Persuasive essay: "Dont feel more or less than anybody else". In the story the Outsiders Ponyboy has a very scary expirience. His family doesnt like the other gang. It took two people to change everything.

This story talks about a boy named Ponyboy. He doesnt have a mom or a dad but lives with his 2 brothers. Darry and Sodapop.They are all greasers but on the other side are the socs. (The rich kids).

In the story Jhonny (ponys BFFL) kills a soc because they were drowning ponyboy. Since they didnt want to get caught they ran away. When they were going to go confess what they had done they saved some kids from dieng in a fire. They were all heros. But Jhonny got badly hurt. Dally ponys other friend also got hurt. So they all went to the hospital.

After alot of worring came the big fight. The greasers against the socs. The the greasers and the socs faught until the greasers finally won! But Jhonny had died. Dally couldnt live without Jhonny so on purpose he robbed a store and got shot by police. But that was what he wanted. So, he died happy.

The socs thought that only because they were rich they were going to get everything they wanted. But it doen't matter if your rich or poor. Our differences make us special. So remember" Dont fell more or less than anybody else".


One of my big problems: My huge problemThe biggest problem that I have confronted was when I was little. When I was little I went to the hospital to get stiches because my dog bit me in the lip. It was very hard not to cry or to move but I confronted my fear. I got really scared because of the needle they were going to put on my lip. But I learned a very important lesson .
School essay : School essayHi, we are representing Eagles Peak charter school .We want to make our school better because we want to make our school funner and a great place to learn. Our first idea was to have snack and water breaks in between classes. We want this because kids need food to keep them energy leveled. We also think we should have more sports equipment so that we can have our daily need of exercise. We think that it’s important to have air conditioning in the class because some kids cant thing when there hot tired and sweaty. Also we would like more class equipment because kids will stay focused and it will be a funner way to learn. The next thing we would like is more elective classes. We want this so that kids will like school more, get motivated, and so kids like elective classes. We would like some grass and a playground because first of all, grass would prevent kids from getting hurt, and a playground so that kids will have more fun at school. The next thing we would like next is more landscape. We would like this because flowers and trees make people get more attracted to the school and so our school will look prettier. The next thing is that we should have after school care and clubs because first of all kids cant be picked up at the right time and so that kids wont get bored.Fundraisers are good for the school because it helps raise money for our school. After school tutors are very much needed. We need this so that kids that need help get help, and so that kids get a better education.Thank you for talking the time to read some of the things that are important to our school!
fiction summary: This story ia about a woman called Mrs. Lalluela Bates Washington Jones and a boy called Roger. In this story Roger learns not to steal from other people he should ask. He also learns to be trust worthy. It all starts like this.
Mrs. Jones was walking home from work when she kells a push. A boy grabbed her pocket book and started running for it.Only Mrs. Jones was lucky because he fell from the weight of the pocket book. Mrs. Jones got him up and she took hom home. When they got home she told the boy to wash his face because he was dirty.When he was all done she made dinner. While they were eating Mrs. Jones told the boy all she did when she was little. She also asked his name, his name was Roger. She asked him why he was stealing her pocket book he said he only wanted some shoes.
Mrs. Jones told him that it wasnt good to steal. If he wants something he should ask for it.Mrs. Jones gave Roger $10 to buy his shoes.Roger left but learned a very important lesson not to ever steal ever again. Mrs. Jones wached as he dissapeared into the lights knowing that she trusted him!
Non-fiction summary: We think that it is okto just recycle a bottle of water but we dont think second thoughts. The plasticis made out of a chemical called PET (plyethylene terephahalate). This maens that the bottle or soda you drink is not going to be used in again.
Thats why in Europe scientist found a way to convert PET to PHA. That way it dissolves and can be used in medixal serveses.
Scientist found out what made all this. Bactiria would desolve and make PHA. This is realy amazing. It would be very important . Like a next step to recycling bottles.
Christmas day in the morning By: Vanessa Cruz: Don’t you sometimes think that giving is the best way to make somebody happy ? Well Rob learned that very same thing the day before Christmas. One morning Rob was asleep and he had to get up to go help his father with chores. When suddenly he heard his father say some thing really nice. That made Rob think " my father really loves me". So the day before Christmas Rob thought. He didn't want to give his dad a tie like he did every year. He wanted to give him something very special. So he got up at 5:00 in the morning. He went to the barn and started milking the cows. He was so exited. His dad was going to go to the barn and see that the milking was done. So he did that and quickly went back to bed. His father went to the barn and found the milking done. He was so happy. He quickly ran to Robs room and hugged him. This was the best gift anybody had ever given him! Rob learned that to make yourself happy you have to make somebody happy first. Rob was a very good boy and loved his father dearly. He knew his father loved him to! So remember to make yourself happy you have to make somebody else happy first!
