servcicelearning

Last week for service learning we went to the imc an researched information for our product of recyle. We had to find different type of information about what can be recylcled and how much of it is really recycled and thrown away. I found out that for paper to be fecyled it has to be spotless from food an any other substance that can harm it from not being able to get recycled.

Last friday for service learning me nad my recyling group decided to take a trip around the center city area. The reason for us doing this to se how much trash was down here and to compare it to the amount of trash in our neighborhoods. Walking block after block we only found a little amount of trash. The reason for this may be because the claening crew cleans consistently down here to keep trash from off the ground for the torist to havea better first impression of philadelphia. The differnce in the area of the city it sems like the the clean-up crew pays more attention to. Next wek we our expected to bring in information about different recyling materials to find out as much information we can on recyling.

servicelearning

Last friday april 11 2008 my service learning project with recyling stared off with a good start we spent the period jotting down ideas about how we can save our enviorment soon. one idea that i liked is keeping track of the trash overa weeks period of time then bringing the results back to school. i think as service learning progresses we will find better ways to cuut down the trash in " dirty" philadlphia.

NHD

At first i thought NHD was going to be hard but i realized it was easy i just had to construct my time wisely. My topic for nhd was Richard Allen and the search for equality during colonial times. i choose to do this topic because the idea of richard Allen was bought to me by my sister because she said it dealt with the topic conflict and compromise. I learned alot about this man he was a leader not only for black people but for white people too. I would say the hardest part of my project was finding some primary sources and adding "meat" to my paper so it can be strong enough to make it to cities. I was glad i worked by myself because i was able to put my own little twist to my paper. Next year i would try to start writting my paper sooner that way at the end i wont be rushing to add stuff and make my paper even better. Overall i was satisfied with my paper because i was elected to go to cities.

One poet and writer that caught my attention was Sonia Sanchhez. Her work and the accoplishments that she acieved inspired me to acheive my goals.She started writting at an young age. Sonia had many major accomplishments thougrhout her life. Also i believe she still plays a major part in writting still today.

Sonia Sanchez was born in the year 1934 and is still living today. She was raised in Birmingham, Alabama, but moved to Harlem,New York when she was nine years old.Sonia stuttered as a child so it was hard for her to communicate with other people, so she began to write. Her family told her that her writting rhymed and she was writting poetry. Sonia studidied political scince at huter college.When she graduated she studied poetry with Louis Bogan.

Sonia was awarded many awards.One of them were the peace and freedom award from the womens international leauge in 1988.Also another award she recieved was the American Book Award from the before columbus foundation for the book Homegirls in 1985.Sonia Sanchez wrote many books and poems.

Sonia Sanchez means alot to me and made me realize that just because you have a weakness doesnt me you cant over come it. I believe people today still can learn from her because she writes about everything most likely stuff you will go through in the future.She is an inspiration to some people cause she overcomes her obstacles in the way and use them for a stepping stone to do better things.

at what age should children be able tot ake on a lover

I believe children should be able to take on a lover at any age. Some of the reasons why i think u should be able to is because some of the conflict may be between the two parent. You cant choose who you fall in love with. Girls mature faster than boys.

First because some of the conflict have to do with the parents. What i mean by this is that say if the parents dont like eachother they wouldnt want the kids dating eachother. They dont care about the kids feeling. The arents our going to find the littlest things to break up the couple which is the difference of age.

You cant choose who you fall in love with. Putting a age on who you should be with is wrong. Because you cant choose who the heart wants and falls for its just not that easy.People our going to do it anyway so they mind as well make it no age.

Girls mature faster than boys. In some cases girl mature faster than boys so they our going to be looking for somebody on their level it is not intentional it just happens that way sometimes.But if you cant find nobody your age acting like you going to find somebody who is and if that person happens to be older it should be np priblem.

All in all, i believe there should be no age consent. First is because most of time it is a conflict between the two parents. You cant choose who you fall in love with. In some cases girls mature faster than boys. There shouldnt be no age to take on a lover
