Are you proud of your country?
     Are you proud of your country? Are you someone that would do anything to keep your rights and freedom? I defiantly am. In America we all celebrate the fourth of July which is the day that we fought the British for independence. In 1776 Ben Franklin signed the declaration.
     The American flag represents the freedom of America. The colors that are on the flag are red, blue, and white. There are fifty stars on the flag to represent the fifty states. There is an American flag in every classroom in every school in America. Every morning all students say the pledge of allegiance. “I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible and justice for all”.
     In Philadelphia Pennsylvania there is the liberty bell, which cracked when it was first rung after the arrival in Philadelphia. The liberty bell symbolizes America’s freedom from Britain. It is named the liberty bell because of the freedom it symbolized to our country.
     What I like about America is that we have freedom. I also like that we have the right to say what we want. I like that we have can wear what kind of shirts, pants, shoes, jewelry, and make-up we want and also have different hair colors and styles. I like that every kid gets an education, and is able to be whatever religion they want. I like that when you are the age of eighteen or older you can vote for who you want to be president, mayor, and/or governor. I also like that you can have any pet you want. I also like that you can have any kind of job that you want, like cooking, teaching, singing, or dancing. I like that you can marry who ever you want, and be friends with who ever you want.
     This proves that I am proud of my country. I love living in America because we have freedom and rights. I would do anything to keep that freedom and those rights for a very long time.

Halloween

 This Halloween I am being a dead person from the army.I like Halloween because I like being scared.On Halloween night me and my friends go trick-or treating and get a lot of candy.On Halloween on a street there is a haunted house.I went in there a couple years ago and it was really really scary.There were fake dead bodies everywhere with fake blood and saws and knifes.I was screaming on every corner that I turned.The day before Halloween me and my family carve pumpkins and put the outside.We also decorate the front yard with some scary things.
