Final Summary of Time Riders (05/22/2013)
Hello everyone,
This is the final summary of Time Riders. I hope all of you enjoyed this book. There are seven more books in this series, which are just as interesting as this book was; I hope y'all get the chance to read them.
1. Liam and Bob were successful in their mission in 1941, and everything began to change in the future.
2. Maddy and Foster open the portal and liam returns without Bob...Liam is sad about losing Bob.
3. They begin to fix up the base after the mutant attack so that it is operational again.
4. Sal returns to them and has no recollection of what happened to her after she was abducted in the apocalyptic New York.
5. Foster takes Maddy out and tells her that he is dying and that he cannot stay with them. He then tells her all of the responsibilities she will have and the fact that Liam is dying quicker than her and Sal simply because of his real age. Foster leaves.

Time Riders Summary (May 15, 2013)
Hello Everyone,
Here is the running summary of Time Riders up to now. I was not able to type up yesterday's summary, so I will put it in with this.
1. Liam and Bob go to New York City to find the museum so Liam can send the home base an exact location for them to open a time portal back to 2001.
2. While in the museum, Liam and Bob run into the younger version of the guard in 2001 that stands next to the guest book. The Guard watches for them while Liam scribbles their coordinates on one of the guest books; he hides it up in the wall.
3. Bob and Liam then go to the archway and run some Chinese family out so the portal can be opened in that location.
4. Foster and the girls go to the museum, find it is cleared out, but they find the clues Liam left and the book behind the wall. The location turns out to be right in the archway by the base of the Williamsburg Bridge.
5. While Foster and the girls are out, those nuclear mutated people follow them while they are at the museum and ambush them taking Sal.
6. Foster and Maddy leave Sal behind and get back to base and continue to work on the time portal, to get all of the lights blinking green so they could start it up. The monsters find out where they are and break in after them through the wall.

Running Summary of Time Riders (May 13, 2013)
Hello everyone,
Here is the running summary for Time Riders as of today, May 13, 2013:
1. Karl Haas sees the nuclear bomb that Kramer is going to use to wipe out all creation and is concerned about Kramer's sanity. He tries to reason with Kramer and tell him that what he was about to do was not right; in his delusion and paranoia, Kramer has Karl executed by his SS Lieberstandarte guards in his quarters.
2. Maddy, Sal, and Foster attempt to open the time portal for Liam and Bob, but it is too small for either of them to get through,so Foster closes the portal.
3. The crew back at home base in 2001, and Liam in 1957 start to lose hope of getting back to the future to fix time, but Bob keeps urging Liam to come up with a plan to get home.
4. Bob tries to instruct Liam on how to remove the circuit device in his head, but Liam wimps out at the last second and refuses to remove it, even after Bob gives him the knife.
5. Liam gets the idea to go to Washington and put a message where he knows the crew back at home base will find it.
Sorry......3 and 4 need to be flipped to be in the right order.
Stay tuned tomorrow for the next summary of Time Riders..........until then, happy time traveling!

Semester Final English/Math
Hello Everyone,
For the Semester Final, we will be having it over Time Riders. It will be between 65 and 70 questions, and there will be a few multiple choice, the rest will be short answer, but most of you have been keeping up with the readings and have been here for the recaps of the chapters, so you should do well with the short answer. It will be give the last week of school on Tuesday, May 28, 2013.
There will also be a semester exam for Math over the concepts we have learned this semester and will include the following concepts we have introduced this last week and a half:
1. Radical numbers
2. Multiplying/dividing fractions
3. Square numbers
4. Pythagorean Theorem
The exam will probably be between 40 and 50 problems and will be given on Wednesday, May 29, 2013.
The exams will not be difficult.....if you can beat the STAAR, you can beat the final exam. We will have reviews for each of these exams with a review sheet to take home and study. We will review in class as we have for every exam I have given in class this year.
There will probably be five problems from each of the four above mentioned concepts in Math and some application questions in the English final.

Running Summary of Time Riders.........Round 2
Hello everyone,
As we continue our saga in Time Riders, here is a running summary since yesterday afternoon:
1. Liam has been found by Bob in one of the prison camps; he was breaking into prison camps, releasing American prisoners while looking for Liam.
2. Once he found Liam, he received a transmission from the home base in New York City 2001 giving them coordinates for a new rendezvous point to be picked up with the portal. The only thing was that they had enough power to bring back only one person, Liam.
3. Since Bob has an expiration date out in the field, he disclosed this to Liam, and Liam freaked out about it. Bob told Liam that he would have to take his head back with him and leave the rest of Bob's body back in 1957. This did not set well with Liam.
4 Back in 2001, after a long search in buildings, warehouses, and subway houses, Maddy, Sal, and Foster found some diesel fuel to start the generator for the time machine portal. They send a transmission to Bob in Washington D.C. giving him GPS coordinates on where the new pick up point will be.
5. Before Liam is rescued, Bob is on the other side of the fence with some of the freed American prisoners, and they are attacking the German Camp. The German guards begin killing all the prisoners, so Liam runs into one of the huts and hopes to not be found.
6. Bob and Liam still have to break it to the men following Bob that they have to leave and Bob will no longer be their leader. Liam is afraid this will not be pleasant.
7. Bob's followers believe he was sent from God, like some angel sent to help them.

Running summary from Time Riders
Here is the breakdown of the book:
1. Madeline Carter, a nerdy computer hacker aboard an exploding plane, and Liam O'Connor, a boat hand aboard the Titanic are rescued from certain death by Mr.Foster, a man full of mystery.
2. They meet a girl named Sal and find out that she was rescued also.
3. The three find out why they have been rescued (to be time police or Time Riders), and they will be responsible for protecting time from evil.
4. They find out their jobs from Mr. Foster and they begin training in the time September 10, 2001 in New York City.
5. Training is cut short when they see a shift(a wrinkle in time caused by time tampering) take place in the time stream and they are forced to react.
6. This man named Dr. Paul Kramer and a military friend, Karl Haas(in the year 2066) find a time machine and go back into time to alter it so that there is no more war and poverty, creating the shift seen by the team in 2001.
7. They go back to the time 1941 to Hitler's winter retreat and join league with him to win World War II.
8. Liam and his assistant, Bob, a cyborg robot, go back to try to find out what happened and discover a ruined America conquered by the Germans led by Kramer in 1956.
9. Liam and Bob have three time windows in which to return to headquarters from their mission to find out exactly where time was altered and miss all three.
10. Maddy and Foster open the time portal and bring back a German from the future by accident from the place where Liam and Bob are supposed to return for the time window.
11.This mishap causes some of the men in the future to be fused together into one body and this was brought to Kramer's attention by Karl Haas.
12. Kramer became paranoid about the possibility of another time traveler coming to kill him, so he destroys all history and the whole world with a explosive device, causing a enormous shift in time which creates an apocalyptic world where New York City is in ruins.
13. The 2001 team finds that there are mutated inhabitants in the city that are cannibalistic, and they have to fight their way through a survival horror reality to find the fuel they need to run their time machine.
14 Back in 1956, Liam is in a prison camp where they keep defeated American soldiers and high-ranking American politicians, and Bob is trying to rescue him.
15. As he goes along freeing prisoners from these prison camps, he gains a following of soldiers, and he is considered "Superman" by all the people.
These are the high points of the book.

Tomorrow, we are having another field trip to Brackenridge park. We will be leaving at about 9:00 a.m. and will return at about 3:00 p.m. We will be having a Cell Organell Exam, so bring your Science notebook. We will also be continuing with Pythagorean Theorem and delve a little deeper with some practice problems. I will be giving the class a list of the perfect square numbers, so we can work wirth them and learn them. We will also be continuing with Time Riders in Chapter 46 and will read through to Chapter 53.

Watch Cruising down the X and Y highway with Mr. Ellison
Hello to all that view my blog regularly.
The video that I made called Cruising the X and Y Highway with Mr. Ellison is a really good video that I made that helps with teaching the concept of plotting ordered pairs on a grid. I know that it is 19 minutes, but it breaks down the coordinate grid and is a comprehensive lesson on gridding. Those who view it should find it very useful. I hope y'all take the time to view the video and tell me what you think. Thanks a lot .
