- Well, first on the list, is, always obey Mrs. Robins, for the thing that makes you disobey gets taken away, and if you continue to disobey, there will be consequences, and you will be on dangerous ground for the rest of the year. If you get on Mrs. Robins bad side, make sure that if you walk into a potentially dangerous situation, (Like if there is a line outside her room) Always let the ladies go in first. Why? Because it is polite, and everyone says Ladies first! (Obviously)
- Second is that you should never yawn visibly, this makes it look like you’re tired, which of course we all are, but unless this yawn might make you cry, you should never yawn like a hippo. But you should always cover your mouth when you sneeze, for your sneezes can spread germs quickly and it is kind of nasty for the person sitting next to you. This goes for coughing as well.
- Third, even if you feel Kind of crappy, or that goes to say, very crappy, always look like you are having the time of your life, because it impresses your crush. Unless your crush is not in your class, you can just kind of take a nap, with your eyes open while sitting up, and still pay attention. (No, you would obviously take a nap later)
- Another thing is that at the beginning of the year, you will learn that if there is an emergency where you need to get to the bathroom to toss your cookies, you take the trash can with you. But if you find that you are in a situation where you had found that you have something called Montezuma’s revenge, and you don’t think you can make it to the bathroom, I think you’d want to take the trash can for your loose stools.

Ending Revision to "Tuesdays at the Castle"
Celie heard someone screaming, vaguely recognizing that it was her. She had never realized that Rolf's dare would come true. Suddenly she jerked to a stop. The emissary had managed to recover enough to grab her hair. Fire spread across Celie's scalp. She couldn't scream anymore despite the pain. She hung helplessly. Then out of nowhere a great blast of purple came shooting at the emissary. He disappeared with a puff. Celie realized that it was Bran. She dropped, then landed on soft stones and slid. She looked up. She had landed a few feet from her family. Then everything went black.
The sobbing was what woke Celie up. She was in her bed. Her father was talking with the other royals. Her mother and Lilah was by her bed. Her mother was holding her hand rather tightly. Lilah was the one sobbing. "Li-Lilah." Celie's voice was rather raspy. Lilah gasped. "I am so sorry Celie, I should have stopped you." Celie's gaze had moved on. She smiled at her Mother. King Glower came over. "Hello, Celia-Delia." He sang. "Daddy. What happened?" Her voice was scratched. "We had to hide. I am sorry we didn't come back sooner. We were risking coming back when Pogue found us. We nearly declared war on Vhervhine. But I managed to be persuaded." He said with a crooked smile. "Thank you for taking care of everything here while we were gone." Rolf grunted. Celie felt so tired.
"I think that we need to let Celie rest." Bran came over and adjusted her pillows. He ducked down and gave her a kiss on her forehead followed by the rest of her family. Once they were gone, Celie reached out. her fingers brushed the warm stones of the wall. "I am so glad your back. Your my family too." In response, a warm ripple ran across the stones. Celie felt like it was saying, "I won't leave again. I will always stay."

The Top Ten Things About Mrs. Robin's Class, Hadley Arnold P.6
- Mrs. Robins. She is without a doubt the most incredible teacher I’ve ever had. She is encouraging, helpful, kind, and hilarious. Yet, she won’t be afraid to get on top of you for not getting work done. She also never fails to show how proud she is when you do well. Overall, she is an amazing teacher.
- iRead Program. Although it requires some effort, it is definitely worth it. The program allows you to expand your reading skills. Because I was required to read different genres I was able to find new books that I really enjoyed. Also, you don’t want to miss out on the iRead party at the end of the year. Honestly, just the feeling of completing the program and the praise you get for it makes all worth it.
- Blog Posts. The blog post that is due at the end of each month improves your writing immensely. Mrs. Robins always makes the blog posts on a subject that is fun and easy to write about. Peer comments are very helpful and made me a better writer.
- Writing Contests. Writing contests are usually on a simple subject and even fun to write. When you write one for Scope Magazine, you will win a prize and Scholastic writes you a letter complimenting you on your writing. If you try your best, you have a much higher chance of winning. I won one this year, and it was definitely worth the work.
- Class activities. Sometimes in class, Mrs. Robins had incredibly fun lesson plans. One time, we went outside and had a race to practice ACES and OREO foldables.That’s just an example of the many other classes we spent having fun while still learning. As long as you always have a positive attitude, you’re insured to have fun in class.
- College Field Trip. We went on a field trip to the college. It was so much fun. We took a tour and got to sign a book that is part of the cloud in the library. We learned all about the college and where to find sources, plus it was nice to get out of school. There were also some super cute guys! Haha!
- Class reading. This was a very fun part of class. We read Wednesday Wars, A Long Walk To Water, and The Giver. All were amazing books, and it was fun to discuss them with the class.
- Teams and Team Flags. All of the tables I sat on were full of great students and were easy to work with. It was also very fun to make team names and the posters.
- Essays. Although it may not sound fun, they really were. Mrs. Robins gave us interesting things to write about and I think I became a much better writer because of it. She also had contests to see which period would have the most turned in on time. If you won, you got to have some sort of party/treat.
- Movies. After we read A Long Walk To Water we compared it to the movie The Good Lie. We also watched The Avengers after we finished our Superheo essay. After reading The Giver, we also watched that movie. Watching the movies and comparing them to the books was very enjoyable.
In conclusion, this year will be amazing. Remember to keep on top of your work and always put in your best effort! Be kind to your classmates and have a positive attitude. Good luck, have a great year!

Top Ten Things (what you need to know about Language Arts)
Before reading this list it is important that you know how fun the next year will be, while arduous at times, Mrs. Robin’s is a great and teacher and is one of the very best so consider yourself lucky.
- Keep a good attitude. Regardless of your writing capabilities, with a good attitude every challenge will seem a little less daunting and this class will become funner.
- Work hard. With a good work ethic and a determined mindset anything is achievable, don’t forget that.
- The key to success is to not procrastinate. At times I waited until the day an assignment is due, while for the month that I was blowing the assignment off I was happy, when it was due I was extremely stressed and always realized it wasn’t worth it.
- Be prepared, I personally am not a great example of this, having to often ask a friend for a pencil. However, despite me being bad at it, you can be good at it so remember your stuff.
- There will be lots of drama, I mean it’s 7th grade for crying out loud. Nonetheless don’t take part in it and if you do then just know that further down the road it will all seem meaningless.
- Stay on task. This is similar to the “Do Not Procrastinate” thing but what the heck, it’s still important. In class it’s easy to get caught up in some game, in my case Slither.io or Agar.io. It’s important while on computers to do your work and not waste time. Time is precious and should be used wisely in class so that you have little or no homework; in my case I usually worked diligently and almost never had homework.
- Don’t judge others, there will always be others who are different. Keep an open mind and treat them fairly and justly.
- Don’t be rude to your classmates and try to ignore the impulses that tell you to be a pain in the butt for teachers and fellow students.
- The year that ensues will be great and jam packed with fun.
- I’m really running out of things to say now other than good luck, your time at Lava Ridge will be great.

How to brave the dangers of Honors Language Arts
- Some of the things that you need to know to brave the dangers of Honors language arts is, always be ready to learn and be happy. Always express appreciation for all that your teacher does for you. No matter what you may be doing, your teacher spent time on that, and that assignment is your grade, so you better do it well.
- Another thing that you will need is to always need to know is that although sometimes it may be hard, and the assignments may be tough, continue on, for the rewards are fabulous! And it is also rewarding to see yourself become a better writer, and see the benefits of what you have learned.
- Third, is you should always turn your work in on time or a soon as possible, this is also brings you rewards as well for it takes the stress off your shoulders.
- Also, always pay attention, this will help you know what is going on in class, and will help you stay caught up, and may help you with a potentially hard assignment. Always paying attention will help you keep that A on your grade.
- Fifth Never procrastinate. This will is something that I dislike about myself, and Trust me, you don’t want to get into the habit of procrastinating.
- Sixth. Always be polite, in all that you do, this shows that you care about the way that you treat others, and this will also prompt others to treat you with the respect that you deserve.
- Missing work, and absences. When you may be absent, and when you look on your grade, and you find that you are missing some work, always quickly do that assignment, for you may lose points for being late, and when you quickly get this done, you’ll find that you will not have as much stress or pressure looming over you.
- Helping others. Always be willing to help others, not cheating, but if they have a question on how to do a small task that will help them on an assignment. This will help you if you will ever need help in a tight spot, for other people will be willing to help you when you have helped them in the past.
- Read all the way to the iread 40 club! This will be extremely rewarding at the end of the year, and you’ll feel extremely disappointed otherwise. Read all your genres. Trust me, I know.
- Another thing that will make you feel more comfortable, is that you are in a room full of people that are just as smart as you are, this will give you a extremely stimulation conversation. This will also help you do better on assignments, for if you are working as a team, you may get an idea from something one of your team members have done.
