Unfortunately Djo doesn’t fully recover because he still has some problem with moving his feet therefore he has to use a wheelchair. When Djo notices that he isn’t fully recovered so he decides to tell her that they can’t be together because their relationship won’t work out if he’s unable to move smoothly and have a normal life. Thus he wouldn’t want her to be stuck in taking care of him and ignoring her education which is an important part of her future. Also her mother and the nuns at her school are encouraging her to go to Paris and study so she isn’t stuck in poverty for life. While Titid becomes president, he improves the life of Haitians because he knows what the people need and what their hopes are. As a result he helps a lot of poor people and that decreases the amount of poor people living in Haiti.

Oops I fell in love with a bride!
I liked this movie because it has a variety of emotions and enjoyable moments. The movie is interesting because it shows that the actor’s personality changes and develops from a party guy to a guy that’s in love and can do anything to please Hannah. The actors played their parts pleasantly, for example some made u feel intense and they were basically pulling you into the movie to give you the feeling of being there and knowing what’s happening, while others were just a little dull. Overall the movie was good and so were the setting, lightening, music and plot. The names of the songs that were in the movie were “Love song” by Sara Bareilles, this song was matching to the movie since it was a romance song and so was the movie. There was also “walking on the sun” by smash mouth and some others.

Anticipation Guide Response
1. Politics and political problems are a subject for adults to deal with
I disagree because usually children listen to the news and know what’s happening around the world and in their countries. Also children can understand politics because for example in schools they usually have a student council to prepare activities for the students in the school. practically that’s just like the government making a council to decided on this for the government to do for the people in the country and so that’s kind of a link between children and politics.
2. All stories can have a happy ending if those involved work towards it.
I agree because we are the ones who control what goes on in our lives. So that means if we put a little more effort in our work and think positively we could actually have happy endings and nothing is impossible unless we think in a negative way. If we start thinking negatively then obviously we will end up with sad endings for silly mistakes we didn’t mean to do to make things worse for us and our lives. Although as we grow up our problems will get more complex and harder for us to solve so we could have a happy ending to our stories.
3. Literacy (being able to read) is a form of freedom.
I guess I agree with this point because well if people don’t know how to read then they don’t have freedom. They also won’t be able to live with us now days because everything in our lives depends on writing and reading and being educated. Also because as we know in civilizations before some didn’t support education because they didn’t want people to be free and learn things and know how to read and write to decided on their carriers and if they wanted to rebel against the government or stuff.
4. Civilizations without a written language cannot document history
I disagree because the people could draw it somewhere or built something to honor it. It could also be drawn on walls whether to decorate it or to record what was happening during that time. They could be told as stories or passed on from generations to other generations.

The Private Lives of Teachers
Suddenly a teacher came into our classroom to give Ms. Loizido her coffee. She gave her the coffee and told her to not scream again. Then Sarah was feeling cheeky and wanted to know what did Ms. Loizido scream about to loose her voice. Mostly it wasn’t only Sarah who wanted to know what happened all of us did. Then the teacher asked Ms. Loizido if she had told us about her holiday and what she was screaming for. Obviously Ms. Loizido’s reply was a “no”. Then the teacher was laughing so hard and we were all so confused.
The teacher started telling us the story, “So this is how it all started” she said. “Ms. Loizido and I went to China to watch the Olympics, we got there and we decided to do some other unusual activities other than shopping and just watching the Olympics”. She also said that they wanted to add a little more fun to their vacations and let this be their fantastic vacation that will go down in history. “We were looking for all sorts of fun activities to do especially the wildest activities ever”, She continued. “Then we went to the hotels activities office down in the lobby and checked out what they had”. We were all so bored when she was telling us about what activities they would do and we were all expecting her to say that they would go on some boat ride, see some historical sight or even go on a banana boat which is rather weird. When she said the wildest we all were like “oh why do I have a feeling that this isn’t going to be the wildest activity on earth??” Because for some reason it’s hard to believe that teachers can do such interesting and weird activities.
Oh my god you would not believe what she just said. They actually went on for a helicopter jump in China. She went on, “we jumped from a helicopter although the distance wasn’t that far, it was so fun and we had the parachutes open as soon as we reached half way”. We were so amazed about what we were hearing. She also informed us that Ms. Loizido was screaming while going down really fast and that’s why she lost her voice. Also because she was falling down and the air noise was loud and she tried to scream but hardly anyone heard her. She also told us that they went on a parachute boat ride and they actually did go on a banana boat wow.
So that was Ms. Loizido’s vacations that she didn’t tell us about and said that she had nothing special because she didn’t want us to know teachers secrets. Also she didn’t want us to laugh at her for screaming while falling because she lost her voice that way and it was too embarrassing for a teacher to say something like that when she is an actual teacher, who has studied about gravity and all of that scientific stuff.

favorite band or song
My favorite song is “Miss Independent” it’s by Ne-Yo I chose to write about a song because I don’t have a favorite band since I don’t really like rock music or metal. I prefer hip hop, trance, techno and pop. The genre of this song is pop and R&B. I like the song because I like the rhythm of the song and I like his voice. Also the way he sings the song is cool because I can understand the lyrics of the song and he isn’t screaming out so loud. Ne-Yo is half African half American; he was born in Camden, Arkansas in America but was raised in Las Vegas. He was born on the 18th of October 1982. He acted in Stomp the Yard and Save the Last Dance with his really close friend Columbus Short. Until now he has recorded 3 albums and they are In My Own Words, Because of You and Year of the Gentlemen. NeYo also wrote songs for Mary J. Blige, B2K and Faith Evans. I chose this song because its really sweet and it talks about him liking his boss. Also because the song is really catchy in a way and it makes you feel that you want to move to its rhythm.
