Lizzie is the beautiful one in the family, Long perfect blonde hair, Straight A student, ears pierced, little miss perfect, but what they REALLY dont know is Lizzie has a eating disorder, and once she eats she runs to the bathroom & throws up.

Poetry Out Loud

Poetry provides a powerful way to express feelings. One of the most lyrical passages in literature is the beautiful balcony scene of Romeo and Juliet. Reading the play, we hear how the characters' feelings are expressed in poetic devices and the scenery is described in poetic images.

Many freshman classes have been reading William Shakespeare's poetry aloud and also enjoying passages of good books as we share them aloud. Today we will visit a popular web site Poetry Aloud to view video of high school students as they compete in reciting poetry aloud.

The site is featured on our "handy links" list on our blogger home page, but this link will take you directly to the video of recitation. Watch these students and listen to their expression as you discover the meaning of the poetry.

Today as you visit the site, find a poem you'd like to recite to the class. Print it off and bring it back to the classroom to practice reading aloud. Be sure to find something you like, something that brings meaning to you...

Until then, adieu dear friends. Happy reading and blogging!

Here's my favorite. Visit this link to read "The Peace of Wild Things" by Wendell Berry. It reminds me of the comfort I get from nature and also from my friends Katie and Miles. Their love and their company bring peace to me no matter what is going on in the world...

Twenty Boy Summer

I picked out this book because the cover looked good. I was thinking that i wouldnt like this book but then i started reading it and it turned out to be very good. This book is about three best frirnds: Frankie, Anna, and Matt. Frankie and Matt are brother and sister and Anna is their best friend. Ever since the girls were young they did everything together. Matt never really hung out with the girls much because he was a two years older than them. Frankie didnt know that Anna and Matt always had a "thing" for each other. On Anna's 15th birthday she knew that today was the day that she could finaly be alone with Matt. After Anna and Matt got done throwing cake all over each other they went inside to clean up. When they got in the kitchen Matt looked to see if any one could see them, then leaned in slowly and kissed Anna. She was very supprised. After a couple of weeks of sneaking out and meeting up and kissing, the three of them were on their way to buy ice cream when they got in a wreck. Anna and Frankie woke up in the hospitla not knowing that happend. When they asked about Matt they nurse hesitated to answer, they knew right there that something had happend, and it wasnt good. They knew Matt died. Weeks past since Matts death, no one could seem to get over it. Ecpecially, Anna. Anna kept a powerful secret that had to be kept to her self. If it was revealed it would ruin her friendship with Frankie. Anna and Frankie were packing for a vacation. I forgot where at. But anyway, when they got there all they girls wanted to do was go and meet guys.. Anna meets this guy Will and the start hanging out everynight. One night when Will and Anna were out alone. While that was happening Frankie was at the house reading Anna's journal that had all her secrets about Matt and her in it. Will gave Anna his jacket to remember him by and then when Anna get back Frankie started yelling at her about not telling her the secret. They didnt talk to each other for a couple days and then decided they were to good of friendds to let this come between them. Anna still loves Matt with all her heart, but Will look over.
