Something that I have learned today will we very very funny. ai hope that it will give you the slightest sense of humor. This week, I have learned to spell with words beginning with "com". Did you know that com is a root for together, jointly, altogether, combined and command? Well, I didn't know that until this week when we were given words to write with! Apparently there is trouble with our spelling these days and now we get spelling quizzes and tests. Not to bad, I you ask me! Here are some of the sentences and the words that we are learning today or should I say, this week.

Man do we feel abandoned when loved ones we know are gone. But, what if I told you that there was a way to still text them, like nothing happened? Well, in my blog this week, I will be telling you about this moment that a man named Roman once had before his unexpected death, but the dream his friend made come true.
In November of 2015, Eugenia Kuyda's friend, roman, passed away. Remembering something he said a long time ago, she started to create a digitalized version of Roman and adding bit by bit pieces of his personalities. First, she added his sense of humor, then his comforts and his tempers. This took two years. In two years his bot was texting people and comforting them. Eugenia used his tweets, facebook posts, and his texts. People claim they believe that they felt like they were texting the real Roman. But, they then remembered it was just his bot, not his real self. My opinion on this is pretty sad! People who pass would still comfort them. Also, that's how you know that they truly aren't gone. That they really are still there with you! You could still have your jokes like you use to have! Also, you could always realize they would still be there to comfort you. They would stay by your side, even when they don't seem to be there any more. Their jokes, their joy, their personalities, everything just seemed to be there, to be...them. Something that I have learned this week is the lesson 4.6, Simple, Progressive and Perfect Tenses. I learned how the three different form of the tenses chow and tell different meanings. For example, Adam is playing soccer is present progressive. Mateo has eaten a cupcake is present PERFECT tense. The passive voice of a perfect tense sentence is formed by inserting been; The cat has been groomed, is a purrfect example! Verbs also could indicate the tense or the time of action. Simple tense are present, future, or past tense. Progressive Tenses are made up of the auxiliary very BE and the present participle (-ing ending) of the main verb. A past progressive sentence is, Adam was playing soccer. An example of a future progressive is, Adam will be playing soccer. Perfect tenses consist of a form the auxiliary verb HAVE and the pas participle of the main verb. For example, a past perfect tense sentence is, Mateo had eaten a cupcake. A future perfect tense sentence is, Mateo will have eaten a cupcake by five o clock pm.
Another thing is that, we learned that bullying could get to,harsh and others take their own lives for that. But, there are some other people who could get through it with others to help them. In this video we saw, a boy was bullied for being gay and was harassed and abused. The boy soon found a lawsuit and sued his high school and middle school, for failing to protect them. Something this week that I have learned is none other than the most fabulous of all! Linking verbs!!! Linking verbs joins a subject with a subject complement. We all use these everyday! But, did you know that there are different TYPES of linking verbs? Well, I didn't till today! There are Linking and action, the two main types. they also can be substituted with normal verbs like is. These include am, is, are, was, he, will be, has been, had been...etc. Also including appear, became, feel, grow, look, remain, seem, smell, taste, stay turn. We also learned about troublesome verbs. Lie and lay, sit and set, rise and raise, let and leave, teach and learn, borrow and lend. People actually get confused with these words! Wow! Honest opinion, I did not se that coming! Also I learned that people honestly don't enjoy school, they believe that it hasn't change over the many hundreds of years! Man, ain't that a long time! Cars have evolved, phones has evolved, and even animals! But not people?! What's the logic in that?! Fact, Students don't actually use the things they use in school in the real world. So, I believe they are training us to be factory workers! I have learned about the new twelve vocabulary words for this week. They are form the book, Bridge to Terabithia. From the sounds of it, it looka and sounds like a good book already p! I want to read it this week so bad! Bye!
There has been an incident that occurred earlier today. There was a car accident with twelve dead in Texas. The bus was returning from a retreat and they collided with another bus on the freeway. Three where injured and twelve sadly don't make it. Worst of all, it was a white pickup that collided with the bus. No one really knows why or how this tragic accident came to be or how it happened. Senior adults were the victims in this accident. My thoughts on this sad and tragic moment, aren't the brightest. I mean, WHY would someone do this?! Who would have a problem with these people? They will be in my hearts and in my prayers. They also will be in my thoughts. But, I feel grateful that the Gov. Greg Abbott was able to pay his own respects for the tragic moments earlier today. "We are saddened by the loss of life and our hearts go out to all those affected," is what he tweeted. The church even cancelled all events tonight. This was a very sad moment. I feel very sorry for the families and the church for their losses. Twelve people passed and loss their lives. On my account, that shouldn't have happened! NONE of this should have happened! People don't deserve this problem. Fear is driving the town already! The worst part of this is that no one known how many people where in that bus. No one knows why this is going on.
This week, my blog will be consisting of ISIS, so sit tight! This week, Khalid Masood was accused and shot dead by local police. He was assumed to be a member of ISIS, hitting the U.K. with the most brutalist attack in twelve years! Fifty-two year-old Khalid Masood bought a rental car and using it, rammed it onto a near by side walked near or on Westminster Bridge. He killed and American man and a British woman, with nearly twenty nine injured. Masood then went and stabbed a local police officer to death, soon getting shot to death by the back up. There were five deaths, including Khalid. People believe that yes, it was ISIS, but others believe he use to be part of the extremist group. After the attack May vowed that Britain's freedoms and values would remain undiminished. In honor of this attack, the people of London light Big Ben to honor the victims of the terrorist attack. My opinion on this attack is very deep and sad. No one deserved to be treated like that! People say that this terrorist attack could NOT have been prevented! But, people believe there to be 2,000 - 5,000 MORE people like Masood. People are now on their top guard, social media, public, even in schools! Personal opinion on this is again, worried. I'm scarred to think of what can happen to us! This still scares me and it will scare me for as long as I will remember it!
On December 16 of 2016, president Rodrigo Duterte declares that they will share their oil with Chica. He said that he doesn't want to go to war with Chica; just about the maritime claims in the South China Sea. The problem with this, is that Mani,a claims that theChinese are invading the West Philippine Sea. Under the 1987 constitution, it says that the philippines shall have full control of their materials and under the full supervision on the state. But, in 2005, China, Vietnam and the Philippines had agreed to share the oil within each of their resources. The down part of this is that the consitution also states for them to protect the nations marine wealth within the waters of their seas. Especially the economic zone, and reeserve its use and enjoyment, exclusively to Filipino citizen. But back in 2008, this agreement had retired. The Supreme Court asked to rule onconstitutionality of the deal, which China did not accept. From my experience, it looked like China was actually STEALING the oil from the West seas of the Philippines! My thought on this are great, but it can't equal to the amount of feeling I have towards this problem! Just because China is big, it doesn't mean that they have to just go out and take oil from the state that they had a deal with to SHARE. I also learned that they would SHOOT any smaller ships that come near the Chinese Oil Ships (Exept if they are part of the China Oil ship). This is my blog for this week, hope it has expanded your minds about this world wide thing. Bye!
Current events. This week, I was assigned to see any current events going in in the USA. What I found to my surprise was that TRUMP, yes Trump, has launched war on unions! I searched deeper into this article and what I found was quite shocking. It states that labor unions spent tens of MILLIONS of dollars campaigning AGAINST Trump. They had given him a chance to deliver his pro-worker agenda. In the next twenty-four hours, they cease-fired their decision.Trump then started a blast against an Indiana union boss on Twitter, receiving surprising results from other labor leaders. He then announced his choice on who the secretary of the Department of Labor was. He had chosen the fast-food executive Andrew Puzder. A woman named RoseAnn DeMoro, and executive director of National Nurses United said "They want to do away with democracy. That's a problem." There was then a battle started about unions and Trump, mainly about labor. Right this moment, Trump is making that decision easily, this man seems to be assembling a pro-business Cabinet. He also could use this to his advantage over the other union leaders. People claim that this is the OPPOSITE of what Trump had promised the nation. He also stopped a power plant in Indianapolis from moving to Mexico, the so called state he was going to build a wall against! Trump then pronounced that only 1,100 jobs will remain in Indiana. I myself, think that this is just a child's play. Not trying to be offensive to anyone reading this but, they should seriously do another round! Anyway...this is my bling for today! See you next time, bye!
What we learned this week in ELA is about Adjective Phrases and Adjective Clauses, we also learned about Few and Little. What we learned about few and little is that we use few, fewer, fewest to compare concrete nouns, like iguanas, antelopes, and uniforms. We use little, less, least to compare abstract nouns, like heat, time, and wealth. With adjective phrases, we learned that a prepositional phrase is made up of a preposition, the object of the preposition, and any modifiers of the object. Clause is a group of words that has a subject and a predicate, with the parts of it being restrictive or non restrictive. What I liked about this lesson this week is how easy it is to get in your head. The beast part of this is that some parts could be challenging and also how these could get stuck to you on how it works
