A Persuasive Essay
I believe that students should have physical education and health in class. Students need to run around and exercise. Students also need to learn about the body. Taking physical education is a great way to help you stay in shape. Taking health class lets you learn about the body and teaches students about whats good and whats not. This is why I believe students should have physical education and health.
Here, in C.I.S 339x, during physical education, what we know as gym, we exercise as our warm-up, then do physical fitness activities. We play fun activities like kickball, basketball, and more. Sometimes, we have a day for just fitness where we can do push-ups, sit-ups, weight lifting, and more. Physical education is an important way to stay in shape.
During health class, I am learning about food in the food pyramid on the website known as mypyramid.gov. There are six different groups:grains, fruit, vegetables, oils, meat and beans, and milk. We learn how to take control of our diet. That is very important to know. These are the reasons why I believe that students should have physical education and health in class.

Journal Assignment Two-Step Equations
Name: Desire Ramos
T-mobile charges $34.99 a month for phone service. They also charge $0.48 per minute for long distance calls. If Joshua's bill was $64.75, how many minutes of long distance calls did she make?
Part A - Write an equation that can be used to solve the problem.
Equation: $64.75 = $34.99 + $0.48m
Part B - Solve your equation and answer the question in a complete
sentence.
($64.75 - $34.99) ÷ $0.48
($29.76) ÷ $0.48
62
I got my answer by first subtracting $34.99 from $64.75. My answer was $29.76. Next, I divided $0.48 into $29.76. The quotient was 62. My answer was 62 minutes or 1 hour and 2 minutes.

My Social Studies Reflection
So far in social studies, I have learned many things. Write now I am learning about many things. I learned about the Boston Massacre, The Acts,(The Stamp Act and The Tea Act), and more. But all of these things led to the American Revolution. The Boston Massacre was many deaths. It was between the colonists and the British. This started from the acts. These acts were passed down by the British. The colonists had no say. This made the colonists angry. The colonists attacked British Soldiers. They threw rocks and sticks at them. The Soldiers panicked and started shooting. Six colonists were killed and three colonists were injured. The British and the Colonies went to war, known as the American Revolution.
