Sep. 28th, 2005 06:43 pmthe spider's web is gone. I guess dad knocked it down.
The cold front that was supposed to meet hurricane rita is FINALLY making its way down. c'mon cool weather!
I'm going to ask mrs. garza tomorrow if I can get my grade any higher in her class with accelerated reader, if so, I'm gonna take a test on The Listeners, by Christopher Pike. Right now, I have like a 113 for AR because watership down was worth 44 points and I only needed 25.
The Listeners is one of pike's more out-there books. He should've stuck with writing teenagers; this book is 400 pages of pseudo egyptian lizards. but that's what I expect from him xD
You get points in AR depending on how many questions you answer right on the tests. the hardest test I ever took was in like seventh grade on some non fiction book on native americans before columbus. that was one boring book, and i got a 70% on it.
Apparently only one person has passed the test on Les Miserables, rachel francis' brother (rachel played trumpet in band and graduated last year, she's one of tisha's friends, and her brother is weird, from what I've heard xD he graduated several years ago). Interesting the things you learn when your librarian teaches you french.
but yeah, my english grade is 99 right now. That's a lot better than the 94 it was before, or there abouts, I forget exactly.
So, if there's a point cap I've reached, I'll wait until after october 5th (ar deadline) or ask mrs. cioppa if I can take the test and have it count for next nine weeks.
if not, more points here I come!

Date: 2005-09-29 12:04 am (UTC)Now it's a part of our grade and we have twenty minutes a day set aside for "reading".
[un]fortunately, mine is with a teacher that is rather naive, so sometimes I finish other homework and sometimes I'm annoyed when I can't concentrate 'cause everyone's talking.
why did I have deja vu typing this? have we discussed ar before? :OOOO
