Draft Book Importance
I have been sending writing draft books home with your children so that they can complete their American Revolution work at home when we run out of time in class. Some students have been failing to return their draft books the next day. It is VERY IMPORTANT that they come back to school the next day with their homework with them! If they loose their draft book they become behind and in this particular unit we do not have time for them to catch up!

    Anne Lamott's 'Shitty First Drafts'

    In “Shitty First Drafts,” a selection from Bird by Bird (1994), Anne Lamott claims that in order to write effectively it is necessary to just get a first draft written down, no matter how crappy it may be. She does this by disproving the assumption that great authors just sit down and magically spit out an amazing piece of work and by sharing her own experience writing awful first drafts. Ms. Lamott, an accomplished author, shared her experiences in order to demonstrate how all readers need to write that abhorrent first draft. She is writing to other, less-experienced writers to reassure them, and to help them become better writers.…

    Pros And Cons Of Military Draft

    Military Units have had a tremendous impact on history since the beginning of time. They protect and defend sovereign states. These military units often lack the numbers to protect their country. This has created a large debate over a military draft. There are two sides, those for and those against. The debate over the draft is endless. Great points can be made from either side of the argument over the draft, but the there is a more logical solution to resolve this issue: the U.S draft should be reinstated.…

    Military Draft Pros And Cons

    To begin with, it is necessary to define what is a military draft. A military draft is known as a system which individuals who are 18 through 25 years of age are required to join and serve in the Army if they prove to be suitable after an appropriate assessment. Then after proper training, are sent to war or assigned to duties within the Army. Lately, a military draft reinstatement is gaining more attention since the military has a serious problem with recruitment and retaining, however some Americans argue that a military draft directly involves a set of particular disadvantages. Although the military draft no longer exists there are several advantages to mandatory enlistment in the military.…

    Persusaive Esasay- Military Draft

    People that argue that the draft needs to be reestablished have a strong base for their commanding arguments. Some believe that serving in the military is a civil duty, and to live in this country one must defend it. That patriotism is illustrated in this quote by George Washington, "It must be laid down as a primary position and the basis of our (democratic) system, that every citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal service to the defence of it" (Gill). Although not completely relevant to events of today it still emphasizes the fact that we as Americans need to serve our country if we expect the government to serve us. As we, the United States, are at war, people believe that a draft is needed because our "Army is stretched so thin" (Means). An influx of new troops could possibly invigorate the war effort and allow us to pull our young men and women out of Iraq. To go hand in hand with the war in Iraq some seem to think that a draft would open our eyes. A quote in the Boston Globe reads, "Reinstate the military draft and see how quickly the United States ends its war in Iraq" (Vennochi). This again ties to a general concern of the well being of our men and women in arms.…

    Bringing Back the Draft

    The subject of drafting men into the army isn’t very complex, it is a mere answer of either you are or you aren’t for drafting. Author, Charles B. Rangel, in his article “Bring Back the Draft,” he shares with us his view point of the draft. From the name of the title you already know that the author is for a draft. His article came from Casebook: The Draft and National Service. I will discuss in my essay Charles B. Rangel’s viewpoints and then cover my own personal view of his article. Rangel is a democrat, whose beliefs are bold and clear for bringing the draft back into the United States of America. I feel that bringing the draft back into the United States is not what the government should do. A draft only enlists the inexperienced civilian who does not know much about war, and this would only increase the death count in warfare combat.…

    In conclusion, the banning of books should not be permitted in any organization, especially for educational purposes because children need to be exposed to what they will experience in the future, children need to learn their history, and children cannot be deprived of freedom because of the constitution.
