How to Keep Your Grades Up

by Mila Agha

It’s a difficult task for children to keep their grades up. That is why I am here to help. Also, parents, don’t be too harsh on your kids about their grades.

Make sure you keep organized. When you receive your first “planner” in third grade, make sure you check it every night, and complete your homework.
When you have an upcoming test, no matter what it is, make sure you study. Make sure to take all the advice from your teacher. The tests may be a little challenging, if so, make sure to ask questions. Don’t forget to ask questions during the lesson as well.
If you are really struggling, reach out to one of the teachers to see if they can tutor.
You most definitely have to have a passion for the subject or to strive to get decent grades.

Quick advice, read this column!

Good Job, you listened! O.K., here is some advice on video games.

I will discuss League, Fortnite, and also Minecraft, plus Among Us. By the way, you will find a hidden piece of advice, you will not regret it.

Rocket league

Prioritize boost, and then flip to gain speed.

Try to air dribble by walling up the ball then hit it off turn on ball cam and hit the ball off the wall. Jump off the wall and boost at the ball and aim towards the goal. This is also used for passing.

Minecraft

First of all this is advice about survival not speedrunning.

First, find a tree and start punching it to make a crafting bench and make a sword and pickaxe. Then, upgrade them to stone tools and start

making a bed. Just find a couple of sheep and craft shears by getting iron, then harvest the wool. After that, make a house and start farming wheat ,carrots, anything you can find, and try to get a fishing rod so you can fish. Then you are set for life on food. Start mining, and eventually you will find iron to make some armor and a sword plus a pickaxe. Start mining even deeper, then eventually you will find diamonds. Also, if you find iron on the way down, use it to gather any lava you find, then craft another bucket and get water. Next, make some obsidian to make a portal to the nether. Then find netherite. Make a netherite sword and armor. Kill a bunch of blazes and keep the blaze powder. Get to the overworld again then find the stronghold.

Use the blaze powder to make ender eyes by crafting with ender pearls then kill the ender dragon. Take some beds and place it near the dragon then sleep on the bed, then get off and it will explode. Good luck.

"Steakon" Recipe

by Luca Shibley

Ingredients: Steak, Bacon, Seasoning

Directions:

Today you will learn how to cook the best food in the whole world. Steacon is an original recipe made by me. To make this delicious dish, you will need steak and bacon. First, cut the steak into squares. Next, you will need to grab the bacon and carefully wrap the bacon around the steak. Before you cook the steacon, put seasoning on it. Then, you will need to start the grill. When the grill is hot enough, put the steacon on the grill. Asparagus is a nice side dish with the steacon. Turn the steacon around so that it is cooked on all sides. When it is cooked all the way through, take it off the grill. Finally, you will plate up everything and serve it.

INGREDIENTS:

2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons canola oil divided
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 ½ pounds skirt steak cut into ½ inch pieces
12 mini flour tortillas
¾ cup diced red onion
½ chopped cilantro fresh leaves
1 lime, cut into wedges
