 Today during the class period I read The Great Turtle: Iroquois Origin story. I had to read the passage and answer questions to find out if I was understanding the story. This story was about the chief’s daughter becoming ill and someone tells them to lay her nest to a tree and dig up a hole and that is how she would be cured. But the tree fell through the hole and dragged the girl and fell down into the water. Two swans went to help her because she was too  beautiful to let her die. At the end of the story the animals end up making an island for the chief’s daughter and now it became the world’s island. This was a summary of the story I read from today’s assignment.

What is the most important aspect of your identiy? Tell what it is and why

Prompt Response:  I think the most important aspect of my identity is my culture. I think my culture is important because it is tied to my beliefs even though everyone's beliefs are different I think culture is a big part of your identity because it can define what food, clothes, and behaviors you like. Culture is something big because it can impact what you like what you eat and how you behave and also it can impact how you talk because there is a lot of languages that is why people are so different from one another. Summary: We had to make a mask based on our culture but I was not in class today Reflection:  I was not in class today.

Today’s article discussed how more people are choosing to live in the suburbs rather than in the city. When you become an adult, which lifestyle do you think you would prefer—city life or suburban life? Choose one and explain your reasons clearly.

  Prompt Response:  I believe living in the suburbs is better this is because living in the suburbs typically means having a more peaceful environment and as I grow older I don´t want to be stressed from like noise. I have always said I always wanted to have a big family and a big home with a big garden and the suburbs have increased space with larger homes. Another big reason suburbs are better to live in is because they have a lower cost of living in comparison to urban areas. Most suburbs have a strong sense of community and some have great schools. I believe living in the suburbs is more affordable, more peaceful, and people are more attached to their community. Summary:All I did was the commonlit Reflection:  I was not in class today.

Based on the two informational passages that you've read thus far this week, write about how you will personally strive to avoid student loan debt?

Prompt Response:  Based on what we have read in class and what Mr. Rease has told us student loan debt can ruin your life financially. Even though I know I won't be going to college I think the biggest thing is trying to not go for an unnecessary career because it can leave you with a lot of debt and no job. Before I had found out of debt I did really want to go to college but then I thought about it and what I want to be does not require college. I think a big misunderstanding is you have to go to college to get a good paying job and have a good life even though it has gone like that for many people there is people that go into debt and can never recover. There are some college students that work two jobs and go to college that is very stressful and they are doing that only for them not to go into debt. Summary: People don strive going to college there are many other ways to get a good life. Reflection:  There are some jobs that don´t require college all you need is the desir...
