Autobiography
(11-14)

I then was 11 years-old and I was learning how to play the piano with a lady from my church since the age of eight years old. And it was the three of us my brother Zakir my and my cousin Devin every time that we would complete a lesson we would get freshly baked cookies or a prize. I thought that by having a whole week to practice I would be guaranteed to get every prize or present she gave to me.
And every time that my auntie would ask why I am not playing the piano I would look the other way as if she was not talking to me. And still at this moment I still have the books required to complete each and every course my auntie had then told me that they were just visiting the church for a few years and it was time that they had gone back to live with their family which now we were apart of. She then told the three of us that even when she was gone to keep practicing and playing the piano and which was a way of her thanking us for everything.
She then had decided to invite us to come and live with her which by the way her name was Sister Benson and her husband name was Brother Benson and it had been are summer vacation. As I then was 12 years-old I had went to Utah with the Benson’s and we were introduced and had met all of her family members which they all were in the city of Utah which was Salt Lake City. It had took us 2 hours to get there and another 2 hours to get back and as looking outside of the window I could see that we were very high above the ground it look as though we were out of space.
It had only been my first day there and already I visited many places such as the mountains which was a great view and there had been lizards leaping and crawling every where. And we also visit and played in an indoor water park where their tons of children and where my cousin had almost drowned lucky for me I had seen I life guard and got some help. It had been a week and already it was time to go home. As we were leaving while getting on the airplane she had said that there was something she had wanted to give the three of us.
She top and reached into her purse and gave each of us a crystal rock which you throw it at the ground and crystals come out. I then was looking out of the window as if it was my last glance. I arrived back to Chicago my brother and me got settled and moved back with my mom who was happy to see the both of us. I then had transferred from the school that I had been going to for four years and that school was called Luke O’Toole where mostly all of my friends had attended.
I then had moved to 79th and Cole on the east side where I had went to a school called Adam Clayton Powell I had went their for my six grade year. I was 13 years-old and it was the middle of the school year which had meant that I missed the ISAT test. And as the school year let out it had been a couple of days before I had to go to summer school. I had made many friends and they all were there with me.
As me being a bad kid I disrupted many teachers and students and it was my last strike and right before you new it I was kicked out of summer school. And I had to repeat the six grade, my mom had been very disappointed at me so by my mom being her self she was ready to move. As I packed up all of my belongings I had been worrying where we would moved to. I then saw that when we arrived to are new home that it was on 942 W. Marquette.

“Anthony Benezet”

Anthony Bebezet was born on January 31, 1713 in St. Quentin, France. Anthony’s families were Huguenots. Huguenots were French Protestants who suffered persecution.
When Anthony Benezet was two years old, Anthony received an education that was suitable for a prosperous family. When Anthony Benezet was seventeen years old, he immigrated to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In Pennsylvania, Anthony joined the Quakers. Because his attempt to become a trader failed, Anthony Benezet decided to become a school teacher.
Later Anthony Benezet taught at the Friend’s English School, which is now called the William Penn Charter in Philadelphia. Here Benezet was recognized for being a good teacher. He was also known for his dislike for severe discipline.
In the 1750's Benezet taught slave children after he got off work. He taught these children from his home. In 1754, he left the Friends’ English School to start a school for girls. This school was one of the first public girls’ schools in America. He later started the Negro School in Philadelphia. Benezet taught until he got ill.
What I admired most about Anthony Benezet was his zeal to teach African American Children. I believed that he reached out to black children more than the average person would. He made sure that he educated slave children as well. I commend his act of bravery and I admire his willingness to help children become more knowledgeable.
The thing that I disliked the most about Anthony Benezet was the fact that he opened a school for girls. It always seems that girls always get more benefits than boys. You would think that because Anthony was a man he would help boys. I wish that he would have reached out to help young boys too. His contribution may have made boys more motivated to learn today. I believe that boys require extra support and I believe that boys need positive role models to stand up and assist us in our day to day lives.

The Effect of Soil Type on Earthworm
Population
Earthworms are invertebrates, which mean they don’t have backbones. Their soft bodies can be all sorts of colors: such as brown, pink, and red. Earthworms have a brain, five hearts, and parts inside their bodies, which help them to breathe. The smallest earthworms are about 1 centimeter long and the largest can be 4 meters long. One of the largest earthworms is the Giant Gippsland Earthworm, which is found in one part of Australia.
Earthworm’s hermaphrodite means that each earthworm has male parts that produce sperm and female parts that produce eggs. When two earthworms mate, they lie together, and cover themselves in sticky mucus, and pass sperm into each others body.
Earthworms dig large burrows which let water and air into the soil. It helps stop the erosion and lets the water and air gets down to the roots of plants. The burrows also help plant roots to move easily through the soil and into new spaces.
One important thing that an earthworm does is it plows the soil by tunneling through it. The secret to earthworm travel lies in two things you can’t see by just looking. Their complex system of muscles enables them to not only wiggle like crazy but also to very quickly alternate between being stubby and thick, and long slender, which usually are held inside their bodies. When the worms want to stay in their burrows, they jab their setae into the surrounding dirt, which anchors them in place. Top soil is the upper, outer most layer of soil. Its top is usually 2 to 8 inches. It has the highest concentration of organic matter.
Miracle-Grow is a brand of plant food and soil product. It is commonly used in gardens and household plants and sold by major retailers. The original Miracle- Grow was developed by Horace Hagedorn and Otto Stern in the late 1940’s. Regular soil is packed with all kinds of microbes, which is one of the most important elements that there are to growing healthy plants and vegetables. Dirt contains all kinds of minerals and nutrients. Regular soils are composed of earth minerals combined with decayed or decaying organic material such as leaves, dead plants or critters.

Autobiography
I then became 6 years old at my brothers; Zakir, Alvin, Auran, and my other brother which has the same name Alvin, and of course my sister Ohkeniya. And my mom had all moved to where I am now Chicago. As we all packed are belonging up to be dismiss from Gary Indian.
As I then entered my new home I was interested of the way it was formatted the outside was red covered with bricks and the inside had two floors and a attic. The next day was my birthday and I was 7 years old and for a surprise birthday party I went to odyssey world and it was the best time in my life. And I had advanced to the 1st grade learning different aspects.
As the years went by slowly I then was 8 years old and for that time since it was my birthday I got to choose where I had wanted to go. I then decided that not being in Gary Indiana for a long time that maybe I should go back so then as my mom called her sister I was packing my clothes.
I then looked out of the window to see if that my auntie and so I kiss everyone that pass me as I then pushed myself into the car. It was a 3 hours ride so I tooked all of the snacks I could. As we made it to our destination I then ran outside to the door unloading my baggage I then was 9 years old looking back on my brothers and sister and how my mom must miss me. As I departed form leaving my uncle, grandma, and my auntie I had went back home. I then entered the house not nobody knowing when I would come back. I then saw that no one was home but my mom sitting crying alone.
I then rushed up to her as if a dog was chasing after me and had said mommy what’s wrong she wouldn’t tell me. And a few moments later right before I could hug her a guy walked up to me and said who would I like to live with. And so I had said my auntie which had lived on I 6616S Wallcott and as he took me there he had told her what the issue was and as for me I was confused. I then was 10 years old not seeing none of my brother’s or my sister including my mom. My auntie then had bought me up to this church called “The Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saint’s. and I was a member of church every since the age of 8 years old and I am still not knowing where my mom my brother’s, and my sister was that’s just another story to tell.

Best Picnic I’ve ever
Been on

I would like to start off my introduction by saying that there are many picnic’s I have been to and there are many places that I have been that seemed like a picnic but since I don’t have much time I would like to start with one picnic.
The time when I went on my best picnic I’ve ever been on was when I was at Washington Park. It was so fun being there at Washington Park I also went to the swimming pool where there’s a water slide. There were so many people there at the pool that I made a couple of friends.
The time when I was there was when I was in between the ages of 11and12. And it was the year of 2005/2006 and my mother had always taken me places like to the zoo and more but this time she had taken us to the park.
The people that were all their was me my 5 brothers my sister my mother and her friend who had a snake and he had brought it with him. And while we were at Washington Park we also went into the swimming pool which was a lot of people their.
In conclusion I show how and why my best picnic was my best picnic and I give three paragraphs showing how.

I believe that boys require extra support and I believe that boys need positive role models to stand up and assist us in our day to day lives.

THE INCREDIBLE HULK
The hulk always protects civilians and never hinders people. In the original hulk movie, the hulk risked his life to save a girl by the name of Mary Hopkins from a giant furiously mutant dogs which had vines stretching outside there neck. And it wasn’t just any ordinary dogs but it was three headed dogs which all had sharp teeth that were one of a kind. He was almost going to be dead by the ferociously dogs but he soon snapped one of their necks off and as his snapped one of there necks off he did it to the next dog. And they all died one by one slowly as they all died the lady thank him with a grimace expression. He risked his life to save one person out of the tempestuous wind now that’s a hero.
The incredible hulk is really a hero. When villains come to destroy the soundless unharmed city, the hulk comes and defeat them each and every time “BOOM BANG!’ you hear that that’s the sound the hulk makes killing them off. The reason why they (they as in people of the creations and publishers of the hulk) call him the incredible hulk is because of the way that he is made to be a scientist making corrections with his experiments and try it on himself which then makes him then turn big, strong, and perhaps maybe green. The scientist then tries to find a way to make a cure for the experiment to get rid of the hulk form but as he is trying to find a cure it is growing a stronger custom to his body.
I like the incredible hulk because he’s like a god in many ways. And one of those many ways is that he cannot get effected (by in body use of his normal reactions to his positive and negative side) like when he gets attacked and he gets shot he begins to turn bigger in size, stronger and angrier. He is also like a god because he can pick up almost anything in the world because he is incredible big and tall. And does not hurt people for entirely no reason just because he feels that he is extremely huge and can’t be stop.
As a child from the ages of 4 to 12 years-old I was told to eat all of my vegetables before going outside, watching television, and playing video games. The kind of vegetables I had to eat during these Pacific Time periods were green beans, cabbage, peas, spinach, and greens. Which was a great disruption for me to follow by as far eating them and looking at them (as in them=vegetables). I was so over walling as to having to eat something that I did not want to eat just for the simple fact of me having to eat vegetables and when I did not follow by these requirements I had then realized that I had gotten my freedom taken away from me.
I later realized that eating vegetables aren’t so bad by them after all especially after providing healthy snacks and nutritionist, and that lots of super hero’s look like and that eat vegetables to get strong. And the kind of super heroes that look green like the type of vegetables I had to eat are the following: green lantern, Popeye, the hulk. And that is where I get off dealing with the having not I been eating my vegetables I will not be so healthy then I am right know and not listening to my mom I would still be able to not go anywhere so I thank my favorite color of being green (HULK).
The most evaluating thing that I like in a super hero (which is a boy/men not a women no offense to all the lady’s) is that he has to be big and tough because if you are trying to be rescued then you wouldn’t want a puny little men with great looks to help you but you want some one strong huge big. The hulk is one of my favorite super heroes because he is the one that I know of (except for the big huge guy off of fantastic which is called thing a big ugly thing). Being big is great attribute for the hulk because he cannot be stopped by anything.
The hulk is the toughest super hero ever when he turns big and green, everyone else looks like ants compared to his big organic size. With the hulk’s size he could (he can) probably do what ever he wants and when I was little the hulk reminded me of my dad because he was big and tough. Him being tough he can make himself very intimidating super hero he always has to be ready and prepared for all the challenges he goes threw. And if he fail to accomplish that task, he always tries again and again that’s why he is a tough super hero.
The hulk is a very powerful superhero that is unstoppable I would say that the only person that can beat him or will try their best to beat him is spider man because he can get around people easily and defeat them as easy as pie. But other than that he cannot be stop by anything on the planet (except for spider man).He can destroy any and every thing that attacks him or comes at him his strength is unpredictable when he is really mad no body knows what he’s going to do next. When he gets angry he starts destroying everything that comes near him.
The hulk also gives out a calling that says things like smash thrash and arghhhhhh! Hulk crush! That’s what I call it and he grows fiercely, he has black hair, his face is green and he has blue pants. And he can beat strong and big villains and he doesn’t ever smile (unless he is joyful and happy or even proud of something. The hulk is in all types of comic books, cartoons, video games, and movies he can lift almost anything a building, a house, a vehicle, and maybe even a build board. And people sell all types of the incredible hulk merchandise like action figures t-shirts etc.
He’s invincible and so is his heart he is caring for others no matter what the consequences’ are and if you ever need someone for help or assistance he will always flash slash and come like a dash. I hope no one threatens the hulk because he we have no mercy on them he has a good but a very bad temper if you mess with anyone he will breath through you. If you endanger a life, he will endanger yours because he will moss like some floss. He will beat you until you gasp for air thrusting begging impatiently but he’s not always violent, only when you bother people. If you think your hits are tough, you haven’t seen anything yet. The hulks hits are so hard breaking you down critically into a building. He love people, but most people, mostly the army want to use him as a weapon. The hulk is a person just like anyone else, so it means that he has feelings as well us humans which he is as well. He’s an enormous man with great strength and power that people will love to have especially for self defense reasons, but unfortunately he’s just a super hero that people love to read and watch on the movie screens.
So if you see something big and of course its green on the street, it might be the hulk or you may just be illuminating or may be your mind might be playing tricks on you. The hulks muscles are as big as army tanks that are undisputable and untamed. He is very mean when it comes to fighting enemies and saving people. If you think the hulk is not the best super hero, you are so very wrong. If such a great monster existed, the world would be in a complete disaster in a matter of minutes. The hulk I would say is the best of all super heroes’. He is the burliest person in the world, but he still takes up for the weakness he has major love for everyone, except for the people who hurt other people. He has the power to do what he feel that is right, but people want to or expect him to do what’s wrong. The hulk tries his hardest to control his anger now don’t you think the hulk is the greatest super hero.
I also like the INCREDIBLE HULK because he is very muscular tall and strong, and has reasonable sources like the ability to leap and run in like a dash. HE is solid like a huge boulder and as strong as a tanks armor used by an army. He’s as green as a leaf and as tall as the sears tower.

Autobiography (0-5)

“Ahhhh!’’ Ahhhhhhh!” maim were going to have to ask for you to calm down and have a seat while we assist you with a doctor as the nurse called out. As the nurse yelled out to my which who was just entering the building. At that time my mom was waiting impatiently for a doctor to call out to her and her mother had insisted that she would seat down and wait like everyone else patiently.
The doctor came rushing through the waiting room area where my mother and grandma stood as he called out (my mom Octavia Guyton). She trembled up to her feet as she rose up to her feet and showed a wide grimaced face. Holy cow! as the doctor yelled out your in labor (which was by the name of Erik Thompson)were going to have to get you to a room quick. He rushed into the room after closing the doors “Ohhhhh!’’ “Ohhhhhhh!” she cried out with deep disappointment trying to push out while taking deep breaths, as the doctor yelled out relax.
As I burst out of the large circular round stomach a new life was born (6 pounds/8 ounces)on the date of February 16, 1994 I could almost tell almost fell that someone special was born and that a new life was punctured. As I watched the bright revealing light gleam upon me I felt some type of latex glove reach out and pull me from the warm relaxing circular stomach. I looked up and it was some lady I that perhaps it was the lady that did all the yelling.
I looked up upon the lady and I notice that as I look onto the light I could then realize that it was a beautiful and gorgeous lady holding me into her arms. I can remember as if it was yesterday when the beautiful lady begin to exit the building congratulations on your success as the doctor yelled out and take it easy. Aw he’s so adorable my grandmother yelled out and has healthy light caramel skin as we got inside of the car I gleamed at the building as I left the building slowly.
As I arrived to the home as this was honored to me(Gary Indiana). I was introduced by the family members of my auntie, grandma, and my uncle it was more people in my family but at this time I was not introduced by them quite yet. As the years get older I was becoming bigger when I first became 1 years-old I had the best party of a life time I went swimming for the first and for the first time and I had a cake. And I then got a chance to meet the rest of my family members.
As I became 2 years-old my mother and her sister had been trying there best to potty train so every time they would leave me without any diapers I would pee on my self just to get my self cleaned up. I took many pictures (I wouldn’t stay still while taking a picture so they would have to give me a lollipop) with my family so that I would be able to look back on them at the age of now and say that I can remember that as well as anything else.
Mom-me that was my first word at the age of 3 years-old Wining back and forth I through the school not wanting to go inside as I cried rapidly I realized that it was a place to have fun (or that’s what I thought at the increasing amount of age).I then saw that being there in pre-school was really fun by having to just scribble and draw figures the best thing that I liked about pre-school was hand painting. I had also made friends during this certain period of time.
The years went by slowly as I became the age of 4 years-old I learned all of my ABC, and 123s (well at least I was trying to). I went places with my mom on the daily bases my brother was two years older than me I thought that I was the only child until he came from out of town which was in Chicago Illinois. The kind of places my mother took me were going different places like to California, Georgia, and more places like to the park and to the movies and arcades etc.
As I became 5 years-old I was disappointed of the fact that I was moving from Gary Indiana to go and live in Chicago but I had a choice to either live in Gary Indiana or to live with my grandma in Indianapolis. As always I decided to live with my mom and during this time I was in kindergarten having not being there everyday I was finally potty trained. And for the first time ever I went to Oddessy Fun World and had the biggest cake ever with strawberry’s inside yum delicious.

Bass School Room107-8th Persuasive Writing

Intro: Think about a time when the weather prevented you from doing something you wanted to do tell what happen and how you felt

‘’Epée, Eeeeeh,Eeeeeeeh!’as the bell gets louder and louder am quickly trying to find my way across the hall toward the exit outside the building impatiently gasping for air Thun,Thun as the lighting strike at the trees as I exit outside the building trying to find my way from school as I grab all of my books assignments and class work outside the door with me.
The minute that I exit outside the building my face filled up with disappointment as I exit outside the building slowly as I walked out the building I heard the lighting ripping across the sky as I rushed home from school. As I ran into the house slamming the front door as I stared at my mom as traded glances of sadly disappointment I had tried to figure out what I would do for the rest of the evening. Which was to do nothing but study the rest of the day since I had a test tomorrow which was not so easy to do?
As I rushed into my room pounding my face into my pillow I had though of which problem that I would like to start on first as to which would be presented the next day on my quiz/test. I goldenly remembered that I had a football tournament that same of which I had to study for the test that same day. As I reached out to make a phone call to my football coach I heard a sudden sound which gave out like soaring, ring, ring, ring!” Then again ring, ring, ring!” I picked up the phone stunned as to who it was that was calling at this time which I was trying to call he-hello it was my football coach as I gave out a loud cry. At that moment he had told me that the football tournament was cancelled and it won’t be resumed until further notice as he finished his last sentence over the phone to me he told me the positions that I will be playing which were wide receiver running back and defensive end. When I heard that I felt even more disappointed to now know what type of positions I would play during the tournament which is three of the best positions to be played while on the field. I feel that now since there is no football game that know I have an expansion amount of time to study and study my routes as to positions as to the football tournament and what I would have to do to keep those positions on the football team.
The following things that I have learned during this time where I couldn’t play in the football tournament because of the weather as to now where you always have to plan ahead just in case if one thing doesn’t work out for you that you planned out for that day then maybe you can plan out something else that you know will work weather its raining or not, and that is what I have learned during this time period.
