The Long Rain

Authors Note: This is about how a kid’s summer is ruined by the constant rain.

This summer was a very weird one because it rained almost every other day. If it had stopped raining the ground was to muddy to even play outside so we couldn’t play outside. Also since we had a river in are back yard it started to flood in to are yard and so we could not play outside. And just up the river there was a dam. Days of rain had swelled the river, floods threatened to break loose. So my mother told me that if I go outside I could not go by the river. So now the rain has just about rend my summer and now I have nothing to do inside.

SEAL Warrior Prediction

Authors Note: This piece is about the book SEAL Warrior and what I thought what was going to happen later in the book.

The book SEAL Warrior by Thomas H. Keith is about the life story of a Navy SEAL during the Vietnam War. The main character in this book wants to be a Navy SEAL so he joins the Navy and is told that he has to meat cretin requirements. One of the requirements that he has to meat is to have two years in the fleet. Then after he gets back from his first deployment he met up with some family friends and they were in the navy and new an officer that could get him in to SEALs training without the requirements.
When the main character got to seals training he had arrived two weeks before with some other people. He and the other people arrived at then so that they could have a 2 week conditioning class before the training. Then when the real training for class 30 started the author said “To this day I thank God that I went through the summer class, and I have a lot of respect for the men who survived the winter training.”
Next in SEAL Warrior I think that when the main character will gets out of seals training. When he dose I think that he is going to go to other trainings before he does his deployment. Then when he gets deployed he will go to Vietnam. That is the prediction that I made for this book

Dead Men’s Path

Authors Note: This is about what I thought might happen after the inspector looked at the school.

Dead Men’s Path by Chinua Achebe is about a man how is well educated and is the headmaster of a school in 1949. The school is not up to date with most of the other schools in the time. So the headmaster wanted to improve the school and he was being greedy and self centered on rebuilding the school. When he wants to get rid of the path that belonged to the tribe that lived in the aria. The path ran in front of the school and he wanted to get rid of it so he could clean up the school. But the villagers did not want him to destroy it so then when the inspector came they went and tore down some of the sheds and fences that belonged to the school. So the school did not pass the inspection.
Now I think that now that he does not have the school any more he will get fired from his job. And he will lose his family and the villagers will repair the school and have it the way they want it to be. Or they will just move the school to another location so it does not inter fear with their path. That is what I think is going to happen.
