Hi Shannon,
Good job with this infographic! I completely agree with your argument and the evidence you used to support it was very persuasive. The infographic I helped to created with my team was in support of Planned Parenthood and had to do with similar topics.

Hi Shannon! I agree with you about Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain not being racist. I think the book was more of a statement against racism even though that’s something that many people debate about. Something I’d like to commend you on is your use of comparing Huck Finn to now. The connection was really interesting, I believe.
A question that I have for you is why might you think others would find this book racist? This book has such a vast conflicting audience, whether people believe Huck Finn is racist or that it’s not so I believe that it is important to think about how someone who might oppose your view would view the book.
I think that you did a really good job explaining your point of view on this book and I think the quote you used fit in and worked really well for you.

This is really good! It is extremely important to have a separation of church and state, not only because it’s not okay to force your views upon others, but because not everyone believes the same thing.

Shannon, I think this is very insightful. It really opened my eyes about some of the insider struggles of our government. Forcing views in someone is definitely not the way to go about things, and being in America we are a melting pot and we all don’t believe in the same things which is okay.

I really like how you thought about what kids in abusive families have to go through and all the struggles that take place in their life. This quote did seem pretty clear at showing that and i agree with the path you took in analyzing it. Good job!!!!

Shannon, I really like how you wrote about your love of music and how it is a huge part of your life! I can relate that trying to become better at something, especially at playing an instrument, often requires hard work and can be frustrating, but it’s the best feeling when your hard work pays off at the end.

This is really good! I’m glad that you wrote about something I know that is a big part of your life. Playing an instrument is definitely something that you have to work for and to put in so many years into it is a huge accomplishment.

I like your post and how you wrote about how a hobby can changes a life. I think it is very important to have something in your life that is important for you, for example a sport or a club.

This is really interesting! I’m also in Okemos and the music program is pretty intense, so I can understand the frustration that comes with playing an instrument. But after many years, I can see how playing an instrument can be rewarding.

Heyo I’m your secret writing pal!
