W HO'S W HO? DO YOU KNOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS?


STARTEN MET BUCKLE UP! Welkom in Buckle Up! We leggen graag uit hoe je met dit boek aan de slag gaat.

1

Hoe zit een unit van Buckle Up! in elkaar?

Het leerwerkboek bestaat uit 6 units en 1 herhalingsunit op diddit.

N IN

Elke unit begint met een overzicht. Dat is de weg die jij tijdens de unit aflegt om de leerstof te verwerken.

VA

Je start met Once upon a time. Daarin maak je kennis met Sam en Dario en hun vrienden en met het thema van de unit.

©

In Story time kom je meer over hen te weten. In dat deel leer je vooral luisteren en lezen. Zo krijg je de nieuwe leerstof aangebracht.

In Time to practise oefen je de leerstof in op jouw niveau. Afhankelijk van je resultaat ga je die herhalen (Time to catch up) of verdiepen (Time to get ahead). five

In Time to check yourself controleer je een eerste keer zonder te studeren hoe goed je de leerstof onder de knie hebt. Je geeft zelf aan wat goed gaat en waarop je nog moet oefenen.

BUCKLE UP!

starten met buckle up!

5


Daarna is het aan jou: Your time! Voor het eerst ga je de nieuwe leerstof gebruiken om zelf te vertellen en te schrijven.

N IN

In de Summary vind je een overzicht van de woordenschat, grammatica en veelgebruikte uitdrukkingen.

VA

Op diddit vind je de pagina Time’s Up! Daarop kunnen jij en je leerkracht aangeven wat al lukt en waarop je nog moet oefenen. Zo weet jij waarop je extra moet letten bij het studeren.

2

Extra hulpmiddelen

In de loop van elke unit word je ondersteund door een aantal hulpmiddelen.

©

Bij het begin van elke unit vind je een lijst met woorden die regelmatig terugkeren in de oefeningen van de unit.

Blauwe woorden zijn nuttig en kun je beter onthouden. Rode woorden verwijzen naar een grammaticaregel.

Grammaticale regels staan altijd in een grammaticakader, met een duidelijk voorbeeld erbij. six

Vaardigheden zijn een belangrijk onderdeel bij het leren van een nieuwe taal. Daarom geven we bij oefeningen aan welke vaardigheid je oefent:

(listening)

(watching)

(reading)

(writing)

(speaking)

(spoken interaction)

(written interaction)

N IN

Tijdens de unit krijg je regelmatig de kans om een check of checklist in te vullen. Daarin geef je voor jezelf en je leerkracht aan wat je al kunt en waarop je nog moet oefenen.

In elke unit duiken makkelijkere en moeilijkere oefeningen op. Je herkent ze aan deze pictogrammen: makkelijker moeilijker

Wanneer je ze in de Story time of Your time ziet, kun je kiezen welk type oefening je maakt. Zo heb je je eigen leertraject mee in de hand!

VA

Wanneer er moeilijke woorden voorkomen, worden die uitgelegd in de glossary.

HOW TO?

Dankzij de QR-codes in het boek, bekijk je makkelijk de instructiefilmpjes die je helpen bij het oplossen van de oefeningen.

STORY TIME 1 1

Learning about physical appearance Listen to the conversation between Sam, Dario and their friends. a What is the topic of the conversation?

Ugh. I really don’t like this new PE teacher. What is her name again? Miss Ryder. She seems nice to me. She seems nice? Hmmm. Do you think she’s pretty? Don’t be silly. I don’t like blondes. Is that the only reason? Or is she too curvy? Not really. I like curvy girls, not that there’s anything wrong with being thin. Lee Ching Yeah, we know he thinks Sam is cute. So he must fancy redheads with curls and green eyes. Layla Such a pity that I’m a brunette. I think Dario is quite handsome. I really like his dark skin. Lee Ching I like tanned skin, but I like fair skin as well. And I am a softy for freckles. Layla Hmmm ... if you like red hair and freckles, Nathan is your perfect match. I’m sure he is a fan of your black hair and hazel eyes. You look exotic.

Ms Ryder Okay everyone. We need two teams. Let’s see ... Dario and Lee Ching are team captains. You can choose who you want on your teams. Nathan I hate it when we have to play in teams like this. I’m so short. I am always the last one to be picked. Grace Oh, come on, you’re okay! The best gifts always come in small packages. Wilson Well, that’s horrible news for me then. I'm a really big package. And I don’t mean my height. Morgan I think you look amazing Wilson. Great gifts come in all sizes if you ask me. Wilson That’s easy for you to say, Morgan. You’re tall, blond and beautiful. Ali Look around, mate. We’re all different sizes and colours. Sure, I look like a god with my long black hair and brown eyes. But everyone is different. As long as you feel comfortable in your own skin there is nothing to worry about. Wilson I guess you’re right. I know I’m a bit chubby, but my brother says I look like a whale. I usually ignore him, but it isn’t always easy. It hurts my feelings, you know.

11


That’s called body shaming and it is not okay. It doesn’t matter what you look like. It’s what is on the inside that counts. What gives your brother the right to say such mean things? He isn’t skinny, is he? Not really. Maybe he is uncomfortable in his skin? Wilson Ali Yeah, he’s probably jealous of your good looks. I find you very attractive. Alright, alright, that’s a little much. Wilson Ms Ryder Is there a problem, guys? All No, Ms Ryder. Ms Ryder Then stop talking so we can make the teams up. All Yes, Ms Ryder.

How to cheer someone up: 10 ways to make a friend smile

Here's exactly how to make someone feel better by McKenzie Terry MARCH 25, 2020

VA

When your bestie is down in the dumps, all you want to do is cheer them up. We've got tons of ideas for how to cheer someone up, no matter the situation! Some of the ideas here might be cheesy or feel silly, but didn't you say you'd do anything to lift your pal up? There is sure to be something on this list that can turn any frown upside down.

1

10

First off, find out if the person you’re trying to cheer up actually wants your help! It's important to get someone's permission to cheer them up. Otherwise it might feel to them like you're uncomfortable with how they feel and just want to make it go away.

2

©

Notes are always a great way to let that friend, who maybe gets a little uncomfortable when it comes to the emotional stuff, know you still care. It makes people feel thought of. You can give them words or mantras to cheer them up and to replace their negative thoughts. Write something cute, fold it up, and slip it somewhere for them to find later.

15

20

to be down in the dumps: in de put zitten to lift up: opvrolijken a frown: een grimas

22

Come up with a clever nickname. The funnier it is, the better. It’s not only a great way to get them laughing right now, but it will be your secret weapon to get them to laugh in the future too.

UNIT 1

,

MY BODY MY BUDDY


4

Taking out at least an hour or two every week for an activity you enjoy can help you relax. Help your friend feel better by taking the time to do something they like to do, even if it’s playing video games.

25

5

30

6

N IN

Baking has a therapeutic effect, because the act of measuring, mixing and paying attention to a recipe often takes your whole attention. You actually create peace in your mind, which pushes away many negative thoughts and emotions. The delicious smells also produce happy feelings.

If it gives them a smile, it'll be worth it. Find all the silly videos of babies dancing, clumsy moments, and dogs being dogs. Tag them in any and every thing that might give them a laugh.

35

Talking is one of the most effective ways to cheer someone up. Encourage your friend to share their feelings! Teenagers (especially girls) often say that when they are stressed they want someone to talk to about things. Be there for them. Listen to them. If they aren’t interested in talking, invite them to do an activity with you and the chances are, they will start talking.

VA

40

7

8

Grab some noodles and have at it. Try to avoid getting hit by any means necessary. Remember: the more endorphins you release, the happier you BOTH will be. (This is one of our favourite things for cheering someone up!)

45

9

Another idea for how to cheer someone up? Watch movies together! This is an especially good idea if your friend doesn't feel like talking just yet. Grab some popcorn and watch one of the best feel-good movies on Netflix.

50

55

If a friend goes through a dark period that lasts longer than a few weeks without having at least some good days or if they want to hurt themselves, this is the time to call a parent, a teacher or another adult they trust. If the friend is really depressed, you might not be able to help, no matter how much you try. They will be lucky to have a friend like you to tell their parents or another adult about their problems so that they can begin their treatment and recovery.

therapeutic: therapeutisch, heilzaam to measure: afmeten to encourage: aanmoedigen to avoid: ontwijken, vermijden by any means necessary: op elke mogelijke manier endorphins: endorfines (= gelukshormoon) a treatment: een behandeling

Spoken word is a form of poetry that is to be performed for an audience. It includes all kinds of poetry that is performed aloud, such as jazz poetry, hiphop music, poetry slam ... Some examples are:

a poetry slam: a competition in which poets perform spoken word poetry before a live audience and a panel of judges. Slams are often loud and lively, with audience participation, cheering and dramatic delivery. a rap song: a form of music that blends rhyme, rhythmic speech and often slang words, which is performed or chanted in different ways, usually over a backing beat. a spoken word song: a performance art in which lyrics, poetry or stories are spoken instead of sung. The emphasis lies on the speaker and his word-based performance.

5 tips to write Spoken Word Poetry

5

1

Write what you know. If you want to be a convincing poet, choose a topic that you know a lot about. You can look very silly if you talk about things that you know nothing about. When you are passionate about a subject, it shows in your poetry.

2

Reading is writing. You can only learn how to play with words, if you read a lot. Reading how other writers use words in different ways can be very inspiring. It will also help you find your own style.

3

Bring it back. If you keep coming back to a certain idea or catchy phrase by repeating it, you can emphasise that idea. It also gives the poem a certain rhythm.

VA

10

Some poets make it seem so easy, but easy it is not! You have to have a way with words if you want to reach people with your poetry. Use the following tips and explore your talents for spoken word poetry!

N IN

1

15

4

Practise. Go over your poem until you know it by heart. This way you will be able to put more feeling into what you are saying.

5

Speak to the audience. Look at your audience when you are performing your poetry and let them interact with you. It is typical for the audience to snap or whoop when they hear something that they like a lot. If you make eye contact, you give them the feeling that you are talking directly to them.

Oh my God, Grace what are you doing? I am trying on these shoes at the moment. This is the best place to find interesting clothes at a fair price. You’re buying shoes at a market? Are you crazy? The quality can’t be good at these prices. Oh, but you are mistaken my friend. I get all my clothes here. This hoodie, my dress, my trainers, even my socks came from this market. Are you joking? I’m not lying. And the atmosphere is an added bonus. Just look at everyone! They are all smiling and having fun. And there are always people with stalls, selling handcrafts and handmade jewellery. What are you talking about? They’re selling rubbish. You’re so wrong. Well I need some new trousers to go with this jacket. Are you telling me that I can find a pair here? Of course! Just look at this stall. They have everything: shoes, sweaters, T-shirts, skirts, hats, trousers. They even sell glasses! I can see that. But just look at those crazy jumpers. Everything is striped, floral or checked. And what about these jeans? They have polka dots. So you’re not a fan of patterns. I get that. And I don’t like a lot of the fabrics. Wool makes me itch and silk is ... well, it’s just wrong. I’m a ‘cotton guy’, to be honest. How about these overalls? They are kind of cool. Cool? I might as well wear a romper and a nappy. Hahaha. Don’t get your knickers in a twist! Oh, we’re buying underwear now? I get my boxers at Marks & Spencer’s, thank you very much. And I’m not saying that you can’t buy your bras and panties here. That’s none of my business.

How to Style a Jumpsuit?

Wear a Cardigan Wearing a cardigan on top of a jumpsuit will protect you from the chilly weather when the temperature starts to drop. However, you won’t feel too hot when the sun shines. Don’t Skip Leggings Wearing leggings is probably the most popular tip for everyday outfits. Don’t be scared to add colour to make an outfit look elegant and unique. Bright colours like royal blue and yellow look a bit unusual but they’re playful enough to make an outfit look more special. There are some printed leggings that can perfectly match with a solid jumpsuit and a cardigan.

Go for Basics The idea is very simple. Just pick a basic T-shirt and wear it under the jumpsuit. If the jumpsuit is patterned, choose one of the colors in the prints and go for it. You can have a new look every day just by adding a new shirt.

A jumpsuit is an outfit that is perfect for every occasion. Here are a few combination ideas.

How to use the articles?

1 The definite article ‘the’

You use ‘the’ when you talk about one or more specific items. e.g. Give me the book about technology.

2 The indefinite articles ‘a’ and ‘an’

You use ‘a’ or ‘an’ to talk about a random item. e.g. It’s hot today. I can use a drink. e.g. I eat an apple every day.

©

When you hear a consonant at the beginning of the word, you use 'a'.

When you hear a vowel at the beginning of the word, you use 'an'.

e.g. a cardigan, a yellow T-shirt, e.g. an apple, an umbrella, a pair of trousers an old sweater

Mind! Mind! an hour (you don’t say ‘h’) a uniform, a unicorn (you say: /joe/-niform, /joe/-nicorn) 3 No article When you talk about all things, or things in general, you don’t use an article.

fifty-three

e.g. I love music. e.g. They sell cardigans at the market.

Every few months I go shopping with my 16 year old daughter. I buy her ... well, anything she wants, really. No, it’s not healthy. I know I am spoiling her. But you should see the happiness in her eyes when she asks me for the newest trainers and I say, not even bothered, ‘Go get them then.’ She beams. ‘Really?’ ‘Yeah, they’re not too expensive. Why not?’ My savings account is nil, naught, zero, zilch, nada, by the way. But that’s fine because I can go below zero. Good on me!

I was not prepared for the anger I had unleashed. My little girl, who I do EVERYTHING for, started going off on me! Loudly. Why don’t I want her to have nice things like my niece? I must love my niece more. I never get her anything. She helps me so much and I can’t even buy her a silly sweater for £75! Mind you, she doesn’t actually help at all. When I ask to empty the dishwasher, I feel like holding my hands under her eyes because it looks like they will roll out of her head. When I ask her to tidy her room, she answers: ‘Later.’ With ... you guessed it ... an eye roll.

Anyway, while she was throwing these horrible lies in my face, my heart broke. I started to cry in the middle of the shop. Silently. But the tears just ran down my cheeks. Without saying a word I went to the checkout. I took a £100 note from my purse. (I am giving my credit card a rest.) I waited quietly for the shop assistant to take my change from the till and put the sweater and my receipt in a bag. I walked out of the shop, my head high and I went straight to the car. She followed. Scared, no doubt. Because she didn’t really know what to expect, did she? Mum never says no.

Well, today we went shopping. That is to say, we were in a shop. It was to be in and out. I didn’t even take a basket. We were looking for a present for my niece, so we didn’t need a basket, let alone a trolley. My daughter wears the same size as my niece. That comes in handy when you need someone to try on clothes. We looked in every aisle, on every shelf and on every rack in the shop. Finally we found the cutest sweater. Success. I thought. Then my daughter yelled something from in the fitting room. ‘Can I have one as well?’ And I said ... wait for it ... ‘No.’

35

When we got into the car, we sat in silence for two, agonizing minutes. Then, with the tears still running down my face I stared in front of me and said in a calm voice: ‘You are looking for a job. I am not buying you anything outside of the bare necessities. Do you understand?’ She did. The fear in her eyes told me that she did. It also told me that she didn’t realise how much she had hurt me until she saw the tears. to unleash: losmaken, ontketenen So again, mums, help. Do you think I am being agonizing: kwellend too harsh?

The Royal Guards: They are the protectors of the queen and stand guard at all her important locations. To be a Royal Guard is an honour. During duty they mustn’t speak or move. They may march once an hour to keep the blood flowing. The typical costume consists of a red jacket trimmed with gold, black trousers, a high furry hat that is bound under the chin, and a rifle.

C

The Beefeaters: These are the brave men who supposedly protect the crown jewels in the Tower of London. On a regular day they wear a dark blue uniform with red trimmings. However, when the Queen is visiting the tower they have a fancier uniform of red with gold trimmings.

D

The national costume of Wales: The women typically wear a long skirt, worn with a petticoat, an apron, a strange hat, and a shawl. Men wear black breeches, a white shirt with a black waistcoat, a black hat and long white socks to their knees.

E

The national dress of Scotland: Men wear a tartan kilt and a round leather, or fur bag – called a sporran – at their waist, knee-high socks and a tartan cap on their head. Tartan is a plaid material. The colours depend on which clan (family) you belong to. It is said that a real Scotsman doesn’t wear anything under his kilt which often makes for interesting situations.

In November 2020, the couple donated five hundred thousand dollars to organizations helping youth in Canada who are in trouble. The pair decided to give two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to Covenant House Vancouver, and another two hundred and fifty thousand dollars to Covenant House Toronto. ‘The young people who pass through the doors of Covenant House often have a story with extraordinary trauma,’ Reynolds said in a statement on the Covenant House website. ‘They are so much more than that trauma. They have so much to offer the world. This gift is saying you believe in them. You believe in the power of compassion to change a person’s path.’

As you know, Layla’s birthday is coming up, and last time we met we decided to organise a surprise party. We all agreed to do this on Saturday 5th February, but we still have a lot of work to do. First of all, last Tuesday I called Layla’s mum to ask if we could have the party at their place and she agreed! We can use the barn and the garden. She suggested that they take Layla out for the day so that we can get everything ready for the party. I told her the party would start at seven o’clock. Can everyone be at Layla’s at half past three to make sure everything is ready in time?

Lee Ching Morgan Lee Ching Dario

Hey guys, Dario and I are going to buy the decorations in a bit. Do you have any ideas? Oh! I have some sweet 16 pictures from Pinterest that Layla liked! I will send them to you right away. Maybe something for the photo booth? Can you pick up some glittery balloons? I know she loves those! Oh no! You can’t have glittery balloons! I don’t think Layla is that kind of girl. She told me yesterday how much she likes them, so I’m pretty sure about this. Okay, then. Sam, do we know what her favourite colour is? We can’t just choose what we like. I know she really likes black and silver. That’s set then. Now that we’re all talking to each other, Morgan and I are going to do the grocery shopping for the party tomorrow. Anything special we should buy? Morgan, are you going to bake a cake? Can you put the ingredients on our grocery list? And Ali, do we need anything special for the winter barbecue? I am going to make cupcakes instead of a big cake. Should we buy some sprinkles to put on top? Or chocolate chips? Why not both? I will help Morgan decorate the ones with chocolate. Are you sure you are not just going to eat all the chocolate? Knowing you … Wilson, I will text you what I need for the barbecue. That’s easier. Oh, by the way! We made an invitation for the party. Show them Dario! You have the printed version. Here it is! I really love it, Grace! It’s perfect. I am sure everyone will be so excited! Eh, guys, who are we going to invite to this party? We don’t have a guest list yet and the party is next week! I can’t make cupcakes without knowing how many people are going to come to our party. I’m on it! I will text you the guest list. See you later, all!

Why do I have to feed the chickens tonight? SURPRISE! Happy birthday, Layla! OH. MY. GOD. You guys! I love it so much! Thanks a lot! How did you do all of this? Dario With a little help from some friends, and your parents, of course. Grace We have another surprise for you, Layla, but you will have to wait a bit longer to know what it is … Do you want something to drink? Layla Thanks. I will get it myself, you don’t have to do everything for me. Sam Oh no, you will not do that. Just enjoy the party. Tonight it’s about you. Here you go. Now come on, follow us outside. We have planned a winter barbecue. This is amazing! Layla Wilson Guys … I know we’ve planned this, but I am not sure about having all these things outside. What if it rains this evening? Or if there is a storm? Lee Ching Don’t be silly, Wilson. The weather forecast said it will be dry tonight, so don’t worry about the wind or a storm. I am sure it will be a perfectly fine evening outside. It is a bit chilly maybe, but nothing we can’t manage. We still have our coats and the fire pits. Nathan Er, you guys, Wilson might be right … Look at all those clouds. It is definitely going to rain. And look how windy it is right now. It’s not just a little rain either, I think there's a storm coming!

Nathan I guess I opened the wrong door … The pony and some other animals have escaped. Sorry! My parents are going to be so mad! Layla Wilson Don’t worry, Layla! We will catch them. I will help you with it. I already took down the lights. Sam Grace, will you put them on the wall inside? Lee Ching I will tell all the guests to go straight inside.

Shoot Cupid's arrow The week before Valentine’s Day (so, like, now!), write down all of your friends' names on cute heart-shaped cards and have each friend pick one out of a hat. This is the perfect time to explain any rules that you have. Some good ideas are to set a price limit (like no more than $20) or to make a pact to not switch picks.

10

Spread the love This is where the fun starts! For each of the five days leading up to Valentine’s Day, everyone must leave a small gift on their Valentine’s locker or desk. These gifts are meant to be teasers. You can have them all be in theme with the final gift, or have them be hints to who you are. Remember: these gifts should be small, like a mini poem written on a cute card, their favorite chocolate bar, or a sweet treat.

She sends Percy to Camp Half Blood, a summer camp for demigods (on Long Island), where he learns that the father he never knew is Poseidon, God of the Sea.

By the window, sitting on a wooden tripod stool, was the most gruesome memento of all: a mummy. Not the wrapped-in-cloth kind, but a human female body shriveled to a husk. She wore a tie-dyed sundress, lots of beaded necklaces, and a headband over long black hair. The skin of her face was thin and leathery over her skull, and her eyes were glassy white slits, as if the real eyes had been replaced by marbles; she’d been dead a long, long time. Looking at her sent chills up my back. tripod: drievoetig And that was before she sat up on her stool gruesome: gruwelijk and opened her mouth. A green mist poured from a husk: een schil the mummy’s mouth, coiling over the floor in thick tendrils, a slit: een spleet hissing like twenty thousand snakes. I stumbled over myself to coil: kronkelen trying to get to the trapdoor, but it slammed shut. Inside my a tendril: een rank, een twijg head, I heard a voice, slithering into one ear and coiling around to swirl: wervelen my brain: I am the spirit of Delphi, speaker of the prophecies of Phoebus Apollo, slayer of the mighty Python. Approach, seeker, and ask.

But its presence didn’t feel evil, like my demonic math teacher Mrs. Dodds or the Minotaur. It felt more like the Three Fates I’d seen knitting the yarn outside the highway fruit stand: ancient, powerful, and definitely not human. But not particularly interested in killing me, either. I got up the courage to ask: “What is my destiny?” The mist swirled more thickly, collecting right in front of me and around the table with the pickled monster-part jars. Suddenly there were four men sitting around the table, playing cards. Their faces became clearer. It was Smelly Gabe and his buddies. My fists clenched, though I knew this poker party couldn’t be real. It was an illusion, made out of mist. Gabe turned toward me and spoke in the rasping voice of the Oracle: “You shall go west, and face the god who has turned.” His buddy on the right looked up and said in the same voice: “You shall find what was stolen, and see it safely returned.” The guy on the left threw in two poker chips, then said: “You shall be betrayed by one who calls you a friend.” Finally, Eddie, our building super, delivered the worst line of all: “And you shall fail to save what matters most, in the end.”

The figures began to dissolve. At first I was too stunned to say anything, but as the mist retreated, coiling into a huge green serpent and slithering back into the mouth of the mummy, I cried: “Wait! What do you mean? What friend? What will I fail to save?” The tail of the mist snake disappeared into the mummy’s mouth. She reclined back against the wall. Her mouth closed 45 tight, as if it hadn’t been open in a hundred years. the Minotaur: een wezen met The attic was silent again, abandoned, nothing but de kop van een stier en a room full of mementos. I got the feeling that I could het lichaam van een man stand here until I had cobwebs, too, and I wouldn’t learn to clench: samenknijpen anything else.

Layla’s party

< PREVIOUS blog post | NEXT blog post >

VA

Sunday, 6th February 1

Secret Blogger here, your one and only source into the scandalous lives of Brighton's youngsters. Yesterday it was the party of the year. Layla’s sweet sixteen will be something that will be talked about for years to come. You weren’t there? No problem, I will give you an update. Luckily, Morgan livestreamed the entire party.

5

As you might have seen in the video, Grace was the party animal of the evening. She danced the night away and had the time of her life. I would feel a bit embarrassed if I were her, because she cannot dance at all. Some people even made a meme of Grace doing her crazy moves. They should be ashamed of themselves. You shouldn’t hurt someone intentionally, and definitely not on social media. That’s cyberbullying!

I also heard that Sam and Dario were seen kissing! It might be fake news as well, because we have no proof, although Layla said she saw some text messages on Dario’s smartphone. They were from Sam. Have I made you curious? I haven’t leaked everything yet, so don’t forget to follow me and read my next blog in a couple of hours. See you! XOXO Posted in Brighton’s youngsters | 11 comments

Guys, have you read that blog post about yesterday’s party? Yes, I have! This Secret Blogger is full of rubbish! No kidding! Everything he wrote is misunderstood. I did not look in your phone, Dario! I just found it and put it somewhere safe so I could give it back to you. Grace Don’t get so upset, Layla. I think what he wrote about me is way worse. I had a great time yesterday evening. I know I have some rather strange moves, but that doesn’t mean someone should make fun of me. I didn’t laugh at anyone at the party who acted funny. Nathan I liked the blog. I think the Secret Blogger wanted to create something funny. He wrote it quite well. Morgan Are you kidding me? He did not do anything well! He lied about the fact that I livestreamed everything. It must have been someone else. I just took some photographs. Layla Who is this Secret Blogger? We need to find out! I didn’t want my party to end like this … By the way, Sam and Dario, is that picture of you two kissing real? Or did our Secret Blogger edit it? Sam Well … er … Everyone Oh, come on guys!

The only way to tolerate the thought of her mother sleeping with that man was

to get drunk – very drunk.

Luckily Blair and her friends came from the kind of families for whom drinking was as commonplace as blowing your nose. Their parents

The same thing went for everything else, like sex or drugs – as long as you kept up appearances, you were all right. But keep your panties on. That’s coming later. The man Blair was so upset about was Cyrus Rose, her mother’s new boyfriend. At that very moment Cyrus Rose was standing on the other side of the living room,

greeting the dinner guests. He

hidden in a shiny blue double-breasted suit. He jingled the change in his pocket, and when he took his jacket off, there were big, nasty sweat marks on his underarms.

He had a loud laugh and was very sweet to Blair’s mother. But he wasn’t Blair’s father. 40

Last year Blair’s father ran off to France with another man.

No kidding. They live in a chateau and run a vineyard together. Which is actually pretty cool if you think about it.

Of course none of that was Cyrus Rose’s fault, but that didn’t matter to Blair.

As far as Blair was concerned, Cyrus Rose was a completely annoying, fat, loser. 45

But tonight Blair was going to have to tolerate Cyrus Rose, because the dinner party her mother was giving was in his honor, and all the Waldorfs’ family friends were

there to meet him: the Bass family and their sons Chuck and Donald; Mr Farkas and

his daughter, Kati; the well-known actor Arthur Coates, his wife Titi, and their daughters,

Isabel, Regina, and Camilla; Captain and Mrs. Archibald and their son Nate.

The only ones still missing were Mr. and Mrs. Van der Woodsen whose teenage daughter, Serena, and son, Erik, were both away at school. to puke: overgeven to rant: tieren, tekeergaan to keep up appearances: doen alsof alles in orde is Saks: Amerikaans luxewarenhuis a vineyard: een wijngaard an honor (Br.

Blair was the one getting sloppy. And if Cyrus Rose harassing Nate, her boyfriend, she was going to have to go over there and spill her scotch all over his tacky Italian loafers. “You and Blair have been going out a long time, am I right?” Cyrus said, punching Nate in the arm.

People are not happy after a Floriday high school edited girls' yearbook photos to cover their chests The fight against school dress codes continues. By Carolyn Twersky

Bartram Trail High, a high school in Florida, got a lot of criticism after it was revealed that the yearbook photos of female students were edited to cover up their bodies.

5

Bartram Trail High School in St. Johns went viral last week after yearbooks were handed out and girls found their photos had been edited. Mostly, blocks of color were added to cover girls' chests. According to the New York Times, at least 80 photos were edited in total, all female students.

35

Another student, Alexandria Hess, told News4Jax that she was wearing a skirt that hit four inches above her knee when she was called out in front of her fellow students by a school administrator. "She said, 'We need to talk about what you’re wearing. You look like a hooker,'" Alexandria recalled. The incident resulted in an online petition to change the school's dress code, which now has almost 6,000 signatures.

"They need to recognize that it’s making girls feel ashamed of their bodies," Riley O'Keefe, a ninth-grader at BTHS told the Times. Riley also said that fellow students expressed that the changes made them feel "sexualized and exposed."

According to a spokeswoman, Christina Langston, it was a teacher who made the edits.

"I think it sends the message that our girls should be ashamed of their growing bodies. I think that's a horrible message to send out to these young girls that are going through these changes," said Adrian Bartlett, whose daughter had her photo edited. According to the Record, the school is offering refunds, but students must turn in their yearbooks to receive one.

This is not the first time Bartram Trail High, a public school of about 2,500 students, has had an issue with dress code. According to News4Jax the school was criticized after 31 girls received dress code violations in one day. Some of them were called out in the hallway, while others were taken out of class. Many of them were wearing tank tops under zipped up jackets.

MY FAVOURITE FOOTBALL STAR

This is Kevin De Bruyne. He is a Red Devil football player and his hobby became his profession. When he was young and went to school, his teachers always said he was such a good pupil, but they also noticed he really wanted to become a professional football player. I don’t think he has nice memories of his school time. Apparently, he seemed very shy because he didn't talk much, but as soon as he left the classroom and stepped on the football pitch, he became very stubborn. Luckily, nowadays he is happier than ever. He has found the love of his life, has wonderful children and every day he does what he likes: playing football. I hope I have a life like him later on!
