History has impacted my life because when I was younger I used to live in the north side of Chicago and I remember one of the traditions my family used to do is that every Sunday we would walk to a restaurant or fast food place then afterwards go to the store and my mom would buy us a toy. But then that changed when my dad got a better job here in Woodridge, so we needed to move here and we didn't keep any of our traditions anymore. But its still as great as it was in Chicago, probably even better because its quieter and less crowded. I've been living in Woodridge/Downers Grove for almost 8 years.
History: acquiring knowledge about significant events and individual developments over time; investigations about the past and its legacy.

I love how you put the definition, it would help people who don't really know what your talking about. Also I like how you incorporated a tradition in it too. Maybe add a little more of what you did when you lived in Chicago or tell us the restaurants you went to. Otherwise good job on what you have so far and keep up the good work.

I like how you added a tradition that your family did but I think you should add how it has impacted you.
