I`m sorry this is late!

1. I would address the gun laws and encourage more laws to ensure safety while respecting people's rights. I would do this to lower the threat of school shootings and the overall threat they hold.

2. Combat climate change by supporting clean energy and programs to protect the environment. We have already seen some of the effects of climate change and should work on reversing it.

3. Invest more money into education especially in public schools to ensure opportunities for students with a lower income or location. 

4. I would try to make housing more affordable to reduce the homeless population and help families have stable living conditions.

5. I would strengthen natural disaster response and advance technology, (basically just put more funding), to help save the lives of the people and rebuild quicker. 

On January 9th in class, we did a Newsela on former president Jimmy Carter who unfortunately passed away on December 29th. The Newsela talked about how he got to be president, what he did during the presidency, and what he did as a former president.  Some viewed him as a weaker president and a better ex-president because of how much he contributed after his term.

I sent this to you the Newsela on email for some reason Newsela was not showing it in assignments and I wanted to make sure you got it.

Describe your personal approach to creativity. What steps do you follow when you’re working on a project. Tell me about a project you created that you were most proud of.

 I usually start with brainstorming and thinking of the basic idea that I want to do, sometimes when I have trouble I will use my resources and look on Pinterest or Google for inspiration. Never take it directly but create my own thing. I was really proud of this cake I made in the seventh grade of a cell, I liked baking cakes in general and I went all out and spent a lot of money on candy and other things to do the most. I spent probably 4 hours on it.  Today in class we worked on brainstorming, making thought bubbles, and ensuring you answer a writing prompt completely. We then answered a prompt relating to the color purple and chose a character to make the though bubbles about. I chose Sofia.

Summarize your holiday break. In addition, write about 5 personal goals that you want to achieve in 2025. Explain why you chose those goals.

During my holiday break, we stayed home for both weeks this year, we normally do not do this and plan some sort of trip. We celebrated Christmas and had a lot of parties with different parts of my family who were going out of town. My first goal this year is to get all A`s in all my classes and to have them all managed at all times. My second goal is to spend more time with my family before I go off to college, and with my brother before he goes back. My third goal is one of my New Year resolutions I have to work out at least 4 times a week and eat healthily. My fourth goal is to work on my social anxiety, forcing myself to have conversations I would normally avoid, and not being afraid to talk to new people, I want to do this before leaving for college so it will be easier for me to make friends in school.  My fifth goal for the year is to pick up a new hobby or sport, I recently just ended which I have been doing for 12 years, and now that I'm done I want to learn or try new thin...

What is the most challenging part of writing an essay for you? Is it brainstorming, organizing ideas, writing a strong thesis, or something else? How do you plan to overcome this challenge?

 I have never been good at grammer or punctuation when it comes to essays, we found out in 5th grade I was legally blind so I kind of never learned my grammer in elementary school. It is really bad and I know I need to work on it but even when I feel like I do I always forget it. Punctuation and figurative language also get me I am not great at those. Sometimes I have trouble coming up with the idea for my essay or get blocked when writing. I always have someone look over my paper because I know I didn`t spell or write something correctly. I also have Grammarly and other writing programs signed onto my computer so it will correct me as I go. Today in class we were going over how to write out essays again this time focusing on the body paragraph. We discussed the structure and information you should have in each body paragraph, and how they should be there. You must use correct evidence and also explain it correctly, then connect it back to your starting sentence. We then read the c...
