where instead of watching the news‚ a person would have listened to it. Instead of playing with LEGOs‚ a child just read a book. Or instead of heating food up in a microwave‚ a man just heated it up on a stove. Or even life without a computer. It sure would be hard to imagine living like that‚ wouldn’t it? Well that’s what life would be like today without inventions from the 1940’s. Color TV‚ LEGOs‚ Microwaves and many other things that mankind uses today were invented in the 1940’s. Some of these

11/16/12 Observation Paper This Monday‚ I ventured to the nearby Child Daycare center‚ Bright Beginnings‚ in an attempt to analyze the behavior of children.

Eagerly‚ I hurried down into my basement to see the creations that I had made the other day. Soaring high like the Empire State building‚ my Star Wars lightsaber stood on top of a red Lego Box in the middle of the basement.

One poem was titled‚ “Bad Guy‚” and I remember it was supposed to follow a rhyme scheme: AABBA. My illustration depicts a frightening one-armed man holding a child’s doll over a roaring campfire. The poem reads‚ “Jayvir is a really bad boy/ He broke all the children’s
