MY PARAGRAPH

During this cool experience of parachutes and how they work, I learned how finding the averages for things can help you and how parachutes helped the world become what it is today.
There were many important things to me and my learning. One of these memories are the fun experiences with parachutes and the students that worked with me.
After all, these are the things that stuck with me throughout this experience.
