Reflection On The Other Moore

Throughout this school year, you have taught me many things. In your class, I learned about Anne Frank and the epoch(14) in which she was alive, the Holocaust. I read many books, but I found The Other Wes Moore to be the more crucial(15) than the others. Also, you taught me the correct way to use the comma. In addition to the seemingly infinite(14) amount of work, there were some fun activities I did. My favorite was the Quiz Game. This year was the only year that I actually enjoyed ELA. The last

Government book Report-Michael Moore, Dude where’s my country, Brittiany Rorrer Summary- In my personal overview, I have found Dude Where’s my Country to be a funny, informative, and self-concise read. Right off the bat, it gave me greater insight as to what happened on 9/11 and of the x-president George Bush ties to mildest. While doing this it also informed me of all the unanswered questions that are in connection to George Bush? Man Michael Moore really hates George Bush, I wouldn’t blame him

As I was reading the book since it was put into the views of two people it was kind of confusing to notice who was who in the book. Whether Wes Moore who was a successful business leader was talking or the Wes Moore who ended up going with a life sentence in prison was speaking. Sometimes I would get confused and think that one Wes Moore’s family member was the others. Although in certain

Many of them took part in the crusades, while others achieved distinction in the French war at home and abroad (Hamm, 1902, p. 64). Additionally, they were some of the first converts to the Reformed faith, which is what led them to Holland before their fateful voyage in 1623. Reflection: What does this mean for me as an educator? Part of my role is as a recruiter for our school district, and I recognize what a valuable opportunity I have to actively seek diverse teachers and administrators for

Comparing my life to the two Wes Moores, I realized that my life was privileged compared to theirs. “The Other Wes Moore” is a book depicting the lives of two men with the same name but having completely different lives, one with a fortunate ending but the other with a tragic one. This book helps show how your decisions can affect your destiny and helps influence your choices in what you make of your life.

With a sense of grand design and depth of characterization to emulate War and Peace or any literary classic for that matter, there was another major Moore punch to the stomach of critics and readers, friends and enemies:

Watchmen is a revolutionary piece of literature. It is technically a comic book, some prefer to call it a graphic novel. There is a negative connotation that goes along with that. Graphic novels are frequently presumed too childish and fantastic to actually teach any insightful lessons or even make you ponder them at all. Watchmen is a graphic novel that transcends this undue criticism of comic books. It is, “One of the first instances ... of [a] new kind of comic book ... a first phase of development

neighborhoods are affected by their surroundings and that children learn from experience. When Sylvia says Miss Moore always plans "boring-ass things for us to do” (171), we, the readers get insight concerning Sylvia’s rebellious behavior and her deficiency of respect towards adults in her life. Sylvia uses irony to mock or convey contempt when she mentions her experiences with Miss Moore. Bambara presented this to bring out Sylvia’s traits. Even though Sylvia is quick to be involved in mischief, the
