What my grade should be

            Grades, grades are what makes a person succeed in life or fail but more importantly it can affect sports. Sports are a major part of my life and I always try to succeed in those and my grades. The grade I think in this class should be a B because I have learned a lot in English and I want to prove to you that I am just as successful in the classroom like I am on the football field.

I know that maybe you think that I should have a C in the class because I don’t participate in class enough or maybe that I don’t do all my blogs or don’t do them on time. But there are many pluses of my work in class and I will tell you why.

This year in English there has been a lot of stuff I learned and some of the stuff I learned I know I will use in future classes and in life.  One thing I learned was MLA formatting. MLA formatting is when you put citations which are your name, the person who wrote the section, the subject, the website, the date. This is very important for citing books, news stories, and other stories that need to have credit in your paper. MLA formatting is very important because I will be using it for the rest of high school and throughout college. Another thing I learned it TPFASTT which is used for poems and other writings.  The steps for TPFASTT it title, paraphrase, figurative language, attitude, shift, title, theme. TPFASTT helps with understanding the meaning of songs, poems, and stories. How I could use this in life is I could use it to understand my favorite stories and songs and use it in school with poems.

My work in English is important to me like my effort and work in football. In football I put 110% in all my work, blocking, and running, and learning my plays. Same goes for English I put 110% in studying and learning all the stuff in English.

English this year has helped me with many things and I have learned a lot of things and hoping to put all my skills I learned this year into the future. But the main question is do you really want to fail your future star right tackle?

villanelle by Tyler Moffat

Here comes number 53 Moffat
All the lights brighten the night
Time to become a legendary tackle
All the trainging throughout the week foer the game
The team running on the field announcing names
Here comes number 53 Moffat
Hearing all the fans cheering on the team
All the streches are done time for the game to start
To become a legendary tackle
Kickoff is done time for the team to start
First play is called time for the team to set up
Here comes number 53 Moffat
Have to hold the block to run out the clock
With the good block the run was a stunner
To become a legendary tackle
With a pancake block theres no more time on the clock
Touchdown scored with all the players adored
Here comes number 53 Moffat
To become a legendary tackle

sonnet

what would your plays be in overtime?
Bam! there goes the kick
Man that tackle was sick
Time for over time to start
first play is called and the players do there job
the linemen block and make a pile
Quarterback throws and 20 yards gained
Another pass and a 40 yard gain
the pressure is building up
one more play before a field goal
Bam! there goes the ball
defense gets the ball running running
Game flashing in front of the coaches eyes
Touchdown, game is over defense did their job

Caesar paper

Dear friends,

It is i Julius Caesar and i have grave news that i am dead. I was betrayed by my friends and am going to give you advice about friendship. One is to always have trust in your friends because you never know what will happen with your fate. The second is to always never be to close to someone because they could betray you.

Brutus my dearest friend thought that trust is a huge part in a friendship and that being trustworthy is a great deal. I disagree because to have friends or a relationship you must have trust and that is what i did but got betrayed by my dearest friend Brutus i was so sad by this i said (“et tu Brute?”II 77). Trust your dearest friends because they can always help you in the time of need. If you need advise of wisdom friends can always help. So remember that trust is a powerful weapon.

My second word of advice to you dear friends is never get to close to someone personally or they could betray you. If there is a very good friend or someone you like you can care for them and love them but never put you full heart into them because they could betray you. me dear Anthony was very loyal to me and at my funeral said “Brutus was an honorable man III pg 88) I disagree with him because he is not an honorable man i was close to him and loved him but got betrayed.
So my dearest people please consider your friendships and be safe.

your forever loving leader,

Julius Caesar

pow does the opposite sex ever make you mad

Yes, yes girls do make me mad sometimes. Girls can get soooo annoying with everything. Like having a relationship can make you so stressed out you lose time to do stuff you want to do liek watch football and have to spend time with them and they get mad at you for talking to other girls and then breaking up and then just still mad at each other so yes girls do make me mad.

letter to dr. berry

dear Dr. Berry,

I think it is not cool to add more days to school because of the snow days we have had. If we had more snows days to add on we would have not had to worry about this. We shouldn't have to make up the days because of peoples vacations and summer sports.

        I understand why we should add days because it could be a benefit to students. If we add days the nit could help with finals and students study more and could help their grades if they have more days to add on to improve their grade.Also if there is more days students can learn a little more then the curriculum has put or help prepare students for next year. 
          People during the summer have many vacations planned out before school is done and if school is extended peoples vacations could be ruined. Also people could have already paid for their vacations and could have to waste their money for nothing. To save peoples time and money we shouldn't add more days.
Also a lot of sports are in the summer like football, softball, baseball, tennis, and others and if more days are added those sports can be effected big time. There are try outs and practices that are major to the teams and if they are affected by school then the team could be bad that year or people could not try out for the team because they have homework to do.

In conclusion, It would be a good idea to not add days because it would help with students lives a lot and if you were still a student would you want more days of school?

book blog #1

AC/DC Maximum Rock & Roll

This book is about the greatest rock band in the world AC/DC. In the first chapter it tells about the early lives of the members. Malcom and Angus were Born in Melbourne and then moved to austrailia and they both dropped out of school and formed bands Malcom was in Velvet Underground and Angus was in Kentukee. After a while they both formed a band call AC/DC and the name was suggested by their sister who saw it on a sewing machine and they got drummer Phil Rudd and bassist mark Evans and singer Bon scot and made there first album TNT and mae there first music video jailbreak. In the second chapter they made high voltage which includes songs its a long way to the top "if you want to rock n roll", TNT, and High Voltage. This album was the start and they were in a huge festival called concert in the green with Aerosmith and Ted Nugent and became popular. Next the made Dirty Deeds Done dirt cheap and had a lot of good songs.

picture blog

This is one of my most memorable pictures ever. It was my first season playing for onw and i had a very good year. This was the game against Lawrence and it was probably my best game of the season i was starting offensive right tackle and defensive tackle. I got 6 pancake blocks and a lot of great blocks. Also on defense i got three sacks and recovered a fumble. The picture is the last play of the game where Lawrence has the ball and I am  in the air trying to stop the pass and sadly missed by an inch but it was incomplete and we won. This picture is very memorable to me because that game we were supposed to lose and the guys were way bigger then us but we worked together as a team and won.

My name is Tyler John Moffat and my middle name is a great story. My parents debated a lot about my middle name because my original last name was Trudeau and my dad want my middle name to start with a n so my initals would be T.N.T like the song by AC/DC but my mom wanted it to be John after my grandpa who fought in Vietnam and came back and is still alive and a great grandfather. So they both argeed it to be John.
