Grade 10th

This year as the whole school did NHD it seem like they weren't as hard to me because last year I was more focus on the topic. So this year I did a topic on slavery because I wanted learn more about this topic. So when I did get my topic I chose paper again because I felt it was more easier to do and I knew what I what was going to write down. So I wrote it all down and felt good because I done my paper and it needed to be read. When it was read by my social studies teacher Mr. Ackerman and he said it was good for what I did but I need to add my conclusion and more details to my paper. What I learned about this topic was that slavey did start somewhere else before the slave trades began happening. When I got my grade I got an 85 for my paper but I should have added more things.

As this book took part in the tough times of the south side of Chicago during the 1930's were many blacks weren't being as equal as the white man. So the middle of the night everyone is sleep and tired so an alarm clock goes off and a voice goes off in a bad tone saying '' Bigger shut that off please I'm still trying to get some sleep''. So Bigger shut it off as he quickly made his way to the bathroom as got in the shower getting his self clean as he got out the bathroom and put his clothes and quickly is making his way to the kitchen and turn on the lights and sees a rat and does everything to try kill it but finally Bigger gets it and kills it and leaves the house to hang out.

Analysits: Richard Wright was point out that the it was tough during the 1930's where they didn't have big house it was just one room and you have to share the room and it wasn't alot of room to share and rat and thos kind of things will come in your house.

Adrease Armstead NHD Summary 1-3-08
Grade 10th

As my first year at constitution high school I did a project called NHD that I never heard about before and it was very hard for me to do and complete at the same time but this year will be different. Because my topic this year is about slavery because I wanted to focus on the whole tire story about some of it. So this year I hope I can do better then what I did last year. So I expect great things this year until it starts and ends during the time of doing it. Because I have the right stuff that I need for my topic and I will try and push my self harder like I have done before in my self. I pick this one because I wanted to focus on the history of slavery throughout the time during the 1700’s and 1800’s. So this year I really expect great thins for myself.
