The holocaust reflection.

 We've been on this topic for awhile now what human rights are what is the holocaust?. We've done all different activity even learnt how to make my own podcast. We had to watch plenty of videos so we could get answers to questions. It was really difficult at times just trying to get all of it done in the time given. What was easy? I would say none of it when your starting something new its never easy only if you've done something similar to it. well thats what i think anyways. Whats something i learnt? is that without Cyrus the great there would still be wars in every country to this day.

The Outsiders by S.E Hinton.

 The book, The Outsiders is about gangs,stealing and friendship. Johnny that have been treated terribly by his family and couldn't lean on anyone but the people that are in the gang. Darry, Soda and Ponyboy's parents died in a car crash and therefore have nobody but each other to rely on.

The idea of a person being deemed an outsider makes me feel relieved that I don't feel this way.

Reading what they were brought up around with violence from the people that are suppose to love them, not hit them made me feel sad. It shocked me that they couldn't even walk outside without a blade in their pocket because they might get jumped. I'm relieved that Johnny didn't tolerate his parents' behaviours anymore because he could depend and rely on their friends in their gang instead. I think parents should look after their kids and treat them with love and care.


Something which shocked me in the book was when Cherry and Marcia were actually nice to Greasers even though they were Socs, they didn't judge Johnny and Ponyboy only Dally but it was his fault that he was treating them with disrespect. I think if you want peoples' respect you must be kind and respectful to other people.
