Look back in your writer's notebook. Mark off interesting or important memories. What small moments reveal something about you? Were there any "teaching moments?"
in my writers notebook i looked back and saw some interesting memories like the first day of school and the time we actually had to write about a memoir and i wrote about a dream that i went to school in my underwear by mistake so i cried the whole day (in my dream) then i actually woke up and went to school i definitely made sure that i had my clothes on that day
hi every 1!!!!!!! i remember when my dad came from guyana just for my 6th birthbay!! then he suprised me and told me that he was staying forr the rest of the year and forever and ever !!!!! i got so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : )
I have many memeories in my writers notebook. When I look back I see sad and exciting memories and painful and joyful ones too. I found the memorie of when I had three bad acidents. Those are the bad ones. I found ones when I had to leave my home country Guyana to come to America.
i remember the time when i went to pet land with my dad and we bought almost about fifteen gold and rainbow fish but then the next day half of them died i was so mad.but that was the fourth time when i got them.but my first fish was two tiny baby sharks and so everytime i put my finger in the fish bowl they always bet me,but it don't hurt. then the second fish was my favorite fish the "rainbow fish". i cried when they died i called them May,April and also June. that was the last time i ever got i mean bought fish ever again! ={!
I remember me saving a baby bird's life. I was playing tag with my friends when I saw a baby bird resting on the street of the bus stop. The bus was coming and when i came near it it would not fly away. Then i sort of touched the bird and it went to the middle of the street.and there was a car coming my friend made a stop sign to tell that car to stop. The baby bird was out of breath. so I lifted it up and put him on a magazine. then we took him to the sidewalk and gave him some water. then we put him on the floor and he went away with some birds. I was sad and i still miss him so much!!!!
i had so many memories in my life. Some are vey sad and some are very exiting.I remmeber the time i lost my favorite cousin. That was like the biggest shock i ever faced. On the oyther hand i remmmeber the time i went to Dorney Park. I really loved the roller coasters. I have many twists in my life. I have learned alotr from them.
christine s- i remember my big sis's wedding i rememer the first time i met christine r i remember the first time i rode my bike. i remember a lot of things i just can't think right now. im to unhappy. =(
I remembered when i met my best friends in each grade i was and now in. And they make the best memories they no one could ever have! And I'm glad to call them my friends!
P.S you guys rock! And you guys are, AWESOME!Rock On! =7!=}!
I remembered when i first helped a hurt cat. It had followed my dad all the way home. We learned that she was hurt, so we brought her some milt and put some type of tube on her back were she was hurt. she came again a few days later and we gave her some milk.
I also remember when i first touched a small, cute, furry and hairy dog. my brother was with me. he was eager to touch it but also scared. He would get close to him, about 2 inches away and then he would go back. The dog was scared himself for he hadn't seen us before. When he barked, my brother backed up and yelled back.
I also remember when i was going to compete against a group of 7 year chapians in the academic challenge. I wasn't alone. there were 9 other kids. We had to memorize over 1,000 questions and answers in only two monthes. It was difficult, but lots of fun. we used buzzers and worked together. We were supposed to compete against 16 schools, but we only competed against four. we won for the first time.
sorry about that. i went to smokey park to watch some kind og game. Players from different parts of india and america came (i think).In the final, India won the american cup! i went there at 3:30 and came back at 6:30. it was a nice game, but it was hard to see in the sun. i just got home. I didn't get to eat anything there, so my mom is cooking my favorite food in the world... it is... DOSA!!!
One memory i ahve is when i went over for dinner at my aunt's old house and i was there doing my homework, playing, and eating.
Another memory i have is when i had a sleep over at my aunt's new house. Before sleeping, we watched a hindi movie on the laptop. Everyone was queitly sitting to see what would happen next.
Also remember my first sleepover at my aunt's house. i wore her clothes and went to her college and ate McDonalds there. We even watched movies and listened to stories.
Finally, i remember when another one of my aunt's came over to my house and told us stories about real things that happened in the past like the fact that someone was going to die because of cancer, so they decided to go to Harminder Sahib and do prayers. On one of his days there, he started to feel better after listening to the words from Guru Granth Sahib Ji. A few hours later, he was able to run. they went to the doctor and found out that the guy didn't have cancer anymore. Cool isn't it??????????????????????????????
This teaches me thati like to be with my relatives more than i like to be at home.
i have learned many things in my life. i have learned how to go on through rough things. i have learned that you can do anything that you want yo succeed. I learned that good days might have bad endings. i learned that special days might have some sour twists. I have learned so much from my life.
I remember the time that I went to North carolina. I visited my Uncle. There house was hudge two time the size as a regular house. I have not seen my cousins in a long time and I had so much fun with them. By the way inside the house I could not find the kitchen.
one day i remembrer that i had a fight with my friends lastyear. That same night i had a dream that that taought me a valuable lesson. It was that no matter what you should always be thankful of what you have the friends, family, et.!!
Yes, Kiranpreet - memoirs are memories you look back on and find meaning. (You thought differently about yourself, learned something about yourself, etc.)
Everyone - try to find times in your life like this...
When i looked back in my writers notebook i saw very cool. I mostly saw memories about the school year, like the first day of school, my first sixth grade trip, and etc.
I did look back into my writers notebook and found that some memoirs are when i came to the united states (NY to be specific). Anther one is was my first day of school, i have more!
Wow! the memories you have shared are really special. Sometimes when you read someone's memories, it sparks a memory from your past. continue to post your memoirs. I applaud you all for taking the time to make this a learning process as well as a fun activity. It also forces me to use the computer. Thank you Mr. Byrd and class.
Thanks, Ms. Hazzard for joining our blog...I can think of several memories that taught things..
When I was in college, a fellow student who was in my dorm treated me like garbage. He was a real jerk but I wasn't yet confident or bold enough to put him in his place.
I have a lot of memories-- Academic challenge Pennsylvania-poconos, seven springs India 6 years ago!!! Bronx zoo, turtle race 4th grade talent show Fifth grade talent show Inida how and why I went there The ship!!! How I met my friend Pardeep! Badminton First time I went to a picinic with my family!

Mr. byrd, aren't memoirs memories that made you think differently about yourself or a time when you learned something about yourself??
If they are, thin why are people just writting memories??
From the first two memories, i learned that i love animals.
and from the last one, i learned that being smart is not enough, you even have to be quick!!
i couldn't blog the other days because i was busy getting ready for a speech contest and other boring things.
One memory i ahve is when i went over for dinner at my aunt's old house and i was there doing my homework, playing, and eating.
Another memory i have is when i had a sleep over at my aunt's new house. Before sleeping, we watched a hindi movie on the laptop. Everyone was queitly sitting to see what would happen next.
