Hello, I'm back again to do my third blog, looks like I'm the very last one to do the third blog. The class is talking about Running Day, a day I love. I love to run and Running Day is the perfect day to do it.  Sorry, I'm getting off topic. Anyways, everyone got a book called A Young People's History of the United States and took out their notebooks. In the table of contents, you have to write Andrew Jackson Hero & Villain. Here are the notes you're suppose to write on your note book. 

Who is Andrew Jackson: grew up poor-on a farm
                                         he killed out the Native Americans
                                          elected president 1828?
                                         1824 he lost to president J.Q Adams
                                         War Hero-

A.Y.P.H Pg 105
Hero:
Villain:

Right now students are looking through the book to see the farmers, Native American's Point of View of how they view Andrew Jackson as  hero or a villain and do a hero and villain part in I.C.E form. Which I can't do right now because I'm doing the blog. The class room isn't so quiet right now as I hear people whispering to another, some laughter, and the sound of flipping paper.  The class was actually a lot quieter before. Ms. Nakada is checking reading journals. Now the whole class just laugh and I don't know why, Ms. Nakada also moved someone because that person was being loud. People who were on tours yesterday are turning in The Book Thief summaries. There seems to be a bit of drama right now.  I don't now what it is about, oh well. A few minutes have past and they are now doing a debate on whatever Jackson is actually a hero or villain.  Sparky said that there is one minute so I have to go, bye. Wait, people are in a debate in who is a better  teacher Mr. Oakes or Mr. Perez.
Question of the day: Who is the better history teacher, Mr. Perez or Mr. Oakes? I have to go now, bye, for real this time.
