Basketball Rule #3
Never let anyone
lower your goals.
Others’ expectations
of you are determined
by their limitations
of life.
The sky is your limit, sons.
Always shoot
for the sun
and you will shine.

What does this rule mean to you? 100 words atleast

To me, this rule means to never let anyone get you down. Always believe the best in yourself no matter what others think.  This rule means that others options of myself dont matter, because the only way I can succeed is if I believe in myself. So this rule is important because it helps me remember self-confidence and not to give in to the doubt that others have placed on my shoulders.

read the excerpt from Esperanza Rising. Isabel's eyes got bigger and she looked worried.

"And later today, you must sweep the platform. You . . . you do know how to sweep?" "Of course," said Esperanza. She had seen people sweep many times. Many, many times, she assured herself.

Kalil examined the math book. It had been badly treated. The cover was torn and it appeared to be missing some pages. Still, Kalil knew that looks were less important than utility. He had learned that lesson long ago. "Thanks, Mr. Thompson!" he said with gratitude. Mr. Thompson looked up from his desk and said, "Sorry we don't have new books, Kalil, but there's still plenty of good math left in that book." Mr. Thompson smiled. Kalil felt appreciative.

Here is the story Problem With Bullies and the Brainstorming chart can you help me.

You’ve seen that the first lines of the poem illustrate that the beginning of the life cycle is precious. It doesn’t last long, so it’s rare. The last four lines of the poem all describe ways in which things pass from the ideal state of their beginning—where they are precious, rare, valuable, and short lived—to a more mature state that is less precious. Describe how each of these lines conveys the message of something precious becoming less precious.

BRAINLIEST IF RIGHT The U.S. Oil Embargo. In 1931, Japan invaded a country called Manchuria. Six years later, it invaded mainland China. Japan was an ally of Germany and Italy, both under the control of Adolf Hitler. Most countries were worried about this alliance because these nations were attacking their neighbors. The United States was among the nations who shared a concern about these aggressive countries called "the Axis."

Soon after Japan invaded China, World War II started. Japan attacked lands belonging to other countries; many of them were allied with the United States. Though the United States was not at war yet with Japan, President Roosevelt took action because of these attacks. The United States refused to sell Japan steel and oil. This is a situation called an "embargo." Steel is used in the manufacture of weapons of war, and oil is used as fuel for war machines. The United States claimed that it was refusing to sell these resources to Japan because it did not want to help Japan wage war.

Japan decided to attack the U.S. soon after the embargo began. Japan wanted to force the U.S. to surrender quickly. The attack on Pearl Harbor brought the U.S. into World War II, and the Axis countries were defeated four years later.

My mother sent me to his home every day in the summer to keep him company. "He has no one," she'd say, "since your nana passed."
He had bags of colorful rubber balloons stashed all around his garage. He took two of them and blew them up.

READ THE PASSAGE THEN ANSWER THE QUESTIONS

Last year, Ms. Perry, who taught fifth grade in Minneapolis, had read about the need for volunteers at a rural school in Africa. She applied and was accepted. Now it was summer break, and she was in Uganda. She was staying with Mr. Omara, a teacher at the school, and his family. When Mr. Omara showed her the school, she could not believe how many students were packed into the classroom. Students were seated on benches behind long tables and on the floor. She guessed there were ninety to a hundred students in one classroom! Ms. Perry worked with a small group of students as they practiced writing and speaking English. From her conversations with them, she learned about their lives. Ritah, Joseph, and Winnie got up at 5 a.m. and walked half a mile each way to collect water from the well before they walked to school. At night, they did their homework by candlelight. During her month in Africa, Ms. Perry learned that not only did schools need pens and paper, but books. Five students in a class shared one textbook. Mr. Omara explained that textbooks had to match the curriculum and be bought in Uganda. However, many storybooks in English were needed for reading practice. When Ms. Perry returned to Minneapolis, her class of 25 students looked small. She told them about the school she had visited. After she finished, Jackson said, “The students need supplies and books, so we should collect these and send them to the school.”That’s a great idea for a project,” Victoria said. “How can we get started? Ms. Perry said, “Remember, we will need money for shipping expenses. If everyone lists their ideas for the project, we will talk about your ideas on Friday.” On Friday, everyone was eager to share ideas. Eva had found a Web site that listed books needed in Uganda. Ms. Perry suggested they focus on fiction, or storybooks about made-up people and events. It would help students practice their skills in reading English. Logan pointed out that drop-off boxes for books could be placed in the front hall of the school and in the cafeteria. Everyone would see them there during lunchtime. Molly suggested publicity, saying they could make posters to get their information to the public. Ian’s idea was to collect books from families and neighbors and sell them in the shopping mall one weekend to make money. Molly drew a poster decorated with colorful books. It said, “Bring your books to Parkside School for our book drive. From November 1 through November 15, we are collecting books to send to a school in Uganda. We need picture books and especially the books listed below.” She printed the titles of the recommended books.
At the bottom, it said, “We are selling used books for adult readers to pay for our shipping charges. Stop by Vernon Mall on November 13 or 14. You may see a book you want to buy, or you can donate a book for us to sell.”
Ms. Perry’s students agreed that this was going to be a fun project!
