Emely, Autumn, and Jasmine important dates in kite history

Did you know that California has a lot of cool history. Such as European Exploration And Colonization, Russian And U.S Settlement, The Gold Rush, Statehood Immigration, Industrialization And Increased Settlement, Growing Pains And Natural Disasters. A lot right, the one I think that was the most significant was the European Exploration And Colonization. I think this because  that is when a Spanish expedition headed by Christopher Columbus sailed west to find a new trade route to the far east but inadvertently found the Americas. On his first two voyages he reached the Bahamas and various Caribbean islands including Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, and Cuba. I think this is important because if this didn't happen there wouldn't be any Hispanic countries and none of use would have different cultures we would only have two cultures. I also think this important because if they didn't find these countries then there wouldn't be different places to live so then all these people would take up the space in america and it would be uncomfortable. But as the sponsor of  Christopher Columbus's voyages, Spain was the first European power to settle colonize the largest areas, from north america and the Caribbean to the southern tip of south America.

 

 Spanish cities were founded  as early as 1496 with Santo Domingo in today's Dominic Republic or San Juan, Puerto Rico in 1508  or Veracruz (mexico) and Panama city in 1519. I think this is significant because this is telling you how far Spanish cities go back like how Puerto Rico was found in 1508 or Dominic Republic was found in 1496. Early right, well these people have worked really hard just to help us have a better world and they hardly got anything out of it so I am very thankful and you should be too because if they would of stayed in their houses and be lazy then we wouldn't have the type of world we have now. So next time think twice before you say anything about this world because you should be grateful because right now we could have been living in america crowded and with no space to hardly take a shower instead of living in Hawaii or Puerto Rico or visiting the Bahamas and going on vacation to visit your family members that live in other parts of the world. These are the reasons why I think European Exploration And Colonization is one of the most significant things that happened in California.

Autumn Paige's Plans for the Future

My group had a lot of goals to choose from, but we chose the most important three. One of our goals is the team with the least waste, if you remember from science class Mr.house is always telling us that"if we don't start limiting the amount of waste we throw out lots of important animals will die out." Such as cows and we all know e need our protein except the vegetarians they eat tofu yuck! So basically we are trying to help the earth or at least our community be a more cleaner and healthier place, Yay! lets help out Mother Nature!

Another goal we set for our group is most beautiful kite, we picked this goal because although we all know that California is beautiful place, but that's not why we picked this goal because of their gorgeous sunsets. Some people love California or think that it is know for the scenery, the sunsets just have a warm vibe get vibes summer vibes. I think that the way the sunset is red, orange and purple is kind of abstract and beautiful. 

The last goal we picked was the most innovative, we picked this goal because when people look at our kite we want them to feel or imagine like they are in California. Do you know how when you look at a sunset and you feel safe and sound, like the song were're safe and sound, haha I crack myself up. When people want them to say wow! that's so amazing I love how the purple color kind of looks like the Aurora Australis in Antarctica. My group is going to work to the best of our abilities, and work together as a team were going to make the most creative kite! Watch out the Summer vibes were're the Sunsetterz with a z and we are going to turn you down have fun everyone!

Emely Rosa's Future Goals

   One competition that would inspire our kite is most innovative design. I think one of the quality's our kite will need is a really beautiful unique look for our kite, a kind of design that not everyone will use. I also think that one of the quality's our kite will need is something people will be shocked to see or might wanna make them look at it more than once or make them fascinated with our theme. Another quality we will need for our kite for this competition is great background or history from our theme to make the people intrigued and wanna learn more. I think that if we have these quality's we might be able to win the competition for most innovative design. 

   A second competition that would inspire our kite is team with the least waste. I think one quality our kite will need is to not use too many things for our project because then we'll have a lot of waste. Another quality our kite will need for the competition is to try and use the most of our supplies but not too much that it will make the kite too heavy that it will not be able to fly. Another quality our kite will need for the competition is to be able to fly with the amount of supplies to put on it so if we wanna win this competition we have to be careful what products we put on the kite. I think if we use this kite we might be able to win this competition and maybe another one if we use our supplies wisely.

Jasmine Rodriguez Gold Goals

Wow look at me now!  I've gotten so far just by making goals and setting them for myself.  When I was in elementary school I have always wanted to be in honor roll  for more than 1 time.  I told one of my teachers and they said ,"set goals for yourself and if you achieve them then set higher ones that you're sure you can achieve." .  Now I set goals for myself and friends so not only I met my expectations but so do my friends.  In ELA my group has to set goals we can met for building our kite.  Now introducing our group goals... drum roll pleaseeee.... 

goal #1- Most innovative kite. My team picked this goal because we want people to look at our kite and say "wow that is a very unique kite and its so detailed and I love it! i'm so gonna vote for that kite!" 

goal #2- Most beautiful kite. I made my team pick this goal because I am positive that we will make our kite look flawless and people will be sure to vote for us. I mean who doesn't like the scenery of a California beach!?

goal #3- Team with the least waste. We as in my team picked that goal because we wanted to save the use of paper or plastic or anything and decided to recycle everything we are using for our kite project.

Autumn Paige theme rush! get it?

PHEW! It's so hot I feel like a pizza in an oven, what do you think our kite's theme is, and don't say Florida. It's home to the Hollywood sign,and the Golden Gate Bridge, come on, no one can get it!? Ughhh all right I'll tell you California. No we didn't pick it because lots of stars are there, we chose it because it has a very interesting past or should I say intriguing past. Did you know that in the novel Dragonwings it's taking place in San Francisco which is in California or Cali as some people call it. The California Gold Rush took place in 1849, but hey isn't that when the Dragonwings novel took place in the 1800's. California is known for a lot of things but some people tend to forget about California's past. I also want to highlight that in the 1800's life was hard because there were no roads except the occasional toll road someone constructed to make money. Also we picked this theme because our great teacher Mrs.Grate is from there, wow she is from a beautiful place no wonder she is so Fabulous. She's probably been shopping there when she was a child and meet a lot of famous people too! 

Emely Rosa's Theme of the World

Right now I bet you're wondering what is the theme of our kite? Well the theme of our kite is a place that most people love to visit or to meet celebrities or just check out the Hollywood sign. You may have visited here or not but this place has beautiful sunsets and gorgous beaches. The theme we picked for our kite is ...THUN THUN THUNNNN...CALIFORNA!! And before you ask no we did not pick Californa for the stars or because i've always wanted to go there. We picked Californa for the beautiful sunsets and background they have there because if you ever need time to think you can just go out in the sunset and think about the things you need to think about. And it would make a beautiful scenery for drama movies if you know what I mean **wink wink**. Our awesome teacher Mrs.Grate is from that wonderful paradise hey no wonder she wanted us to read the novel Dragonwings.

Autumn's Amazing live talk show!

Attention Boys and Girls! I now present to you the story of Autumn, yes like the season. Autumn was born in America, at Woodhull Hospital; her mother was so surprised to see the cutest baby in the world, not to mention with the cutest feet. Autumn recently made an appearance at the Clash of the Arts Talent show; she was a competitor and quite the young singer I might add. She faced her fear of having stage fright and her voice was a shock to everyone. She is also known for her creativity and wonderful imagination, now she is working on a blog that will be about building kites. Autumn's dream is to be a professional singer; she dreams that her name will be on Billboards and in shining lights, when she becomes famous she wants to listen to the song flashing lights get it. Autumn has a great education she is very intelligent and she is a great speller she won two spelling bees, to bad she can't spell tuberculosis like me, t-e-b you know forget it I can't spell it. She always wanted to build and design her own kite, especially with her friends. Since she is creative, and has a wonderful imagination all she has to do is draw all of that on her kite, I think there will be a rainbow coming out of her head. Kind of like that SpongeBob episode when  Squid ward  had a rainbow coming out of his head because he was using his   imagination, This will be a great opportunity for her to bond even more with her friends because she would get the chance to express her ideas with her group, and the most important part  to build a kite!!
