Famous person

My Mom is like a police that saves me from right or wrong
She is like a flower that blooms every minute
My mom is bright also the thunder in the sky
My mom is like the brain that makes a body Function
By Larolyn Fanas


Your smile is like a bird who found love
your steps make people feel like a dove
your like a fireman that light out the fire
you like the world who means alot to me
your like a teacher that teaches me what to do
all i can say is i love you too

My Bull

My bull is white the silver fish in the river,

White the shimmering crane bird on the riverbank,

My Bull is White fresh milk!

His roar is thunder to the Turkish cannon on the steep shore.

My bull is dark the rain cloud in a storm.

He is the summer and winter.

Half of him is a dark the storm cloud

Half of him is light the sunshine.

His back shines to the morning star.

His brow is red the back of a Hornbill.

His forehead is a flag, calling the people from a distance.

He resembles the rainbow.

I will water him at the river,

With my spear I shall drive my enemies.

Let them water their herds at the well;

The river belongs to me and my bull.

Drink, my bull, form the river; I am here to guard you with my spear

Jim Crow Racism

Jim Crow is like baby asking for more 
might as well  walk right out the Door 
Racism is noting but hesitation
white people wont even try to have a Conversation
Black kids screaming of the pain 
while white people laugh Thinking  it a game 
The bathrooms were Dirty like a Crash bird
Martin Luther King Stop it using Big words 
Making us  feel bad by calling us names
Hope we can make yah feel the same 
Made us craw like it was The law
This is What we going to do
make Racism End soon
by: Larolyn Fanas

2/2/09 aim: how do we use spreadsheets to create graphs?

Today in class we learn how to display data in Microsoft Excel. We wrote the data in Microsoft Excel and Create a bar graph and a Circle Graph. The first thing i we did is write the data in the cells and then copy it and created a bar graph and a circle Graph with the data  This is the data we did in class today.
activity           amount ($)
assemblies          275
dances               587
spring festival     412
awards banquet  384
other                 250  after this data we made our bar graph and Circle graph

which graph best displays the student council budget? Why? The circle graph displays the student council budget it displays it perfect because I can estimate how much each represents.  Would a line graph be an appropriate display of students council budget A line graph couldn't display cause a line graph  is use mostly to show the increase or decrease of a problem.
 Which type of graph is a better display of the data? why? I think the circle graph displays the data much better then a bar graph because as soon. The Circle
