My Year at Asa Clark


Author's note: In this post I will tell how my year was, and how I thought the year was. I will also put one at the end of the year.

My Year at Asa Clark Middle School
My year at Asa has been an experience I won't forget right away. I have made a few friends. I solved the problem of being teased by one of the two people that teased me. I also got to experience a new way of learning in school.

I would say that 7th grade has clearly been the strangest school year I have experienced. That's how it usually is, middle school is supposed to be the best and worst years of your life, probably because you're maturing and you’re not a kid any more.

I didn't make many friends, maybe one or two, but that's it. There have been a lot more dances this year than last year, I only remember two from last year, now they have one about every month. I like Asa Clark better than all of my other schools, especially Horizon, I guess I just didn't like how they ran their school, though my teacher wasn't strict, or at least really strict.

The only thing that I hate about Asa Clark was, bullying, now I wasn't bullied physically, it was more mentally and I didn't catch on right away, but I eventually figured out they were teasing me, they only teased me, but it happened constantly, like bullying. If they try to tease me again, I am going straight up to the district and DEMAND that they do something, because it felt like everybody was against me, like they were some kind of group, and everybody was in it, because not ONE person did anything about it, they just stood there and watched them tease me. Though my sisters were bullied worse than me, I was told that somebody once set one of my sisters hair on fire.

Trust me if the school does something, but they still bully me, I am going to explode, and I am going to go up to the staff and say that I am not leaving until they stop bullying me, trust me I am NOT going to spend another year having them bully me, because I will not stand it, because the main reason 6th grade was horrible was because they bullied me all year.

Until about the middle of second quarter, one of them still bullied me in gym, though it wasn't as worse, and I actually did something about it. This year has been better that last year, mainly because of Academy 21, I have met many people this year that I didn't know last year and if I were to count the number of people I met this year an didn't know this year would be over 10.

My Projects.

I am putting a few posts on My Projects page, and moving a few posts there.

My Responce to the David's Heartbeat Field Trip 2/10/12

Author's Note: This is about my response to the field trip on Friday. I also split my responses into three sections, the play, the bus ride, and the entire field trip.  (2/10/12)  

The David's Heartbeat Field Trip was very fun and interesting field trip. I also thought that it was cool that one of the Academy members was in it, I was surprised.  I thought it was educational.

The play
The play was very interesting, it was cool that someone in the Academy was in the play, one reason I went was because it was church related. I noticed that they used movements instead of talking. They had speakers do the talking. I also thought that the dancers danced really well. I thought the play was very entertaining.

The bus ride & lunch
The bus ride was fun, though most of the time the people in the back were goofing off. I think it was good that the helper was there, because it could have gotten crazy back there. Lunch was okay, because they didn't have Cousin's Subs there, only Subway though it was good.

The Field Trip
The field trip was good, because everybody was sitting there watching the play, and not goofing off. The bus ride was good because we didn't leave anybody behind, which would have been horrible. Lunch was good because everybody got to choose what they were going to have for lunch, instead of the teacher bringing lunch for the class, or everybody bringing a lunch.

My opinion
I thought that the field trip was worth missing half the day, though I am a little behind in one of my allied classes. The field trip was fun, and gave me a little break away from school. I would like to thank the people who did the field trip, it was worth it.

Nepal Project

Author's Note: This is a research report. In this process, I learned that Nepal is a unique country. I learned that Mt. Everest is in Nepal. I learned that Nepal started a government  in 1951.



Nepal is a unique and interesting country. Nepal is located in south Asia. Nepal has many animals, most of them that might not even be in the United States. Nepal has a variety of climate.  Nepal is the highest country in the world.

Nepal has many religions. Hinduism is the most common religion in Nepal; Buddhism is the second biggest religion, Islam is the third largest religion, Mundhum is, Christianity is the fifth largest religion.

Nepal has many animals. The Indian Rhinoceros rest in the shade near rivers, lakes, and ponds. The Snow leopard is a very uncommon sight because people hunt them and use their organs for their own needs. The Clouded Leopard can use their claws to hang upside down on trees. The Marbled Cat is afraid of humans and its expression turns fierce and is killed by humans. The Red Panda are mainly active at night, when they hunt.

Nepal has a variety of climates. Nepal has mainly arctic climate because it is in a mountain range. Nepal is also has tropical and subtropical climate because of the low altitude. Nepal has cold climate because of the altitude. There is a subarctic climate because of the high altitude.

Nepal has a bunch of different rocks and stones. Limestone is made out of shells that were forced together. Sandstone is sand grains mashed together. Shale is clay that has hardened and turned into rock. Some rocks are fossiliferous, so they include fossilized plants and animals. Some rocks are unfossilferous, so they don’t include fossilized plants and animals.

Nepal would be an interesting place to visit, because it has a variety of many things. If you went to Nepal, you would see tons of animals, birds, and mountains.  If I dug in the ground, I would probably find many kinds of rocks and minerals.
