Math song lyrics

One Block, two Block, three Block, four Block,
All I see is bricks fall, This is where the fun stops
Sticks are down, on the floor
Get the hammer fix the door,
This is like Jersey Shore,
Somebody needs Math more

Bob builds buildings with bricks,
He also uses some mix,
And he even uses his tricks.

This wood is 4 by 4
Its the area for the perfect door
Maybe i can use it for my store
Because it matches with the floor

One Block, two Block, three Block, four Block,
All I see is bricks fall, This is where the fun stops
Sticks are down, on the floor
Get the hammer fix the door, This is like Jersey Shore,
Somebody needs Math more

Why is this happening
I cant explain
This is making me insane
Its like a rain of pain

2 by 2 is a perimeter of eight
This is super great

Then comes the height
Its as high as a kite
And i feel quite bright,


One Block, two Block, three Block, four Block,
All I see is bricks fall, This is where the fun stops
Sticks are down, on the floor
Get the hammer fix the door, This is like Jersey Shore,
Somebody needs Math more

The Worst Poem Ever

Politics positvely pospone life,
Is as bad as a angry wife,
politicians steal and lie,
and gives the sensation that you will die,

politics, politics, politcs, I hate you so much,
and boring as a monday brunch,
ahh!! politics make me scream,
But you cant do anything because they own the regime


Politics are the heaven of government,
More than a billion people work there,
And the leaders are billioners,
And luckly I dont work in there.

This is politics!!

1.Juan Manuel Triana- The Hunter

Juan Manuel, I like your literary devices because they are really complete and I can understand it.I also liked the way that you put it in your own words so that I can see your perspective of the book.

2. Mariana Romero- The boy in the Striped Pijamas

Mariana, I think you did a great job on your literary devices, and I think that it was a really well done job. The only part you could improve would be to explain a little more.

Rachel,I really liked how you explained everything very clearly and how you explain everything in a way that you want to make me read Fever.

Examples of literary devices in Hunger Games

  Flashback: A example of a flashback in the Hunger Games could be when Katniss and Peeta are in the Hunger Games in a cave and Peeta tells Katniss about the first day of school when Peeta was in love with Katniss and what happened all day.
Another example would be when Katniss remembers the times when her father just died and that she was really poor and her mother was extremely sad.

Foreshadowing: A foreshadowing event in the Hunger Games would be when Prim gets chosen to go to the Hunger Games then Katniss starts thinking "this can't be happening, I have to do something" at that moment I could predict that Katniss would volunteer for her sister.

Symbolism: Katniss retresents the hope of the people that don't like the capitol.

Atmosphere: The whole Hunger Games arena gives me a feeling of killing.

Plot Twist: A plot twist in the Hunger Games is when Katniss wins the Hunger Games.
