Homework

Why do we have homework? Is it because the teachers want us to learn or because their mean? I think we have homework to help us understand what the teachers are teaching us. I wish we didn’t have homework because it’s boring and hard, plus it takes up time when we could be with friends or outside. It would be better to just do practice in class because if we have a question we can ask the teacher but with homework you can’t do that unless your parents know how to help you. I wish I could go back in time and stop the person who invented homework but, then we all might be stupid because we wouldn’t learn how to work by ourselves and we wouldn’t learn anything, so I guess homework is a good thing but it’s really boring.

Intro for Streetwise (Team Jacob)

It was a cold night and there were fights all night long. Living on the streets was never what I wanted, I'm not like other homeless people. I came from a family, born and grew up in a home. when I was little I was afraid of homeless people, until I became one. My life will never be the same, now that I've spent long nights on the streets, living in a box, never knowing who's near,or if you'll even make it thought the night. Some people over look homeless people, there not that different, they just need help.

Streetwise Response

Homeless people are just like us but people never notice or help them. Streetwise is about a boy named Kyle who doesn't like homeless people and he doesn't understand them, until he becomes one. Kyle doesn't have a home and every day he has to look for food or ask people for money. The daily struggle for Kyle is when he has to go to shelters and there always crowded and there are fights every night. Kyle is always trying to stay away from gangs because he knows they will try to beat him up and take his cloths. Eventually Kyle gets a job and a apartment and he's living a normal life but now he always tries to help the homeless.

I'm get to go shopping because my mom is going to give me money so it's goning to be really cool and I can't wait!!!
