  1. If you don't have a copy of the paper, come by my room tomorrow and pick one up. Also, 8th graders need to drop off their journals tomorrow as well.

    As far as the comic strip, it doesn't count as an article for this assignment...but feel free to make a brief comment on it if you feel inclined to do so.

  5. The article I have read is called Sibling Secrets by Jasmine Johnson. She recently had her book she wrote, Sibling Secrets, published. Jasmine has been working on this book since she was 15 years old. When she had finished writing her book she had decided to have it published. She says that during the process it required patience, understanding, and money. Her publishing expenses reached one thousand dollars, but that did not stop her , so she got a job. After 3 months paying for the book they began marketing packages. Her book is available to day if anyone is interested. You should read this article because it shows that if we work hard we can make our dreams a reality.

  6. The article I read was Chaos.This article is about two friends that were locked up somewhere and both friends made there way out.So one of the friends gave the other friend a gun to kill herself.The friends both whispered "I love you".So one of the friends took the gun and pulled the trigger.But it all ended up to be a dream.I would recommend this to ALL of my friends because even though its a dream it kinda makes you think of what you would do if that was happening to you.This was very interesting and the first sentence really caught my eye even though the reading was all a dream.

  7. The article I read was a Book Review by Jesse Young, Grade 12. He reviewed the book he read Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. This article was a little hard to understand because of the advanced vocabulary, but I still found out what it was about. Jane Eyre was orphaned as a baby; she struggles through her nearly loveless childhood and becomes governess at Thornfield Hall. Although she falls in love with her wealthy employer, Edward Rochester, her strong sense of conscience does not let her to become his mistress, and she does not return to him until his insane wife is dead and she herself has come into an inheritance. This is an Autobiography. It’s about a love affair between a 19 year-old governess and her nearly 40 year-old master. There are many themes, like courage, zeal, sacrifice, and love. There was also a lot of passion and enthralling romance between the characters. Therefore, I haven’t read this book but with this book review I know what some of the book is about. It seems like a very engaging, and interesting book. This book recommended to people of all ages. I would recommend this article to another friend because instead of going for the easy articles they should try to challenge themselves in something harder that will make them think about more.

  9. The article that had caught my eye is named" The Letter" by Angelene Dimaano. There are three parts to the story and in this one(part 3) is about a girl that has come face to face with a "substance". She was in her room and her eyes just randomly turned red. Her eyes didn't change after that, so she had to wear glasses so no one realizes anything. When she thought everything was starting to be normal she had arrived to her locker and saw a note attached to it. It was written in blood-red ink and said you are one of us now and to meet "them" at midnight on Christmas Eve. From that moment on she knew that someone was watching her and that she wasn't alone.

  12. The article I read was Mexican Pride by Alexis Wampler. This article is about Mexico. Mexico was colonized by Spain.This means that Mexicans speak Spanish . The food made by Mexico was from the ideas of the Aztecs and Spanish. Holidays that Mexico celebrates is Candelaria day and a Quinceanera. Candelaria day has dances, and a bullfight. A Quinceneara is when a girl that is fourteen, turns fifteen and becomes a woman. For example,in the Quinceneara, the girl wears a big dress and dances with a person of her choice. I would recommend this article to a friend because they could learn about a country that they are not from.

  15. the article that i read was chaos who wanted to keep her/his identity secret, so she/he was anonymous. i assume the author is a girl because of what was in the article, romance, but the bit of action keeps you thinking. it is about two friends who find each other trapped in a cage of some sort, thousands of feet in the air. there are many people trapped inside the cage all trying to find a way out. the protagonist fights his/her way out of the crowd to a corner. his/her friend approaches her and sais he cant stand to see her/him like this so he asked her to kill herself to stop the pain. he/she only does it for the same reason hes asking her to do it. they both tell each other that they love each other before she grabs the gun, puts it in her mouth, and pulls the trigger. the blood is rushing down her neck and shes falling, heart is beating and before she can feel the impact of the ground.... she opens her/his eyes and hes finally,

    awake...

  16. The article I read from the "Raider Report" is about a senor in our school (AHHS) who acomplished such a huge goal. You see, Jasmine Johnson is a typical girl who will graduate this year. She enjoys to write stories in her private notebook since she was 15. She decieded. To publish her book. However, the cost for this is. $1,000 so she worked hard to accomplish her goal. She has a job wich is a great start and is showing terrific effort that shows how much she wants her book to be published. As a teacher who shall not be named said, "The students (us) of today are the stars of tommorrow" back to Jasmine. The title of her book is titled " Sibling Secrets" even the title is intresting. Hopefully her achievments and dedication effort, and hard work will rub off on the school and prove that we can do great things if you put your mind to it and work yourself to the top. Many of our teachers push us to the top we should be greatful because, the tiny things we or our teachers do for us well turn out HUGE in the future. Its great to see what students are accomplishing in our school. I personly hope. To hear about Jasmine Johnson,and maybe get her autograph cause in my opinion she's a big a star here at AHHS. I look forward to reading her book. * hmmm that will make an excellent 3rd quarter I.R book :) - vanessa

  19. I read the article written by Jasmine Johnson. The name of the article is Sibling Secrets. It is about the book she wrote called Sibling Secrets. She decided to get the book published. Her publishing expenses was about a thousand dollars. The publishing company that she chose was Author-House. Her book came out on Tuesday, December 7th of last year. There is also going to be a book signing in our school. I would not recommend this article to any of my friends because I don't think any of them would even care about this.

  21. The article i read is called Sibling Secrets by Jasmine Johnson. This article is about the story of how Jasmine Johnson wrote her book and etc. If I were her i would have never published a book. My parents would kill me for the expenses of almost $1000. She is planing on writing a series of books . So far she got two and i don't think she can get far in life by writing books. I wouldn't recommend this book to someone because i never read it or know who the hell Jasmine Johnson is.

They werent able to stand there any more so he pulled a gun out from his pocket, and he said i cant watch them kill you soo he turned away and he said "i love you". He took the gun away not because he wanted to avoid the slow and painful death, is because he couldnt watch thoes animals tear him to piece.He stayed there and put the gun in his mouth and once he was about to pull the trigger he woke up.

  23. The article I read was, "Sibling Secrets," by Jasmine Johnson. In this article, Jasmine explains her experience of publishing her book. She explains the expenses and pretty much the whole process. Jasmine is in 12th grade and her book "went live" Tuesday, December 7th, 2010. In the near future, she is planning a book signing in the Alexander Hamilton High School library. I would recommend this to other people because it's fascinating to learn about the writing talent that some of our peers have. Therefore, I would love to read her book. Her article describes an image, so I can imagine that her book does, as well.

  28. The article I chose to read in The Raider Reporter (January, 2011) is the story Chaos, which is by an anonymous student (I want to know who is the student who wrote this). The story is all about how a person (probably the author of the article) attempts to commit suicide because of mass chaos that has happened in the fictional world. The person was behind bars with a chaotic crowd that seem to "mosh" against each other to get out of a unknown setting (possibly a prison). A friend pulled out a gun and gave it to him/her and told him to "kill himself" because it hurts for him to see his/her friend get killed by the mad crowd. He also told the protagonist that he "loves him/her."
    He/she then opens his/her mouth and shot him/herself right through the throat. The protagonist feels the warm blood flow down through his/her neck then he/she blacks out and falls to death. Then he/she wakes up. I would recommend this book to people who like bloody and gory action because well it's "a bloody and gory action story."

  31. The artical that I read was Choas by an Anonymous Student. This artical is about two characters trapped, and have no were to go but to stand their and be killed. One of the characters doesn't want to see them kill her so he gives her a gun that he took out of his pocket and says "I can't watch them kill you, please do it yourself.... I love you". Then they hear the predators getting closer and she took the gun pressed her head with his head and said "I love you". She looked around one more time and took the gun put it in her mouth and pulled the trigger slowly. She felt like everything had colmed down and that they were waiting to be killed. She felt the warm blood rush down her neck and when she was about to fall and land in the ground he/she woke up and realized that she was only dreaming. I would recommend this artical to a friend only if they like bloody and a unhappy stories. Also I would recommend this because it has alot of great detail and it is a very understanding artical.

Everyone was scared out of their minds and screaming for help. they were dangling off the ground and about to be eaten. One of the student gave her a gun to kill herself and instead of a slow painful death it would be quick. She takes the gun and puts it in her mouth, just as she is about to pull the trigger everything turns silent and she wakes up. then she realizes tha it was all a dream.

  39. The article I read about from the Raider Reporter, by an anonymous student, called Chaos. This aticle was very interesting. A group of students were trapped in a cage all going to die. Instead of going through a slow painful death the protagonist gets a gun from his friend. The protagonist realizes before killing himslef that this would be the last time he would see his friend. Pulling the trigger of the gun he feels the blood flowing down his throught. Then the protagonist wakes up to see that it had all been a scary dream. I would recommend this article to someone else in fact i had my mom read it. I would recommend it because it was exciting to read.
    I think that the commic strip was funny and the fact that he didn't notice that she was backing was the funniest part, even though it was kind of cheesy.

  40. The article I read from the January 2011 edition of The Raider Report was "A Model Experience" by 12th grader, Thomas Henson. I chose to read this article because my sister went to Princeton Model Congress, which is what he wrote about in his entry. I also aspire to attend this trip in the 10th grade, which is the earliest you can go. I learned that Princeton Model Congress is a great learning and beneficial experience. I saw Thomas Henson included the benefits and things that were tough from this trip. He also includes how fun and what an impact it makes to see how things in the political/government branch work in the real world. I realized from reading and knowing about this trip how different things are and I look forward to going on this great trip.

  42. The article I read from the Raider Report is chaos by an anonymous student. This article was about two best friends an a bunch of people trapped in a caged. These people were about to be killed by a animal. Until then one of the friends give him a gun and said to kill herself. The other person said "I love you" and then the girl shot herself. In the end the girl was alive. I liked this article because it shows that the people in the caged are in a lot of trouble and that how brave one best friend gave the girl his gun. I also like how the author did not reveal him or her self so it would be a mystery. I thought this was the best article in the Raider report.

  45. I read the article Chaos by an Anonymous Student. This article is about people trapped in a caged about to be attacked by an animal. The people inside the cage prayed and hoped that they will live. Some were to frightened and probably killed themselves. For example, the narrator who had a gun and commited suicide. I would recommend this article to my friends because they would enjoy a short horror story.

  46. I'll give you your credit Tye - but do not for a second start poppin' off about who "should be given credit" - you SHOULD have signed your name like everyone else did. I'm not a mind-reader, but I can tell you the next time you don't sign your name - you WILL NOT BE GIVEN CREDIT.

  47. I read the article called A model experience by Thomas Henson, grade 12. The main idea of this story was about him and his friends Ebere Anokute and Jesse young joining the PMC. The PMC is the princeton model congress in Washington DC. He tells you how his journey was and as nerve wracking as it seems it was pretty interesting and worth the time paying the fee as he experienced being in the PMC.For example, his first two years of PMC he served in the committee positions, one year he was a senator and this year he was selected to be apart of the presidential cabinet. He did not expect how challenging this was ,but he enjoyed the experience.I would recommend this to a friend if their interested in debates and would be interested to be apart of this.This story was very interested for me and i think someone else would enjoy it like i did.

  48. The article read in the 2011 Raider Report was Chaos, by an anonymous student. This article is about a group of people being trapped in a cage. The main character and his friend are two of the people trapped. Instead of them staying in the cage for however long they were meant to, the main character recieves a gun and pulls the trigger on himself. Luckily, the protagonist wakes up and realizes it was all a crazy dream. I would recommend this article because it tells what someone would probably do in a time like this. If they had an idea of how to get out, maybe they wouldn't have killed themselves.

  49. In the Red Raiders Reporter i found the Staffs New Years Resoulutin very important.For example,Mr.Blondel wanting to get healthier nd stay in shape. Also,Ms.Carperna wanting to wait for people to finish speaking before butting in.It shows that not only us childeren want to achieve to our high spectations,but our teachers too!!They all have something they wish to improve in just like us,weather its teaching or outside of school activities.I would recommend this article to another student bacause,it's interesting and get to learn important facts about our teachers and changes.
