“No Short Cuts 4- box cartoon” In the poum, No Short Cuts, Mr.Carter was trying to tell the reader that there's no point in taking the easy way out because the best part of a trip is the jury and you'll just miss out. My classmates thought I did a good job and they said I like how you showed the lesson by showing how short cuts can be bad,and I like the way you showed the lesson by showing him sleeping instead of doing his homework. Another one of my classmates said I like how you did the computer and the video game. Something I need to work on is not to draw stick figures and put more colors.
A choice made by Mrs.Fisher's has affected Paul by being nosey and wanting a toure of the school, the only way she could get the toure of the school was saying that Paul was blind. It says “We were hoping to see exactly where Paul will be going next week. He has problems with his eyesight- he’s legally blind- so we were hoping yo make a dry run today.” (pg.25). When Mrs.Fisher signs Paul up for IEP his first day of school he gets called up to the office for a guider around the school. It says here “All right, Paul, this is Kerri Gardner, one of our school volunteers. Kerri will act as your eyes, so to speak, until you’ve learned your way around our campus.” (pg.38). When Mrs.Fisher filled out the IEP, it ruined Pauls chance to play on the Lake Windsor soccer team. This quote says “ Coach Walski looked pained. “I’m sorry to tell you this, Paul, but you’re not eligible for the program.” (pg.62).
The title of the cartoon that I have chosen is “Fire,” by Herblock . In the cartoon there is a man with the words “hysteria” written on the side of his leg. The man is climbing a ladder that leads to the Statue of Liberty’s torch with the a bucket, filled with water. The man seems to be trying to put the fire that is on the Statue of Liberty’s torch out. My interpretation of this cartoon is that in the midst of all the craziness with Mccarthyism, The anti-communist are crushing many freedoms and liberties that the Americans had. In my opinion, this cartoon is effective because when Americans understand the meaning of the cartoon, they will realize anti-communist are threatening their liberties. After World War II Russians forced communist control
To start off, Paul choices to go to Tangerine Middle School to start a fresh and new life. The reason why he did this was because his school was involved in a horrific sinkhole that destroyed his school. Since, his whole life had been ripped apart from getting kicked off the soccer team because he had trouble with his eyesight and an IEP, he decided to go to a new school. In the book it states, “Just give me this chance. Both of you. I want to go to Tangerine Middle School, and I want to go with no IEP” (94). His parents finally saw what Paul was going through a gave him a chance to go to Tangerine Middle School. As a result, Paul makes new friends and joins there soccer team. This makes him see that he can not always be better than everybody and this made him work
That Mr. MacPherson has grown tired of his job, he thinks that there isn’t much hope in being a teacher and that nothing good has come out of it. His students have drove him to regretting his career choice, that maybe the result of him not being the best teacher and letting the student get to him like they did.
What's In A Name is a cartoon in the Gilded Age that represents the goals of labor unions. This is because it is about the Haymarket affair, one of the most important rallies of the time period. This then led to the downfall of the Knights Of Labor and the rise of later labor unions.
“ Okay, we go. We watch little lily-liver Leper not jump from the tree, and I ruin my grade,” Gene says, “… Don’t go. Your grades are more important.” says Finny
The lesson begins with the Teacher using a remote to click through a series of scenes taking place between the Jumper and Good Samaritan, with the plot not turning out as one would expect. The first scene shown lacks conflict and does not allow for further plot; therefore the Teacher explains that this is not satisfying to the audience. The second scene also lacks conflict, by resolving too quickly, and the third scene is absurd with both characters using unnecessarily foul language that does not appeal to any kind of viewer. As the Teacher clicks through several more poorly constructed scenes the other two characters come to life and revolt which causes the Teacher to lose control. The true comedic events ensue when the Teacher battles with the other characters in order to regain control over the play. Surprisingly the Teacher is the one who becomes the victim to death, thereby creating an example of a well written play.
John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men tells a story of two very different friends how both share the dream of one day buying their own farm. George and Lennie are both two workers that take temporary jobs at different ranches. That the new job that they get to meet Candy, the old “swamper” who cleans the bunkhouse; Slim, the “prince of the ranch”; Crooks, the African American stable hand. Then there is also Curley, the boss’s son and Curley’s wife, women that is desperate for the attention. Throughout the story, Steinbeck uses a lot of foreshadowing to prepare the reader what is about to occur. The plans of the characters going “askew,” the death of Curley’s wife, the loss of the farm dream, and the death of Lennie; are four clear examples of Steinbeck’s
Cartoons have been use for many years and its modern usage refers to a typically non-realistic or semi-realistic drawing or painting intended for satire, caricature, or mock different things. John Backderf, known as Derf, is a famous and recognized cartoonist “who works out of an unheated, attic studio in his Cleveland home, grew up in a rural, small town in Ohio and went to high school with serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer” (“Bio”). He drew a cartoon in 1995 in which he presents an implicit theory about how and why things evolve to be “cool”. This paper will elaborate on explaining what Derf’s theory actually is, an interpretation of the meaning presented in the cartoon, and a fad or style that follows Derf’s theory.
Dear Mr. Vernon: We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was that we did wrong. What we did was wrong. But we think you’re crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. What do you care? You see us as you want to see us…in the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions. You see us as a brain,(as a still shot of the computer classroom is shown) an athlete, (still of the locker room) a basket case, (still shot of the guidance counselor’s desk) a princess, (still shot of a poster “Vote For Your Prom Queen” in the hall) and a criminal (still shot of Bender’s locker which reads, “open this locker and die”).
Sunshine was pouring out from in between the buildings, casting shadows all around Ponyboy and the gang as they walked to Pony’s school. They were taking their time walking down the streets and for the first time they all were really seeing what was all around them. Memories were surfacing in their minds showing them what it all meant to them. With every step they took on the sidewalk they remembered a different memory as if they were walking down memory lane. Ponyboy didn’t think it was possible for him to be walking down this street for the last time as a high school student, but he had gone through the years with great grades that earned him many scholarships.
“America’s Unknown Child” has been an unsolved and mysterious case for over 60 years of a young boy who was murdered and found inside of a cardboard box in the woods. Many detectives and investigators searched for any records and ran DNA analysis of the boy that could indicate who he was and where he came from. After over 60 years of conducted research and long investigations, there is only one possible solution to the tragic murder of this boy.
In the first source, The picture depicts the same boy before and after his enrolment in one of the many residential schools in Canada. Right off the bat, we can see the drastic change in appearance. Although not noticeable The boy’s personality, knowledge and culture have also probably changed. At the time residential schools were made mandatory for kids, with the motivation of assimilating the natives and hopes of “killing the Indian within them.” These schools were constructed because the Indian Act (Act government used to encourage assimilation) made federal government responsible for education. Children were taken away from their families, sometimes by force striping them from their identity forever. Digging deeper we can infer that the cause of residential schools stems back to the cultural contact between the two nations. The clashing social values of the two cultures is what created the foundation of residential schools.
2. The brief conclusions all serve to indicate cold, harsh, and impactful conclusions to his yearly cycle which further emphasize the schism between school years. Some of the conclusions serve different functions, though. For example, when he ends his third grade segment with “I’m still waiting.” it is short and impactful; but, when he ends the fifth grade segment with a rhetorical question “Oh, do you remember those sweet, almost innocent choices that the Indian boys were forced to make?” the segment seems to linger on for a moment longer, portraying that the event had a stronger impression than the previous, shorter conclusion.
While these conflicts themselves might have held the jurors back, the competition approach to these sources of conflict moved the group in the right direction. For example, Juror #9, the old man, approached Juror #10’s insults and stereotyping in competitive fashion, claiming that people are not simply born liars. Later, Juror #10 calls the accused boy a “common ignorant slob [that] don’t even speak good English,” after which immigrant Juror #11 competitively corrects him. In the end, almost every juror takes a competitive approach to juror #10’s insulting in one of the film’s most powerful scenes as they, one by one, leave the table and turn their backs on him. The jurors unsympathizing intolerance of Juror #10’s bigoted views serve as a prime example of a competitive approach to conflict. The conflict and the approach to the conflict between the jurors and Juror #10 bring the group together as the votes slowly change from guilty to not guilty.
