*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 in order to argue better, you must have good back up arguments. Eventually, I chose my own topic in order to write a persuasive essay. My main argument was "Pitbulls are good dogs to have."
*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 six word memoir about my guest, and constructed a paragraph describing why and how my guest has made an impacted my life in a positive way. I got to present my guest with these artifacts at the Blue Ribbon Ceremony on Friday November 16th. My favorite part of this activity was nothing. I didn't enjoy this presentation..
