Part 1: What is " Pay It Forward? "
Pay It Forward is a random act of kindness for or to someone, expecting nothing back but to " pay it forward to another person(s), so that the next person will " pay it forward ". As that keeps on going there will be so much people " paying it forward " all started from one person.
Part 2:
My " Pay It Forward " act of kindness was shoveling the side walks on my block, and peoples yards. I chose this activity because my block had snow on it and it was hard for people to walk, such as the mailman. I have helped people like the mail man, my neighbors and other people that walk on the block all the time. I shoveled the sidewalk and some of the yards that did have a gate. I did my act of kindness on Sunday, November 25 around 2 pm.
ADD IN PICTURES BEFORE SUNDAY ENDS
Part 3:
My act of kindness went pretty well. Well at first I got my shovels and went to the front and started on my yard and worked down the block and into some of my neighbors yards. I knocked on the door and explained to them why I was doing it, and how all they have to do for me is " Pay It Forward ". Well at first when i was shoveling I felt pretty good, because I was making it easier for someone that walks down this block. At times I got a little cold, but deep down in my heart I felt the love and warmth. Some of my neighbors were surprised of what I was doing. But one house there was this grumpy guy where I was in the middle of explaining it and he said " WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS I'M NOT GOING TO PAY YOU ! " and closed the door. And I was shocked, so I just walked away to the other houses. Good thing only one guy did that to me.Yes I did tell the person to " Pay It Forward ". They said they would try their best to " Pay It Forward ".
Part 4:
The idea of why " Pay It Forward " is important is because it teaches young people that no matter how young you are you can make a difference in this world. You can make a difference in the world by doing the littlest things like what I did. I don't know if my act of kindness has made a difference hopefully it has. Hopefully people noticed what I did. But I think it has because my neighbors will try and do their best to " Pay It Forward ".

These are 3 questions that I chose from the 2nd column of the Integer Addition; Range (-99) to (+99) worksheet.
Basically, Whatever is the larger number is going to determine if your answer is going to be positive or negative.
Incase you still don`t know how to do it, here`s a website that might help and this video might help also

TEST CORRECTIONS
My first mistake was on the first section of the test, where the question asks 16/9 - 3/2.
I had converted the fractions into mixed numbers, where I came up with 3 5/18. But the supposed answer is 5/18.
My second mistake was the one that asks, "In computer terminology, a bit is 1/8 of a byte. How many bits equal 16 bytes?"
My mistake was that I went, 1/8 x 1/16 = 2/128. The right answer is 128 bits.
The third mistake I made was the one about Tamar and apple pie.
My mistake was that I answered 1/4. But the right answer was 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/8.
The other mistakes I made were on the bottom where I drew all three pictures wrong, and I got the phrases wrong as well.
The correct answer for the 1st one was, What is 5/6 groups of 1/2?
The correct answer for the 2nd one was, How many groups of 1/3 are in 1/2?
The correct answer for the 3rd one was, How many groups of 1/2 are in 5/8?
The correct answers for the pictures were...

7) Dividing Using Common Denominator
First you have to have to find the common denominator for example: 1/2 and 2/4 the common denominator is 4. Then after you do the reciprical strategy and if you have a mixed number you have to convert it to a improper fraction first.
8) Divide Using Multiplication
This is how you do it

My Test Corrections:
My first mistake was, 2 1/2 x 1 3/5, the correct answer to that is:
The rest of my mistakes at the first section are,
On 2 1/4 x 1 1/3 = 3 I thought it equaled 2 12/12, that part kinda confused me, at the time...
On the computer terminology question, I did the manipulative method, and ended up with 1/128,
when it was actually 128/1 or 128 bytes:
Q) In computer terminology, a bit is 1/8 of a byte. How many bytes = 16 bytes?
Another mistake I've made at the first section was the question:
Tamar had 1/2 of an apple pie in her refrigerator. She ate 1/4 of this piece of pie. What fraction of whole pie did she eat? The answer was 1/8
My last mistake at the top part is the question, 1 1/2 ÷ 2/3 which again confused me, and I thought it was 1... Here's the real solution and answer:
