Most people call it the trial of tears but we call it the trail where they cried or nu na hi du na tlo hi lu i. They made it clear that they cared little about our situation . They told us that either we willingly move, or by military force we would be moved. The Chiefs and Warriors signed the treaty, realizing they had no option if they wanted to or not. After the signing of the treaty, many saw their land and property sold before their own eyes. They killed many of the old at gun point. So I guess me and my daughter are lucky enough to be alive even thought we were forced to move. My daughter kept asking me questions like where are we going, or why are they making us leave and I did not even no how to answer her.

Some of Connecticut larger cities like Bridgeport, Hartford, and New Heaven are financially in trouble. Bridgeport is not far behind from being bankruptcy. The mayor says “We are doing ever possible to balance our budget”. Larger cities are feeling more strain then smaller ones. On New Years Eva, Wallingford’s mayor did his annual financial repot witch show they are on a slight budget shortfall.       

I recycle many ways. I recycle at home we put all are newspaper in a recycling bin. We also put are plaits in a recycling bin and once a week people come by and pick that up and the paper. Also at my house we recycle soda can, glass bottles, and excreta my dad and me bring them to a recycling place about once a month we really at school i think that recycling is a very important thing to our environment.

Veterans Day is a day when we celebrate all the veterans that fought in a war. I think this holiday is so important we honor those who have served in the war or military. We also honor them for all there courage for leaving to work for the military or fight in the war.  Some examples of Veterans memorial are World War II Memorial it honors the 16 million who fought in the war, the 400,000 who died, and the supported the war effort from home. I think that Veterans Day is an important holiday that we get to show are honor to all of those who fought for us in the wars.

Hi I’m Alyssa, I am in my last year of middle school. I like to do many things. I dance at a dance studio. I do tap, jazz, and toe. My favorite one of the three types of dance is toe. I always like to swim in my pool for fun. My favorite season is the summer. One of my favorite things to do in the summer is go to Six Flags with some people from my neighborhood. When we go to Six Flags my favorite thing there is the water park. I also like Fright Fest at Six Flags. At Fright Fest there are people the dress up as Halloween characters and there are haunted trails that you go on. These are some of the things that I like to do.  

If I could go any were in the world I would go to itlay because i have family that lives there that I have never ment.
