My thoughts about ww2

A lot of thoughts has been brought up in my head after all this that we’ve seen and listened to about the world war two. I’ve started to think more about how to treat people. To respect them for who they are because during that war a lot of people got killed for being different. I think that what happened was terrible. I hope nothing like that happens ever again. I can’t really understand how anybody can be as heartless as Hitler and the people who followed him. But one thing that makes me even more disappointed isn’t just that Hitler was such a terrible person, it is that people actually agreed with him! And it wasn’t just like 10 people it was hundreds and thousands! 

But I’m really happy that there were people who stood up for what they thought and that they actually tried to help the Jews and all the other people who suffered from everything during the world war two.

Bokrecension - Only väg is upp

Bok: Only väg is upp

Författare: Emmy Abrahamsson

Jag har läst boken Only väg is upp. Jag hittade den här boken i en vanlig bokhandel och blev direkt fångad av texten på baksidan. Jag köpte den direkt och satte mig och läste.
I den här boken får vi följa en svensk tjej som nyligen gått ut gymnasiet och vill testa sina vingar genom att flytta till London. Filippa Karlssons dröm om att gå på världens bästa scenskola i London ska äntligen få möjlighet att slå in. När hon först kommer till London fylls hon med glädje om sin framtid som stor skådespelerska, men hennes humör ändras snart när nervositeten inför hennes första uttagning till scenskolan närmar sig. Inte nog med det behöver hon fixa en bostad, ett jobb och försöka skaffa någon vän i den nya staden. En dag träffar Filippa Danny, den snygge rockstjärnan som fångar hennes hjärta med en enda blick. Men är han var han verkar? Varför ljuger Filippa om att hennes mamma dött? Hur gör man det perfekta engelska tet? Och viktigast av allt, kommer Filippa in på Scenskolan och uppfyller sin dröm?
Den här boken var väldigt spännande och fångade verkligen upp en. Det var lätt att fastna och bara vilja fortsätta läsa. En av anledningarna till att jag började läsa den här boken var att jag kände igen mig själv i Filippas situation. Jag själv har länge drömt om att flytta till London och att gå på en scenskola hade ju varit fantastiskt.
Jag har sätt att det finns två uppföljare på den här boken: Stjäla the show och Make it stort. Och jag ser verkligen fram emot att läsa dem båda två för att se hur det går för Filippa.

Meningen med den här boken tror jag är att visa att man ska följa sina drömmar även om det är lite strömt och man stöter på många svåra hinder. Ge inte upp!

Jag ger Only väg is upp 4 av 5 stjärnor

Freedom Writers - Letter

Hello Ms Gruwell

How are you? I'm fine by the way and I just want to say that I've heard about your work an how good you are with your kids. I'm really impressed that you made the sort of worst kids in the school to the best class. I wish all teachers were like you. I think your right about respecting the kids, I think that's
actually the only way to get them to respect and trust you, if you do the same to them.

I just wanted to tell you, do never stop with what you do! You are really good at your job whatever anyone else says. I think you can do something really great! Good luck and have a good life!

English work about the movie "Freedom writers"

Assignment 2:

I've chosen these questions:

3. Why is trust such an important component of a teacher-student relationship?

My answer: I think that if the teacher trusts the students the students will feel like their words and what they think is importent and that they matter. I also think that if the students trust the teacher, the teacher will feel more confident and sure about teaching.

5. How do the classmates learn to trust one another? How does reading and writing initiate this change?
My answer: The students do different sort of tests and "games" to learn to trust one another. I think that there were a lot of missunderstandings before Ms Gruwell  came. These kids had seen a lot of bad stuff in their lives like death and drugs. So I think that when they were reading they got to see how other peoples lives were. And when they were writing they got to tell their own stories and write what they think about. 

8. Why is Eva so affected by the ending of Anne Frank’s diary?

My answer: I think that Eva liked the book very much, maybe because Anne Franks life reminded her of her own. And because Anne Frank had such a hard life I think that Eva wanted Anne to have a happy ending. 

10. Do you think it’s more important to “protect your own” or do what’s right?
My answer: I think that sometimes it might be hard to do whats right when someone you care about gets problems because of it. But I still think that you should always do what you think is right. 

11. In what ways does Ms. Gruwell’s classroom become a family for the students? Do you have a “family” outside of your actual family?
My answer: The students feel safe in the classroom and I think that wherever you feel safe and you feel like people respect you, that can be your home and the people can be your family. You don't have to be related to be a family.  

16. What did you think about the movie? Motivate your answer!
My answer: It was a really good movie. It made you think about how different people are and how good your life actually is. It's a really good movie when you want to learn about how it can be in other schools and how special everyone is. Everyone has their own story that they want to tell, the only thing you need to do is listen to them.   

Musikvideo-arbete

Grupp: Clara, Nathalie, Daniel och Razvan

• Hur har vi arbetat?
Samarbetet har varit lite sådär i våran grupp. Vissa har gjort väldigt mycket medan som vissa knappt gjort något. Från början hade vi tänkt vara i en annan grupp och jag tror att vi fått mer gjort om man fick vara med sånna som man vet att man kan jobba med. Men vi fick ändå gjort allting i tid så det var ju bra.

• Hur har jag arbetat?
Själv så har jag gjort mitt bästa i detta arbetet. Jag har kommit med idéer, jag och Clara klippte låten och finredigerade. Jag är nöjd med min egna insatts.

•Kunde vi gjort något annorlunda?
Vi kunde kanske lyssnat igenom låten en extra gång så att vi inte haft med något brus och onödigt ljud. Vi kunde delat upp arbetet bättre så att alla gjorde lika mycket.
