Mini Research
In class I asked my classmates about physical education, and I varities of answers. My question was would you rather do gym or yoga at school? Many of my classmates would want to do yoga at school. For instance a student,Charnique Johnson stated,"It soothes me." Another student repiled about yoga,"Because it's more relaxing." Only the one of the students had would want to do gym in school. A student Myles says that,"Because you can get more physical activity." That is how the students agreed and disagreed about yoga and gym.

Final Draft
In the story Animal Farm the many of the charcters are very gulliable. The character are like that,but most of them are.In the story Animal farm Squealer uses several rhetorical stratagies to convince the animals to submit to Napolean's rule. A lot of Napolean's rules ar not fair to most of the animals.
One of the chracters Squealer is very persuasive. Squealer is good at persuading people because he doesn't really give the animals an option. Squealer tells animals that they had to decide to go to with the humans or follow the other pigs. Squealer tell the animals,"He (Napolean) would be only too happy to let you make your own decisons for yourselves. "But sometimes you might make the wrong decisons comrades,and then we're should we be?" Also when Squealer blamed Snowball for breaking the window.In reality this relates to when President George Bushgives the Americans two options. The options were that they either agree with,Good vs.Evil or Action vs. Inaction.
Something in Animal Farm that Squealer always does is think that there is no doubt that the pigs are wrong ever. The pigs believe that they are never wrong because they are more literate than the other animals. In the story it says that most of the animals couldn't get pass the letter "A." In reality one time President Bush thought he knew every thing about Iraq, but that was untrue.In conclusion you know what Squealer did to make the animals believe his lies. Also how these parts of the alegory relates to the story.

What I thought about the election
I thought that the election was a great experience. It showed me that if you really want something you have to work extremely hard for it. When Barack Obama won the election it made me feel proud. It made me proud because I feel I was apart of history. Barack Obama being the first African American made me happy because now that means that anyone can be president no what race you are. I believe that a change will come as Barack Obama as president.
