Dia de los Muertos - Pick a Person

I plan to construct a Dia los Muertos alter about Aaliyah. Her main character trait is warm-hearted. This person is known for; singing, danceing, and acting. This persons appearance is beautiful, skinny, great smile, and bangs in front of her one eye. Others think this person is very sweet, goofy, and easy to get along with. This person is known for saying, " It's hard to say what I want my legacy to be when I'm long gone. This person thought that she had everything great for her. A few items that I may include in my alter to present this person are, pictures and I'm not sure what else.

“Two Kinds” Character Analysis Paragraph

In the story Two Kinds" Jing-mei is a very sassy little girl. Others would see her as not willing to do what she's told. "When i stood up, I discovered my legs were shaking" this is how she felt after her piano show. Jing-mei looks like a little girl with crinkly black fuzz on the top of her head. My character feels very pressured. She has a very sass talk and is seems to think she'll get her way a lot. My character in real life is braty as a normal child would act.

"Two Kinds" Before You Read: Something You Don't Want to Do

I remember the day when I came back from Atlanta for summer, arriving back to my home unpacking clothes. I was shocked with the news that I had to come to San Pasqual Academy. I felt supprised and that my Foster mother was abandoning me. Then, it seems as though I was coming to a place I had not none of. When it was all over I was not as mad as I thought I'd be. I felt relieved from being in that home.

"Everyday Use" Before You Read: Tradition

Fifteen years from now, I will give my girl child my birthstone necklace. This tradition will symbylize the love and responsibility of my children and thier children's children. One of my happy memories of this tradition will be, seeing my child walking around with this peice of jewlery. It will make me happy and prideful. I will share this with my children by thier gender and behavior. By sharing this tradition with future generations, I hope it is respected.
