If I was a director of an Immigration office, my 5 rules to becoming an American would be…
1. Must have no criminal records 2.Must have a reason as to why you want to live here. 3. Must have a plan about your future and what you tend to do 4.Must have an education/ continue their eductation 5. Must have their own part on what happens in the countryThese are some questions I decided to answer.
1. What is smart? Smart is something people get from learning.
2. What is intelligent? Intelligent are what people get from making mistakes.
3. What is wisdom? Wisdom is what or is the experience people gain as they grow.
4. Which one is most important? I think wisdom is more important than the other two because wisdom is something that you could take, share , and give to other people.
5. How do we gain wisdom? From what you learn from your experiences growing up.
6. What is wisdom you have gained from a personal experience? One piece of wisdom I gained was in golf to never stand next to a person who is about to hit a ball even if it is mini golf because they could swing it really high and hit you on your chin or near your face.
7. What is wisdom you have gained from another person’s experiences? Think before you speak and don’t give up because one day its going to be wothwhile.
8. Is it possible to gain wisdom from someone we have never met? Yes, you could gain wisdom by watching a movie or listening to music and other stuff like that.
This is the background info on Andrew Jackson.
I believe that Andrew Jackson would be a very strong leader inside and out. This man is the man who got shot on his chest and didn’t show any sign of pain. He has lost most of his family and married an already married women. All of these events had made him a stronger person. The Revolutionary War took away most of his childhood and his family with it. I believe that Andrew Jackson is someone who would like to please everybody and in doing so things turn out different then plan.
Should people be judge by their actions or intentions?I believe that people should be judge by both. Your actions are what people see you as and your intentions is something that not many people get to see or hear but it tells why. I read this book and believe that in this case the person should be judge by their actions because they have the right to control themselves and if one chooses not to then it is their own fault. I also believe that we should judge a person more on their intentions than on their actions because I believe it is more important on why did the person do that. Everyone has a reason and they should be heard. If I were a principle of a school and someone is bullying someone because that person just wants attention I believe that that person shouldn’t get away unpunished but I would find a group or club for that kid to join where he would be heard and listen to.
Take action
All that matters is what is deep inside.
The star spangled banner is more than just lyrics to a song. It is the lyrics to our county’s fight to freedom.I would say that the lyrics to the Star Spangled Banner is historically acurate. It does matter if the song is historically accurate because for people who wasn’t there they could look back at the song and see or hear the true meaning behind it.
This is the lyrics to the first verse of The Star Spangled Banner. Underneath is my translation of it.
Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light, Look at what is near the sunrise What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming? We stood happily watching the sky change. Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thru the perilous fight, How the Flag is still hanging through the war O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? over the raised land, bravely flowing And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air, The Lights from the battle Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Showed us that our flag is still here O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave Is the flag still flying in the air O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave? Over America
Links to Pictures
The war of 1812,also known as the forgotten war.The Americans burnt the British capital and for revenge the British are headed out to burn down the U.S. capitol. The White House. Dolly Madison stayed at the white house for a while longer then James Madison did. When she got news that the British were on their way she went to save the GeorgeWashington portrait. She ordered to have them break the frame and just take the picture. She didn’t leave until the portrait was taken down. She wanted to keep the picture of George Washington because she felt it was a great part of the past that should live on.
The next day Mother Nature left a gift for the Americans. While the British were destroying and burning more buildings a hurricane hit Washington D.C and the wind was so powerful that the soldiers had to grab on to something to not be blown away. Shortly after the hurricane a tornado hit . Most of the soldiers fled back to Maryland.
Whendo we create symbols?Why do we create symbols? I believe that we create symbols when there is something in need of remembrance and when people need something or someone to look up to. Symbols are created to bring back apart of history or create something new. We need symbols to realize how important something actually is. Most people prefer to have something to see or to hold to bring back the memory of something important to them. Having nothing then just a piece of memory that could be forgotten.
The American Flag would be considered a symbol because when people really look at it it makes people realize that there has to be something important about it to make it well known. The flag is a symbol of what this country has gone and will go through.
