Paragraph 1: Explain one way you've grown or changed in sixth grade. Use a blog entry as evidence of your change. Link the blog entry.

Paragraph 2: Explain another way you've grown or changed. If you explained a personal change in paragraph one, perhaps focus on an academic change for your second, or vice versa. Use a blog entry as support for your change and link it to your paragraph.

- You have all changed A LOT this year! If you are stuck on how you've grown, ask your friends, parents, or brainstorm ways you want to change and write your speech about your wants.

- Speech - approximately 1-2 minutes. Will be in small advisory groups (3-4 students) in May.
