I chose to travel to was Penn Treaty Park. When I was much younger my mother took my brother and I to that park to ride our bikes. However‚ this time I had a different vendetta and the park was significantly more important. One of the first things I noticed when I walked into the park was a statue of William Penn. Surrounding his statue was a multitude of plaques with different types of scripture on them. One that caught my eye explained the history and importance of Penn Treaty Park. It explained

The Evolution of Skyscrapers Skyscrapers define the American city. The desire to build bigger is not new. Big buildings have been built to show off power and financial success. When it comes to skyscrapers‚ size does matter. They were once considered purely an American construct; skyscraper construction is now very much a global one.

Increasing Fluency A fun and effective way of improving fluency is using Reader’s Theatre. The teacher selects a story either specifically written as a Reader’s Theatre story or adapts a story she likes or one that is part of the school’s reading program. This activity involves the whole class as everyone takes a part as a character or narrator. The teacher may even break up into two groups; readers and audience. The students use their voice to give meaning to the words. There is no

Should William Penn be a heroic figure to American history? Throughout British proprietary colonization of the Americas‚ there were many different motives for claiming American soil by those whom were audacious enough to consider the prospect of funding a distant statehood. Penn claimed to see his colony as a “holy experiment” (page XIII); who differed from its “peers” in the respect that it had intent to provide refuge to those whom faced religious persecution‚ even so‚ the “devout” Quaker‚ eventually

students achieve higher grades‚ and therefore have even more university and college acceptance. Improvements such as free internet‚ a library on campus and free parking will for sure be solutions with a positive aftermath. My first suggestion to improving the school is free internet. Internet can be a positive solution for those students in St.Louis that English is not their first language.

Never Stop Improving Last year I met this man who turned 45 and was filling in his application to study law in America. He was Romanian‚ had a Doctoral Degree in Space Robots and had been leaving in Seoul for many years. Still‚ he felt it was not too late to make his first million dollars in the States and bring up his daughter in a different country and culture. His example somehow motivated me to pursue my dream and enroll in MBA this year‚ despite I completely lack any financial education. It

They would rather spend the money to have their own biological children than take in a child that many believe will become nothing but a detriment to society. Just because many foster children suffer emotional

The most effective way I know to improve your writing is to do freewriting exercises regularly. At least three times a week. They are sometimes called "automatic writing‚" "babbling‚" or “jabbering" exercises. The idea is simply to write for ten minutes (later on‚ perhaps fifteen or twenty). Don’t stop for anything. Go quickly without rushing. Never stop to look back‚ to cross something out‚ to wonder how to spell something‚ to wonder what word or thought to use‚ or to think about what you are doing
