Ein Artikel von Ole

Martin Luther King Jr. Martin Luther King was an incredible man.

He was the seminal leader of civil rights movement and a key figure in the march on Washington for jobs and freedom in 1963. Therefore, he won the Nobel peace prize in 1964.

In the march on Washington, he delivered his famous speech, “I have a dream”. In 1965, he helped organize the Selma to Montgomery marches. The following year, he and the SCLC took the movement north to Chicago to work on segregated housing. On April 4, 1968 at 6:01 pm, he was fatally shot at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee by James Earl Ray and was rushed to St. Joseph’s Hospital, where he died at 7:05 pm. He was only 39 years old.

Ein Artikel von Luca

Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela wurde am 18. Juli 1918 geboren.

Nelson Mandela war eine sehr berühmte Person: Er war ein Anwalt, Politiker, Präsident und Friedensaktivist.

Er setzte sich dafür ein, daß Schwarze dasselbe machen können wie weiße Menschen, zum Beispiel: In denselben Bus gehen oder auf derselben Straßenseite laufen. Und er wurde im Jahre 1962 von einem weißen Polizisten für 27 Jahre ins Gefängnis gesetzt. Ich finde es ganz ungerecht, dass er für 27 Jahre ins Gefängnis gesetzt wurde, obwohl er etwas Gutes getan hat.

Nelson Mandela starb am 3. Dezember 2013.

Ein Artikel von Noel

Harriet Tubman Araminta Ross, also known as Harriet Tubman was called Minti by her friends.

She was born on January 29th, in 1822 and died on March 10th, 1913. She was 91 years old. > Early years Harriet Tubman was a brave child. As a slave tried escaping, Harriet Tubman jumped in front of a piece of metal that was meant for her friend. The metal hit her head and caused her to have headaches her whole life. > Saving Slaves For 19 years, Harriet Tubman went two times per year to save slaves. She saved 300 Slaves. > How she saved Slaves She saved slaves by telling them to go in the water so that the dogs wouldn’t smell them. They were scared to go so she sang a song that would make them brave to go in the water.

Ein Anleitung von Sophia

to draw a little white circle on the top for some lighting.

1) First, you want to draw the beak. You’ll draw a line that is kind of curved and is not in the middle but a little more towards the bottom. You will also draw a small line on the upper part.

5) After that, you can start drawing the fur, I think it always looks more interesting when you make everything a little different. You can make spots darker than others, make the fur go in different directions, or maybe you can think of something yourself!

2) Then you draw the outline of the body. I recommend to draw it gently so you can erase it easily if you want to change something.

6) Now you can draw the feet. The way I drew it is, I drew three triangles (don’t need to be perfect) and then I connected them to the rest of the body. After that, you can draw round lines on it, just for a little detail.

3) After that, cover the outline with fur.

Have fun drawing!

4) Then, you draw the eye, You don’t need to make it a perfect almond shape. Make sure 18

News

Season 8 is coming out soon!

Fortnite will add a new season, a new free pass, a new battle pass, map changes and maybe even a new weapon.

22

> What will be the theme of season 8?

Fortnite season 8 theme will be pirates.

> Season 8: Fortnite season 8 has been in the game for 3 days so far. The Battle pass is pirate themed. The first 2 skins are legendary.

The Pirate skin is called Blackheart and the red Ninja skin is called Hybrid. The tier 100 skin is called Luxe. It has 4 stages.

Fortnite also added a Banana skin (epic rarity) , that turned dark in Matches. Luxes pants turn gold at stage 4. A Volcano and Water geysers have been added. You can use the geysers to glide. The Lava does 1 damage to you. Make sure to go to an air base if you’re trying to find a Driftboard.

You will find 2 there and 2 chests. You will not find an Airplane there. There are over 60 reward items in the Season 8 battlepass. A cannon has been added to Fortnite, you are able to launch yourself out of it and you won’t take damage when you land!

> Challenges Overtime challenges have been added to fortnite. By completing 13 of any of the challenges you will receive the season 8 battle pass for free and other rewards!

Complete them soon! Overtime challenges will end soon. > New skins!

Fortnite has added some new skins to the shop that are robot themed. They also added a new emote called Overdrive. > More amazing news: - Drift boards have been added to fortnite.

Think of it as a floating skateboard.

> 3.11.19 Fortnite has added a legendary item in the game, so called a treasure map.

You can use it to find rare supplies in the game. It leads you to a chest with legendary supplies. Of course though, it’s hard to find. You don’t find it in Chests, its ground loot.

- Earthquakes have been added to fortnite.

It made a big crack near dusty divot and loot lake.

> Fortnite tips: -The RV park is located in paradise palms and the motel is located near lazy lynx.

-Chug Jugs take too long to use, try using mini shields, big pots and slurp juices.

23

> 1.4.19 The poison trap has been recently added to fortnite. It’s basically like a normal damage trap and a stink bomb combined.

When you place it against an enemy, it will do 10 damage per second. The poison trap will shoot out poison once placed against an enemy. So as you see, the poison trap does 10 damage per second, unlike the stink bomb which only does 5 damage per second.

News Fortnite has added a hamster ball which has a grappler equipped to it. You can use the grappler to hold on to things. It also has a boost which reloads very fast.

You are basically in a bubble so no one can snipe you.

Fortnite also made it, so that when you take a med kit and use it (or any healing items not counting apples and mushrooms), it looks more realistic and instead of just drinking from a chug jug (or minis…) or meddling from a med kit, you will open the lids from them. Using the med kit looks the most realistic now.

> New update!

Fortnite also recently added a new update. In the update they added Bananas, Coconuts and Chili Peppers.

You have to knock down a few palm trees to get 1 coconut. Using the Coconut will give you 5 hp. Same with a Bananas.

When using Chilli peppers, it will make steam come out of your Characters ears, it will also make you run and jump faster.

The Chilli Pepper last for about 8 seconds.

In the starting, when you consume the Chilli pepper, you will hear a bell ring.

Your Character will also be surrounded with red when consuming a Chilli Pepper.

Fortnite has also added a new Lava Legends pack. In this pack you can receive the 2 following skins: Molten Battle Hound and Molten Valkyrie, there is also 2 backblings and a glider, all of which are Legendary. This Bundle costs actual money and you can’t purchase it with V-bucks.

> Today, the 25, Fortnite has added a new emote called Spring Loaded.

Rarity: Blue / Rare (500 V-Bucks) In this Emote, you are basically doing a bunch of backflips over and over again.

Fortnite will be adding a Poison trap.

Season 8 is coming out soon! Only about 3 more days from today tell fortnite will add a new season, a new free pass, a new battle pass, map changes and maybe even a new weapon.

Fortnite recently added in the item shop a Lava wrap, it’s epic (purple) and costs 700 V-bucks. The best thing about this wrap is, that it’s active meaning the lava is moving.

24

Fortnite also added a new fire spinner emote.

It’s epic (purple) and costs 800 V-bucks.

> Overtime Challenges!

Like last season, Fortnite is giving players a chance to get the upcoming battle pass for free by completing some overtime challenges.

Here are the challenges: > Reach battle pass tier 23 > Complete free overtime challenges > Reach battle pass tier 71 > Reach battle pass tier 87 > Collect coins in featured creative islands place top 10 in squads with a friend > Deal damage to opponents > Placee top 15 in duos with a friend > Outlast opponents > Place top 25 in solo

The last thing I’m going to talk about today is the Floor is Lava LTM. In this Game Mode (or LTM) you try not to touch the lava. During a match of the Floor is lava, the whole entire map will be steamy. In this Game Mode, you can only do Duos, if you want to solo the Floor is lava, you’ll just have to do Duos no fill.

While the Storm eye is shrinking, the lava is rising. The last man standing, wins! > 4.7.19 In the next Update, fortnite is going to add a rebote van, it’s an item that you can pick up. When you activate the rebote van, which takes a while to open (about as long as drinking a chug jug) , once activated, your teammates will revive and be in a game with you.

> New game Mode: Fortnites new gamemode is called Endgame, it’s based on the new Avengers movie which is also called Endgame. In this game mode there are 2 teams, the Avengers and the Chitauri and Thanos.

It’s just luck to become Thanos, Fortnite will just choose a random player to be Thanos for each mach. Once Thanos dies, a new player (not from the Avenger team) will be chosen. There are 6 Infinity Stones, once all of the 6 stones are collected, you will not be able to revive in the Game mode Endgame (Avengers are not able to pick up Infinity Stones). There are also challenges, that you can complete to earn rewards. For example, once you have completed 8 of the 12 challenges, you will receive a Avengers glider, it’s basically a jet, that has flames coming out of the exhaust fumes in the back of the glider.

Fortnite has also added new skins, pickaxes, gliders and emotes to the item shop that are Marvel based.

Ein Artikel von Markus

> Graffiti, also known as street art, is a very common type of art. > Graffiti artists use spray paint to do Graffiti.

30

> Graffiti artists will usually sketch a drawing of what they want to spray paint on a wall. > Graffitiing a wall (or an object) is called a tag (plural is tagging). > Graffiti artists will use different caps for spraying. The caps spray paint in different sizes, for example a cone. > Spray paint brands:

Montana Gold Kobra Liquitex Loop Ironlak > Make sure to shake the spray paint can before use (shake for about 15 seconds). > When done, spray will look better.

You can use a glossy white to make an effect of shining for your tag. > Make sure to have a Signature for your Graffiti, for example your name.

You don’t want to have your signature look normal, you want to make it look cool. A way of doing this is by making it look 3D or putting a halo over one of the letters. It’s usually hard to read people’s tags.
