Beginning of year Reflections
So far this year I have really enjoyed social studies. I also learned that the 400 years of silence were really boring. This year I’m looking forward to all the projects. I also am having a lot of fun in band.
My Summer
This summer my family and I went to the U.P. and Mackinac island trip. Also, we went to traverse city. We camped a lot this summer. We went to the Holland State park twice, Once with my grandparent and the other with our friends. We also went to the conference grounds. Once with my cousins and once with Noah T. When we were at the conference ground with Noah, we made cardboard boats and put them in Lake Michigan. We had lots of fun at the beach and with the youth group there. I also worked for my Dad this summer stacking bricks. So to wrap up my summer I hung out with friends and was camping a lot.
Living On A Dollar A Day – Lowe
We watched living on a Dollar a Day and it changed my thoughts about poverty. I didn’t know that living on a dollar a day could harsh. But they did not know when they were going to receive money and that can be hard, like when market day came each week they would hope they had enough money to get food for the week. So living in poverty is very hard.

Why would you come with 300 to 400 people with clubs and other weapons walking towards the customs house. It would look like you want to attack the customs house.
