The qualities of a true leader are that he or she can show respect towards others. Those leaders that think of others and pays heed to other peoples ideas. When you think of people and what they feel, then you should be a leader. If you do something that benefits everyone you are a leader.
to think about it, everyone is a leader. You are your life's leader. The way you choose to live it, is up to you.
I think that Avi has some of these qualities and so does Lucas. I say that everyone is a leader for themselves.

Parent Teacher Conference Peices
One piece of writing that I didn't find challenging was the letter I wrote to the workers of Andrew Carnegie's company. In that piece of writing I portrayed myself as Andrew Carnegie, and when he was going to sell his company. My writing went in a flow and was very easy to understand. These were some reasons why I thought I didn't have any trouble. Here are a few sentences.
I am getting old and I do want to retire, and the fellow is offering me a fortune. Now then, I don’t know what to do, and I am dangling in a situation that is irresistible! How I would love to live the rest of my life in pure peace with no work. But then again it is hard to believe that I will hand over more than 40 years of my life.
The piece that I had some trouble with was the Expository piece. I feel that I didn't put much effort into it. The piece was not in a flow and wasn't too descriptive. Some sentences were hard to understand. Here are some sentences.
In our museum display, you will see how Andrew Carnegie and James Watt were very important with the history of the Industrial Revolution. You will also learn what the dates were for few of the most important aspects of the Industrial Revolution.

The Importance of WOW
WOW is very important in the school’s curriculum since what we learn at WOW, we don’t learn at school. Some reasons why WOW is important is because we live in a country with an exceptional diverse environment. As we live in this environment, it is our duty to learn about it. WOW takes us to many different places that we don’t visit very often. Secondly, we get a brake from school and our family. We learn how to be with others and experience fun without having it all your way. We learn about the culture of

Goals Feedback
I think that I now have improved my handwriting that was my goal for first quarter. I can measure that because in the beginning of the year I didn't have that good of hand writing that I have now. I don't think that this is the end. I think that I can still improve a little bit more. I am still working on my goal and hopefully by the end of the year, I will have much better and neater handwriting.
I think that three goals that I can work on are that I can get a better grade on my tests, I can concentrate and learn more better, and lastly, I can still work on better handwriting.

Expository Piece
Expository Piece
Shuk.Fatania
Sept/ 24/ 07
Period 2/8
Welcome to our museum display, where you will learn where, how, and why iron, steel, coal, and steam were important factors in the industrial revolution. Steel was obviously an important ingredient because without steel, many of the parts of the machines could not be made. Many objects were manufactured by machines; therefore scarcity of steel would be a tragedy.
Coal was a very important substance that was used to heat other objects. Steel wasn’t the only substance needed to make useful objects; coal was the actual source of energy which allowed the machines to work. Iron had an important role to play since iron and steel were two elements that went together. Anyone who had an iron business at that time would have earned loads of money.
In our museum display, you will see how Andrew Carnegie and James Watt were very important with the history of the Industrial Revolution. You will also learn what the dates were for few of the most important aspects of the Industrial Revolution.

Carnegie thinks of selling company
New York: 1901
The well known ”Steel” man Andrew Carnegie, has been in the steel business for more than 40 years and has recently made plans of selling it his company. As talked about last time, John Pierpont Morgan has a plan of taking all the steel companies and making it into one. Andrew Carnegie is currently revising Morgan’s offer for the company. Selling the company would mean that there will be one less steel company.
As soon as Carnegie makes his final decision, all the shares of Carnegie’s company will be converted into the US Steel. For those of us who have bought shares in Carnegie’s company are most likely to gain a profit since Morgan has already has many factories which he has bought from other steel companies.
If Carnegie’s steel company is sold, then US Steel shall be the leading steel company in the United States. We have uncovered that if Carnegie sells his company he will get Millions (2007’s $120 billion). We have also found out that if Carnegie sells his company, then he will become the 2nd richest man on the planet. Carnegie speaks of profit and how there will be no good in keeping the company since all the other steel companies are sold to US Steel.
There is quite a wait for Carnegie’s answer towards Morgan’s offer. Everyone is anxious to know the future of steel. If Carnegie sells his company, then Morgan will have all the minor and major steel companies under his power.
