Three Famous People

If I could spend the afternoon with three people, I would spend with Generals MacArthur, Patton, and Eisenhower. The reason why I would spend the afternoon with these three people is because they are kind of like my heroes. They were high ranking military Generals who faught and served for the U.S. in many wars, mostly known for their service in World War 2.

Favorite Field Trip

My favorite field trip I ever took was when I was in 3rd grade and we took a trip to San Diego harbor to learn about the ocean. So we basically did things that involved the ocean in any way. For example, we learned about the sea life and how the life changes the deeper the water. For example, we got on a boat and threw a big net of the end. When we pulled it back up there was all kinds of fish trapped in the net. We did this in different areas of water, the sea life changed in different depths of water.

Movie Review

One of my favorite movies is Top Gun. This movie is about a school for the top 1% of all fighter pilots in the United States Navy. The main character, Lt. Pete Mitchel or Maverick, has amazing talent in fighter piloting and is very confident. However he is a very large devil may care. He is a little to confident and breaks the rules a lot. Throughout the movie you see how Maverick makes his way through Top Gun and tries to score the highest in his class and become the one of the best fighter pilots in the world.

My Experience with Music 

An experience I have with performing music is my trumpet. I started playing 4 years ago when I was in 5th grade. Of course when I first started I was not very good, but I quickly learned all the notes and how to play. Over the years I practiced and played in concerts and became better and better. I still play trumpet and plan to keep playing throughout high school and maybe even my adult years. 

Special Christmas Gift

       A special gift that I have got in the past is my PS4. The reason why this gift is so special to me is because this is probably my favorite item in my house. I use it almost everyday and play my favorite video games on it. I will never forget when Christmas finally came after asking for a PS4 for almost a year. I looked under my tree and saw a gift about the right size and was thinking "please by a PS4, please be a PS4..." and of course when I opened it I was overjoyed.

My Name

My name is Matthew. The name Matthew comes from the Greek form of the Hebrew name "Mattityahu", meaning "gift of Yahweh".  The name was first given to Matthew(AKA Levi), one of the twelve apostles . He was a tax collector and the author of the New testament and considered a saint. In terms of popularity, the name Matthew is common mostly in Europe and in the United States. For example, Matthew is ranked number 7 for most common names in England and in Ireland. There also many forms the name Matthew takes in different languages. For example, Mateo is Matthew in Spanish.

What I would do if I worked at school

If I had to work at school, I would would be a social studies teacher. The reason why I would become a social studies teacher is because I REALLY like history, (especially American conflicts) it has and is now my strongest subject. Another reason why I would teach history is because I think it is really important to learn about history. The reason I think this is because history is what makes up the modern world, everything that happens today is because of something that happened through history.
