The Rose That Grew From Concrete
Did you hear about the rose that grew
from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it
learned to walk without having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping its dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared.

Explanation:his poem is a synopsis of Tupac Shakur’s life in a few powerful and meaningful lines. Tupac grew up in a poor family in a neighborhood where not many people ended up being successful as he was. No one had much hope or belief in him and no one thought that he could be successful due to the fact that he came from a poor background and an environment that would hold people back from reaching their dreams.
Tupac begins by asking, “Did u hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete”, by asking this it shows that “roses do not grow from concrete” very often and it is something special when it does. Tupac is comparing himself to the rose and the concrete to his environment that held him back. He is trying to say that it is very hard to live and survive in such a hard environment and still make something of yourself. On the second line he writes, “Proving nature’s laws wrong” (Shakur 3). When Shakur says, “Nature’s laws” he means the idea or thought that most people in a ghetto or bad area do not succeed to the best of one’s ability which naturally comes to mind when thinking of these types of areas. Tupac is saying that he proved this concept wrong and became successful. In the same line he writes, “it learned 2 walk without having feet” (Shakur 3). Tupac is saying that he proved “nature’s law” wrong by becoming successful and he did it on his own with no help or “without having feet”. Tupac’s success was made from his own hard work and dedication, because he lived in such a bad area he did not have much support or feet below him to help him get through difficult situations and make it to the top. He also writes, “Funny it seems but by keeping its dreams it learned 2 breathe fresh air” (Shakur 3) He means that because he kept his dreams and was dedicated to his goal of being a rapper he was able to “breath fresh air”. Tupac is saying that because he kept his dreams he was able to get out of the ghetto and experience a better and more successful life. In the last line he writes, “Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else even cared!” (Shakur 3) Tupac is saying that no one really cared about his dreams and goals and no one supported him but he supported himself and believed in himself which is why he writes the last line.
This whole poem is filled with figurative language. The rose is a metaphor for Tupac and the concrete is a metaphor for the ghetto or neighborhood he grew up in. Tupac also includes personification in his poem. When he writes, “Proving nature’s laws wrong it learned 2 walk without having feet Funny it seems but by keeping its dreams it learned 2 breathe fresh air” This is personification because a rose cannot walk, keep dreams or breathe. This poem holds a very large significance in the memoir. The poem’s title is the same as the memoir. The poem is a very short biography of Tupac’s life. This poem is a summary of Tupac Skakur’s life and his road to success.

Read the excerpt from the Newslea article "Opinion: From Embarrassed About Bicultural Identity, to Celebrating It."
"The red dot is a bindhi — it signifies she's married," I'd say in a quiet voice. My answer would lead to more questions about my family's Indian traditions. Such questions were unwelcome back then. As a teen in a small Texas town, I didn't want my otherness distracting from my efforts to fit into my American life.
How do the ideas in this excerpt differ from the opinion of the author of the Newsela article "Opinion: It’s Important for Kids to See Diverse TV, Movie Characters"?
A.) The author of "Opinion: It’s Important for Kids to See Diverse TV, Movie Characters" believes the media is responsible for how families preserve their bicultural identities.
B.) The author of "Opinion: It’s Important for Kids to See Diverse TV, Movie Characters" wants children to embrace every aspect of their heritage.
C.) The author of "Opinion: It’s Important for Kids to See Diverse TV, Movie Characters" believes bicultural young people no longer struggle to fit in.

The use of plastic has contributed to advancements in countless industries and fields of study over the past century. From science and medicine to household chores, plastic has been an integral part of new discoveries and processes. Although environmental concerns have created a reduction in the amount of plastic purchased and used by consumers, there is still a large amount of plastic trash polluting the Earth’s land and water. There are currently five giant trash gyres, or whirlpools collecting floating trash, in our oceans. The North Pacific gyre covers nearly 5 million square miles of ocean with an estimated 11 million tons of plastic waste.
Which information from the excerpt above would you include in an infographic? Explain why. Your answer should be 2 to 3 sentences

Answer:
Explanation:
The information provided in the excerpt that I could include in an infographic would be the parts about how enviormental concerns have created a reduction in the amount of plastic purchased, how cutting back on plastic still leaves a large amount in the ocean, and how there is 5 million square miles with 11 million tons of plastic waste in the North Pacific gyre. These pieces of information should be included in an infographic because it tells people that more can and should be done to help our enviorment. Additonally, this also shows how human actions have scarily effected the enviorment in ways that are going to take a lot of work and improvements to be undone.

Best teacher I've ever had was my freshmen year English teacher. I don't know what it was, but me and her just connected. Not in a weird way, but almost in a "I can talk to this person about anything" way. She always helped me with pretty much anything even if it had nothing to do with English. She was extremely kind and always available. If I didn't wanna go to lunch because I wasn't up for it, we'd sit in her English class and eat something she had in her classroom. I think that's what made her the best teacher. She was just kind. We still talk to this day and we often discuss movies like the Dead Poets Society and other things. She was a really fun teacher and she was honestly the highlight of my freshmen year.

Explanation:
Mary is an eighth grader and, until recently, pretty popular at school. Lately, she started finding notes in her locker and in her backpack that were really upsetting. The notes were unsigned and mean. They said things like: “ We don’t like how you’re treading on our territory.” “” And even, “ You better watch out because we’re watching you…”
Mary had no idea who might be sending the notes but she had an idea why. In the last few months she had started accepting invitations to high school parties. She also has been talking with a couple of sophomore guys. She had a feeling that the notes were from some of the high school girls. She knew how gossip got around and how mean other people said the sophomore girls were.
What was she supposed to do? Almost every day this week she received a note. She felt angry, scared, and hurt. She showed the notes to two of her friends. One of them said that whoever is sending them was probably just jealous and she should just ignore them. The other friend said she should show them to a teacher.
Mary felt like there was no good choice. If she tried to ignore the notes she was afraid they would just continue, and she was not only scared, she was mad. She wanted them to stop. But if she turned in the notes, she was sure the whole school would find out and she would probably have to name names as to who she thought was sending them. If the gossip was bad now, wouldn’t’ it be worse then?
