Ballad Poem

SLAVERY

Back then slaves were treated like hell

The Abolitionists would be in cells

Slaves would make plans to escape, but would fail

They died by natural death, diseases, and starvation

Once they were bought, they worked on plantation

The slaves would want to go to a free state by transportation

They were named, but couldn't pronounce it

Since they didn't eat they weren't fit

They had many wounds because they were hit

Slavery was in the South

They weren't able to say what was in their mouth

All they wanted to do was stay in their house

They didn't have many rights

They couldn't be able to stand up for a fight

They wished their skin was light

Narrative Poem

Going To Middle School

Middle school was nerve wracking

I felt like this day was never gonna end

This is a new begining

Its time to meet new friends

The first thing is to find my schedule

I'm gonna have to get use to having more then one class

New teachers, more homework !

Going to my first period, lots of changes going to happen

Time for Nutrition, survived a class

There are several kids everywhere !

Hopefully I can make it through the day

This day isn't getting bad afterall

The bell has rang for the next class

Here I go again, learn

I observe what everyone does especially the teachers

New textbooks, new binders, etc.

Finally lunch, another break

Time to eat and scan for my food

Spending time with the new friends

It feels like a normal day

Time for advisory, another class

I see a different teacher wondering around the classroom

I feel more calm, that I know most of the students

Almost through the day on the first day of school

Finally last period of the day !

Learning a different subject, like usual

I see the clock "tik-tok"

A few more minutes, till that bell rings

"HORRAY" survived the first day of middle school

I meet new friends, teachers, etc.

I can be able to memorize the schedule I have

I think I can get use to this, everyday

Anne Frank- Stage Adaptions

The story Anne Frank is about a Jewish 13-year-old girl who name is Anne Frank and she writes a diary about her life in the Holocaust. Around a dozen of people live in the same attic for 2 straight years. She got her diary for her 13^th birthday that her father gave her. The whole family only gets to eat a little amount of food and have little space of privacy. Anne got along with her dad the most and Margot got along with her mom. Anne had to have a new roommate, which was a dentist name Dussell. He had no place to go and Miep recommended him to stay with Mr. Frank. After a couple of days Dussell and Anne didn’t get along at all. Peter and Anne started having dates in his room, but Peter still missed Moushi because that pet was very important to him. Later on while the Franks, Van Daans, Dussell, etc were home they heard a sound and found out that someone stole their radio and the guy whole stole the radio found out that the Franks and the rest of the people were located there. They were all nervous and when it was night time, Mrs. Frank woke up and heard a sound where the food was and she caught Mr. Van Daan eating the food. She got very upset and wanted to kick him out, because it’s not fair that he’s eating more than the other people and he never told them. Mr. Van Daan didn’t get kick out because Anne wanted Peter to be there with her. Eventually, everyone who lived in the attic got caught because of the guy who stole their radio told the Nazis where they were. Everyone was sent to concentration camps and Mr. Frank was the only one who survived the Holocaust, Anne and Margot died from typhus, and everyone else got murdered. Mr. Frank found Anne’s diary and published it so everyone can see how they lived during the holocaust.
