Budget Cuts letter

My name is Esteban Rodriguez and I am a 8th grader at Urban Promise Academy in Oakland C.A. I am writing you because I want to tell you my opinion about budget cut's. Urban Promise Academy needs funding to get new supplies and materials for next year 6th grade students. My education is very important to me because i need to learn new stuff in school to be successful. Please support my education by letting california vote on the tax extension measure. i want people to vote for budget cut's

         Sincerely
         Esteban Rodriguez

College Trip Reflection

My experience I had on being on the college's campus is that the building were big and some were small. other experience i had was the stores they had to buy the books. on Santa Barbara they had a beach and they could have surf. on cal poly they had a farm and students can study to farmers. on Santa Cruz they had a beach and fields.

what i liked about the college was that it was really big and was long. what i didn't like about college is that you have to pay a lot's of money to buy books. i maybe will try and apply to some of them. i like the college's and the campus was cool.

expo reflection

My expo went good because the group ask questions. the group ask questions and explain their ideas. the moms were saying their feelins for gangs. and they live near gangs. they are afraid of gangs because they can shoot anywhere and kill sometimes someone else that the didnt want to shoot at. they asked question if any one also lived near gangs and not many of them live near gang. we shared personal experences with gangs
