New Class Do Now 12/2

New class 

       I think we should have a law class because it is could to know what is right from wrong and to know how the law system works. This class would meet at 7th period for only a half year course. This class would be more hands on, go on a bunch of field trips, and have a lot of projects rather than homework. The students could practice what goes in a courtroom.
       Many speakers will also come in to speak on topics. I think this class is good to have and it will provide great info for young adults.

Summer Vacation 2015

North Carolina (Outer Banks)

This summer my family and all of my cousins are going on a big family vacation to North Carolina. We will probably stay in the small town of Corolla. Corolla has the nicest beach and the biggest houses on the island. There are also many shops and activities you can do on the whole island like wave running or jet skiing.
