WELCOME TO LES MIS

At the beginning of the book, the author wrote a preface, saying that as long as we exist, under the state law, a strong interaction, we will have to deal with all the problems that are going to be around us and that we have to be aware of what's happening. 

Literature Analysis

Book: Search for Safety Author: Paul Langan Plot : The plot in this story is when Ben starts having problems with his family at home. Theme : Ben is lying to the principal, his friends, and family about his problem at home. Authors morning routines : The author gets up early so he can think about how his morning and day is going to be.  He probably does Yoga in order to get relaxed and forget about what is happening outside the world.  Also, I imagine the author writing more books so he can keep impressing and entertaining his readers. Literacy Techniques : Figurative language: helps me understand the reading because in the story there are many arguments involved. Characterizations: helps me because I could imagine what each character is doing. Personification: Helps me understand how the characters are on the story. Metaphors: " Larry kicked me with his heavy black work boot." Flashback: Some parts of the story make me remember about how I act with my parents

THOUGHTS ON TODAY'S READING

October 17, 2018 bureau: drawers; closet  October 18, 2018 October 19 , 2018 Ben's trouble in his house is never going away because he is lying to everyone that he is fine while at home he is getting beaten up and has bruises all over his body.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

I'M IN CHARGE

Some high school students need to be told what to do all the time and reminded or threatened when  they don't get the job done.  Independent work can be challenging, but I like it because it helps me use more of my knowledge and I can think more and learn from my mistakes. 

TO READ OR NOT TO READ

What I think about our conversation and our decision about reading    Les Misérables is inspiring me because I'm going to read a book that is going to open up my brain and make/ help me learn and understand what he story is going to be about.  

INVESTING IN ME

I am going to start fundraising for my life after high school by working and/or going to college and getting a scholarship to help me with my payments.  After that I will earn some money so I can be able to buy all of the things that I will need in the future.

SEEDS OF A REVOLUTION

The conflict between the Monarchy and the nobility over the "reform" of the tax system led to paralysis and bankruptcy.  There was a crisis and disorders caused by food storage.
