Johnny, I find it very interesting that your writing about behavioral addiction because you never read about this type of addiction. It's interesting that genetics play a role in the formation of this addiction. I can't wait to see what you include in your essay about addiction.
Hailey, I really enjoyed reading about your articles. I can't wait to see what your final essay looks like. I have never read anything that talks about these topics, so this is all new information to me. I find it really interesting that athletes think that their peers look...
Loreanny, I really enjoyed reading your interpretation of the book "To Kill a Mockingbird". I think you had a very good analysis of the plot, and I highly agree with all the points you made. I also just watched a movie about racism called "Selma". However, this movie touches...
Jovana, I enjoyed reading about your life! You have amazing interests and hobbies and a great character. I loved reading about how your passionate about music, and how you have kept it throughout your whole life. I have not had the same passion for music as you have had,...
Penelope, I really enjoyed reading about your topic. This is something that I can relate to because I know a lot of people, including myself, who believe strongly in astrology. I would love to hear more about different research and studies that have been done to prove the accuracy...
Hello Celeste, your presentation was very fascinating and captured the meaning of the book in a very good light. This is one of my favorite stories and the way you explained it made me remember why I loved reading it so much. This book does a great job with...
I this this is an amazing topic to do this essay on because there is much to be said about it. You did a great job with introducing a couple of reasons as to why human are so amused by the mystery of murders. I hope you get into...
I think that you made a really good point. You had good examples and data that supported your idea that schools should limit students online speech. However, maybe you could try adding some counter arguments and include examples of how you would argue against these counter arguments. I do...
Adelphe, I found your article very interesting, because of all the ways you explained some of the events that occur in the video. For example, I like where you said that the guns being treated with care shows how Americans care more about keeping the second amendment, than those...
Your article is very fascinating and reaffirmed many things I have learned in my history classes. I like how you related this information to the book The Help because I think that is one of the books that best represents the situation in which Blacks lived. Personally, I think...
Angela, I found this very interesting to read. I like the way you showed how this can be seen as a real law, but how it can also be seen as something made up. I enjoyed reading how you applied this to your life and the outcomes that came...
Jada, I think you make a very interesting point as to why this is an issue. I like how you used a resource to support your idea that some schools have little purpose for youth. I think it would be more helpful if you found some articles directly from...
Although it should be surprising that the US has half of the worlds owned guns, and one of the highest gun related homicide rates in the world, it is not that surprising considering all the events that have happened recently. I also like that you mentioned that other nations...
David, I really like the way you contrasted both separate questions. When you talked about how not one single person can program anything and everything, it really made me wonder why people always say "everything happens for a reason", even though it technically can't. There are many interesting documentaries...
Clara, I think you provide really valid reasons as to why people think the death penalty should be either legal, or illegal. The quote from Pope Francis was very interesting to read and taught me how the Catholic Church views this issue, which I didn't know before. However, I...
Olivia, I like how you used both sides of the argument to address the controversy over milk. However, the cons of drinking milk stood out more to me, because it surprised me how many risks there are when it comes to the production of milk which people tend to...
