A hero is someone that helps people and does stuff for them , they help other people. Hero’s are people that saves other people live, they raise money for cancer. They help homeless people. Hero’s are above the call of duty. people mix up Hero’s and role models. Some hero’s are Anne Frank, Julis Ceaser, and Terry Fox.
Terry Fox was a Canadian athlete, he was born in Winnipeg Manitoba, July 28th, 1958. He die in June 28 , 1981. He was only 22 years old. Terry died from British Columbia and died. Metastatic Osteosarcoma. He ran all the way to Terry loved sports and the later on in his life he found out he had cancer in his leg. Terry put on a marathon he ran along way. With cancer in his leg. He became famous when he started running the marathon for cancer.
Every September people run a Terry Fox run, They would have to bring in money and o they raise money for them. He became a hero to people, by running a marathon for cancer. Terry parents followed him in their car.
The reason why Terry got cancer is when he crashed from not paying attention to the car in front of him, Terry was looking at the construction and he hit the car. Terry had really bad pin in his leg, he ended up having cancer in his leg after.
4 ways!
1. He ran a marathon because he had cancer.
2. He ran a marathon to raise money , for people that would have cancer, so they wouldn’t have to go through what he had to go through.
3. He started running in Newfoundland and eneded up in Thunder Bay Ontario and died.
4. He raised 400 millon dollars for cancer.

My issue is about having a family to love and care for which everybody should have someone to live with. Everyone should be cared for. No matter what happens. Here are my five facts.
1. Everybody should have a loving family.
2. Children need to be taking care of.
3. Kids need strength.
4. Children are always welcome to be here.
5. They are a joy to be around in life.
Everybody needs somebody to love and care for. I think every child needs a family. Would you take a child and take care of him/her? I would because it is sad to see children being abused and not having a family, even living with a foster family. Most people have a caring family and some don’t. Children that have more strength are loved by parents who care about them. Some parents say “that having a child is the best thing that ever happened, and are such a joy to be around!”
Parents say kids are a joy to be around all the time. Adults sometimes take proper care of children. Some people are just being parents today. Parents should know not to drink when they are pregnant. Thats why kids are are have problems when they are born because of their parents drinking. That is a reason why kids are having problems breathing or something. Parents don’t care about loving or caring for their child. Well some don’t anyway. Most kids are lucky to have their parents caring and loving them. Like me. I love little kids, they are really funny. But some adults hate them and don’t want nothing to do for them. So I think that every child need someone to love in the world. Not being abused or not being loved. They deserve to be loved and cared for.

The end of the book was kinda surprising Johnny died. Ponyboy is in the hospital, he broke his back and he doesn’t wan to see his mom. Dally was dying, I thought he would live but he didn’t. Lots of stuff happened at the end, but at the very end it said ” Paul Newman and I ride home.” It also said that at the very beginning of the book.
I think the author S.E Hinton did a great job on writing the book. She explained a whole bunch of good parts well. She has described the characters really good. How they cared for each other and helped. Finding out what has happened with some of them. What they did. This book is really good.
Everybody is very different other then the three brothers theyt are kinda alike, in some way. The socs caused some trouble and so did the greasers. The setting is mostly at the school and outside somewhere. But with Ponyboy would be at the hospital. The characters are really different in a way because of how they act to everyone.

In chapters five to eight lots if stuff happened. I’m not gonna talk about that though. Most of the people in the book are completely different. Nobody is the same, well sometimes. But I like the why the author write the book. It is really good. I think their should be another book to it. Most of the stuff changed so far in the book. But it has got very interesting.
Some of the people run away, and maybe come back they were mad at their family they are going to get in alot of trouble now. Johnny and his friend are in the hospital and his friend is to. They got caught in a fire. Their had been alot of fighting in the book. Lots of people have been getting killed or badly hurt. Plus they would have to go to the hospital. But it sounds like that thy don’t care about anything anymore. Other then what they want to do in life. Most teenagers do things that they shouldn’t but they do anyway, like running away , not listening to their parents. Lots of teenagers hold grudges to people so they be a shamed to do things in public. That’s all for now.

For my response journal i am going to talk about the characters. The main characters are Ponyboy, Sodapop, and Darry. Ponyboy and Sodapop are brothers, everybody calls them the greasers. The boys have long hair and live on a far side of town. I think the characters in the book are really good. They describe things well. But Darry drops out of school. Ponyboy and Sodapop are characters are mentioned alot in the book. They are describe by what they look like, they have long hair one of them has green eyes. But the are also describe on where they live to in the town. They are known as the greasers.
The setting takes place on the other side of town where the greasers are and where the socs are. They each have there own side of town. it also takes place in the school hallway when they talk and have break. It took place when they were walking out of a good movie with Darry, Sodapop and some girls and other guys. Ponyboy was also their with them. On the West side of town where the greasers are they have fights with other people. Lots of things happened on that side of town.
I think so far in the book from chapters one to four is very interesting because of the fights and at school, even when they are with friends. This book is very good so far. I want to read more to find out what happens next. In the next chapters I think their might be another fight or something bad is going to happen. But thats it for now. I will be writing more blog posts when i read the other chapters in the book.

This October is going to be fun because we barley have any school and at the end of the month me and my friend Melanie might be going to a concert. We will be missing three days of school. When we get back it will be Friday and that’s when everybody has a Halloween party. Then on Saturday it will actually be Halloween. I’m just gonna stay home.
But anyways in class is fun were working on math and i am having lots of trouble with it because i don’t get math at all never did. Were done playing Children Of The Nile. That sucks it was really fun. I love working with text books and it’s my first year. I never really wanted to come to School. But now I do, because we do fun stuff. Mr.Fisher is the best teacher I ever had. I really like being in his class. I will be in his class next year. I can’t wait till grade eight.
These weeks are going by really fast. Hopefully it does for the whole year. That would be great. We are getting a new girl in our class. Then their will be twenty-nine of us i think. I am trying to get good marks this year and studying harder. But really that won’t really work.

My first 8 days of school were alright. I like being in Mr. Fishers class. I was kinda scared going back to school at first . I never really thought that school would be fun in his classroom. Mr. Fishers class is awesome. In school I’m struggling with some work that i don’t get but i ask for help sometimes. The best part is that we get to go on computer’s and we have a couch in our classroom. This is the best school year for now at least. I found grade 7 easy but it will get harder we have exams this year and i never had them before so that is kinda different to me. We don’t get that much homework so thats a good thing. Unless you don’t like school and you get yourself homework. Click here to see our class website.
