Awesome Middle Schools

Hey guys, I`m just posting to tell you what awesome middle schools I've toured

My top 2 middle schools:

ICE
MS 51

I bet you`re wondering why these are my top 2, well  ICE has a GREAT  arts program and lets you experiment different ways of learning they let you make a movie and put a song in it based on what they are learning in History class!!! And MS 51 is because it is very close to the neighborhood and when I was touring they put on this ridiculously funny play about these 3 french people and one dude made a "super flying machine" and plans to jump off the Eiffel tower and the other 2 try to stop him!!! So anyway, make sure you check those 2 schools out!!!!!

Hey viewers

Day of the dead

   Today, we learned about Day of the Dead (which was today).  I learned  that is a very important holiday to Mexicans (and class 5-301).  It celebrates loved ones that have passed away to celebrate what great lives they had. Because of this, I think that Mexicans have a very festive ways of celebrating.
   I came to the idea that Mexicans have a very festive way of celebrating, because on Day of the Dead  they have candies, sell little decorations (such as candle holders, little skulls etc.) eat lots of different foods, and decorate their houses!
   This affects me because it changed my thinking about remembering people who have died. Instead of remembering loved one dying being a bad thing, it can be a happy thing to celebrate! Because before I thought of the people I knew that have died was a really sad and awful thing, but now I'm going to try to think about how great their lives were.
   This affects the greater world because it makes people think about death in a different perspective, that it can be a happy thing to remember their lives.
