    Do we necessarily need to research for the grand conversation? I mean, how do we research? Don't we just write our basic opinion on the statement???

    Camille, lots of people ask that so she's just sick of it even though she did it yesterday! complex sentence. I remember my stuff! Hey guys did you know there's a word called academician? It means someone who's in a school where they teach art math and RLA. Wow... now I have a fancy way of saying a student!

    suave means fun and loving in manner. My sister has to learn all these words and some of them I didn't know existed! Like volant which means someone flying or can fly! She's learning some complicated words...

    By the way the sentence I said was complex wasn't! It was a compound complex with wrong punctuation

    It's preferable if you do Caroline. You don't have to, but you can.

    Is envisioning getting inside the charecter's mind or describing the setting?

    Little bit of both. You are in the character's perspective (you dont have to but it's better if u do) and you describe what your thinking the smells sounds sights etc.

    I think girls wear their swimsuit underneath their PE uniform. I think guys wear their PE uniform and change into swimsuit bottoms, but they keep their short on. I pretty sure about what girls wear, but since I'm not a boy, I don't if that is true. However, I do know we must wear our shirts at all times.

    yes... you MUST research this question - what are the arguments for and against gun control across the world?

    this is a very hot debate with adults

    what is the 'right to bear arms'?

    look on the forms that went home. It gives the instructions their

    you can answer that question yourself Caroline
