Friday #6 11-23-12

     In this short school week I did the following: finished The Wizard of Oz in history class, finished watching presentations in Spanish, and in chemistry, we went over various reaction types and how to write them out.
     I have learned about composition, decomposition, single and double replacement, and combustion reactions in chemistry class. We made model equations also. As far as history The Wizard of Oz has all the elements of the Great Depression hidden as different symbols in the movie. The Tin Man represents the industrial powers of the time, Scarecrow was the Farmers, Dorthy was Franklin D. Roosevelt, and so on. Spanish was boring, most of the kids in my class don't read with fluency and feeling so it makes listening to the other presentations truly dreadful. Some were good but most were awful.
     I plan to enjoy the weekend before school comes around.
