I think dreams can come true. The reason why I think dreams can come true is because if you try hard to make that dream true it will mostly happen. Like I had a dream of getting a chance of the world junior Canadian hockey team and I think the dream is going to come true soon because I am really trying hard and I got scouts looking at me now. At same time I think dreams can be lies because if you dream so much about something I findout you just dream about it and then you get carried away in somthing that is just not possible. So for me I have really mixed feelings about dreams and how they can come true and how they can be just a big lie that your mind is getting into. But I think dreams can mostly come true. I think Romeos dream about Rosaline is ok because Romeo had a huge crush on her but he did nothing about it so it not come true. I think if Romeo actually tried to get together with her they would have gotten together.

This week we learned about William Shakespeare and the Elizabethan theater. I found that when William did his performanceses if people did not like them. The people would start throwing stuff at the people performing so the performance had to be good. Most playwrights of the period typically collaborated with others at some point, and critics agree that Shakespeare did the same, mostly early and late in his career. Some attributions, such as Titus Andronicus and the early history plays, remain controversial, while The Two Noble Kinsmen and the lost Cardenio have well-attested contemporary documentation. Textual evidence also supports the view that several of the plays were revised by other writers after their original composition. The first recorded works of Shakespeare are Richard III and the three parts of Henry VI, written in the early 1590s during a vogue for historical drama. Shakespeare’s plays are difficult to date, however, and studies of the texts suggest that Titus Andronicus, The Comedy of Errors, The Taming of the Shrew and The Two Gentlemen of Verona may also belong to Shakespeare’s earliest period. His first histories, which draw heavily on the 1587 edition of Raphael Holinshed’s Chronicles of England, Scotland, and Ireland, dramatise the destructive results of weak or corrupt rule and have been interpreted as a justification for the origins of the Tudor dynasty. The early plays were influenced by the works of other Elizabethan dramatists, especially Thomas Kyd and Christopher Marlowe, by the traditions of medieval drama, and by the plays of Seneca. The Comedy of Errors was also based on classical models, but no source for The Taming of the Shrew has been found, though it is related to a separate play of the same name and may have derived from a folk story. Like The Two Gentlemen of Verona, in which two friends appear to approve of rape, the Shrew’s story of the taming of a woman’s independent spirit by a man sometimes troubles modern critics and directors.

Welcome to my SLC. For the past couple weeks I have been choosing my best work for this half of the year to show to you. The SLC is a face to face interview with your parents and one of my teachers.
Here is the order of what I will go threw.

Goals SLC
Goals
My goals for humanity’s for the rest of the year are to work harder. The reason why is because I think I don’t work my hardest sometimes because I get lazy.
My goals for science for the rest of the year is to pay attention more. The reason why is because I find my self talking to my friends to much sometimes.
My personal habits goals for the rest of the year is to study harder. The reason why is because if I study harder I think I can do better in flight.
Science SLC
SLC science
In science we have done some lab tests. One test was testing the strength of a metal paper clip by heating it red hot and cooling it really fast. Here are the results.
Hypothesis
I think the first paper clip that is heated will take more bends to break. The second paper clip I think will break in less amounts of bends.
Procedure
Paper clip without heat
16
Paper clip when cooled with room temperature
80
Paper clip cooled by water

Analyze
the paper clip that cooled in water.
Cooling in room temperature.
When the metal is heated is then cooled quickly it because stronger nut less flexible. When the metal is cooled over a long period if time it becomes more flexible.
This lab was to test the strength of a paper clip. We got to go into groups of two. I was with Chris. The first step was seeing how many times we can bend a paper clip till it breaks. The second step was heating a paper clip till red hot for ten seconds then let it cool for a bit. The third step was heating another paper clip till red hot then putting it in cold water to dry. See the chart for results. If I were to do it again I would do the lab twice so I get more data about the strength of paper clips. My weaknesses in science is getting to know new things.

In humanity’s I wrote a thing about why people climb mountains here it is.
Why people climb mountains
People club mountains because of many reasons. One of those many reasons is adventure. Lots of people climb mountains because of the adventure and the curiosity of what they will find. Mt Everest is the biggest mountain in the world and people are climbing it right now. Erik Weihenmayer climb Mt Everest for a huge adventure and he did it blind!. Eric climbed Mt Everest for inspiration and the adventure. He inspired people all around the world and caused a huge impact on achievement. Others climb mountains for different reasons like John Krakaour for research.
John Krackaour climbed Mt Everest to make a journal about it. He went to Outside Magazine and gave an idea of him climbing Mt Everest and making a journal about it. John wanted to climb Everest for all his life and making a journal about it is the perfect excuse for it. Outside Magazine paid him to climb Mt Everest and make a journal. John had to find a team or a person to climb with because this was his first time ever climbing Mt Everest. That is were John found Robb Hall.
Robb Hall was a New Zealand climber. He was on his fifth climb up Mt Everest with John Krackour. Robb was a leader in this climb. He unfortunately died in this climb from hypothermia. Robb climbed Mt Everest for the adventure. He also raised some awareness to show people what you can do.
Some people climb mountains because to get fit. A mountain expedition will put you in the best shape of your life. Ideally, you’d start training at 6-9 months before your climb. Having a clear reason to work out is a powerful motivator. Focusing your mind on your looming mission will keep you consistent. The training will likely put you in great shape. And then, there’s the climb. Your body will be consuming itself as the harsh conditions force you to burn to more calories than you can eat. You’ll be hard, strong, and incredibly ripped after a climb. Call it “the Mountaineering Cut.”
People climb mountains just too simply travel. People love to go see beautiful places around the world that the earth has to offer. People use it as the perfect excuse to go out and do something. People say mountains hide the most beautiful view on earth you just have to climb the mountain first.
Those are some of the many reasons why people climb mountains.
To create this creative writing I researched a lot about people and why they climb mountains. This assessment was based on a Mt Everest book that was called Into Thin Air. I found that my research was really good but my lay out could have had more work.
I think my skills in humanity’s are overall ok. I think my reading can use some work and my writing. Quizzes I think I am just fine at.
