My favorite subject in math ( power paragraph)

My favorite subject in school is math. I prefer math because I understand it better. I like it best because I don’t have to memorize lots of stuff as I would in other classes.  I use it in everyday life. To me there is no escaping math it’s always there and always will be. Possibilities for learning math are endless because there are endless numbers and endless things to do with them. I like how in math I can learn different things using numbers I learned when I was younger. Math is a major subject along with Ela, Social Studies, and Science.  Math is also a challenge because I sometimes get two steps mixed up or I forget about how to solve a particular problem. That’s why I love math.

What would school be without a discipline code or rules

      School would be very different if there were no rules or discipline code.  Children would be able to do whatever they want which would lead to disaster.  Some rules are that you have to attend school regularly and punctually and properly maintain textbooks and other equipment. Without this rule kids would be able to go to school whenever they want and could treat school equipment badly.  Schools also have disciplinary responses. One of them would be Removal from a classroom by a teacher. This means that a student who engages in inappropriate behavior or interfers a class a teacher is allowed to remove them. Another one would be Principals suspension is that the principal has the authority to suspend a student for 1-5 days when a student’s behavior presents danger or injuries to other students. That’s why schools have rules.

Albert Einstien

a Jewish white male born in March 14 1879 in Germany.  He is most known to be a peaceful man even though he signed a letter urging the invention of the atomic bomb. He did receive the Nobel Prize in physics in 1921. He said the theory of relativity is not constant and neither is weight or mass. He believed moving at high speeds all other things get compressed; only the speed of light remains the same. That happens because Einstein said energy is equal to mass times the speed of light squared, or E = mc2 (which means energy equal mass times the velocity of light squared).  Einstein thought “imagination is more important than knowledge”. In my opinion this is a very dangerous man.

What is the main setting of the novel?

The novel takes place in the Country right in a town where the railroad tracks cut in two.

Describe the main characters.  Who is the protagonist? Who is the antagonist?

Mary Alice is the young sister, nice, and has a good hear. Joey is the older brother, he is very loyal to his family, and Grandma Dowdel who is old but funny. She is a different kind of grandmother because she doesn’t like gossip about her, and she loves to black mail people. The protagonist changes a lot in the story, one of them is Eiffie Wilcox and the other one is the Cowgill’s brothers. The antagonists are Mary Alice, her brother Joey and grandma Dowdel.

What is the main conflict of the novel? How is the problem resolved? Explain.

The main conflict changes during the visits of the protagonists. One of them happens when the Cowgill brothers blow up grandma’s mail box. The other conflict happens when the sheriffs accused grandma of stealing their boat, and giving food to the hungry without a permit. Problem resolved by grandma finding out that the Cowgill’s brothers did it and tells their parents.

From what point of view is the story told?

The story is told by Joey’s point of view.

Choose one of the following elements and describe how the author implements it into the novel: irony, foreshadowing, suspense or symbolism.

I chose suspense because I waited eagerly for the characters next movie.

Describe each part of the plot in detail.

Exposition:

The background of the story shows how Mary Alice and Joey dread going to their grandmother’s house. They rather stay in Chicago with their parents and friends.

Rising Action:

A part of the rising action is when everyone thinks Shotgun Cheatman moved after his death but ends up being the cat that moved the corps.

Climax:

The climax of the story is when grandma threats the bank to give Effie’s house back free of charge, and still convince the banker to give two dollars to Mary Alice, and two for Joey.

Falling Action:

Most of the falling action happens when grandma has a showdown with Mrs. Weidenback about whose family has the most talent and the country’s oldest living citizen.

Resolution:

Joey and Mary Alice grow old. Joey joins the Army during the World War II and during his trip by train he passes through grandma’s town and she waves at him.

Describe one theme of the novel in detail.

My favorite theme of the novel is doing the right thing. Grandma helps a person even though she was not her friend.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Yes, I would recommend this book to a friend, because it’s funny, thought me how to be a good person and do the right thing.
