Free Post

     This weeks blog was a free post which is pretty nice. Free posts really allows people to right about whatever they want. It lets them express themselves through writing. It lets people be themselves and write about something they care about or something they feel like writing. Free posts are very important for writers because it allows them to write what they want too and for people to see their true style and feelings about things.
     Free posts are important for people trying to become better writers because it opens their imagination. It allows them to write about things they usually wouldn't write about. Free post are great things that don't come around to often, but when they do people should take advantage of them. Use them to write to your best possible ability on things that you want too. Free post are great things that really help people become great writers.

Reading Response Weeek 6

   Jacob keeps going through the time loop to go see the children. He is still meeting the kids and learning what they can do. Jacob is starting to learn secrets about the place and the kids. Jacob and Emma are becoming really good friends. They have been spending a bunch of time together.
   I really like how the author is building the relationships between characters, especially Emma and Jacob. I'm also enjoying how the author is using vivid details to make it seam like your there. I think that the story is going to start speeding up with more action like in the beginning. I think something big is about to happen. So far I'm really enjoying the story.

Reading Response Week 5

     In Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children Jacob has is now in the past with the children. He is being taught on how they are in a time loop which the children's head mistress Miss Peregrine keeps working. Jacob gets to see the bombing that would have killed all of the children if they weren't in a loop. Jacob Has to go back to the present time so his father wont worry. Jacob and his dad get in a big fight when he comes back from the past.
     I am still really enjoying the book and I feel like it's getting a lot more interesting. I think Jacob will keep going to the past to see the children and learn more about his grandfather. I really like how the author is bringing the story into the past and the way he is doing it with the time loop. I also think that there is going to be some tension between Jacob and his dad especially after their fight. I wonder when they will leave the island and if Jacob will leave.

Short Story

     That night that Pedro left was terrible. That morning we all woke up and he was there. That day we were getting ready to move on to the next town so we could see if there were any more survivors. Ever since the war we have been moving from town to town trying to find people that hadn’t been taken or killed. We packed up whatever we had left and were moving to the edge of the small town we were staying in. Pedro seemed to be acting pretty normal, but every once and a while there was a small difference in the way he acted. He would get angry over the smallest things, and he got really violent sometimes. I thought it was just because of the war but looking back on it he really only started acting like this after we left this town about seventy miles away.

     That night we grabbed our things and started walking. We only walked for thirty minutes when Pedro asked to take a break. We said sure and took a break. Pedro went to go check out the surroundings really quick. He came back silently and we didn’t know until he attacked us. With rocks in his hands he hit us over the head and we were out cold. We woke up the next day with only a little of our stuff still there. We were all tied together around a tree. That was the last time we have seen Pedro in months, but when were in certain towns we hear about someone who’s description fits Pedro’s. One day we may find him and if we do he better be ready to explain himself.

Dear One Year Olds

     A very important skill for all one year olds to learn is how to walk. Once you learn how to walk you can go anywhere. Before you were stuck in that one place in the house, well not anymore because you have learned to walk. Now the whole house is yours to rome and adventure. So if you see a toy across the room and you want it, just stand up and walk over there. If you see a bowl of cheerios on the table and your feeling a little hungry, just walk on over there. The possibilities are endless when you learn how to walk.
     Another important piece of advice is that you should learn to talk. Now you don't need to be having full out conversations but you want to say the occasional word just to impress random people and get free stuff. With this tool the opportunity of people giving you stuff for free has just massively increased. You could be in this little store and there could be this cup of cheerios you want just say some stuff and try to get it. It works a good percentage of the time.
