“What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful” is the April precept and I feel like it’s judging who you are that if you are good you are beautiful but people that have “weird” faces are amazing not most of them but around the world so called “ugly” people are doing amazing things and this precept is saying their not this is not the real world, in the real world everyone is beautiful no one is ugly or so called weird and no one is bullied and or judged.
I think that the precept means that if you are good you are beautiful and that is so wrong! Everyone is different everyone isn’t beautiful how everyone wants it everyone wants life perfect but that is never going to happen never ever going to happen because life is just an endless loop of life and death and when we have a beautiful perfect world we would probably all be dead until everyone is dead and earth goes back to the perfect green place that it is and there is no more global warming that’s the beautiful world and this precept is deep very very deep (deep as in goes to far)

April Precept
Howdy, fellas! This is the first time, on this new blog, that I am gonna be writing a Precept. It sure is to cause pandamonium!
Anyways, the precept is: What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful
In my terms, it means that the beautiful stuff are good (however I would like to say not EVERY beautiful thing is good.) And, anyone/thing that’s good is going to be soon beautiful (again, I would like to disagree. Some are not pretty, even though they are beautiful. And there are things that are already BEAUTIFUL).
This precept pretty much makes sense, as you can easily identify the meaning. But, I would like to add something: We need some REAL-LIFE EXAMPLES!
April Precept
“What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful.” — Sappho,
Is this months precept, and I have a good perspective on what I believe this quote means. It has some relation to the story of “Wonder” Because of what is says. What is beautiful is good, that makes sense, take for example trees: they are beautiful and they do good for the earth because trees gives us oxygen. Now who is good will soon be beautiful, that relates to the story Wonder by a lot! If you haven’t read the story Wonder yet, by R.J Palacio, don’t worry, no spoilers. In the story , Auggie has a deformed face as i would call it, which doesn’t make him physically beautiful, but since he is such a heart-filled person, and is such a friendly fun guy to hang around, that will make others see he is beautiful because of that, and that he doesn’t need a beautiful face, he just needed a beautiful personality.
Now that I’ve explained what i think the precept means, I guess i’ll give my thoughts on it. I do agree with the meaning of this precept, but there are a few things wrong in my opinion. Not to get to specific in the precept but not all things that are beautiful are good. Take for example food, some foods look beautiful but they could be really unhealthy for you. Tell me if I got a little off topic or if you agree! Anyways, the “who is good will soon be beautiful” part is great, and i don’t think i could dis agree with that statement.
Creating Poems!
A few weeks ago we started learning about writing poems! Here are a few that I’ve created, each poem is labeled, so you know whether it’s a Haiku or a Quatrain:
McDonald’s by Jaden (Free Verse Poem)
McDonald’s is great, but it’s unhealthy,
Don’t eat it everyday, or you’ll be big!
Be smart with your diet, though food is good,
McDonald’s delicious, just like it should!
Money by Jaden (Haiku)
It’s all ‘bout money,
Money can buy you Honey,
And Honey is sweet.
Movies by Jaden (Quatrain)
Movies o’ Movies you’re filled with suspense,
Sometimes a movie can include fighting,
Some movies are action-packed, they are tense,
Sometimes scary, I mostly get frightened!
Tacos by Jaden (Rhyming Couplet)
Tacos O’ Tacos, they make me hungry,
I wish I could spawn them right beside me.
Treasure by Jaden (Rhyming Couplet)
Treasure is fun to dig out with some friends,
Super awesome, until the journey ends.
William Shakespeare
This blog is about my reflection on Bard. If you do not know what “Bard means William Shakespeare. If you don’t know who Bard is, he is a famous poet, who died 400 and something years ago.
Two people from Bard on the Beach, Jeff and Louisa, came and taught us some words Bard made. He made over 200 words, like the “Green eyed monster”, “Zany”, and way more! Louisa Wtalked about the play “Romeo and Juliet”, which we are going to soon.
So, anyway, Here are some the 5 questions I’m going to answer.
- What confirmed what you already knew,
- What was surprising
- What you enjoyed
- What you wonder about
- What you learned
- What I already knew was that Bard very well known man in this world. The plays he made were made about 400 something years ago. He wrote plays like “Romeo and Juliet”, “King Lear” and more!
- What was surprising is that I thought Bard on the beach wasn’t on the beach. I thought it was just a name.
- What I enjoyed was that Louisa, told the class some stuff about Romeo and Juliet, which was very awesome and cool!
- What I wonder about, is that why did Bard write all of these plays? Did he just want the $? Or did he want people to notice him? Or he just wanted to get famous?
- What I learned was some very different words, like “zany,” and “the green eyed monster.”
Well, that comes to the end of it, I hope you enjoyed my reflection on “Bard” Thank you for reading, and farewell, until next time!
Poems
This blog entry is going to be about poems
When I grow up…
I want to be a baker,
Maybe not a video game maker.
Working with animals would be great,
Hope my dad doesn’t eat the cookies that I like to make.
An author would be nice,
How ’bout a cook that likes to use spice.
Haiku!!!
Seasons are nice
My favourite is summer
I enjoy swimming
Rhyming couplet
I like to go to school and learn new things,
Sometimes at music our teacher sings.
Quatrain
I think about flying in the blue sky It’ll take time to get the hang of it And I will be fast while I soar up high And I will learn a lot more bit by bit
