Core classes

In ELAR we were writing a lot during 6th grade, I will show you three of the main things we wrote throughout the year:

“Rules” Rule!

Have you ever thought or wondered why we have rules, because I most definitely have. But just in general we have rules outside of our homes, and even inside. For example we have to go on green traffic lights, or stop on a red ones. These are some simple rules that sometimes get broken, yet if we do everything correctly nothing should go wrong. Sometimes if us kids want to do something dangerous or not good, our parents will tell us to stop. Now if this starts to happen every day, your parents might make rules. They make rules to make sure you stay safe, and that no one gets hurt. Otherwise things could get out of hand, or uncontrollable. This is why rules are VERY important. People, mostly kids, would love to eat whatever they want. Things like candy, ice cream, fast food, and a lot of other unhealthy things. This would have people get a bunch of stomach aches, and get really sick. Parents would tell kids to eat more healthy foods like salads, or nutrient bars. These foods are more healthy; which can increase athleticness, sleepiness (when needed), and decrease moodiness, or attitude. Another example would be that you don’t want to go to bed, if this happens often like every night, your parents could set you a bedtime. Making sure you have a healthy sleep, which is very important by the way. If you don’t get enough sleep you could start to fall asleep during class, or your brain wouldn’t function very well like it used to. This could affect your sleeping, studying, and or learning. If you are to stay up late it shouldn’t be every day, as this could affect your health. (Weekends are different) kids love video games, or playing on their phone: right? Well it's not very healthy to sit around and watch stuff on your phone, or play video games on a chair all day. This is why parents could tell you to take a break. This could help a lot as the body could become more active over time. You never know, maybe they’ll like it outside instead of the virtual world. Now let's talk about what would happen if there were no rules, or everyone just decides to not listen to them. First of all, if people didn’t have a rule to go and stop at lights, there would be a lot of accidents, or traffic jams making people get hurt, or be late. Secondly people could get out of control, stealing from stores, or maybe even worse. And lastly, kids would absolutely go crazy on junk food. So maybe rules are a good thing, I mean after all they do help us in every way possible: Haven’t they?

Monster Story

One time, in 1943, a boy and older sister left their house to go out of town. They decided to live in an apartment, as they felt really lonely, their mom and dad died in a car crash, leaving only the brother and sister left. The brother being Christian, and the sister Eva. Once arriving at a random hotel, mid travel they thought they should stay there, as they needed some other place of shelter and food. The apartment looked like it hadn’t been used in years, but they thought nothing of it. Once they entered the apartment they saw that only four other people were inside. “That’s strange”, says Christian. Going up to the checker Christian sees another young boy like him. Checker:“Would you like to stay the night?” my sister looked down at me, as if she wanted to know if I wanted to stay. Eva:”Yes please.” The checker had a big grin on his face. Checker:”Splendid!” Once given the key to our room we found out that the people (The young boy, his dad, and mom) we saw were the owners of this place. They have been open for years, but randomly people stopped coming out of town this far, and stopped staying the night. (Elevator bell rings)Eva:”This is our floor.” (We both walk out, going towards our room)Christian:”Aren’t we lucky that they were still in business, otherwise I don’t know where we would have gone.” Eva:“Yeah, me neither”unlocking the door. time: 2:36 (Christian walks up from his bed going to the restroom) Christian:“Man these beds are comfortable” Suddenly he hears a noise, and looks back towards the door of the restroom; seeing a tall red figure quickly vanish out of nowhere. Horrified Christian sprints back to his bed, not even worrying about turning off the restroom light, and shutting his eyes. The next morning the whole closet was a mess, Eva:“Christian I told you not to stay up all night! Why is this closet filthy!!” Christian:“It wasn’t me,I swear!” Forgetting about it we both walk out of the door and go back to the elevator door. Once pressing the button multiple times the elevator would never reach our floor, as if something or someone was stopping it. Eva:“Wow, amazing, now we have to take the stairs, could this day get any worse.” she groans. Christian and Eva start walking down the long hall, thinking about what happened last night Christian was terrified. Meanwhile Eva was paying no attention to anything, glued to her phone. They both start walking down the stairs, when suddenly halfway down they hear a faint roar, as if something big was far away. Eva:“ahh!!” Christian: “Relax it’s probably just a bear of some sort.”, Eva:”Yeah yeah” and they were never heard about again, they just disappeared from the world as if they never existed.

Hatchet Essay

In the book Hatchet by Gary Paulsen there is a protagonist named Brian. Brain's life went totally bizarre one day, and that's the time he crashed inside of a plane. After and during Brian crashed he had a lot of struggles, and I will be telling you my struggles from his.

In the book Brian had quite the struggles but the main thing that I want to focus on is when he survived after all the things that got in his way. Brian himself went through a lot of stuff that I could never go through. Some of those things are somehow flying a plane, surviving through a tornado, a moose, and starvation. If I was ever in this situation I could never fly a plane, go through starvation, survive a tornado with no shelter, or survive a moose.

Even though most of the things brian did I could never do, there are some things that I can do like lighting a fire with only trees and a flammable source. It is pretty tricky but after a lot of tries I figured it out. In the end Brian found a way out and survived. Even though he almost starved and almost got hit by a moose and a tornado in the end he just laughed and said “Is that the best you got?” Instead of saying “is that the best you got” I am just grateful for everything that I have.
