Music through time - Spirituals
A spiritual is a form of religious song, they were sung in informal gatherings of slaves in praise houses and outdoor meetings, called "bush arbor meetings" or "camp meetings".
Harriet Tubman created the underground railroad to help slaves escape, she created the song Wade in the water- with the secret message saying to go through the water to remove your sent so the dogs can't track you.
Wade in the water
Children wade, in the water
God's gonna trouble the water
Who's that young girl dressed in red
Wade in the water
Must be the children that Moses led
God's gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water,
God's gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water
Must be the children of the Israelite
Oh, God's gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water,
God's gonna trouble the water
Wade in the water
Must be the children that's coming through,
God's gonna trouble the water, yeah

Unwind
How do you think this story will be written? I think this story will be written in third person. I also think this will be able one person trying to do something or escape somewhere.
Why do you think the story is entitled as it is? I think it's because it sounds kind of mysterious so you have to read it to understand.
Where do you think the story will take place? someplace quiet and away from the city.
What time period do you think the story is set? 1940s

Multiple Intelligences test
Multiple intelligences is all about the different aspects of intelligence, I will include a picture of them. Just because you aren't smart in math doesn't mean you aren't smart you're just smart in something else.
A lot of people think intelligence is all about English, math, and science, and those are part of it but there's more to it, nature, music, and many more.
My strengths are 'Musical', 'Intrapersonal', and 'Linguistic' are my top three. I need to improve my 'Logical-Mathematical' and ' Bodily Kinesthetic'
