In America, kids are taught to read by sounds, how “the” sound, how each syllable is supposed to sound like however I was though differently, since I was born in Canada. I am French Canadian and how we learned to read was by seeing the word and each word had a different picture of them, for example, “mama” ,the word for mom in french, looks totally different than “papa”,the word for dad. We were never forced to read anything however during our break, while in class, we did not have anything to do except strategy games or reading books, so we end up reading scary books or “go to a certain page ”books. Before coming to America, I had never ever had to write a book report in my life.
What are masks? One usually thinks it is an object the individual puts on and takes off.
Introduction: Patrons of the season of Halloween spend over $2.5 billion dollars every year on candy, costumes, and decorations. Every year millions of kids get dressed up, knock on doors, and beg for candy. Have you ever wondered where this strange tradition originated? The three most important points of Halloween can be summed up by looking at its origins, how it came to include jack-o-lanterns and bobbing for apples, and how it is celebrated today with trick-or-treating and haunted houses.
We all went to sleep and woke up at six in the morning. When we got up, we all ate donuts that Landon's uncle brought us. After we ate, we all decided to change and put socks and shoes on. As we waited for the trailer of the Mardi Gras to come down the road, we all go really nervous but excited at the same time. When the Mardi Gras finally came, we waited by the road until they jumped out the trailer after us. Once they jumped out, we all headed straight for the woods. We ran all the way to the back until we could not go any farther due to a canal. We decided to hide for a short period of time, so the Mardi Gras would lose our trails. After a couple of minutes we decided to run out and confront the Mardi Gras. They chased after us, and when they caught
Leaves crunched under my feet as I ran from the police officer. Out of the corner of my eye, I spied a set of rectangular eyes on a porch. I ran to the door and knocked. “Trick or treat!” A hand reached out and placed a handful of candy corn in my bag. Soon my brother caught up, light from the full moon reflected off his plastic badge. Reaching in my bag I found grabbed some interesting feeling triangular candies and popped them in my mouth. Tonight my candy corn addiction had started.
“To a mystery movie and then a mansion with a bunch of people we don't know,” she replied.
Every year millions of kids get dressed up, knock on doors, and beg for candy. With Halloween just around the corner, you all are probably wondering where this strange tradition came from. Every year I have experienced this holiday and have done research on this topic. According to a 2014 Smithsonian.com article, stated by Natasha Geiling, in just one year Americans spent over six billion dollars on candy, costumes, and ghoulish decor in anticipation for Halloween. Many people think all Halloween is about dressing up and going trick or treating but there's more to it than that. The roots and variations from all around are what makes Halloween what it is today. In order to understand this holiday, we will go into the history of Halloween, how it's celebrated around the world, and superstitions revolving it.
On a dark and creepy day on Halloween night some kids were going trick or treating but not all of them. Except the three Jameson kids who decided to stay home this year. The oldest boy’s name is Tommy, the middle child is a girl and her name is Sara lastly the youngest boy’s name is Tyrone. Before the permission from their mom, she has warned them about the missing kids who didn't decide to participate in Halloween last year who went off to do whatever they wanted and were missing so she is hopeful that they are not planning on going anywhere this halloween. An hour passed by and they realized that it was only 11:00 and Halloween wasn’t over yet. On the other hand, they were not even receiving candy so Tommy has come up with an idea that instead of staying in the house empty handed; he has something else in mind. Maybe we can sneak out the house and go to the haunted mansion by the gloomy corn field. Sarah did not agree, but it will be better than staying in the house. Tyrone agrees with anything but he just wants a piece of candy before the night is over.
Halloween: the holiday where as kids we couldn’t wait to go door to door to achieve the golden goal of a full bag of candy. Halloween soon turns into a question mark for teens; in an instant, there is a change of when it is ‘appropriate’ to go trick-or-treating and when you should just move on. Are you the one who thinks Trick-or-treating is lame or the one who still walks around your neighborhood every year -- no matter how many dirty looks you may get. What teenagers decide to do on Halloween varies: going to a party, passing out candy, staying home are a few popular options. Throughout my highschool experience I have been able to witness and experience all different types of halloteens, each with their own traits.
Paul Laurence Dunbar, dispatches the cold troubles of African Americans in the lyrical poem, "We Wear the Mask." In this poem, Dunbar links imagery, rhythm, rhyme, and word choice to in order to institute a connection to the reader. From reading the poem, one can infer that Mr. Dunbar is speaking in general, of the misery that many people keep concealed under a grin that they wear very well. But if one were to go further and take the time to research Mr. Dunbar’s selection of this piece and the era of which this poem was written, one would come to understand that this poem focuses entirely on Paul Laurence Dunbar’s viewpoints on racial prejudice and the struggle for equality for the African-American’s of his time period. Though this
One misty fall evening Jon and Jack were walking down an old street lined by lamp posts headed toward Jacks house. “I really love autumn don’t you Jon?” asked Jack. “Yeah I do, the cool crisp air, the changing of the leaves, Halloween on its way and Thanksgiving with ham and turkey,” replied Jon. “Yes Halloween is my favorite holiday with carving pumpkins, candy, dressing up and just the mystical feeling in the air,” said Jack. “Agreed,” said Jon. “Speaking of Halloween will you be dressing up as this year?” Asked Jon. “I was thinking about dressing up as a skeleton in a suit, what about you?” said Jack. “Probably a pirate,” said Jon. “Cool, are you going to go around the neighborhoods or just downtown?” said Jack. “Probably just

Borrowing from Irish and English traditions, Americans began to dress up in costumes and go house to house asking for food or money. Over time this tradition turned in to today modern “trick or treating”. In the late 1800s, America turned Halloween into a holiday more about community and neighborly get-togethers than about ghosts, and witchcraft. As the centuries changed Halloween parties for both children and adults became the most common way to celebrate the day. Parties focused on games, foods of the season and festive costumes. Parents were encouraged by newspapers and community leaders to take anything “frightening” or “grotesque” out of Halloween celebrations. Because of these efforts, Halloween lost most of its superstitious and religious overtones by the beginning of the twentieth century (Kammen).
