                         Current Events  

     Have you ever read about current events? Well, current events are news that are happening right now. In other words the news is present.Have you have read current events did the news relate to you, someone you know, or even a character in a book that you're reading? Well keep reading to find out how some of these events could relate to the character in my independent reading book. 

     The book that I read is called "The Clique- Kristen". The character in the book that I am mainly focusing on is Kristen. One event the is happening is the voting. I think the Kristen would be interested in this article because she actually takes time to learn about what is going on around the world. In addition she is tutoring a girl named Ripple.I think that Kristen's opinion on the news is that she would get a little interested in it. For example, you probably are very anxious to find out who the winner of the voting is. This is one current event that Kristen would enjoy learning about.   
       Another current event found on is all about fashion and clothes. This is because she also enjoys being a fashionista. At the same time. though, she loves to learn about the world itself and what is happening all over the globe. Her opinion would be that  she loves learning about fashion as well as Earth's history. This is another current event that I personally think that she would love.
       A third current event that Kristen would be interested in is math. This is because she spends most of her time tutoring math to Ripple.So she would be really interested to find more facts about math. Her opinion might be that the article was very informative. This is another current event that Kristen would like to read about.
        A fourth current event that she would enjoy is about beauty pageants. I think this because in her spare time she sometimes helps the contestants get ready by putting makeup on their face,doing their hair, lining them up, and keeping them calm if they are to nervous. She would like this event because it could give her more ways to make the girls even more beautiful. Her opinion might be that it is informative and very helpful to her part-time volunteer job. This is the fourth current event that i believe Kristen would love.
      Lastly, the fifth current event that Kristen would enjoy is pets. This is because she has a little puppy that she volunteered to take care of. I think that this will probably help her get a better understanding of what puppy's necessities are. Another idea is that she may not know important things like when they have to go to the vet for a checkup. Also, you have to walk them every day. So, I think that Kristen would like the article. Her opinion would probably be that the news is very helpful for people who don't really have an experience with dogs/puppy's. This is the fifth event that Kristen would really enjoy.
     Finally, you know how current events can relate to you. It could also relate to another person that you know or even a character in a movie or book. I challenge you to find a current event that either relates to you, another person that you know, or a character. Now you have learned all about current events.
