X A
Scary Natural Disasters
Write about what Natural disaster you think is the scariest and why. You need to write 5 sentences.
You can pick from this list:
Hurricanes
Tornado's
Blizzards
Avalanches
Example
I think that a tornado is the scariest natural disaster because there is no way to know when they will strike. Tornados can hit your home at anytime and they have the power to destroy your home in seconds. The warnings for tornados can be sounded as little as a few minuets before the tornado hits. This means that you have very little time to get to safety. This means that a tornado can kill or hurt you very easily.
XI A/B
Favorite Natural Place
Write 6 sentences about your favorite Natural Place in the world and why you like it and why you think it should be saved.
Natural Places are Forests, Oceans, Rivers, Lakes, Seas, Rain Forests, Desserts, Canyons, Waterfalls, National Parks/ Reserves, Glaciers, and Beaches and Coves and Volcanoes.
Example
My favorite Natural Place in the world is the Rain Forest on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. I love this place because I have many happy memories of it from when I was a child. It is full of beautiful flowers, trees and birds and all of them can only be found in Hawaii. It also has beautiful waterfalls that are a wonder to be seen. The plants in this rainforest are some of the most beautiful in the world and the world would be less wonderful without them. The rainforests of Hawaii are some of the most beautiful in the world and they can not be replaced.
XII A/B beginners X A/B advanced
World Cities
Write 6 sentences about your favorite world city and why you like it
Example
My favorite city is London. I like this city because it is full of interesting history. In London you can see the famous Tower of London. The Tower of London is an old castle that was used as a prison for those people who committed crimes against the British government. There is also a large museum there that I would like to see, because it holds artifacts from all over the world. I would also like to see a performance by the Royal Ballet Company.
XI A/B Advanced
Favorite Ancient Empire
In at least 6 sentences describe your favorite Ancient Empire and why you like it.
Example
My favorite ancient empire is the Roman Empire. I like this empire because it was home to the inventors of so many things. These things include modern pluming, and Roman architecture. I also like to learn about their mythology. Their religion had 12 main gods and goddess and many minor gods and goddess. I like to see how some of these ideas and symbols have become part of the modern world.
XII A/B advanced
Crime and Punishment
Write a minimum of 6 sentences on whether you think the death penalty is right or wrong. Be prepared to defend you choice in class
Examples
Against
I think the death penalty is wrong because killing people is immoral. Only god has the right to judge people in this way. Also there have been many cases when people were put to death and it was later found out that they were innocent. This is a barbaric form of punishment that is outlawed in most of the modern world. Also in modern times most prisons are inescapable so prisoners can be kept securely behind bars making killing them unnecessary. In addition if people could study these killers it would benefit modern society.
For
In modern times the technology exists so that those who are found guilty of capital crimes such as murder or conspiracy to commit murder are guild beyond a reasonable doubt. By using DNA those found guilty of murder can be positively identified. Also mass murders and serial killers can not be reformed and the risk of keeping them alive it to high. Many murders are very intelligent and have the ability to get past prison security or obtain help from the outside to get out. In addition people like Charles Mason and others have the power to get other people to do their bidding and if kept alive could get others to kill people for them while they are behind bars. These people who are convicted using DNA, fingerprint and other physical evidence are guild beyond a reasonable doubt and should be humanly put down for the safety of society.

Scary Natural Disasters
Write about what Natural disaster you think is the scariest and why. You need to write 5 sentences.
You can pick from this list:
Hurricanes
Tornado's
Blizzards
Avalanches
Example
I think that a tornado is the scariest natural disaster because there is no way to know when they will strike. Tornados can hit your home at anytime and they have the power to destroy your home in seconds. The warnings for tornados can be sounded as little as a few minuets before the tornado hits. This means that you have very little time to get to safety. This means that a tornado can kill or hurt you very easily.
XI A/B
Favorite Natural Place
Write 6 sentences about your favorite Natural Place in the world and why you like it and why you think it should be saved.
Natural Places are Forests, Oceans, Rivers, Lakes, Seas, Rain Forests, Desserts, Canyons, Waterfalls, National Parks/ Reserves, Glaciers, and Beaches and Coves and Volcanoes.
Example
My favorite Natural Place in the world is the Rain Forest on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. I love this place because I have many happy memories of it from when I was a child. It is full of beautiful flowers, trees and birds and all of them can only be found in Hawaii. It also has beautiful waterfalls that are a wonder to be seen. The plants in this rainforest are some of the most beautiful in the world and the world would be less wonderful without them. The rainforests of Hawaii are some of the most beautiful in the world and they can not be replaced.
XII A/B beginners X A/B advanced
World Cities
Write 6 sentences about your favorite world city and why you like it
Example
My favorite city is London. I like this city because it is full of interesting history. In London you can see the famous Tower of London. The Tower of London is an old castle that was used as a prison for those people who committed crimes against the British government. There is also a large museum there that I would like to see, because it holds artifacts from all over the world. I would also like to see a performance by the Royal Ballet Company.
XI A/B Advanced
Favorite Ancient Empire
In at least 6 sentences describe your favorite Ancient Empire and why you like it.
Example
My favorite ancient empire is the Roman Empire. I like this empire because it was home to the inventors of so many things. These things include modern pluming, and Roman architecture. I also like to learn about their mythology. Their religion had 12 main gods and goddess and many minor gods and goddess. I like to see how some of these ideas and symbols have become part of the modern world.
XII A/B advanced
Crime and Punishment
Write a minimum of 6 sentences on whether you think the death penalty is right or wrong. Be prepared to defend you choice in class
Examples
Against
I think the death penalty is wrong because killing people is immoral. Only god has the right to judge people in this way. Also there have been many cases when people were put to death and it was later found out that they were innocent. This is a barbaric form of punishment that is outlawed in most of the modern world. Also in modern times most prisons are inescapable so prisoners can be kept securely behind bars making killing them unnecessary. In addition if people could study these killers it would benefit modern society.
For
In modern times the technology exists so that those who are found guilty of capital crimes such as murder or conspiracy to commit murder are guild beyond a reasonable doubt. By using DNA those found guilty of murder can be positively identified. Also mass murders and serial killers can not be reformed and the risk of keeping them alive it to high. Many murders are very intelligent and have the ability to get past prison security or obtain help from the outside to get out. In addition people like Charles Mason and others have the power to get other people to do their bidding and if kept alive could get others to kill people for them while they are behind bars. These people who are convicted using DNA, fingerprint and other physical evidence are guild beyond a reasonable doubt and should be humanly put down for the safety of society.
