A topic that I get so engaged to that makes me lose track of time is talking about The Flash. Just so you aren’t lost while reading my essay, The Flash is a tv show that is very inspiring for a lot of people including myself. This show has a lot of life skills and obstacles you might face when you’re on your own in the real world. The main idea of the show is how a young man loses his mother when he is young boy and his father is wrongly accused of her murder. One day Barry Allen is working in his CSI lab and is struck by a lightning bolt from a particle accelerator and he is in a coma for nine months but when he wakes up he has super speed. One of the biggest inspirations of the show is how Barry Allen has these powers and instead of using them to get revenge on his mother's killer and getting his dad out of prison and spending all of his time on doing that he uses them to help out his city and keep the crime rates down. …show more content…
He is faced with many difficult choices including catching his mother's killer or helping someone in need but he always chooses to help the people in need a specially if he can make sure no one else loses a loved one like he did. Barry Allen has taught me that doing the right things will get you farther in life than just looking the other way. You don’t have to have superpowers to be a hero and the flash proves that every time. I think one of the biggest reasons I get so engaged into this topic is because I truly enjoy trying to put details together to figure out a crime. As a kid I always watched all the CSI tv shows so I could see how they caught criminals and solved crimes. In the flash Barry Allen is a CSI at the police department, he uses his skills as the flash and as a CSI to help solve

Through most of my time in high school, I always found myself writing more of exploratory writing for two simple reasons; it took a shorter amount of time, and relating writing to my personal experiences was something I had no need to look up. Exploratory writing is a time to take advantage to relate your own personal experiences and an attempt to make a connection with a certain reading. The experiences you have will not be exactly the same as you’re classmate and might be very enjoyable to read. Lamott and Hairston both use explanatory and exploratory writing in their essays by explaining the techniques of what good writers do and applying their own personal experiences. By applying both explanatory and exploratory in their essay they are able to provide the reader with new ideas they can adopt to improve their writing skills.
The LeapFrog LeapReader allows children from ages four to eight to have an interactive reading experience. The LeapReader teaches kids to read by touching pages or words with a specialized pen to hear them read aloud. It improves children’s vocabulary and comprehension skills by introducing them to new words in the endless interactive books available. Children can also learn to write by getting stroke-by-stroke guidance while tracing numbers, letters, and words. Children are able to develop their fine motor skills by using a pen-like device to trace the shapes. According to Jean Piaget, the Pre-operational Stage of cognitive development best describes the early childhood phase that the LeapReader is targeting. The Pre-operational Stage of symbolic play (or pretend play) is developed as the children read fictitious books that allow them to imagine a different world while drawing parallels to this world. A scene of two frogs playing might spark a child’s imagination. This elicits creativity in the children. As
This student takes us back to his childhood in Smallville and re-examines with us his upbringing, race relations in his town, his own awareness, and ultimately his and our need for change. He does this beautifully with the use of vivid and poignant imagery, juxtaposition, and allusions. Along the way, He takes us not just to Smallville but into our own lives and minds.
Head to head hits are still a prevalent issue in the Nfl. Should head to head hits lead to an ejection from the game? If a player in college football commits an intentional helmet to helmet hit, the penalty is an ejection. If college football can input this penalty, couldn’t the NFL? We see that former football players who suffered many concussions over their playing careers, have long lasting effects. Some current players feel as though that they can’t control where their hits land and injuries are just a part of the game. Some fans feel as though all these penalties are taking the fun away the game. Former NFL players are an example of what helmet to helmet hits can do.
Segregation in educational institutions taking place in the United States is not often talked about. People may consider apartheid schooling taking place presently to a nation that does not respect basic human rights. Thus, the injustices taking place in public schools are not easily classified because it is commonplace to many. It can be argued that apartheid schooling was never completely dismantled in the United States. Jonathan Kozol’s book The Shame of the Nation (2005) provides evidence and insight to apartheid within the educational system that children are currently experiencing. The structure in children’s curriculum, the way they are spoken to as well as the funding public schools are funded are examples to the inequalities that children face. Conceptually, structural violence is what keeps educational injustices to recur.
Possessing an underutilized brain is like making a billion dollars, but simply hiding the money away forever: there are so many opportunities that stem from it, but it is worthless because it is never put to use. Rene Descartes felt this way himself, as he said, “It is not enough to have a good mind. The main thing is to use it well.” I wholeheartedly agree with this quote; a mind is the most precious of commodities but one’s brain is not employed, than it is as useless as a pile of dirt. Still, not only does one have to make use of their mind, it must be in a way that can benefit society. Only than has one truly “used it well.” Despite what some may believe, it is not enough to simply be intelligence; one must use it to make something of themselves.
Unlike Joseph Campbell, Joseph Loeb and Tom Morris describe heroism as individuals who rise above the universal and altogether concern for the self and rather focus on the needs of others, serving the greater good and being selfless. (11). What made this definition superb compared to Joseph Campbell’s it that is breaks down the stereotypical hero and gives perspective to the everyday heroes. As stated in their work, “what’s so heroic about stopping an armed robbery if your skin is bulletproof and your strength is irresistible by an ordinary, or even extraordinary, street thug? (12). Yes, superhero’s have vulnerabilities within their character, but characters of all genres display tremendous acts of heroism, often overlooked to be considered heroic.
Before social media existed, people communicated by telephone lines and radio signals (Drew Hendricks) Telephone lines and radio signals enable to communicate at long distances (Drew Hendricks). In the 20th century technology became more advanced (Drew Hendricks) In the 1940s, computers were invented. Scientists and engineers worked together to create networks (Drew Hendricks). This leads to Internet. CompuServe developed in 1960’s. CompuServe was the first internet service that allows you to exchange emails. (Shea Bennett) It also allows you to share files and access news (Drew Hendricks). CompuServe was easy to access because computers were common in 1980’s (Drew Hendricks) This lead to social media.
Nobody can accomplish everything they want to do. Maybe there was a time when someone could have performed a heroic deed for the world, but something held them back. All superheroes (imaginable and real) have faced times in their lives where they couldn’t save the day, but it’s normal. Maybe one day, Bruce Wayne couldn’t turn into Batman and stop a jewelry store robbery all because he was sick with the flu. Or the average high school bystander couldn’t stop a bully because the tardy bell rang and he was late to band.
"The Necklace," Guy de Maupassant effectively employs a very dreary mood, despondent character and a surprise ending to develop the idea that when an individual is overcome by greed, that person has an excessive desire to obtain material wealth to feel self sustained.

A simple written story can be more effective than a more complex written story. I am quite sure that if the reader wanted something complex they would have went and purchased a Rubic Cube for entertainment purposes. Keeping the storyline simple is usually what the average reader is looking for when they are searching for something to read. Whether it is for pleasure or research the reader is more likely to be captivated by a simple written story than something a complicated worded story.
... all ages do not know how to write in cursive anymore. Some students may not know how to sign their name in cursive since it wont be taught anymore. One thing that many people worry about with digital learning is that students will spend too much time in front of a screen and keyboard. It is believed that these kids will have less of a social life and will be less likely to communicate through talking, but choosing to communicate through online messaging and texting. Though students have a variety of information at their finger tips, this can cause temptation for students to plagiarize. Devices such as iPads and laptops are useful learning tools, but at the same time they can be a huge source of distractions. While students should be taking notes, they could be browsing the web, updating social media sites, watching videos, playing games or other distracting things.
