What would happen in a world where it was the child's choice to go to school? Would you go to school?
In a world like this, there would be no education. Children do not know right from wrong. All the way up until 4th grade, I thought school was pointless, but now, I know there is a real reason behind it. If you want to succeed in life, you have to go to school to learn.
I personally, don't know what I would do. It depends on what age I am.

Writing Center Experience
This semester, we had two major papers to write. Our "Literacy Narrative" and our "Literary Analysis." Our class spent a lot of time on these papers. I feel like my class in general worked extra hard on these papers because almost everybody asks questions in class about them. If you ask questions, it becomes clearer to you when they get answered by your teacher.
The Writing Center is a great tool available for Episcopal students.. This center is made up of very smart, english-loving students who want to help you write your paper. I attended this center twice this semester. My person that helped me was Aly. She is very smart and I feel like the Writing Center helped me overall want to help other people and it even helped improve my paper grade.

I went to the Saints game in New Orleans last week. I really do not go to many Saints games, but my friend had tickets so we decided that we would go. Before the game, we tailgated all day with my friends mom, ( she is very funny) and then went on into the game. There were so many people there, that I almost got lost.
The Mercedes Benz Superdome is one of the most awesome places I have ever been. It is huge! When the crowd gets loud, it is louder than Tiger Stadium no doubt. It was a really fun experience and I look forward to going back. Especially with my friend and his family!

Prompt
In what ways do you think the author of "Lord of the Flies" foreshadows the ending throughout the book?
Throughout the first part of the book, the author makes Jack look like a mysterious, evil guy. Because the author does this, I think that Jack has a master plan to take over the group of kids. Why would the author have him come across as evil and then not use him as a foreshadowing tool?

Our football team is 10-0. Episcopal High School's football team has never done that before. Ever. In the history of Episcopal, the football team has never wenT 10-0. We have accomplished so much together and bond as a team so greatly. When someone falls, or gets hurt, the next person is always ready to step up. We stick as a team, and fight as a team no matter what.
We have a chance of winning the STATE CHAMPIONSHIP this year. I was just in New Orleans at the New Orleans Saints game in the super dome, and I thought to myself how cool it would be to play in that exact stadium. The stadium that Drew Brees calls his "home." I hope we make it there and I also hope we win! I have heard that winning state with a team that you are close to is the best feeling of your whole life. I want to be able to experience that. #geauxknights

Reflection
In class thursday, we did a simulation on what it would be like to be stranded in the wild with no grownups. I feel like what happened in class, is nothing compared to what would actually happen in real life. There would be way more chaos and confusion. In class, we picked a leader with a small amount of chaos. In real life, I feel like everyone would want to be the leader and there would be fighting over who got to be leader.
We also chose many other jobs for differenT people to do. In class, everyone just agreed to what everyone else had to say. In real life, I feel like EVERYONE would want to do one thing. Real life cannot compare to a classroom at all. There would be people going crazy, tears, blood, and sweat everywhere. It is very hard to simulate a near death experience.
