I am writing about CORE because there is nothing else to write about.  In CORE class we are finishing a unit on the Roman Empire, specifically the fall of it.  To me this was an interesting topic, because I like studying the ancient civilizations.  Now we are doing another unit on the Muslims and the Islamic World.  The Muslims were the ones who conquered the Goths who had conquered Rome.  We will be reading a book called Shabanu, Daughter of the Wind, which is about an Islamic girl and her family.  Other than that I don't know anything about the book becaus ewe are not starting the book until tomorrow.  In the English portion of CORE, we have read three short stories from our reading book.  They were called "Names/Nombres" by Julia Alvarez, "Seventh Grade" by Gary Soto, and "Thank You M'am" by Langston Hughes.  These were all good stories that I liked. So far I am having a good time in CORE class and I hope it stays that way.
