Shakespeare: Taming of the Shrew

I enjoyed participating in this workshop it was a good break from working on our computers, and it was also a good way for our class to bond. I learned that the title of the the story makes sense because a shrew means a wild animal that is hard to tame. Before I learned anything about this story I thought a Shrew was a type of mushroom so now everything makes way more sense. I learned that the story is about two sisters and one is really nice and one is mean. The father won’t let the youngest daughter get married until the older daughter gets married. There are lots of men who want to marry the youngest daughter and not many who are willing to marry the oldest daughter because she is hard to tame. When the oldest daughter gets married her husband locks her up and doesn’t feed her because he is trying to tame her.

Math 9 Midterm Review: Surface Area

Question: Jerrys bedroom is square. He has a desk in his bedroom which has an area of 10000 cm2. The area of the bedroom is sixteen  times the area of the desk. What is the side length of the bedroom.

My First Answer: 10000 x 16 =160000/2 =80000

Correct Answer: Instead of dividing 160000 by 2 I should’ve found the square root of 160000=400

Question: What is the total surface area of the rectangular prism. 3a, a,2a.

My First Answer:

(2a x a)  + (3a x a) + (2a x 3a)

= 2a2 + 3a2 + 6a2

= 11a2

Correct Answer: Formula 2(wl + hl +hw)

=2(2a x a) 2(3a x a) 2(2a x3a)

= 4a2 + 6a2 + 12a2

=22a2

Junior has  had a pretty hard life for a teenager, ever since he was born he has had struggled with brain problems but he has worked harder than ever to be were he is now. It all started when Junior decided to take the leap and leave his school, by leaving his school a lot of problems have occurred.  Page One

 

 

 

Junior and his former Best friend Rowdy will now be playing each other in tonights game! Junior is feeling sick and before the game starts he throws up like usual, we ask him why and he tells up he is a yucker.  Page 2

 

 

The coaches pep talk is pretty intense and everyone on the team is extremely nervous for this game. Junior and Rowdy played each other before and it didn’t end well, Junior had to go to the hospital because he got knocked out and he had to get stitches. Page 3 

 

Tonights the night! Game day has come! Can Junior prove that he can beat Rowdy? Before the game starts things are really tense, Junior and his team are feeling nervous but that doesn’t stop him from playing his best. Junior and his team want to win this game more than anything and they wont quit until they get the job done.  Page 4

 

The game has started and the ball gets passed back but, Rowdy is fast and he intercepts the ball, his eyes light up he is thinking that this is his chance he can shoot and prove to Junior that this is his game! Junior is furious he will not let this happen he races back he has never sprinted harder, he sees that Rowdy is getting reading to dunk but Junior wont let that happen he knows that Rowdy will Jump but Junior knows that he will have to jump even higher to  be able to block Rowdy. page 5

 

Never in Juniors life has he ever won against Rowdy but this is Juniors moment. Junior jumps up so high he blocks the shot and steals the ball he dribbles as fast as he can to shoot at the three point line he head fakes  and he scores! He looks up to see his parents his mom has fainted and his Dad kissing and hugging he guy next to him. This is when Junior realized this is his game. Page 6

 

After Junior scored the game is still intense, this could be the hardest game they have played everyone on the team tried their best and they won!! Page 7

 

 

 

Junior is still wondering how his relationship with Rowdy will be like after this game, but Junior is so ecstatic and full of joy after winning this tough game.  page 8

 

Editorial 

Junior deserved to win this game more than anyone and I am so happy for his big win. I think this is something Junior and Rowdy will always remember and hopefully they can still be friends. I think after winning this game Junior will have a lot more confidence in himself and it will effect his life for the better. Page 9

For this project my group worked very well together, everyone did what they said they were going to do there was no one who shot down others ideas and we all worked well together. If I were to do this project again I would ask m group if there is anything extra I can do if I can finish early. I should’ve asked if I could’ve helped them. Overall this project went well and there was nothing that was confusing about the project.
