Tracy W., 3rd hour.

I walked into class just like any other day and sat down at my seat. I looked at the agenda and saw that today was a reading day. I was pretty happy because that's not too much work, I mean, no one really wants to work hard on a Friday. As Mr. Becker called ashley up to read her scribe notes aloud, Garrett kindly reminded me that i was todays scribe. So i thanked him then quickly ripped out a peice of paper and started taking notes. Ashley did a good job in highlighting the important points of our discussion. After she was done, Mr. Becker asked if i knew it was my day for scribe notes, and i did. (Thanks to Garrett) After Mr. Becker stood up, and everyone saw his shirt,that had the new speak word "ingsoc" from our book, he recieved many compliments and kudos. We were about to get started reading when Nick stood up holding a bag kind of far away from him, almost as if it smelled terrible. He dropped it and freaked out. I guess we were all making confused faces because he quickly explained that he thought there was a bomb in it. We all laughed and he gently put the bag at the front of the room.After everyone settled down, we al got started. All you could hear was pages turning and pencils scratching, which means everyone was working. It was really quiet and all the sudden we heard voices of little kids, and a few other strange sounds. No one knew what it was but Justin said he would go ask later. After that interruption, it was quiet the rest of the hour. Everyone was working until the last five minutes when everyone packs up. The bell rang and everyone quickly filed out of the room to go to their next class.

Dylan M 7th hour
As i walked into class i looked to the right and there were no papers so i thought today was going to be a swell day. So i got to my seat to read the board and the board said connections. So i said to my self good thing it wasnt me going. It was the first time anybody has done a connection for this semester. I was wondering what or how it would go. As he goes up to the class to present i was thinking to myself that this would be brutal when it was my turn. The presentation went on and i saw anime pictures that represented Julia and Winston, that made the whole class giggle. Next Mr. Becker says to the class that this is the last day for the "embedding Quotes" activity. If u get all your quotes right the first time you get a thirteen out of ten and a ring of the bell. If u dont get it right he made you go back to your seat and fix it till you get it 100%. Then you get your 10 points. The rest of the class was a breeze, just a simple reading day and homework finising. I kept my eye out on the clock and all that i saw was "click clock". It seemed to me that the clock had stopped moving. Well as the long day comes to a close Mr.Becker says to get your reading finished and discussion on monday. I glanced at the clock and it finally said 2 minutes on the clock. Some of the class started to get anxious and stood up. There was a line at the door waiting for that simple little bell to ring. The bell rung and we were off to the races. "Lets see who can get out the fastest?"
