School Shooting in Texas

    On Thursday, a shooting at a Texas school killed 18 children and 1 teacher. President Joe Biden said, "I hoped when I became president I would not have to do this, again." Vice President, Kamala Harris said, "Enough is enough. As a nation, we have to have the courage to take action and ensure something like this never happens again."

IMPORTANT - Plagiarism

You can read news articles and reviews to get ideas. But you must NOT copy their articles! This is a crime called plagiarism - and your teacher can easily google to check if you are copying!

HOWEVER - you CAN copy quotes (the things people say!). That's because when we quote, we are telling the reader someone else said this - not us! So it is not stealing!
