weekly post

For this week i'm really focusing on completeing my portfolio. It seems like a lot of work when you first read through the required material but it's actually a lot of work that has already been completed. I'm glad that I have been following along and doing the work along the way so I dont have a lot of work to catch up on. Also this week I submitted the rough draft of my persuassive paper. I think I did a nice job overall but I still feel like I can use some extra help from Dr.minslow to make my conclusion a lot stronger than it is now. Doing this project has taught me so much about abused children and has changed my outlook on it greatly. Coming to the end of finishing the project really makes me want to continue helping and try to find as many solutions as I can to help reduce the number of children being abused. Also I want to continue trying to find ways to make the foster care system a better system. I will definitely be writing a letter to a relevant government official to explain how I feel like a lot of foster care systems can be changed for the better and how i think the number of abused children in not only charlotte but all around North Carolina can be reduced.
