Graduation

I would like to go to college after high school. To achieve this, I need to study more. I usually don't study for quizzes and stuff. I also need to put more effort into some things. Sometimes, I don't try very hard on some assignments. These are a couple things I need to do to achieve my goal.

We should go home early.

We should go home early because it is snowing really really bad. So, before it gets even worse, we should be able to go home. And also, I have to pee really really really bad and I don't like public bathrooms. So we should all be able to go home for these reasons.

American Culture

There are some things you should know about American culture. People are sarcastic a lot. For example, if someone says "I'm going to kill you," they are most likely joking around and won't actually kill you. Another thing is that you can dress whatever way you want. But if you dress like a pirate or something, people will stare at you. These are a couple things that a foreign exchange student should know about American Culture.

Lobster

I don't think that they should go for the Sustainable Label. I think this because it was based on a company not from around here. It would change the culture because the lobster is a part of Maine culture. We've been fishing for lobster for many years. So, I think they shouldn't go for the sustainable label.

Ethnicity

Ethnicity is the state of belonging to a social group that has a common national or cultural tradition. It is different in some ways from culture. Culture is how people live. So the difference is that ethnicity is what group of people you belong to (your background) and culture is how you live.

Culture

Culture to me is you and your family's way of life. Like how you live and your traditions and stuff. My culture would be having my mom's side of the family coming over to my house on Christmas. Another would be that I am French, Irish, and Italian. Culture is where you're from and how you live.

Justice Project

I think that there are ways to make the project easier/better for next year's students. Like, explain more. When we did the bibliography, it was hard because I wasn't sure how to do it. I think you should keep the outline thing. It made it a lot easier when writing the essay. So, that's about all I think of for making it better.
