Winter Break
I can’t remember much about my first couple winter breaks, but I can clearly remember some of the recent ones. During most of my Winter Breaks, I do many enjoyable things to keep busy. My sister and I usually make fun lists of stuff we can do during the break, so we don’t get bored. I also like watching Christmas movies with my family! When I 'm not spending time with my family, I am most likely hanging out with my friends. My friends and I have a lot of fun going shopping, watching Christmas movies and singing Christmas songs, making cookies, drinking hot chocolate and lots more! I have a lot of entertainment provided for me during my break! A few of the main things I plan to do this Winter Break are hang out with family and friends, play volleyball and watching Christmas movies.

According to TeacherHUB.com, two million children are attending year-round schools. Would the United States fully adopting a year-round schedule benefit the school systems? Switching to a year-round school schedule is highly debated in the United States. Some states and counties have adopted the year-round school schedule in hopes to “avoid the dreaded ‘brain drain’ that students experience during summer vacation”, increasing test scores, and all-around student wellness (Chen 2).

Homeroom Reflection Junior year I have grown as a student this semester by watching the mala movie. This has helped me grow as a student because it showed me how just one voice can change so much in a community. From this experience I learned how Mala was an ordinary girl but who ones spoke up for what she believed was right for her community and the people all around her. After she started to change her community on a positive way for example, have more schools so students can have an education and making sure girls were able to attend school more often. Therefore, when she spoke up for what she thought was right and changed people 's life there was some who didn 't appreciate what she was doing so decided to shot her and ended up shooting her on her forehead.
Normally all my fathers family members can attend and I get to catch up with my Canadian cousins and brother who lives in Boston. Additionally we enjoy the classic feast of turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, green beans, cranberry sauce, and more.

Between the food, friends, family, and extra long weekend off school,
Growing up in a big family, traditions were what kept our family together. As a child, every first weekend in December was spent at my grandma’s house.

It was at time that we all got to spend catching up with each other and playing.

The majority of my friends love Thanksgiving, and I love it, too! I just love it not so much for the food or because you’re with family; all of those things are nice too. Me and my family love Thanksgiving because of Black Friday Shopping. Oh sure we cook food and say a prayer together and all of that good stuff, but while we do all of those nice things we look at all the sales papers. We write several lists down of the items everyone wants buy for the sales.

Over the Border Every year my family decides what to do for the holidays and where to go. Most of the time I have no say in it because my uncles insist on visiting or they invite us over. It doesn’t help that all of my family lives in Texas, California, and Mexico. This year has been the first time that we have spent Christmas and New Years here at home with just my family in a long time. Last year we took a long trip to Chihuahua, Mexico which is the biggest part/state of Mexico where my mother is from.
