(Early life)
My topic is about a skier who changed the thought of Canadians. That skier is Alexandre Bilodeau. Alexandre Bilodeau was born in September 8, 1987. He was born in Rosemere Quebec. Alexandre is 23 years old. Alexandre’s parents are Serge Bilodeau and Sylvie Michaud. Alexandre has two siblings. Alexandre has one older than him and one younger. His older sibling is his brother Friedrich Bilodeau and his younger sibling is his sister Beatrice Bilodeau. His brother is 27 years old and his sister is 16 years old. When Alexandre was younger his brother his sister and he always went to the rink. His mom got tired or always driving them there and picking them up so she asked Alexandre if he wanted to sign up for moguls and try it out sometime. After Alexandre thought about it he put down hockey and tried moguls. Now look where he is.
(Later life)
Alexandre has a lot of training in his life. Some people might say why is he training he is really good he doesn’t have to. But people got to know everyone needs practice. Alexandre Bilodeau has been doing moguls since he was seven years old. Alexandre is really good at what he does and he has a lot of stuff to show that he is. In 2006 Alexandre Bilodeau came in 11th place in moguls at the winter Olympics. In 2009 in the world skiing championship Alexandre came in 9th place but came in 1st place in the dual moguls at the same championship. In 2010 he won a gold medal for free style skiing and he is the first ever Canadian to win Olympic gold on Canadian soil.
(Alexandre and Friedrich)
Alexandre And his brother Friedrich are very close. When Friedrich was born he was born with something called cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy is permanent damage to the brain when you are born. The palsy part in Cerebral palsy means disability to move body parts. He also has some problems with posture. Posture is the disability of sitting up straight. If you have good posture you sit up fine and don’t sag in a direction. But if you have bad posture you tend to sag in directions and have troubles sitting up and standing up. The cerebral part in cerebral palsy is the brain damage part. Cerebral means brain damage and you get it at birth. Cerebral palsy gives a person disabilities and incapability’s.
Symptoms or cerebral palsy
· Has difficulty feeding
· Lies down in awkward positions.
· Can be easily startled.
· Favors one side of the body over the other.
Alexandre’s brother never complains. Alexandre said “My brother never complains about his disabilities and incapability’s so when you see someone with his condition and never complaining you stop complaining and then say I can be champion”. Alexandre also said “My brother Friedrich is my biggest inspiration”. Alexandre now supports the Cerebral palsy association in Quebec.
(Other stuff)
Besides Alexandre’s skiing career he also likes to play the piano. Alexandre listens to a lot of music but his favourite music is classic music and country music. If Alexandre wasn’t an athlete he would love to be a fighter jet pilot. Alexandre’s skiing coach for the moguls is Dominick Gauthier. Alexandre in 2006 was named the rookie of the year and he got an award.
(So what)
What has Alexandre Bilodeau done for Canadian heritage? What Alexandre has done was huge for Canada. Alexandre was the first ever Canadian to win Olympic gold on Canadian soil. Usually when people win they don’t talk to anyone they just tell them to get out of their faces. Mostly everyone but not Alexandre. When Alexandre won he ran right to his brother Friedrich. When Alexandre won he let the press talk to him and ask him stuff when most people would just tell them to leave them. So what has Alexandre Bilodeau done to the Canadian heritage? What Alexandre Bilodeau has done is win the first ever Olympic gold medal on Canadian soil being a Canadian. Alexandre also made other Canadian athletes think they can win the gold. Alexandre Bilodeau has made alot of Canadians happy by bringing them gold and then making other Olympic athletes get more confidence and bring more gold to Canada.
(What)
What has Alexandre Bilodeau done for Canadian Heritage? Alexandre Bilodeau is the first ever Canadian athlete to win Olympic gold on Canadian soil. Alexandre said most of the reason he won was because of his brother Friedrich because he never lost hope in him and always cheered him on. Alexandre is a very nice athlete who doesn't normally get mad and says good job to everyone that he faces and beats or loses to. Usually people who win a gold or silver or bronze try and run away from the press but Alexandre didn't. He let the press talk to him and ask him questions. Alexandre is a very good athlete and he is now showing it and wanting people to know who he is.
(Now What)
Now how did Alexandre Bilodeau impact the Canadian heritage? He impacted the Canadian heritage when her was the first ever Canadian to win Olympic gold on Canadian soil. Alexandre made other Canadian athletes think they could win gold and be the next to win gold being a Canadian and winning it on Canadian soil. He also impacted the Canadian fans. By that I mean he made the fans more jumpy and more energetic and the fans now cheer the Canadian athletes on even more than before.

(Things that are the same)
Ponyboy and Greg have alot of things that are the same. Ponyboy and Greg always over think things. They both also want to try to just fit in with there piers. Ponyboy wants to try and fit in to his gang while Greg wants to fit in at school. They both are also bullied by there brothers.

David Henry as Johnny Cade
Johnny Cade is 16 and another "Greaser". Johnny always gets beat up, and jacked by the Soc's because the Soc's are the enemy of the Greaser's. The last time Johnny got beat up by Soc's his friends from the Greasers found him half conscious. Johnny Cade is scared of his own shadow. I have chosen David Hery to play Johnny Cade because i think they both look alike and I think he will fit the part great.

You’re Honour
I'm here today stating the incident that my daughter was involved in. I'm her mother. Dawn Marie is my fourteen year old daughter that committed suicide because of three girls who bullied her. One week from today my daughter committed suicide. My son found her in her closet. And she hanged herself in her closet with the dog leash. Your Honour it was a fine day when my daughter hanged herself. Well it was a fine day till then. When my daughter hanged herself she left a note and the note said " mom I'm being bullied by three girls and there is no way out for me".
Your Honour I don't know what these girls all said. I know they called her names and bullied her but they probably did other things to her that she never told me. I loved my daughter very much and to make it worse my son found her and not me. My son feels very sad and lonely now with not having a older sister by his side every day. I have been feeling terrible a lot and i feel very lonely. I know i have a son at home but not having my older daughter that always was happy never I down unless something bad happen to her. But i guess this must have brought her down a lot.
Your Honour I think the right punishment for her should be jail and probation. The reason for that is in jail they have to smarten up or they will get beat. They need to stop being bullies or they will get bullied there. At jail I think she will learn her lesson easier than if she just had to have things taken away from her and do some work. Because in life that's what you are going to have to do because when you get older you are going to work in an everyday life. See if you just get things taken away from you some people don't care because they know they will get them back but see if you go to jail you will have to learn your lesson there and not just get everything you want.
Your Honour that is the one thing I ask you to do. And that is to put them in jail. If you don't put her in jail I would love to know why. I think all these girls need it because they are not learning anything. I know I forgave them but just me saying it is fine doesn’t mean it is. Right then I thought it wasn't totally there fault but now I know it is now. If you don't put these girls in jail i don't know if they will learn anything. These girls need prison to learn their lesson. Because the punishments they are supposed to get will not teach them anything. Your Honour I told you what I want not just to make me happy but so these girls will learn their lesson so I hope you will take my word.

Dead Girls Mother Hugs Bullying B.C Teenager
The article is called ''Dead Girl’s Mother Hugs Bullying B.C Teenager''. Written by Ian Bailey. The main idea of the story is that bullying can take people’s lives, ruin people’s lives, and families can lose loved ones all cause some kids will think they are cool bullying. Also even though you bullied a kid who committed suicide doesn't mean that their parents will hate you, won't talk to you, and will want to bully you back. Some parents will just be like ''it is OK as long as you never bully again''. All because of that one, two, or more girls that bullied the one girl more than 10 or even more then that were hurt. Now that you know what bullying can do I think the writer’s statement was that even if you bully doesn't mean every one hates you.

Science Lab ''The Amazining Egg''
The Amazing Floating Egg Lab
Ingredients | Observation of egg in water before adding ingredients | # of teaspoons added | Observations when ingredient added | Observation when water carefully added |
Salt | Sank | 6 | Floated | Floated on the salt side |
Epsom Salt | ||||
Sugar | Sank | 13 | Floated | Floated on the sugar side |
Baking Soda | Sank | 4 | Floated Floated on the baking soda side |
CONCLUSION
My conclusion is that the egg would only float on the side that was more denser. The reason for that is cause water is dence but not dence enough to hold the egg. There for you needed to add something elce to it so it would be dence enough to hold the egg.
Ex. Water +sugar = hold egg
Ex.Water + salt = hold egg
Ex.Water + baking soda =hold egg
Ex.Water = Not holding egg

- What do you think of your progress report? What are you happy with? Why are you not happy with?
- What can you do during term 2 in order to improve your progress report?
Yes I'm happy with some of my marks. The things I'm happy with are some of my marks are in the 80's. And that some of my marks are good but I don't think that I tried my hardest this term I thought that it would be easy like grade 7 but it isn't. When I' taking test I think that I will get a good mark. But I'm wrong. Accept for some of them where I get good marks and I get in the 90's. Some of my other marks I'm OK with but I think I can do better if I study cause in grade 7 the test were easy and I thought that grade 8 wouldn't be much harder. But now that I'm in grade 8 I look back at grade 7 and Mr.Catton said that we should of learned alot of this stuff in grade7 so I think that could be a problem for some of us because when we need to learn other stuff we don't have a long time to study the new topic we are on and then after a week of learning we have our test and that is my problem on some of my tests.
Some of my marks I'm so not happy with. with my marks I got in this report card I thought that I did HORRIBLE!. my marks last year are no where near what I wanted this year. I thought that this year I would be in the 90's and above but I'm not I get good grades in math but that is cause it is my best subject but besides that I have horrible marks in most of my other subjects that I wish I will improve on next term.

Imagine Erica, Peter or Daniel's mother are still alive. Pick one of the three characters and ask yourself, "What questions would you like to ask the character?". Explain why your questions are important to you. Tell the character what you've learned and how you feel after hearing their story. If you can relate her experiences to any conditions facing your generation, explain those connections. Describe for the character what you will do to teach future generations the lessons you've learned from studying the Holocaust.
Daniel's Mother
Daniel's Mother. There are so many questions I want to ask you. the first question I want to ask you is how did it feel Auschwitz? the reason I'm asking this question is because knowing you are going to a death camp what is going through your mind at this time? My next question is what do you feel like doing to the Germans when you seen them surrender when the Allie's came to help you, your friends, family, and others
out? The reason I'm asking this question is cause I want to no if you felt like killing the Germans? My next question is how did you feel when you found out you were free from all the horror and smell of death? The reason I'm asking this question is because I want to know what you are thinking for example I want to know if you were thinking is your family lived through this.
My next question for you is how did you feel when you found out that your family was still alive and you were not the only one? The reason I'm asking this question is because i want to know if you were really happy or thought it was a lie that your family was a lie? Are you happy that you lived through it when you were very sick? When you seen your family when you and all the other people were freed from the death camp what were your thoughts seeing your husband and children again? This question might be the hardest one i would ask her and it is how would you live not seeing your husband for years and days?
When you seen the Germans cleaning up all the bodies what did you feel like? The reason I'm asking this question is that I would not be able to look or bare to even think if that was me....so I want to know what did you feel like? When most of your friends were killed and you thought you had nobody to be with in your life what were you thinking? I want to know this because with nobody in your life i want to know if you felt like you wanted to die?
