Action Plan For Project Based Learning

Project Based Learning

For the rest of the term, my year group has been given a task to have a positive impact on our community. My group consists of four people including myself, Jordanlee, Jessania and Michaela. The issue we have chosen is about senior citizenship. Websites like https://www.ageconcern.org.nz/ACNZ_Public/Loneliness_and_Social_Isolation_Research.aspx, http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/health/76229784/One-in-10-elderly-Kiwis-could-be-socially-isolated-Age-Concern-says and https://www.agingcare.com/articles/loneliness-in-the-elderly-151549.htm state that some elderly are left alone with no families and are 'isolated'. We have an idea to fundraise money for them and are still figuring out what we should do with it.

Persuasive Essay- Donald Trump should be impeached

He says he’s going to ‘Make America great again’ but how can it be great if he's leading it. Donald Trump should be impeached,  as he is racist, sexist, and has little knowledge of presidency.

Donald Trump is indeed racist. To name a few examples, he has said things like “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending the best. They’re not sending you, they’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They bring crime. They’re rapists… And some, I assume, are good people,” “Sadly, because President Obama has done such a poor job as president, you won’t see another black president for generations!” and “Laziness is a trait in blacks.” These quotes are outrageous. He also didn’t allow any black or Hispanic people to work in his company, even though his company got sued for it. He claims that he is the “least racist person on earth.” But clearly is proven wrong. According to http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-london-attack-terror-parsons-green-muslim-ban-promotion-twitter-a7948911.html  Trump wants to stop all Muslims from entering the United States, and he uses the London terror attacks to promote his ‘Muslim Ban’. Unfortunately, he has said things far more unpleasant things.

Adding to the fact that he is racist, he is also sexist.  He’s called woman names like “Fat, pig, dog, slob, disgusting animal.” He thinks women should be a certain shape and size. Trump called a former Miss Universe “Miss Piggy” and “an eating machine.”The website http://www.telegraph.co.uk/women/politics/donald-trump-sexism-tracker-every-offensive-comment-in-one-place/ states that Trump “has a tendency to criticise them for their looks - and sexist remarks.” The way he talks about women is appalling. Is having this man as the president benefiting the country or is it giving America a bad look?

As well as the fact that he is racist, he is sexist, he has little knowledge of presidency. As written in the website https://newrepublic.com/minutes/135170/donald-trump-never-read-presidential-biography-rarely-reads-anything-not-himself, Donald Trump has never read a presidential biography and rarely reads. Reading presidential biographies could help him become a better president because it could give him some advice. But he chose not to.  Having a racist and sexist president is already bad enough, but having someone who also doesn’t know much about his job is just insane.

Although Trump’s opponent for the presidency was a liar, leaving Trump responsible for the country was a mistake.

In conclusion, Donald Trump should be impeached, because he is racist, sexist and has little knowledge of presidency. So if you want America to be better than it is, I suggest you don't let this man continue to be president.
