Reading Reflection:

By -
Reading is not something I like to do. (Not at all) In the 7th Grade I wasn’t the kind of person who really liked reading. I use to hate reading, and I really didn’t care if I improve my reading level or not.

NOW is a different thing. The Minute I started the 8th grade I knew I would get a chance to discover who I really am and what my hobbies really are. In the 8th grade I have grown and achieved a lot. I can possibly say that I am a more mature person then what I use to be in the 6th and 7th grade.

One thing I realize is that I sort of like reading. (Not a lot) but one thing I could say is that if I don’t really like the book I’m reading, I would just not read at all. In better words I like choosing really carefully the book i want to read next.


Mr. Locker and Ms. Shah helped me a lot with my reading this year. One way they helped me was by letting me read one page by my self and then ask me what I just read about. If I got to the point where I couldn’t understand a word they would tell me to read the sentence over and try to fit it in with the sentence…

Throughout the 8th grade I have moved four or more reading levels up. I think I used to be a level N-M either one. But NOW I ‘m a level Z. (YAY) I am really glad that I actually accomplished my goal. My goal was to be able to read a level Z book by the end of the 8th grade. And I did it Yay.

Why do we buy junk food? Why is fast food cheaper than fruits and vegetables? How can we change our diets? Government Subsidies are funding that are given to big factory farms. Government subsidies should go to fruits and vegetables, instead of only corn and soy farms. I believe so because fruits and vegetables could lead us to live longer and have a healthy body and heart. Government subsidies could be better for the people if the government gives them to healthy crops. Sugar and corn can damage our bodies in many ways. We can develop diabetes, we can gain a lot of wait and become lazy. Last but not least we can get many diseases from meat or any other crops that contain corn. Cows are supposed to eat grass not corn. If cows eat a lot of corn they can get sick and develop Ecoli. These diseases can affect us just like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, hypertension or osteoarthritis; does, if we don't watch what we are eating. We can also get infected by these diseas...

Was The Spanish American War A "Just" war?

By -
I think that it was okay to declare war against Spain because the U.S took in Cuba.The U.S was helping Cuba with the war because Cuba was a mess. I think it wasn't okay the way the U.S was acting like imperalist, we did help Cuba, but we didn't give them complete freedom. The foreign policy was unfair because it didn't give Cuba the complete freedom we were controlling them a little. The U.S fought against Spain and the U.S won. After that Cuba got a new constitution. The imperalist supported the U.S foreign policy because they didn't believe in people having a choice and people having their own beliefs. The imperalist wanted to tell people what to do and to control them. The imperalist believe in having their own way and not having equal rights for everybody. The imperalist believed that god has marked the American people as his chosen nation to finally lead in the regeneration of the world. The anti-imperalist were against the foreign policy because they don...
