- Math test Wed. Study (3D geometry, net, isometric, top/front/side views, volume, surface area)

- brainstorm at least 8 ideas for the new PEE essay (Should pop be sold at schools?)
- use conjunctions to explain, give examples
- learn to use less personal pronouns, ask questions
- start a sentence with adverbs or conjunctions

e.g. Since exercise is very important to our health, it is important to participate in some outdoor activities each day.  Therefore DPA must be a mandatory exercise for all students in each school.

Example of the pop essay

Soft Drinks should not be allowed in schools and could easily be replaced by healthier drinks. Soft drinks are extremely sugary and fattening. Many young children suffer obesity because of the sugary, addictive drink.  Furthermore, children who aren’t allowed to drink pop can simply buy them from school. Kids could bring fruit juice instead since they have a serving of fruit and vegetables, they provide nutrition, and they’re far less sugary than soft drinks. Unlike unhealthy pop, juice does not cause hyperactivity n interfere with a child’s learning. Pure, refreshing water and milk are also fantastic alternatives to soft drinks since they have many health benefits. It is possible to replace harmful pop with healthy alternatives so that less youthful children will become obese and they can focus in class.

      Pop is only for special occasions. If students drink it everyday at lunch, they won’t eat their lunches since they would be very full. And afterwards, the excited, hyper kids would suddenly become drowsy and tired. Moreover, students might not be able to exercise if the enormous amount of soda they mindlessly consume everyday gives the kids painful stomach aches or cramps. Of course, students need to make good decisions about what they should eat or drink, but how come so many young children become overweight because of it? Most parents don’t agree with their children becoming overweight and drinking pop every single day.
