in the afternoon when i get to my worksite, i basically look over the children until its time for them to go to their respectable classes. once everyone is in their class i return to to the class that i help out which is second grader. mostly for the last two day i've been in different classes because of the family issues that the teacher that i help is going through.
Diamond Moss 6/28/07

Today we've learned about old and some recent robots I've never heard of. They've shown us a video of some people raceing robotic car.
Catrice Williams

Today in robotics class we watched a movie talking about robots. The movie was showing us how the robots move, and how they function. The movie was very interesting, and I enjoyed watching it. Lastly, we had done about like four or five worksheets talking about and disgusting the robots.
I thought today was a somewhat boring day because we didn't really do anything in class but watch an vidoe and do a worksheet that wasn't very exciting to me at all. so i hope that monday becomes a different experience and i know that it will because we start to really program our robots and that should be fun.

At my job site i also help the kids with writing, drawing and Drama even though i don't have an interest in Drama at all but the kids are fun to be around.

I learned basically the same thing I had learned yesterday. I think that this summer job is a little school like, and we're not in school we're at work. To me at work is not writing or doing work sheets. At my other job Randolph, what we do there is what we call work. I don't want to tell others what we do because (its not like we are having fun, we're not playing basketball all day). Oops did you read that. Antonio. S
well an afternoon for me at Argald is ok. when i first get their i wait on the kids to finish their lunch them to art class.the first group is not really that bad,but the next group is ridiculous.the little boy's think they are so grown,and they are so disrespectful.then comes the eight year olds who are so bad in their own little sneaky ways.finally at 3:00 it;s like a breath of fresh air.



brittany durr
what i learn today was adout how a race was and how would we like a robert for at harper and what are anme is going to be for are robert.
Today i wanted to finish my robot but its cool because we learned about other robots and what they could do and how they work. We also did alot of worksheets but it was cool because if we got the question right then we got a piece of candy. Thats what we did today.
LISA MARIE WALKER JUNE 28, 2007

president Adrian.N.Fulton
what I learned today was how to make the robot move n turn around. then after that i had learned how to make the robot turn around and then come back to where it had came at the begining. I also learned how to make the robot go exactly as far as I wanted it to go and then come back to the starting point.
Today i finished up my robot. it was moving its okay i guess.
6/27/07

Today, we put together much of the robot we finally put the the wheels , the motion and sound sensor together it was fun and it was worth it

Today we continued to build our robot we are almost finish. Hopefully tomorrow we'll be able to charge them up so we can see them work.



Ashley Mitchell
Today i had came a little later then usual.Then we had went to the library to go finish building our robots.Then we had went on break i walked to the store with my friend Marriah Carter and my sister Brittney Wright. Then i went back upstairs to finish my robot i'm almost done i might addd. Now i'm writing on blooger describeing what i had done today.




Lovely Danielle Brookins
what we did today was we drew a robot and told how it would help us in the future and after that we went to the computer and look at research on how to make it go straight and do other things like make it go a certain speed and stop were we want it to stop at but it was cool
Today was a good day me and Elisha are almost finished with our robot, Nebula. I am sooooooooooooooo happy that were almost finished 'cause at first it was like it was taking us forever to finish that robot. And on top of that I glad to have her as my partner because we act just alike, were both really goofy but we still managed tho get the work done. I really don't like working with others especially in group activities, but Elisha is the one person who I truly enjoy working with.
Vanee Allison, 6/27/07

A. Milan
Today was the first day of the robot program i think it went pretty well for me.

Michael Harris
I learn that robots have special equipment they need to perform the actions or sound they do.
I learn that creating a robot is very creative and it is lots of fun. And I learned how to create a whole robot using legos. Antonio .S

What I did today was look at research on how to build a robot and the diffferent parts that they have on themselves then when we finish with that we gathered pieces and started building the robot and were almost finish
LISA WALKER JUNE 26,2007


TODAY IN OUR ROBOTICS CLASS WE MADE ROBOTS. IT WAS FUN AND IT WAS EASY. OUR ROBOTS ARE ABLE TO MOVE ON ITS OWN WHENEVER WE TELL IT TO. ME AND MY PARTNER GOR FINISH WITH HALF OF OUR ROBOTS REALLY FAST. AFTER FINISHING OUR ROBOTS WE HAD TO DO A WORKSHEET ON THE COMPUTER. UNTIL MR.WINFREY CAME IN WITH HIS LITTLE SHORTS AND TOLD US TO PUBLISH WHAT WE DID. NOW IM ON THE COMPUTER TELLING YOU ABOUT WHAT WE DID IN CLASS.
Diamond Moss June 26,2007

Today in our robotics class, we've Learned how to build a robot and program it. We can speak to the machine, And touch the sensor to make it move. Also, we have that robot peices are very small and their hard to find once they are on the ground.
Today in Robotics Engineering class where we learn about robots and how to build a model. We paired in two's and build miniture robots and they're program to work by sound. First we build them, then get them up and running through the computers. Once we finished our robots we take them to competitions. I have no idea about the competition, because this is my first time in a robotics class.

Anthony Turner
build a robot and tell it what to do.
Well my thought of today's work is that it was starting to get fun once i got the hag of the lego's and how they work and by following the instructions that was given it was very clear and i enjoyed it.





Jessica Sabbs
Today In our robotics class, we started on our robots. There were alot of tiy little picec we had to put together in order to build it. It took some time but we made alot of progress today. Also we had to do a worksheet once we finish for the day.



Ashley Mitchell
today, we began to build our robots. it was frustrating when we couldnt find the right pieces and put them together right. this seems like fun (a little) and its better than doing nothing.
Jessica Bell


While today we create our own robots and learn how they did it and I really like doing Icould do this more often because its fun and exciting and better then last year.
laquita brassel
today on 6-26-07 we worked on robots and talked about them and how to build the robots i really like these classes better then the ones from last year...............
today i build a robot it was difficult but fun at the same time...
6/26/07

today we had began to create the lego robots first, we listen for the instructions on the computer
and then we tried to build tha actual robots it was okay


Emanuel Cammon
Today was a very boring day at first but then when we started working on the robots and putting them together, it was getting really fun. I didn't want to stop because I was having to much fun. I truly learned a lot about robots even thought this really isn't my thing; I'm really enjoying the Keep Kids Learning Program. I can't wait til me and Elisha fiinish putting together the rest of the robot, I'm really looking foward to it.
Vanee Allison
6/26/07

Today at Harper we worked on a robotics project that consisted of teamwork and commitment it was also challenging. It had something to do with a thing like an ipod but smarter. It also consisted of Lego but don't let that fool you it sounds lame but it kept us busy. I'm not saying it was fun but it was alright i guess as long as i didn't go to sleep.
Today me and my fellow employees started on buliding a robot,and I enjoyed
it. We were learning and having fun at the same time.In my own opinion i think this was a great
idea that our school came up with,so that we can keep our minds occupied as we get ready to go to work with younger students.



Elisha Briscoe.
Today in my robotic class at my school harper. My classmate and I is working on building a robot. Then I went down stair to take a short 15 minute brake. I came back to class and started were I left off. Until one female student came and got out of class to take me to my other teacher.
Today i had build a robot, but before i did that i ran to the store for my brake. But before all of that i had to fill out some paper work for Mrs. Parnell. to fill up my folder while i'm working for this summer.



Lovely, Danielle Brookins
Devin Beasley


Today was exciting i got to build well we really just started building so we are not done. I cant wait for tomorrow to finish it. We have very helpful people who are helping like this women Ms. Kickert (missy) she is our teacher she is very nice and she really is a good teacher i have a partner his name is dion bell he started on the first part then tomorrow im doing the other hand of the robot.
Dion Bell

Today I started on building my robot that I will be working on for the summer. At first I was very excited. After a while I was getting fustrated because my partner was surfing the net (Devin B.) and was no help. So I was really fustated. then I made him do some work and he took forever and and it wrong. It was break time and I was happy so get engerize again. So then he started building the robot fom where I left off. I started getting on a great start and it went well from there.
I'm learning how to activate a robot. Dat shit stupid as hell. Po' ass school.
Today was my first day of building robots and i actually liked what i was doing. Thankfully i had a smart partner because without her i probably would have been a little lost. I am very excited to get to the end of the robot because its getting funnier.
Today i learned how to put robots together. Luckily i had a great partner to help me with the robot because i probably would have been lost.

Today we started to build our robot. It was kind of fun but at certain points we couldn't get everything to work how we wanted them to work which made it kind of frustrating, but then figured out how it worked and where it went.
Today was actually kind of fun.we started building our robots today.I really enjoy this better than last year,it's not boring it challenges your mind,and is very intriging

Well today was a excellent day we had fun working with parts of robots that we never seen, it was a confusing but fun activity. we had a new experimental day.

The grade I would like to receive in this class is an A+. Because I do and have done all my work in your class this school year. I finish all the big assignments and projects. This school year I would not change anything in this class. The grade I would give T.J (Mr.Winfrey) is an A, because he is a cool, fun person to talk to and be around and understand student’s needs. There is only one thing you can change this year in that’s done give out work at the last day of school!!!! I like the all of books you gave out to read this year. The assignments you gave out this year were O.K not to hard but at the same it made us think. My favorite part of class was just coming to class. I enjoy ever day of this class I would not change anything about this class.

My experinces in this class were great this year. I would give myself an A for effort. I could have not gotten suspended so much to have had a better year. I would give my teacher an A cause he cool. You could have gave us less work though.

The books i liked were Nigger and Someone To Love Me. My favorite part of class would be just chillin and talking with each other. What i enjoy about class is how cool our teacher is. What i dislike is all the projects that we have to do,and the A side and B side. If you don't have an A u don't get to do everthing the A people get to do. If i could change anything about this class it would be that we need to go on more field trips.

burnetta cox


this year i didnt do to bad but i could have did

better this year but i work hard in thats all that

matter that i tryed to do my best in next year iam

going to do better then this year so what iam going

to do is do my best in work harder then the rest.

I would give myself a C because,i do my work but i always be getting out my seat and be walking out the classroom.I could of payed attention and did my work.I would give Mr.Winfrey a B+ cause even though i havent been doing my work he still be helping me out.You shouldn't spilted us up like A side and F side we should of went on more field trips.I liked "Someone to love me" and the purple book.I disliked the "Nigger" book.I liked the purple book assignments,i disliked the "nigger"assignments and the green book assignments.I liked the whole class it was a cool class and Mr.Winfrey is cool too.I enjoyed the books i enjoyed everything.I disliked the A people can do what they want and the non-A students got to sit down for 100 minutes.I won't change nothing cause it's cool.
End Of The Year Report Card

The kind of grade I would give myself is a A because i work really hard in all of my classes and I do my best. I could have had a better year for myself by keeping up my grades up in school and I try my best in all my classes.I would give the teacher a B because 1, the teacher gives out too much work, and it is always boring while doing work. The books I like was the Grammer book, and Someone To Love and the books I don't like is GrassRoots and Nigger.I did not like the tests we had to do.If I could change anything about the teacher it will be more free time o the computer and less work for us to do.
As a student I would give my myself a C. I would give myself a C because I don't deserve a F but I didn't do enough work to get a B or A. I couldn't have done nothing better. Iwould give u a A because you did a good job as a teacher even though it was boring some time. You could have gave more free time. I liked the purple books and I didn't like the green books. I disliked all the assingnments . My favorite part of class was reading s Someone to love me And Hole in my life. I enjoyed everything really . I wouldn't change nothing really but all those writing assignments




Dorletha Mables 9th period
Well this was one of my best class this year I have learn alots and it has been fun working in this class. In it was one of those classes tha you can come in work and when you get done you can do what you want. I would give myself an B and this class cause it was hard work to keep up. Because I did all the work well you can say most of the work and it was a cool class. I could have work harder and come to school more. I would give Mrs. Winfrey an A because he is a good teacher that help you. He could have cut back on some of that work. Ilike the nigga book because it was a funny. I didn't really like somone to love me because it was boring. I like the poetry slam. I didn't like the publishers cause it was to much. When we got free time to do what we want. When we had the A,B side. When I was on the B side. I would change him giving us all that work.

I would give myself a c because i do my work but i always be getting out my seat and be walking out the classroom. I could
Chonise Alexander


My experience this school year was a little shaky but I got alright. As a student I would give myself an “A” which I always had in American Literature. I could have changed my attitude so that I could have had a better year. I would give you an “A” as a teacher because you made sure that everyone understood the work that they were assigned. The points for cursing is what you should have changed because I feel that everyone needs to a least get a chance. I liked all of the books that we were working in as a class. I also like “Hole in My Life” and “Someone to Love Me”. I didn’t like the book “Nigger” because it was a long book and had too many chapters in it. All of the assignments were cool to me. My favorite part of the class was getting all my work done so that I could get on the computer. I enjoyed having you as a teacher. I dislike most of the students. I really wouldn’t change anything.
i liked the purple book because the purple book is easier. i really dislike the green books the green books really suck i did like all the assignments i dislike all the bell ringers i enjoyed every part of the class what would i change about the class is nothing because mr winfrey is the coolest teachers i have ani i think i would really enjoy him for the rest of my years here

LISA WALKER AMERICAN LITERATURE 9TH PERIOD JUNE 12,2007

THIS YEAR WAS A GOOD YEAR. AS A OVERALL GRADE FOR THE YEAR I WOULD GIVE MYSELF A (A). I WORKED REALLY HARD TO GET ON THE A SIDE OF THE CLASS. I SHOULD HAVE STOP ALLL THE GOOFING AROUND. THE GRADE THAT I WOULD GIVE MR5.WINFREY AS A TEACHER IS A (A) BECAUSE HE IS A COOL TEACHER. I WOULDNT RECOMEND HIM TO DO NOTHING DIFFERENTLY. THE BOOKS I LIKED WAS SOMEONE TO LOVE ME AND NIGGER. I REALLY DIDNT LIKE HOLE IN MY LIFE THAT MUCH BUT IT WAS INTERESTING AND FUNNY. THE ASSIGNMENTS THAT I LIKED WAS THE ASSIGNMETS OUT OF THE PURPLE BOOK. YHE ASSIGNMENTS THAT I DIDNT LIKE WAS THE GRASSROOTS OOK AND THE ACT BOOK. THE FAVORITE PART OF CLASS WAS WHEN WE WENT AGAINST THE (B) SIDE ANSWERING QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BOOK WE READ. I WOULD NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ABOUT CLASS.

CLASS OF 2009 RUN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAVE A GREAT SUMMER EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Final Bellringer


My school year was great. I would give myself an A because I work hard for it. I would give the teacher an B because he was a great teacher however, I feel as if he didn't teach ENGLISH very well or to his best. Somehow we drifted off to a reading class but I enjoyed that.

I like all of the book we read. I liked working out of the purple book because I learned more from it that the green book. I also liked when we had class discussion. I would keep everything the same.


The as my favorite class becausewe had our days when we would just do a little work and just chill and be cool. A lot of times we have a 100mins full of work but my classmates made it fun in here while we were doing the wor. I also enjoyed Mr.Winfrey's input on life. We will be talking about something then he'll tell us how we cn use that in life or just talk about something useful in life. More like encouraging or inspiring words from Mr. Winfrey

Krystal Naylor


I really don't have any experience in this class. I will give myself an c in this class because i know that sometimes i don't turn in my work but i turn it in when i have a chance. The only thing i say that i could do better is pushing myself to work harder and do more work besides doing all c work. I will my teacher an a because he always be very reasonable with the work. Mr. winfrey is always fair sometimes. Mr. winfrey could've turned down some of the work because it was too much. The only books i liked was their eyes were watching god and beowulf. I didn't like devil in the white city or macbeth. My favorite part of class was when mr. winfrey always trick the whole class. I don't like that we have a sitting chart based on who has an a or who doesn't have an a. I will change the fact that every student will sit anywhere they want even if they don't have an a.
I believe class was good to me, because i did what i needed to do, so i had no worries.



Demeisco Ford

i like mr winfrey class and i think that he don't need to change any thing about class all the thing that we done in this class will help us int he future. mr. winfrey is a good teacher and he want the best for us. i like all things about this class and i think that he should keep teaching like he is teaching now i like the books we read and there is nothing that i would lie to change about things class i use to dinn't like that a side but now i see the point of it to make us push our self to work hard and don't gave up keep up the goood work.
This class is the same from last year. Work,work and more work. Here it is the last day of school and we have to do a bellringer. This should be a day for the final and turning in missing work. The grade I will give myself is a C because I've done most of my work but, not all of the work, which is average.I did good this year it was better than last year. I was a slacker last year. Mr. Winfrey couldv'e slowed down on the work though.

Man this class iight but sometimes Mr. Winfrey be gettin to carried away with the work but other than that it's cool because Mr. Winfrey a cool dude if I could give him a grade he would get a B+. I didnt really like any of those books we read because they were boring, but I know we gone have to go through the same stuff next year.
Rodney Jelks


I would give myself a “B” overall, no matter what grade I actually got now. I slacked this year which caused me to get a low passing grade this semester. I could have come to school more but wanted to B-Sh** all the time, then when I did come I wouldn’t finish my work when it was do. I would give you a overall grade of a “C” cause you didn’t have any reasoning or understanding of anything at all like the A side B and under side. I really didn’t have any feelings toward the books or assignments I just did what I did to get my work in. You should take away the A thing it causes problems and it sucks. The class was weak overall and I hope next year it is better.
Catrice Williams


This class was very easy to me, and i liked it alot. I think that I deserve an A or B in this class. Because I was always on time, and prepared to work. What I could have done to haave a better year was, I could have studied a little harder. The grade that I would give Mr. Winfrey would probably an A+, because he's funny, intelligent, he taught me alot this year, and his class was the easiest to me. i liked the book niggar,and Macbeth. I also disliked alot of books, i disliked them so bad that I can't even name them. There were alot of assignments that I liked. And the assignments that I disliked were the newsletters, and the Publisher, because they were the two biggest assignments that we had all year. My favorite part of class were the days when we had free days. What I liked best about the class was when we had opened discussions over bellringer topics and stuff like that. I wouldn't change anything about this class because I liked it a whole lot.

I would give myself an A because I feel that I work extremely hard for what I deserve. I could have been more focused on my class work than me playing around. I would give my teacher an A because he created a system that make people work harder for an A. Our teacher could have lain of with the books because reading books on my spare time is not going to happen at all. I pretty much liked every book beside Chinua Achebe because it was very difficult to comprehend it. I could change the class I would just lay off with a couple of books.
Debra Hart


This class room was alright it could of been better. if i could rate my self of what kind of grade i would give my self a B+ why would i pick this grade because i think thats what i deserve for all my participation i put and this class. what could i have done for a better year come more often and come prepared. mr. winfrey is a alright teacher he taught o.k. i think he is sometimes better then some of these other facets techers the book i like is the nigger book that was a pretty good book that book has me thnkin about alot of stuff but the book i dislike was the devil in the white the book was complicated. the assignments i doing is the bell ringers why do i like doing them because they is easy and fun my favorite part of this class is getting on the computers i enjoyed talking in participating and this class i dont really have a dislike snd this class but i would like to change all the projects mr. winfrey give his claa.
Malcolm Carr

I would give myself an A in this class because I do most of my work and i have great attendance. I could have did some of the projects we had to do in this class. i would give you a B. you could give have gave less work and made class a little bit easier. I liked the Nigger project,and the TEWWG. I bdid not like like TFA or Devil In The White City. I loved the TEWWG assignments, and the Nigger assignments. I did not like the other assignments. I liked the way you seperated the A side from the other students. My favorite part of class was when you gave us our work and left us free. I disliked the way you gave us to much work in class this year. I would make class a little bit more less challenging. So that I can pass easily.
The book that I like was "Nigger" because it showed me how white people didn't respect us and how they thought of us. Every book except Nigger because they were boring. I like doing the project about the nusic because it helped me learn a lot of things about different kinds of music. I didn't like the publisher because we had too much work to do but, I got it done. My favorite part was when we had to do the skits. WHat I enjoyed was having an A side and the other side. I wouldn't give a big assignment like the publisher to an A student. I would put the B students on the same side as the A students because they did enough work.

Mysha Moody

The ony book you can say that I was reading was Nigger. The rest of the books was BORING..................... I never even opened the other books just to see the title page. I know the books were boring because other kids diddnt read the book. I wouldnt change nuttin cause it was boring..................


I would give myself an A as a student,because I'm the definition of a student. I could've taken every opportunity given to me and used it to complete every assignment given to me. I would give Winfrey an A as a teacher, because he takes the extra step to make sure the students understand the concept of bettering themselves in school.Make the work more fundamental and I guarantee you would have a 100% participation in class.I liked all the books we read in class,the assignments,because they were challenging my train of thought. My favorite part in class was free time.

Anthony Turner
I really didn't like this class at first but as the months went on i started to get it. i feel that out of this class you deserve to get a B because u really tried your best to do what you had to do for us to suceed in this class. You should have tried to believe in us more and i think you didn't do your all this year hopefully next year it would be better. The book that i really liked was a book called nigger because it told and taught us alot about what was happening in other people lives. I didn't like the things fall apart book because it was boring and i really couln't pronounce their names because they were african names. The assignments that i really didn't like was the things fall apart assignment cause it was too much stuff to write about something i don't know about. Domonique Fisher.

The grade i give myself in this class is a B. I say a B because i do my work and have it on time most if the time. The things i could have done better this year was. i could have been on my work and come to class prepared. the grade i would mr.Winfrey is a B because he tried his best to teach us. Plus he will teach us until we get the work with no questions. the things he could have done different was think about the work before he hand it out. Also to not give us a big project and expect us to get done in a week. the books that i liked were the eyes were watching god. the books that i dislike were the devil in the white city and things fall apart. the assignments that i didn't like were the big projects when we had to work in groups. what i dislike about this class was the A side and F side.

This year in Mr.Winfrey American Literature Class was very complex. We had a lot of big project in this class this year. I liked them too. But it really tested my ability to stay on top of my game. That led me to talk about the A-Side and the non-A-Side students. I was always on the A-side but once I got n the A-Side I stayed on the A-side. I started off on the non-A-Side. So once I got on I stayed on top of my class work.

I would give myself an A in this class because you have to work hard to stay on the A-Side and I did, that’s why I would give myself an A in this class also so my hard work would be recognized. I would Mr. Winfey an A also. Because he is great teacher but he can be a little boring sometimes by picking them stupid, boring books for us to read. He is a great teacher (even though he talks too much.) One thing about you is you have a unique way of teaching that’s the good thing about it. (Like the A-Side and the non-A-Side.)Keep it up Mr. Winfrey.

I like The Eyes Are Watching God. I Disliked Things Fall Apart, Beowulf, Devil and The White City. I liked the entire big group project and the big individual project too. I enjoyed the I don’t know I have an headache so I’m not going to think too hard about that so I’m not going to answer anymore questions.
Kenya Lockett

While on summer break I’m not to much going to miss the work, but I am going to miss being in British Literature. Mr. Winfrey’s class was one of my favorite classes throughout the whole school year. I really approved of his systems and the way he ran his class, not that he needed my approval, I just really enjoyed his class. I didn’t so much like all of the novels we read in class, some of them I loved. My favorite novels were Their Eyes were Watching God, Things Fall Apart, and Beowulf; I really enjoyed parts of those books and drawing pictures to go with them. If I was to give myself a grade it would be an A, just because I did try to complete all of my work. If I was to give Mr. Winfrey a grade it would be an A because he is an excellent teacher. It really doesn’t matter what curriculum he comes up with because he still is going to be the best teacher with the best class.
Teonna Chism

The kind of grade I would give myself as a student is an “A” and I say an “A” because I do my work and it’s in on time and I never disrespect the teacher. If I could have done anything better this year it would have to be not to complain. I would give Mr. Winfrey an “A” because he’s a good teacher if you really look at it. I mean every thing he did this year as a teacher was good. I loved reading “THEIR EYES WERE WATCHING GOD” I didn’t like the book
“THINGS FALL APART”. I loved doing my power point I enjoyed it a lot. I didn’t like the newsletter at all. My favorite part of class was when we had our class talks. I enjoyed every thing about class. I didn’t like all the work you pawed on us. I wouldn’t change anything at all.
Ciarra Pryor


This school was a very decent year ,I really liked it. I think i will give my self a grade of a "B-". The reason why i say that is because i did my work it's just that i did things that i would've done. I regret it but you live and learn.I could have did a few things different like turning in my assignments on time. I would give Mr. Winfrey a grade "A+" because i think that he did his best to make sure that we did good on the ACT to help us get into college.The only things that i would've done different is turn in my work on time to get a better grade and try to do my homework and get it done correctly or should i say neatly.I really liked the book their eyes were watching god .The book that i disliked devil in the white city. The assignment that i didn't like was when we had to write those 10 essays but it was alright. My favorite part of class was the beginning and the end.I enjoyed how he let us be ourselves even though we cant curse. I really liked how he handled class and gave us chances, when we know that int he real world we wont be able to get any second chances. I like everything except when he says "THIS IS NOT A DEMOCRACY PEOPLE". Other than that it was cool.I don't think i would change anything in this class.I wouldn't change it because he's real cool and he's a fun teacher he kinda lame at times but he's alright.
Wyzell Boddy
The end is here

If I was to summarize my experience in this class I would say it was better than last year. If I was to give myself a grade I’d say a C. the reason I say that is because I was a true slacker this year. It was a time period this school year that I just wasn’t coming to school at all, but when I started back I pulled my act together and made up what was needed to be done. We’ve read 5 books this year. We read Beowulf, Devil in the white city, Their eyes were watching god, Macbeth and last but not least Things fall apart. You can keep your class the same because I enjoyed it and I know I will next year.

My experience in British Lititure this year was an interesting experience. Iwould give myself about a B in this class. The reason why I gave myself this grade is because I kinda slacked of third quater but I brought my grade back up. I think overall that I had a wonderful year. I would give you about a B+ because you were always on point and ready to go but your class is so boring try being more creative . I really liked their eyes were watching god book. I kinda disliked the devil in the white city book. I liked the beowulf project it was fun. Ireally didn't dislike any the asignment . I really didn't really have a favorite part of class. the class was kool it really didn't affect me. the class is perfect the way it is now with the A and B sides keep it that way I think that it motivates your students to work harder and be in class more.
This year has been crazy and fun in his class. I have always maintained my grades as an A average. This has been my fun nest class and there is nothing more I could have done to make it better. If I was to grade you as a teacher I will give you an A. not only have you been cool, but you have also been a great teacher. You allowed us to learn and have fun at the same time, and not that many teachers could do that. The only thing I ask you is to stay yourself as Mr. Winfrey. Throughout this year I was only in this class for a semester and I did not like the book that was presented to us. It was Things Fall Apart. One assignment I did like was the music project. My favorite part of the class was when you will let us loose to do our work. Another thing I enjoyed about the class was that the A students were able to do anything they wanted. I really didn’t have any dislikes in this class. I just hope that in the near future you are the same with your coolness and your great teaching methods.

This school year was great. It went by fast. I would give my self and A+ like i all ready have. I would give Mr.Winfrey and A+ cause he's a great teacher. He should just keep his word.The book that i like this year was there eyes are watching god.The book that i really didn't like was things fall apart. My favorite part of class is when we joke around. I enjoy laughing and joking arounds with my classmates. I dislike the way he treat the boys different. I would change the way Mr. Winfrey act tours other kids in this class. His a Great English Teacher and his class is very fun.
the grade I will give myself as a student is a C because I am average. Sometimes I be here and sometimes I dont. I could have been to school more often to become a beter student. I will give Mr. Winfrey an A. he dont have to do anything because he is a great teacher. The assingment I like was the cash project. The assingment I didnt like was the publisher. My favorite part of this class is the disscussion we have together. I enjoy the laughter in the class. I didnt like how we had to split up into two sides. I will not change anything in this class because it is a great class.

the garde i give myself is an a the reason i give myself an a is because i work very hard to get where i am at know. the things that i could have done better was coming to school on time hand having all my work in on time . the gared that i would give this teacher is an a the reason i would give him an a because he work so very hard to get us on track for next year .the one think your could have done different was the clowning if some body is doing something they don't have any bossiness doing then put them out .and don't think about it just do and when u put them out tell them that u got yours they better get threes while it is free .the book that i like is a matter of trust and nigger .the book i dislike is a hole in my life and the reason i don not like this book is because it is boring .i like all my assignment . the assignment that i dislike is writing a essay .the end of the day when we get to talk as a whole class.the thing that i enjoyed about the class is the teacher. not a thing that i dis like about the class .the thing that would charge is the way people act the res one i say that is because my teacher play with some of the kids to much.
This school year has been a great sucess. Mr Winfrey's class was iight mabe it will be better next year. I had a lot of fun this year we did projects and went on field trips. W learned a lot about the Grammar books and it was very easy.

i really like this class because you is not like other teacher the grade i think i should get is a C because befor i had my baby i was coming to school and doing all my work.and when i had my baby everything did not go like it was. come to school more and just not get into no fight so i would not go to summre school. well you know what grade i would always gave you is A because you is the best teacher i had this year. i really dont think that you should did anything differently because i learned alot of stuff from you. i like nigger because that man was talking to us about how his life was and evreything. i like a hole in my life because he was a good boy and everything just went bad. i did not read the books because i was not here.

my experience in this class was good. At first i started out hating this class because your rules was very strict. But now this is a okay class. In the beginning of the year i wpuld grade myself at a A student, but now , i would give myself a Dbecause im not like i was when we first started.to have had a better year for myself i could have came to school mre and turned in more work. As a teacher a i grade you a A because you listen to our opinion and you do whats fair. You couldnt have did anything different (dont change).

The kind of grade I think I should get is an A. I should have showed up on time. I would give my teacher an A also. Nothing I think everything you have done this year was a wonderful way of teaching. I liked every book we read this year. All the books to me were good books. The assignments I liked were reading. I was all into the books that were chosen for us to read. I enjoyed getting a good grade. I enjoyed learning something new I enjoyed becoming friends with my teachers. To me everything about this class was good. The system that was formed for our class made everybody try harder and do what they had to do. My American literature class was my favorite class this year. I love Mr. Winfrey, not only because he was a great teacher he was cool. He tried to understand us. He tried to find better ways for us to learn. Ms Green was pretty cool, she reminds me of an older version of my mother or grandmother. Ms. Olsen is a black girl in a white girl body, she was cool also. All my teacher was cool even ms abbas. But sometimes she’s like your little sister or brother.

Well my year has been ok. I learned alot and I feel that I have been bettered by this class. As for me giving myself a grade I would give myself a D because I tried to make a effort and i tried to do better. What I could have done better is come to school and do more work. As for giving you a grade I would give you a B because you tried to help me and you made sure people did your work or got the he** out. You couldn't have done any thing else because i thought you have done everything right as I have seen. The book i liked was a hole in my life. Ididn't dislike any book.I like the freewriting assignment, the assignment i disliked was the ACT Prep. My favorite part of class was the bellringers. I enjoyed how you used to make it fun and I didnt dislike anything. If I could change anything I would change it to where we could freewrite all day.

my experience this year in mr. winfrey class was ok. i really didnt like this class at first because, he took so many points away. he took 200 points just for cussing. i felt like that was stupid. but i had to deal with it though because thst was my class. if i was to give myself a grade, i would give my self a b because i worked very hard to stay on the a side. i made up everything i was suppose to. i did everything that i was suppose to. if was to give my teacher a grade i would give him an b to. he would get a b because sometimes when we felt he could do more when he didnt. sometimes he would just give up. and we need a teacher that is going to try to keep telling us to go forth help us.

Being in mr winfreys class this year was very amazing for me i got a chance to learn about a lot of things like conjuctions and prepositions
etc. The grade i think i deserve in this class is a C no higher or no lower because i know what type of a student that i am. What i could have done better this year was worked on my behavior because i know it was un-acceptable . Mr. Winfrey was a great teacher this year so were the others but he is the only one that i am passing but thats ok that just means i have to work harder next year. The book that i enjoyed this year was nigger, the book i dislike was hole in my life. I also enjoyed the poetry slam and the mentoring program it was terrific

I had a ball this year in my american lit class. this class is really cool i like the system that mr.winfrey came up with the A side and the none A side. I think mr. winfrey is a great teacher i would give him an A in teaching because he do not only teach you things related to school he also teach you things related to the real world. personally i would keep his class the same class because there is no class like mr. winfrey class.



p.s. mr. winfrey come up with some new jokes G.
End Of The Year Report Card
This school year in Mr.Winfrey's Englih Litature class I experienced a new way tolook at things.I really like Mr.Winifrey's classes to be honest he was my favorite teacher this school year, the only thing that got on my nervse in his class was the (A) student and none (A) student system, but other than that it's been a cool year for me. Mr.Winfrey keep's me smiling and me motivated to be in class. Their was alot of ups and down in this class, but we all manged to make the best way would. The grade that I deserve in this class is a (B) because this school year I pushed myself to try hard and I know I know I could have did better but a (B) is good enough for me. The one thing that I really would have done different and better in Mr.Winfrey's class is come to school more often an on time. The books that we have read in this class was a joy because I like them all. The assignments that we got in this class was easy but fun. They were straight down to the point, college material. My favorite part about this class was when we all got our chance to share our felings about each other. What I dislike aboout this class was eveybody was tryna be the teacher. If I can change somethin about this class I would change the students.

In this lass room this year I have experience alot of things like higher ways of correcting grammer. As a student I would give myself a B after I make up my points for cursing. I could have not lost points , get suspended,and do all my work on time . As a tteacher I would give you an A+++++ because this is the first class I have been in where I can have fun and learn at the same time.You could have made the a side and fF side system more earlier in hte school year.

I liked all the books this school year ,but i did not like the book A Matter Of Trust .That book was the most dumb and boring book i have ever read.I would not change any thing but us reading that book A Matter Of Trust.
Dawayne McCauley

I really did not like this class because of the A and B side. no I did not like the books. I disliked all of them , I did not like non of the assingments , I disliked all of them. I enjoyed the conversations we had in the classroom. I dislike some people in the class. I would change all of the work we get make less work. i would also change the A and B side format.
My entire experience in this class has been extremely wonderful yet challenging. But you know I'm always up for a challenge in this class because whenever we learni somethign new I'm always ready and know it's easy so I'll ask for something that's more of a challenge for me ya know; has to be a little more comlex. I would most difinitely give myself an 'A+' because I feel since I'v worked extremly hard and busted my butt of so why not and I derserve it. And of course you already know that I will always remain on the 'A' side in this class until I'm a Senior. Since Mr. Winfrey is one of my favorite teachers, I would give him a 'C' for tryin', nah I just playin', I would certainly give him an 'A' because he's not only a great teacher but he's challenging and he' always encouraging all of his students to do their very best in his class. To better yourself Mr Winfrey, please don't get sick because when you are you don't act like yourslef, your not the so goofy Mr. Winfrey I love and know, so try yo best not to get sick. Stay the same. My favorite book in this class was 'A Matter of Trust' because I love all Bluford series books and they have the greatest stories ever.My least favorite book was 'Nigger' because it was a little boring; it didn't fit my best intrest and it was getting a little lame, too.

I really liked this school year in this class. I learned alot of things in this class. I noticed while being in this class I got a better understanding of literature. I would give myself an "A" because I do all of my work, I always come to class, and I always participate. I haven't slacked off all year. And as far as Mr Winfrey teaching us he has done a good job. I mean we can't blame him for the studenys who are failing his class. If they don't want to learn well that's on them. I would give Mr Winfrey an A+ for good teaching. And one thing that changed about me is my studying habits. I was so lazy when it came down to studying.

I would give up my smell because i would want to smell all that bad cooking be doing and they think that they are cooking something good. In if i'm about to eat something i don't know ,what i ameating i would be able to smell because my senes are gone.
If I had to give up one of my senses I would give up my sense of touch. I would give up that sense because I don't really need to touch anything because these people these days are nasty.



Dorletha Mables 9th period
If I had to give up one of my senses for the rest of my life it would be my sense of smell because i would have to smell no musty people or I wouldn't have to smell nothing that really stink like, when ig go to the zoo to9 go see the animals I wouldn't have to smell them all the way through the zoo and the farm... So that is the sense that i would get rid of for the rest of my life.

I would give up taste. My reason is that because taste and smell is the least thing you need to live with. I can live with out smelling or tasting things. If it stink I won't be able to smell or if it look nasty i'll be able to eat it because I will not have a taste bud.
Chonise Alexander

If I had to give up one of my sense for the rest of my life I would give up smell. The reason why I would give up smell is because most of the time I go somewhere it smells really bad in the environment. I rather smell nothing then smelling something funny. For instance a babies shity pamper or someones body odor.
Catrice Williams

If I had to give up one of my senses, it would be between my taste senses and my smell senses. Because every one need to be able to see, hear, and touch. I need to see what I'm doing, I always need to hear in order to live, and touch, so that I can feel what I'm doing. I know that there's no one who would want to loose there five senses, because I don't want to loose mine, but if I had to, I would loose my sense of taste.
If i had1 sense to lose i would lose my taste because the rest of my senses is very important to me and you need them for various reasons. I feel as though my taste will not really mean anything but sometimes i wonder what it would be like if i didn't have my taste or other important senses but my taste is one of my senses that i will give up if i had a choice i would pick my taste DOMONIQUE FISHER.
The sense that I would give up is smell because sometimes you don't need your smell that much unless you stink but, if someone would tell me I would just wash up everyday. The reason why I picked smell is because sometimes I don't want to smell a lot of things that stink and some people say if you can smell what you eat you can taste it and some food just sink and I don't want to taste so its a lose-lose situation.

If I had to give up one of my senses it would be smell because all the other one 's are way more important than that one and I wouldnt have to smell all that other stankin s**t if you know what I mean.
If i had a sense to lose i probably would lose the sense to taste. Resons why, you could adopted to the it quicker, i mean i need them other four because without the other ones it would be impossible for me to function.

Demeisco Ford
the five senses are sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. i would give up smell. the reason for that is i
the five senses are sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell. i would give up smell. the reason for that is i can see beautiful things life has to offer, hear the magnificent sounds across the world, touch the comfort of wonderous things, taste the goodness of lucious foo. the smell would have to go. i know when something is going to smell good or bad.

My first real Boyfriend

It was the first time I called myself having a boyfriend. When I was thirteen years old I called myself liking this boy name Moe. When I was younger I always had a crush on him. Since the day I saw him I feel in love. Then me and Moe hooked up and we haven been together for about 4 years. This was my first real boyfriend.

My First Real Fight


Many people have had their share of fights, some lots and some won. I remember my first fight like yesterday. I was in fifth grade and the girl I had a fight with was supposed to be my friend. I had recently been going to Overton Elementary; she attended the school down the street from our building. When I first got to the school, we weren’t put in the same class. After 3 months into the school year, people started coming up to me saying Kiara wanted to fight me; I didn’t understand but wasn’t about to back down from a fight. The day of the fight, I had just got out of school and was walking home with my sisters and cousin. Kiara was walking up to me with her big sister and 3 of her friends. She yelled for me to wait; when she got up to me one of her friends pushed my little sister down, I turned around to see what happened and when I turned back around she punched me in the eye. The fight was crazy and quick; all I remember was her punching me and me getting a black eye. I did scratch her face up pretty bad. I still don’t know why she wanted to fight me, I guess she was jealous because I looked tons better then her, and the boy she liked wanted to go with me. After that fight I tried to be ready for my next.

I remeber the first time i smoked a blunt. The first time I smoked a blunt was kinda funny. It felt like the world was shakin'. I started to get dizzy and very slugish I thought that i was moving very fast but i was really moving very slow. After awhile I began to feel very hungry so i got me a meal from the restaurant and then i wnet to the crib for some sleep.
The thing i remember the most for the first time is when i got arrested. It was my freshmen year and i was walking through the metal detectors. when i got to the other side my book bag didn't get checked yet, so i grabed it. The policman stopped me and put his hand in my face. "Don't put your hand in my face," i told him. The next thing i know i was on the table with handcuffs on getting driven to the police station.

This is how it went I was four days before my due date and it was 8:30 in the morning, and i had a contraction so i layed down to time it and i had another one at 8:35. And that one hit me harder than the first one so my little niece went and called my auntie in the room and she was like I think she is in labor. I got up to but my clothes on and grabbed my bag and we went outside. No car so I put my bag in the house and walked up and down the street until the car came. When i got to the hospital the nurse checked me and told me I was 2 centimeters and they might have to send me home. That was about 10:30 and i got in the hospital gown and about 1 hour later she came in to check me again now I was 4 centimeters. they gave me something to "speed " it up a bit. By 6:00pm I was pushing and by 6:25 i had my son Darion on the fifth of February.

I remember the first time I received my own cell phone. It all started when I was in eighth grade. All of my friends and my classmates were walking down the hallway talking on thier phones. And when it was time for us to go home I would see everybody talking on their phone outside. I felt left out and I felt like an outcast. I wanted a phone very badly. I begged my mother and my father to buy me a phone and they kept promising me one but I never got it. In the begininng of my freshman year my mother finally took me to go get a cellphone. I was so happy! She felt that I deserved it because I wanted a graduation gift and I never got it. Plus I get good grades. From there on I had my own cellphone. When someone was on the house phone I didn't have to wait on them to get off

When it came i ask my parents what was we going to for my b-day they said nothing. So then it was dinner time tme, we went to Mcdonald on 115th street and halsted. When we got there i thought that we was just eating and leaving but instead my parents throw a surprize birthday party for me. Next they told me to close me eyes and turn around. When i turn around it was Ronald Mcdonald i was scared out of my mind i was ready to go. i didnt even want to stay for the party, thats how mad i was. When the party was over they wanted me to give him a huge but i couldnt to it thats how scared i was. I left the Mcdonalds mad scared, frightend, and i was the worriesed birthday party ever.

My first day of high school, I was very scared because, I really
didnt know anybody except my bestfriend and some of the people
I went to grammar school. When I used to walk through the hallways
people they use to just stare at me and I felt really scared cause I thought
they was about to just run up and hit me. Now everybody knows me
and Iam cool with most of them and I guess that since Iam a sophomore,
I have aand know more people then I did when I first came to harper.
If I was to compare myself to some kind of animal Iwouldcompare myself to a lion because with a lion he's king ofthe jungle and he doesn't like when people disrupthis territory and when ever he goes to get hisprey he goes after it and he's not done till he's done.Now the comparison, with me I feel my territoryis what I'm king of- my feelings, my space basiclymy life. Also I hate when I'm cool ya know notmessing with people and there's always someone disrupting my area-(territory),but whenthat person come starting stuff I go out and reclaim what's mine or I do like the lion andgo get my prey and I'm not done till I'm done.

My first game

I remember when I had my first basketball game. I was 8-years-old
and I was only 4 feet tall. My coach was saying that I have things thats
inside of me. I never knew what it mean period. So when I had my first
game, I was in grammar school copernicus and we was going against maze
grammar school. So I wasnt starting five, I was like the sixth man. I was
playing point guard. So the game started. Maze got the tip-off. The game
was going good, but I wasnt thinking about the game, I was thinking about
what my coach was saying to me, "you have things thats inside of you. My
grammar school was losing and it was the 4 quarter. My coach put me on
the floor and said to me remember what I told you. When I got on the floor
some dude push me and stolen the ball. I got really mad and took good
advantage and I was scoring points left to right. I was stealing the ball,
and I was grabbing rebounds like crazy. When we won the game, my
coach asked me did you find what was inside of you? I said yes, Iam
a beast!
The first time I remember was my first time going to six flags. I was so scared because all those rides was so big and scary but I got on some rides that wasn't so scary. The best thing about going to six flags was that I was able to see tweety my favorite character .

It was last year in June or July. I was going to Great America with my cousin and his family. The pervious night was the first time that I had ever smoked. I smoked because I was inquisitive about it. It was me, my cousins, and about 3 more friends. We were smoking a Black and Mild. This event occurred at like around 1 Am. We were in the alley and I recommended that we should go somewhere that’s not in the open so I or we won’t get caught doing it. We went into this random backyard and I was a diminutive scared that somebody probably lived there and they might come out and get us. I enjoyed that whole moment. However, it left a bad taste and I hated it. I tried everything to the taste out of my mouth but it kept coming back. I feel like it was a waste of time but the best waste of time.

I remember when the first I went to six flags for a graduation trip. My classmates and I had a ball everytime you seen us we were either cutting lines or we were already on the ride. One time it backfired on us because this white called security on us an we had to run into a huge crowd so the couldn't find us. We were making our own cd's that was the funiest part because people sounded so funny when they were getting recorded. We left six flags around ten o' clock by time we got to the school its was eleven o'clock.
