English
With Ms. Sveiven
In English, we learned all about different types of writing, such as narrative and informative. We read a novel called "The Giver" by Lois Lowry and many news articles, some fake and some reliable.
For this assignment we had to pick and read a article and write comments about it. I chose the Boba article.

REFLECTIONS
What was your favorite part of this year? This could be about an assignment, a teacher, or a school experience.
My favorite part of this year was learning new things and having better grades. I'm also excited for graduation this year. But my favorite assignments was in green architecture. I learned a lot on how to create stuff on sketch up.I learned that a lot of architects use it before building something for a visual representation. I think its super cool that people can make so many cool structures/ designs on a building.
