Dear Mrs. Vallejo
Knowing you and the person you are I think you are going to love this book. This book talks about allot of science and history. Talks about how they try to get to the center of the earth. The settings that is very imaginative. They describe it so descriptive that you are able to picture where the place is and/or what they are trying to get you to read. They have some descript able characteristics of the animals and the places. You are going to love the way they describe the locations and the props they use like a boat or a gun. You were a teacher once you would be able to understand the concept they were trying to get you to do. Also the things that were good were the descriptive of the plants and the house the reptiles also live. They have the greatest dialogue I have ever seen. You know how a science/social study is so boring, well this book helps me understand it so much better. It’s a great adventure that would be great if you read it too. If you read it we going to be two people that are going to be interested in this book and have something to talk about. Always talking about how the scientists are and how to cause excuses. I think there is no excuse for this book. This book is one of the best books and you could be able to understand it. You would be able to have that thrilling experience filling like a rollercoaster. You would be excited and you can also scream of all the adventurous, risky things that happened to them. The climax is the best part of the story. The climax will make you get out of your feet and make you jump up and read really fast to see what happens next. The problem will make you fall and it’s so bad you would want to read to see what happens. In the falling action you feel/ see the problems kind of fixing, almost about to finish, trying to restore everything and things kind of getting back to normal. This is the relaxing moment trying to get things solve not to have enemies. The best part of all, one of the favorite parts. The Resolution. This talks on how things end up usually they end up pretty good with a happily ever after. They have the best part and u gets to kick back and relax and enjoy the ending of the book. They end up falling in love, how they solved the problems, and how they end up. Mrs. Vallejo once again I tell you to read this book. I’ll tell you a part that is very descriptive. They go through that big volcano. They describe how the heat feels going through the face of the nephew and also how the sweat runs down their cheek. Mrs. V. this book is the best and I recommend you read it.

Jules Verne
Jules Burn. He is one of the most best scientest ever in science. He is the most known and was long time ago. This book was written by him originally and was adpted by another person. Why write about the other person if the man that first created is here. This man right here was from france and heb was a really a person thaat likes to study. He woulde rent boats wit his brother and take it out to see other ships and explore the things around nhim. He would take notes and astudy them the next day. AQlso the next day this guy would make littler stories that goes wit the things he had looked at. HYad a great imagination and wrote aboput almost anythi8ng(that had to do with nature).
Tjhis man right here also known as frciton man found out the things iof friction. There was a force that had stopped everything anf and wen the opposite way than the other abjects force. Which in small words this guy actually fiugured out and called that the opposing force of the abject is called friction!! I would think of this guy as really smart and very intelligent had the best imagination which connected natural geographics with a life story. He liked creating stories that had to dop with science and fiction. He created this book and many more. He werote stories that made sesne and had to use logic to find its way out. Knowing a lot of information he put it in his book so he could share the knwledge he knows. The things that this author wrote the book about was very old and was adopted by another publisher to make it in a modern book. It was so popular it was also created into a movie. Where there was color and actors.

Journey To Center Of The Earth
My name is Professor Gorge, my nephew and I was talking on how Pangaea came to form to our world today. In our lives a lot of things happened that can’t not even forget. My nephew and I have been through a lot together. His parents died at the age of 5 and no one else was there to take care of him instead of me. I decided to take care o him because if I didn’t he would be given to the orphanage! I took care of him. I didn’t have the money to spend in school for him so I taught him what I knew. My father was one of Boston’s greatest historians. He taught me all he knew since he didn’t have money for me for school/education. Before my father past away in a quest to finding the center of the earth he said that I have to put all this he has taught me in good use and show the whole world what he can/could discover. So a lot of years passed and my nephew and I became so close together. Every single day waking up early and looking at social studies studying the earth and looking at different cultures. My nephew really learned even though I knew that I didn’t teach well. Later on he was just like me, when we went to teach the people that wanted to learn. This is how I met Mrs. Samantha. My nephew and I were giving a class on how Pangaea was formed during thousands and thousands of years. We had robbed some equipment from the store 1 day before and the police were looking for us. I told my nephew that it was time to go and we rapped up and grabbed our things and were ready to head out. Told everybody our class was finished and everybody was getting up which was harder for them to find us. We were heading put when this lady named Mrs., Samantha wanted to talk to us about some help she needed. She said she was able to pay whatever since she was one of the richest people in Boston. Well we trying to run away told her that she should meet us in a restaurant and talk abou8t it there she was fine with it. We met up in the restaurant and heard what she had said. She said that her husband was also a historian like he was and wanted to find the center of the earth like his father. I said he could be done. Don’t you know that he could be dead right all of the things that were put in the line and you think he’s still alive? She was so positive that he was alive and decided to give us however much money we wanted for the journey to find the missing husband. I was like first we need to complete the journey and if we make it we talk about the price. So we accepted and didn’t want to take my nephew and when I was leaving he had followed me the whole way. He took the train I took and just followed me. When I saw hi0m I got mad but thought that he was going to be in great danger and he said he didn’t care, so I decided to take care o-f him. He told me when we discover the center of the earth I want to be there to celebrate. I was happy that I wasn’t going alone. Anyway, we went to this little city. The train had taken us there and just dropped us off. This city has the best equipment that we had ever seen and decided to rob it. Anyway we went in the midnight to try and steel what we could get ands this guy helped us get a lot of things. He was a chubby gray haired guy who is really buff and the best guy that has good accuracy in weapons. He had heard what we were going to do and asked if he could join. I was like the more the merrier. He also owned a boat that we could us so when we need to cross the ocean. We decide to take the guy and for some reason we saw Mrs. Samantha come in the hotel room that we were at and told us that she was going to go with us. First of all I explained that it was dangerous and second you’re a woman it’s going to be hard. She said she was able to take everything that was in her way and we had no other choice than to take her because it was her husband. Anyways we were going on our first boat ride and the map indicated we needed to find a volcano. If you didn’t know volcanoes have fire but his one is very different. It is hot but cooler than any others. There a lot of vapor and heat and next thing you know we are in the volcano. I was excited for the first steps but then it started getting hot and I started to sweat because of all the water vapor and heat there was in the volcano we went pretty far but was kind of worried because we have had no water only wine to drink which helped not get hungry and helped calm down or thirstiness. To tell you the truth the wine tasted so nasty and didn’t want no more. I was tired but when we hear this noise that sounded like a water fall. WATER was the first thing we thought because we were very thirsty. I poked a whole because it was coming from the other side. I poked it but this big rock started to come out and we all ran away. It was me and the rock and I had no way to go out. But I see Mrs. Samantha’s hand I grabbed and she pulled as hard as she could. She had saved my life and I thanked her. I saw3 that wind was moving her hair so we have had an opening to the next path. It was a beautiful view. We were able to run away from these animals/reptiles/pterodactyls. They had teeth and we had to hide. When we escaped we were able to eat some of animals from the sea. Going the way that Mrs. Samantha had told us we went and appeared at this place that was filled with plants and blue/green plants. Mrs. Samantha was robbed by some weird look9ng animals. I had gone and we went to rescue her. I did all I could so I would rescue her. To tell you the truth I fell in love with that woman. Now that the man has changed and didn’t want to see her anymore I had the opportunity to show her how much I love her. Three people over a bunch of them reptiles. I had the gun and we broke in to save them the chubby guy Saul had my back and shot the people that got in our way. I was pissed and started to punch people that got in the way while my nephew planted a bomb in the it. We had to escape and I was able to escape and went to the blue/green place. We lived happily ever after and were there to protect them from the evil reptiles!

narrative poem
• I am here to talk to you about this rhyme
• This talks about things that happen time to time
• First I was a smart kid, flooding, with my shirt tucked in, pretty
much like a nerd
• Now I am in the basketball team and pretty often heard
• This girl I am going to talk about is the best of them all
• For me it’s better than bouncing or kicking a ball
• Her beautiful eyes and her beautiful hair
• If you didn’t notice, I would always stare
• There was a week we just hanged out
• I’d will just poke you and you would shout
• That one night I felt that I loved you
• I remember texting and didn’t know what to say.. I had no clue
• I texted saying you saying that I had felt something close to you
• I send it, waiting impatiently, with nothing to do
• You said “I don’t know, I will think about it
• I was really nervous I couldn’t sit
• All these people helped me I am not going to take the credit all by myself
• I went to the library and grabbed a book on “how to treat girls
nice”, on the bottom shelf
• Greg, Vanessa, Dorian, Noel, and Felix helped me
• Vanessa came to my class during 4th period screaming she had said SI
(Spanish word for yes)
• I thought that, that day was the best day of my life
• Thinking that you would one day be my wife
• I would impress you like bears trying to get honey from a bee hive
for his partner
• Everybody was like “ wow Josh you go out with her”
• I tried to do my best to keep this relationship alive
• But whatever relationship lives, sooner or later has to die
• She said it was over, and she didn’t like me no more
• In that very moment all my dreams and goals just tore
• Have you heard any guy tell you that only girls cry, well I was a
girl for a lot of days
• For 2 weeks I didn’t have nothing to say
• If nobody told you, I wrote a lot of poems about you, all by myself
• Still have the poetry book I wrote, right on the top shelf
• Couldn’t play basketball for as much as I wanted to
• When I played all I would always think of you
• I felt that something had stabbed me through my heart
• First we were going out and with a blink of an eye, we are apart
• Well that’s how I got an NP on Mrs. Mejia’s class
• I can’t believe I said that, I just put myself on blast
• Well I really missed her and her smell of cinnamon
• But guess what I wrote this poem so I can try to move on

Anne Frank- Stage Adaption
Anne Frank was one bravest girl I know in my life. She went through a lot and with a lot of that going on, she didn’t back down. This play takes place on November 1945, in Hamersterdam. This was the place that they were hiding. Anne’s family and the other family named the Van Daan’s were hiding because they were Jewish. In this time Hitler was in power and wanted to eliminate a lot of people because he said they were “useless compared to them or were not as superior as a German”. While they hide this women named Miep and Mr. Kraler go get them food, books, and whatever else they needed. They have to be there for a long time and then for living to long in their Peter (son of the Van Daan’s) ends up falling in love with Anne Frank (the daughter of the Franks). Well they fall in love and hear things or rumors that the war was going good, then they said the war was going bad, but after wards they heard it was going good again. Well when they heard these news they heard something happening downstairs and got scared thinking it was the Nazis because they had made a lot of noise. Well they find out that it was only just a thief. They were all good to hear about it was just a thief but Mr. Dussel (another person who joins them, He is a well known Jewish Dentist) said that what if they heard somebody in an upstairs room and the Nazis could come and find them. Well they didn’t pay much attention. When one day there came the Green police (Nazis) and took them to concentration camps. The only one to survive out of all those people was Mr. Frank and Miep/ Mr. Kraler (but they weren’t Jewish), and he is here in this play talking about the Diary of Anne Frank.
