Madeleine Albright was indeed a great hero! She was the Secretary of State under Bill Clintons administration from 1997 to 2000, the U.N ambassador and a member of the national Security Council. Believe it or not, she can speak 4 different languages, Russian Polish, Czech, and French. This enables her to communicate with other world leaders. She found out she was Jewish while on a ship about five years ago. Imagine how that would feel to find out so late!
Even though she is a lady of politics, in her free time she enjoys needlepoint and sewing. The most amazing fact about her is that she had such a high place in office.
Dane, Your paragraph on M. Albright was excellent. You included some very interesting facts about this amazing woman. Keep up the good work.By the way, you've aroused my curiosity in Ms. Albright...I may have to do some reading on her on my own! Thanks!

Dane,
Madeleine Albright is one of my heroes, too! I wish I could speak 4 languages. I really like the way you brought in some many, different aspects of her life. You are doing a terrific job on our NewsQuest team. I look forward to reading your writing today.
See you next week!
Mrs. Davis
