Hello Vella Karman here, a homeschooled 11 year old. I am in 6th grade. I like to dance ballet, especially point, and I also write my own stories. I can't see what I am doing in ballet but I can feel the beauty of it, and I praise God with it. Maybe later I will post some of my stories, I want people to see my work but I am afraid they will think it's terrible and say I am awful at writing. But I still want your comments even if that's what you have to say, I'll try not to take it personally, I am looking for constrictive criticism so say what you really think.

President Obama changes Mount Mckinley’s name to Denali.

Denali is the tallest mountain in North America. It is 20,320 feet tall. It was named after President Mckinley, until it was renamed Denali. President Obama is officially renaming it Denali on Monday during a Presidential trip to Alaska. Denali is the traditional Alaskan native name. It means high one in Athabascan. Although the Ohio delegation is against the whole thing, Obama is still renaming it. Since Mckinley was from Ohio it has always been a concern of Ohio to protect Mount Mckinley’s name.

current events: The yuan’s worth changing

China changed how much the yuan is worth, it dropped 1.9% on Tuesday, 1.6% on Wednesday, and 1% on Thursday. The yuan is now 2% less than the dollar. The Money Times says. “The fear is that China’s economy is slowing more than expected and that U.S companies that do business there would be hurt by a stronger dollar related to the yuan depreciation, which makes U.S. products sold in China more expensive.”
