4th Quarter goals

Last quarter i wasn't in school for longer than a month, so im not sure what my grades were, but the quarter before that i got a 4.0 and that was probably my best accomplishment. This quarter, I'm aiming for a 3.5 or higher, and to achieve this i must 1. make sure i do all of my homework, every night. 2. try not to get distracted. and 3. make sure school comes before anything.

Historical Approach Paragraph

Understanding history can help readers understand a book or story better, because when readers are more informed of things that have gone on in history, things we learn about today will make much more sense. for example, if you're reading a book about the holocaust and you know about concentration camps, then things will make a lot more sense when its talking about these places Jewish people were sent. this shows that you are well educated when it comes to history, and that it will be easier for people to understand books. now that i understand this, i will make sure to take my time to listen and pay attention to history because i know it will pay off later on in my reading.
