About English
The teacher is Mrs. Hill. She is my cousin. I am not looking forward to it so much. It is sort of fun. I really will look forward to this class.

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 that you have to have skill to win an argument. Eventually, I chose my own topic in order to write a persuasive essay. My main argument was that Iowa State is the best Iowan college football team.
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 6-word memoir about my guest, and constructed a paragraph describing why and how my guest impacted my life in a positive way. I got to present my guest with these artifacts at the Blue Ribbon Ceremony on Friday, November 16, 2012. My favorite part of this activity was getting the chance to connect with my mentor.

The business I chose for this project is Clear Lake Bank & Trust. My group and I were able to interview Ray Hewitt on December 12th. One of the most interesting things I learned from the interview was Ray Hewitt was there for 12 years. I am looking forward to our documentary.
