ted talk project
WHAT IS IT?
We were asked to give a "Ted Talk" like presentation about something we are passionate about and that we know a lot about. I chose to do a presentation on the racial wage gap, and how it can change the life of those affected by it. We created a power point to go along with the part of our presentation. I created statistics to support my topic and the things I had to say about it. I power point had quotes and statistics to back up my claims.

memoir
WHAT IS IT?
We were asked to write a memoir about an important moment in our life that shaped who we are today. We had to show how this impacts our life, and use proper sentence structure, absolute phrases, and detail to let the reader know that this event was important in who we are as people. I wrote my memoir on an assignment that I was given that pushed me to realize that I am capable of hard work. This assignment taught me that hard work pays off, and that you reap what you sow. This assignment was revised and edited multiple times by my peers and myself.

myself
WHO AM I?
I was asked to put a current picture of myself. In the picture below I'm with my pal Maya and it was during our 8th grade Disneyland trip. She decided that she needed to buy a Winnie the Pooh stuffed animal so that's what's here. I decided to pick this picture because it shows that I'm strong enough to carry Maya, so why wouldn't I include it. Plus we're matching with our hats and I think that this picture really describes my personality: weird.
