Great student writing

The main point that make their writing skillfully is that they use many details and dramatic points in time. This makes the story more interesting and make you imagine more of what's happening in the story. A lot of the stories show scenes that make you believe like you are in the actual place of the story.

Some of the assignments we did in the last semester is many short stories. My favorite one must be is when we wrote a story of our own character.My writing has improve on using better vocabulary and using more scenes to make my reader imagine the scene. To improve my writing would be by making better usage of the words and description of my settings.

Kindred Poster Questions

1. Seconds count when something is trying to kill you
Oh,But I'm talking about suicide
To survive my ancestors had to put up with more than I ever could.
I like this poem because it talks about how ancestors put up with it, and the new ones can't go threw the little things in this world.
2. The most catching picture that caught my eyes where Tia's Group. The world being put has a timer showing how things change threw out time.
3. " I had seen people beaten on television and in the movies. I had sen the too red blood substitute street across their backs and heard their well-rehearsed screams. But I hadn't lain hear by and smelled their sweat or heard them pleading and praying, shamed before their families and themselves." This quote shows how people can take things has in pain physically and emotionally and still go threw the days. Ancestors not saying anything to the brutal punishments. Violence can be seen every where.
4. I believe that they are going to fight over something but by the end they are going to work it out. They might split for a big reason possibly when the boy Rufus knows the truth or something happens with Dana and Alice.

Slavery In America

How did slavery change America? What are the effects of slavery that we see in today's society?

Slavery has changed America in many ways by having racism been going for a century now. Many people have discriminated others just for their skin color. Some effect we see today in society would be the ideaology of a race being superior to another based on skin color. Discrimination seen pretty much in every corner of this country. Having freedom of speech makes us say things that hurt other and makes us fight rather than come together.
