  1. How did Dr.Mona’s actions make a difference in the community of Flint?
  2. Can you think of a time in your own life when you have made other people aware of a problem that they were not aware of?
  3. What can you do as an individual to make the world a better and safer place?

 

  1. Dr. Mona encouraged parents of children to drink the water because she believed the water was better and not poisoned anymore.
  2. Yes, one of my friends was dating a guy that I knew began cheating on her. I got details and let her know about it, and she got out of a toxic relationship.
  3. Right now, considering the pandemic, I can wear my mask, wash my hands, and quarantine when I feel sick.

Peer Group Resume

Hey my name is Olivia Irby and I feel that I am really good at finding evidence to put in an essay. But one thing I wish to improve on is finding better synonyms throughout my papers so that it spices my paper up if you know what I mean.

I want a peer group that is not afraid to show me where I should improve or share their opinions.
