What do I Know to be True?

May 8th, 2008 by jhonnya

What I know to be true is the God is real. I know he is real because it is just a feeling in me. It just lets me know that I’m not alone when I think that I am. I may not have any proof but the bible its self lets me believe that it is real to me. I know when I pray or anybody else prays that they know someone is listening to them. Sometimes I do not pray but when I do I feel better. This is how I know for it to be true.

Culture N Sucsess

April 9th, 2008 by jhonnya

    Things that I put inside a box are:Mexican reciepies, set of clothing for a charro, and Mexican music. As you can probly tell already that I come from a Mexican background these things are things that I think makes the Mexican culture unique. The first thing i would inside a box it would be a book of Mexican reciepies because our spicy and awsome chili for spic and taste. An other thing I would in the box is a set of clothes of a charro,which is a person that drops down a bull ina rodeo, to see the my traditional festavial clothing. I would also put Mexican music so that people can see how different and unique our music is.

    Sucsess is something that can be accomplished in many ways. I believe you can achieve this by getting education,religion,life,family,and health. but it really matters what you think you goal and decide if you accoplished your goal or not, so really it’s all you do it to it I always say. You an also can sucsessed by getting a good job for your self and a family der to push to continue in your studies sometimes you need dat extra push but at times if you do it your self witout being reminded then you have accomplish alot because you just became responsible and self confident that is my goal and that is what sucsess is to.

3 Aspects of My Culture and What is Sucsess

April 8th, 2008 by jhonnya

  The three things i would put inside a box would be Mexican food recipes  so that  people could see our ways of cooking or  even try  to make it. A set of clothing for Charros, which are guys on horses catching the bulls, so they can see my costumes of  my Mexican American  family.  I would also  put a  type of Mexican music  inside to hear  our  rare  sounds  of music  and  beats.

Success is a way of feeling that you have complete your journey in life that you feel happy. It also involves Religion and without health,family you wouldn’t be able to enjoy any of the best things in life. Also education because you can succeed in your life with knowledge, which prepares you for the future

Wallace v. Jaffree

April 2nd, 2008 by jhonnya

     Wallace v. Jaffree was a Supreme Court Case about a parent and the child. A parent was suing a public school for having religion as meditation for the children. The parent said that the law2 of praying in public schools was breaking the 1st Amendment. The 1st Amendment states that no law can be put that forces someone to study a new religion and not study their own. It also states that people can not put religion in a school or in any other place without permission. So when this case went to the District Court, it was passed. When it went to the Court of Appeals, they said that the law was unconstitutional. They said that this law was going against the 1st Amendment. When it went to the Supreme Court, the results came out to be 6 to 3. So, at the end of this case, the law from the school was not allowed any more.

     What I think about this case is that it was a good idea to take away the law. I think that it is not fair for the public school to have prayer when the parent did not want it. The school could have had something else for meditation instead of prayer. Every person has the right to say if they want religion in the school for their children. They also have the chance to say if they don’t want religion in the school. It is not fair that the government of the state to put a law that gives the school permission to allow prayer if parents don’t want to. As I said before, the parent has the right to let their child have prayer in their school only if they want to. This is why I am against this case.  -Eduardo-

     What I think about the case is that the child involved in this case didn’t have to have any part in the prayer. The minor could have gone to a different room or could have done some other method of peace and meditation. The parent of the minor could have just asked the teacher to excuse the minor from the meditation. The minor could have had asked the principal what activities other than meditation he could have done. This would have prevented this problem from going to the Supreme Court. That’s why I am for this case. -Jonathan-

Outsiders Ch.11&12

December 18th, 2007 by jhonnya

        

The word that I chose was Friendship because all the greasers stickled up with each other. They show friendship by fighting in the rumble with all the greasers for respect and for Dally and Johnny. These group of friends stickled together through everything they have been through and that’s why they are friends. This is the word that describes these chapters for me.

My Thoughts

December 18th, 2007 by jhonnya

  My  thought  about  the  calibration with the students in

Canada. I would do this again because it was very exciting for as a student to be working with someone out of the country. This was a great experience for me and I plan on doing it again. The things i would probity change is that we should be more organized then we were in the last project that we had. But other than that I would deftly be enjoying the next project we have with

Canada.

OutSiders chapter 5&6

November 5th, 2007 by jhonnya

The word that would describe this chapters 5 & 6 is heroism. I think this because when Johnny and Pony go inside the old abandon church that was set on flames to save the little kids. They didn’t really have to do that but they thought that the little children were important to help so they did.

My Thoughts (the begining)

November 5th, 2007 by jhonnya

I think a word that would discribe chapters 1&2 would be Action. I chose this word because it is filled with a lot of action like fights,jumping,and struggles with their friends. This book i could  see what they are going through becuase i’ve seen people goned through the same things that Pony,Jhonny, and the rest or the gang. The way the book discribes the way they fight is very old fashioned because they fight with pocket knifes and chains. And now a days people might fight with guns or maybe bats. This is what my impression of the OutSiders is to me.

The Veldt the final ;-)

October 9th, 2007 by jhonnya

1) What kind of relationships do you see in the Veldt?

The kind of relationships that I see in the Veldt is that the parents do not communicate with the children. Their relationship was not really a relationship at all. An other relationship that I saw in this story was the room with the children because they spent a lot of time with each other. They have also replaced their own parents with the room. An other relationship I saw in this story was Peter and Wendy, they play with each other almost all the time. They also count on each other and they help each other with their problems.  

2) How do you see power? How is power displayed ?

I saw power in the children because of there imagination. I also saw it in the children, used their power to get what they wanted like when they both start crying to get the room back and they get it back by making the parents feel guilt. It is also shown by them having control over their parents. An other power that I saw in this story was that the people that walked inside the room had the power to change it into something they wanted to go, like Hawaii or like in the story Africa.
