Modern Day Circus

The circus in todays world is not what it used to be. The circus used to be something that everyone in town went to and got excited about. Now days, circuses aren't as big of a deal. But circuses have evolved into fairs, which are similar to circuses. A fair is like a circus, but with more to offer. The circus part of the fair is the midaway that has freaks, animals, sideshows, and games. But in addition to all of that, fairs have concerts, 4-H shows, vendors, food, and most importantly, carnival rides like ferris wheels. The circuses of long and today are very alike in some ways but they are different from each other.

Forrest Gump

The moral of the story in Forrest Gump is that you should live your life to the fullest and not let anything hold you back. Forrest could have lived his life differently than he did because of his autism. But he didn't let it get in the way and his life weas full of wild adventures. I think that we should all have an attitude like Forrest.
When I read this book I got a lot out of it. I got a few laughs and good entertainment from the book. I liked the book in the beginning and at the end but I didn't like the middle of the story. I thought the story had a good ending. I am glad that we are watching the movie in class now because I have never seen it before and now I can compare the book and movie and see what I like better.

YOUNG GIRL INVADES HOME OF BEARS

On Wednesday afternoon, a young girl was reported to have broken into the home of a family of bears. She is due in court next Tuesday, facing charges of aggravated burglary, felony breaking and enetering, and misdeamenor tampering of evidence. She also faces a law suit against the victims. Prosecutors allege that the girl,10, is called "Goldilocks", and her last name is being witheld because she is a minor, broke into the home of the three bears while they were away for the day. Police began recievings tips of a possible home invasion from neighbors around noon, but no officers were sent to investigate. When the three bears returned in the evening, they report to have found their home "destroyed". The troubled girl stole food, sat on furniture, and made her way into one of the victims beds and fell asleep. On Wednesday evening, emergency responders rushed to the residence after recieving a frantic 9-1-1 call from one of the terrified victims. Goldilocks was arrested and booked into the county jail on a $500,000 bond. As of Thursady, she had not posted bail and continues to be held in jail. The bears are seeking an undisclosed amount of money from the intruder to cover the cost of damages.

First Halloween Memory

The first Halloween that I can remember was in pre school. At the time, Peter Pan was my most favorite movie and so I was Peter Pan for Halloween. My grandma made my costume. I wore a green vest and sweat pants and a green hat. I also had a belt with a wrench on it to make it look like I had a sword. I wore my costume to pre school like everyone else did and that night my mom took me and my brothers, who were both dressed up as dalmations, trick-or-treating. It was pretty fun and thats the first Halloween that I remember.

To whom in may concern

It has been brought to our attention, while doing an assignment for our Film and Fiction class at the SGHS, that the book The Three Bears has not been made into a feature length film.  The three of us have read the book and find it very intriguing.  We would very much like to see it turned into a film.

We have enclosed ten pages of our short screen play for the movie as well as our storyboard for that portion of the script.  We wrote it so that not only would it be entertaining for children to watch, adults could enjoy it as well.  The book is a very well known story.  Not only have we built upon that story but we have added some action and humor of our own that would entertain people of all ages.  Many different groups of people would want to watch the movie, therefore there would be a large profit.  

Although the screenplay is still in a very rough stage, it has a beautiful flow and we really think it would make a great movie.  We would need your funds and assets to accomplish this.  We really believe that there is great opportunity here and would love to work with your company.

Sincerely,




Colten Wheeler, Wyatt LaVoy, and Branden Timm

Max Choosing Teams

I think that it was easy for Max to pick teams for the war because all he did was put his favorites on his team and the others on the opposing team. Judith, Ira, Alexander, and the bull are on the bad team while himself, Carol, KW, and Douglas are put on the good team. He started out with Judith on the bad team because of their fight earlier and since he doesn't like her. He puts Ira and Alexander on the team with her because they are always with Judith and he doesn't want to split them up. And the bull goes on the bad team because Max does not like him. Max puts himself on the good team because he is the king and he says he has to be good. Carol and KW go on the good team because they are friends to Max and he wants them to get back together and to quit fighting. Douglas goes on the team because him and Carol are friends. I think it was unfair how the teams were chosen because Max played favorites and his team had more talent and beat the other team.
I think that the bad guys in other movies are the characters that cause conflict against the main character who is always the good guy.
