter! This boy is the one who is destined to kill Voldemort. I think he deserves the protagonist award. This award means that the person who earns it is the center of his or her story.


        The next character on the stage is Dumbledore. Dumbledore is the Headmaster of Hogwarts. I know what award fits him, the wisdom award. This award is granted to only those who have much wisdom and power. I think he will like his award. 


        This will be a double round with two people. These characters are Ron and Hermione. Ron is the second youngest in the Weasleys and Hermione is a bookworm, but they are both Harry's Friends. These two deserve the friends award. This award means you are friends to many people.


        The next Character is Snape. Snape is a teacher at Hogwarts that teaches potions. He is secretly a double agent. He gets the sneaky award. This means you can hide your tracks and do things undetected. 


        The Final character is Voldemort. Voldemort is the main villain of the series who wants to kill all humans and let wizards reign. I think Voldemort gets the antagonist. This means he is the main villain of the series. That concludes the award show.

    Prompt 15

    What Do Names Mean?
    First, Harry means to persistently harass someone. However, this is not like Harry at all because he is very nice and kind, but he is mischievous. He constantly sneaks out of Gryffindor Tower and loses points for Gryffindor, but he will end up winning a quidditch game and regaining the points he loses. It is a never-ending cycle with Harry. He gets into trouble, but he always finds a way out. Harry’s last name “Potter” means a person who makes bowls and plates. Even though Harry does not make bowls he does create things with spells using his magic and powers. For example, he makes potions during his potions class. So, Harry takes after his name’s meaning because he is creative like a potter.
    Second, Harry’s friend Ron's name means advice or decision. These meanings fit Ron’s personality more than Harry’s name fits Harry’s personality, but sometimes some of Ron’s decisions are not right. For example, when he decides to run out to Hagrid’s hut to watch his illegal dragon hatch. Ron and Harry both got in trouble as a result of that decision. And for Ron’s last name Weasley, according to Webster’s Dictionary, it means resembling or suggestive of a weasel. I have never known Ron to be a weasel. In fact, he is opposite of that. According to the wizarding world, however, Ronald Bilius Weasley means ‘having the god’s power’. We know only God has power to make miracles happen. That is why in Harry Potter wizards need spells and wands to use their “powers”.
