Level 1 assignment
Subject: English |
One of my favorite subjects in school is English. Currently in English we are reading "The Crucible" by Arthur Miller. The book is about three girls who are convicted of witchcraft in the Puritan society. The Puritan society was the group of people who had founded Plymouth Rock and they only had certain beliefs of God and if you disobeyed you would be executed. Two of the girls that were at blame for witchcraft were the daughter and niece of the Reverend of the Town. This was very bad for the reverend seeing that he was the leader of his town and witchcraft was found in his household. If it got spread across the town the people were capable of taking him off of his job and rehiring somebody else to take over. In the book we are currently on Act 3 out of 4 and finishing up the book sometime next week. Another thing are going over in class is direct adjectives and delayed adjectives.

Activity: Show Choir
An Activity that I currently do is Show Choir. I am on the Electrify team which is the "Varsity" team. This is my second year of doing show choir and second year of being on the team. In show choir we get up and sing/dance and compete against a ton of other schools all around Massachusetts sometimes even other states! Last year our theme was Finding Neverland. Finding Neverland is a different way and perspective of telling the story of Peter Pan. When you have your theme chosen then it is time to choose your songs. You pick five different songs and that will be your setlist. Finally after you choose your setlist it is time for choreography. We have a special choreographer named Bubba and he comes at least twice a month to come and teach us new choreography and we usually finish one whole song in a night. That may not seem like a lot, but it is when you have to retain it all then perform it for people. This year our theme is "First Date." In our story line we are telling the story of how a typical first date would usually go. Our first costume is a royal blue color and flows out at the bottom. It is floral on the skirt part and has lace sparkle on the top. Our first competition that we will be going to is in Lowell Massachusetts in January. Last year we won grand champions against our rival school and this year we are hoping to take home some gold plaques instead of silver.
