1. Persuasive Essay (art in schools)
ESSAYWhat makes school better? I tell you what in a few moments first Ill introduce my self, Im Thomas Ray Gonzalez I Attend Eagles Peak, I am 14 years old and what I think what will make school better is... A gym room with A/C soThat way kids will be fit and stay cool.what also is good for school is having a grass field for a safer break area. We also learn to interact witheach other and get along.what I also think is good is having a water and snackbreak to get fuel for more learning and plus we need energy to be active and learn.What I think what will be fun and educational is to have field trips around the community to have a little taste on what’s going on in are beautiful communities when we are in school working.I think another good way to learn is to visit different countries we could experience how they live and know about there culture. We could learn how to interact with each other even if they speak another language.Another way of learning is by having more ARTS.These are probably the best way we well send the money if you give us any.These things will help students learn, beactive, and to interact with others. ARTS,grassfield to be safer, educational fied trips, P.E room with A/C to be physically fit, and to visit other countries so we won’t feel that schools aren’t worth it wich they aren’t.

3. Response to Literature
Response to Literature

The book “Lord of the Flies” is about a group of boys who survive a plane crash and

try to survive while there their and see what happens.

The conch shell is the reason why the boys get together and try to set things right,

it’s also a courtroom, that’s the reason they have a little bit of organization on the

island,

and last the conch shell is a microphone because it gives all the boys a voice to

speak with in the meetings.

The chief is also a big part on how they survive in this story because he is the

reason why they get to eat meat, he is also the reason why they get a little more

organized because he is the one who blows the conch to gain order, and last he

puts the rules on the island like for example he made the rule on only speaking if

you have the conch.

The fire is a big help in the book because that is how they cook the meat they

eat, its also the reason they have light to see in the dark when needed, and the

biggest reason for the fire in this book is it is a signal for a boat to come for them

if one is near by, and that is how they survive. By: Thomas Ray Gonzalez

summary#1 NON-FICTION
The book “A long hard journey” is about when African Americans were no

longer slaves but since they had no place to go too or money they

had to work for the people who kept them as slaves.

But a guy named George Pullman who owned a train company

hired the ex-slaves as porters and that was considered a great job

because they where highly respected and they could flirt easier

because being a porter was attractive to the girls, but there was also

a problem being a porter because there was a chance of being

harassed by some passengers.

Porters where very lucky because they could visit other places where

the train is going to and on the way they would meet people who are

very

interesting to talk too.

But if one of the Porters quit they have to go to court and the court

people tell him to work again and make the person sign a contract to

make them never quit from that job.
