They should not keep breathing over my neck to know everything there is to know about me by snooping through my room or for me to give them details on what happened

The book that I chose for my book report was “Lies My Teacher Told Me”‚ by James W. Loewen. At first‚ I thought this book would be the worse out of the 5 to read. I thought that I do not need some Book to tell me I am uneducated in American history. But after I read it‚ I realized that the book is much more than that. It is a critique on so many factors in our society. Only one is the student’s education. But it does not critique the American history student like I thought. If a student

The Park Everyone needs to take a break from their lifestyle and just sit down and take it all in sometimes. When I asked myself where the best place to do that is‚ I don’t have to think for more than a second. My favorite spot to sit and observe what’s going on is the park. The air always smells so fresh and clean‚ the grass was beginning to turn slightly brown. The ground was covered with a blanket of colorful leaves that had fallen from the trees like snow‚ leaving branches almost bare. The

In my opinion‚ cursive shouldn’t be taught in schools. It’s harder for kids to understand the letters in the alphabet. Did you know over $92 million tax funds were canceled because of cursive? Cursive is a waste of time and it can cause a lot of problems for people. Some people may say that cursive is important and it can take kids back to the older generations‚ but I don’t think that’s true‚ some kids can’t read cursive so they don’t understand it. Cursive hard to teach and to use‚ if cursive wasn’t

Almost every American textbook sells history using the “soft seduction” approach‚ as explained in Robert Greene’s book‚ The Art of
