Persuasive Writing: To begin writing persuasively, we learned how to effectively argue. We discussed different cases, such as wearing armbands to school and wearing band t-shirts to school. I learned... Eventually, I chose my own topic in order to write a persuasive essay. My main argument was... Percy Jackson the Lighting Thief is the best book.
*Blue Ribbon Ceremony: I chose someone that made a positive difference in my life. In preparation for the Blue Ribbon Ceremony, I decorated a blue ribbon, wrote a 6-word memoir about my guest, and constructed a paragraph describing why and how my guest impacted my life in a positive way. I got to present my guest with these artifacts at the Blue Ribbon Ceremony on Friday, November 16, 2012. My favorite part of this activity was... making the blue ribbon and reading my paragraph to my grandpa Charlie.

In English we are doing an entrepreneurship group project. The business I choose for my group is the 1,2,3 Dollar Store. My group and I were able to interview the owner Gar Houcks on December eighth at eight clock. I though the most instering thing about him is he used to own a pharmacy in Eagle Grove.He also has a daughter who manginess the pharmacy. I though those were the most instering things about him.
