IGNITE TALK

 Can you fully domesticate a mink and why are they seen as vicious to some people?  What I did to learn about the American mink was, I watched Joesph Carter on YouTube and learned about minks more and also saw how they hunt.A connection i noticed was that every mink has different personalities like humans, some people don't like being touched and that's the same when you handle a mink they don't like to be grabbed around the stomach.

A SENSE OF PLACE

I think Victor Hugo begins every section with detail on a section because it lets the readr know what he or she is going to read next and what may happen. I agree because people around the world are who they are because they lived either good or bad lives and they learned from it and it shaped their future. A place that is important to me is the weight room and the football field. These places did shape who I am because it showed me what hard work is and not giving up means. With out that in my life I would probably be in bad places or doing drugs or even worse dead. The weight room and the football field took me out of trouble and now I am doing good because of it.
