Last week a company called attitude came in and talked about puberty. Yes puberty but they also talked to us about relationships and how our emotions can change. Did you know that the first thing that grows I our bodies are our feet and hands. When we are growing up our friendships can change and our relationship with our family can too. Our hormones can get in the way too as we are growing which leads to us being really emotional or angry. We did a few activities like we had to name all the changes that both boys and girls go through and we also watched a video about how much the internet can change a person. Another big thing that can happen to us is that we may compare ourselves to other or think we are not enough, which is when we should learn to love ourselves. Have you ever heard of this company before?

We then found a bunch of information and wrote it in a doc while doing this we had to remember to link where we got the information off so we can credit them at the end. Once we have finished our plan we would then start putting our information we found into structured paragraphs. Here is my plan: South Korea Paragraph 1/Introduction *Population 51,240,568 as of Tuesday, November 5th, 2019. It is estimated that the population of South Korea makes up 0.66% of the world.
