What my Class And I Did in Language Arts This Year

 

During the 6th grade year the whole grade and I read the book The Last Cuentista. It was an amazing book. It was very interesting and it was a little confusing. The book is by Donna Barba Higuera. The book took place in a super weird and interesting planet. In The Last Cuentista one of the main characters mentions cuentos, which are stories that got passed down through generations. This year we got to make a county of our own. You could write about a story that also got passed down through generations or you could make it about something you came up with. These stories and cuentos in my opinion are important to people because there stories that are passed down from families to your family and its an important story if its been passed down from generations and families.

A little bit after we finished The Last Cuentista we started working on our ideal world. My whole class got to make their ideal world and we got to make up funny and super cool world and words. We had to write all about what our ideal world would look like and feel like. We did this assignment because the characters in The Last Cuentista were in a weird and cool world. My ideal world was called Lises and it had floating islands and a lot of new animals there.

Another thing that we did pretty recently was book making with author and artist Peg Gignoux. Mrs. Peg makes these books with the whole 6th grade every year. We got to make plant prints and all types of things to put in our book. Inside of the book we put our ideal world and our cuentos in it. In the center of the inside of the book we have made a cut out of something to represent our ideal world or just something cool. My book didn’t look like what I described my ideal world like it had a lot of red, blue, and a little bit of yellow. It was really fun to make a handmade book this year!

Overall, class inside of Language Arts and outside. this year was really fun and was full of all of the things I enjoy. Thank you Mrs. Donnelly so so much for being so supportive, fun, and so nice to me. I also want to thank Mrs. Peg for taking time out of her life to come and make these super cool books with us. This 6th grade year was so fun and I will always remember it.

My Ideal World

My ideal world is a lot different than our world now. Some things are the same, some are not. My ideal world is called Lises. The world is great for me but you might think differently about it.

My whole world is hot and has a nice climate around  60° F to 85° F. The years are shorter and the days are longer. Years will be 150 days and days are 30 hours long. There is lots of nature and animals. You can have any pet you want as long as it’s not too dangerous and you know how to take care of it. Floating islands will also be on the planet. No houses are allowed on the floating islands though. The floating islands are there for a cool experience and there is one big island for the capital in each state.

Lises will have 10 moons and lots of stars. There will be at least one comet if not more that passes through space that you can see every year. From space, the planet is teal and green and there’s two rings. There are three other planets in the system all orbiting a moon that produces a lot of light. There is one other planet that is habitual with all types of features. The other planet is named deep blue. It’s called deep blue because it would  be underwater.

When you are actually on the world there would be no world hunger. It would be solved and there would also be absolutely no crime. If you commit a crime you would be put in jail for at least 25 years if not more no matter what the crime was. If you get sick, people will help you get medication and what you need to recover. Every child needs to finish high school and have a job when you are age 24 and up. Different countries don’t start wars unless necessary. When it gets dark outside the time will be 7:30-8:00 and the sunrises at around 6:00-6:30. Also, sunsets and sunrises will be beautiful. There’s no pollution so you can get around by electric vehicles. To travel there are electric powered planes that go very fast. Technology on Lises is very advanced from now. Phones and devices can tell if someone is trying to hack you and that triggers your device to stop. Flying cars are successful but they are only for government emergencies like the PD, FD, and EMS. 

The different holidays on Lises are the same and our planet but there are more. For example, a new holiday different from ours is a celebration for all cultures. All of the different cultures come together in their town or city and bring something to represent their culture. 

Lises would be my perfect ideal world for me.
