Theme in the book "To Kill A Mockingbird"

Some major themes in the book ,To Kill A Mockingbird is don't be racist and courage. The author of this book , To Kill A Mockingbird reveals the theme of the book by showing all the problems that happen through out the book, For example, the case of Tom Robinson, Atticus standing up for him, and slowly through out the book people start to disgracing Atticus just because he his defending Tom Robinson. One lesson that the charters will learn in this book is that the more you care about someone the more they care about you. A lesson that Harper Lee wants us to know by the end of the book is never give up in what you want and always have courage in what you believe in.

To my Parnets (Parent Expo)

Dear, Mom, Staff of 339.

The biggest accomplishment I have done in E.L.A so far in this year are many accomplishment but so far I have done getting a A+ in the first making period, doing a great job that why I got an A. I accomplished a lot in the compare and contrast essay. One of my favorite unit so far was the compare and contrast essay. I think I did a good job in that unit because I was comparing Barack Obama and John McCain. What we did in that unit was write an essay.We been using the technology very much this year in many ways, like the school we have been using the cis339online.org wed site , goggle doc , goggle email, Ning.com, and as am using now Blogger.com. Technology has help us with a lot of thing because the internet is way better then writing on paper and it has help us with reading and writing, etc. My goal for the rest of the school year are, getting A+ in every class,pass to the 9th grade (HIGH SCHOOL) , Learn as many things as I can so I can be somebody in the future.
