I Never Saw Another Butterfly

The poem I chose for my butterfly project was "Sickness" by Franca Bass. This poem tells about a sudden sickness a boy has gotten. The way the sickness goes away is by his mother reading him his favorite story. I believe this poem tells about how the "sickness" was actually the moving of Jews out of their houses and killing them and the "story" was about how the Germans covered it all up. This poem shows there is more than meets the eye if you read a poem and know context.

Life Is Beautiful Movie Review

 Even though I only saw half of the movie due to me not being there the first day we were watching it, I will say that even though I saw the last 45 minutes it was very touching. A man sacrifices his life to save his son from being killed. He sacrificed everything so his son wouldn't be killed in the death camp. Overall, this story tells about self-sacrifice and I would highly recommend it to anyone that is learning about the Holocaust.

My Thoughts On Fourth Quater

 What I am most excited about for fourth quater is my middle school years to finally be done. The thing I will do to make this the best part of my year is by getting everything done. I'm ready to move onto high school I feel. As you can guess, I ain't really scared of highschool. I am good academically and socially so I have nothing to be scared of really. Overall, I just want this month and a half to get done with.
