Fab 5
Basketball has always been a favorite sport of Americans. Originally basketball players would wear mini shorts and short socks. When the Fab Five were recruited to the Michigan college team they changed the look of the sport forever. They brought in their own looks, styles and methods to playing. (not a clear thesis statement/not a direct debatable statement) In 1989, on the eve of the final championship game, Steve Fisher became the head coach for Michigan State. He and the team went on to win the championship. Even though they won Steve didn’t really get the credit for the game since he had just been hired the night before. With the next season fast approaching fans and critics were anxious to see if the new coach had good recruiting skills. His first pursuit was Juwan Howard from Chicago, Illinois. He attended Chicago

My strongest point in my essay was my thesis statement. The thesis statement was short but very guiding. It guided the reader into the keys points of my essay. 29 I’ve really struggled with writing thesis statements, so what I decided to do was give myself random essays with a topic and write thesis statements on them. I would figure out what the main points would be in my essay and put those topics into my thesis statement. It really made my thesis statements stronger in my writing.
Christina and I spoke on the phone with a man named Renaldo Reser. Mr. Reser has been a member of the non-profit organization, A Better LA, since 2006. Since Los Angeles has a negative reputation when it comes to its youth and gang violence, NFL coach Pete Carroll felt it was his obligation to make a change. Mr. Reser said Carroll established A Better LA to transform “the root from within to give people a reason to hope for a better tomorrow.” The very reason this organization was founded was on the basis for “hope.” Aspirational capital is the main community cultural wealth exerted (Yosso). African-American children have a place to go to hide from violence and gang initiations.
In order to maintain a healthy lifestyle individuals need to remain physically active every day to ensure a long and healthy lifestyle. When an individual often works out whether in the comfort of their own home, running out on the streets, or in a gym, majority of the time they wear clothing that is meant for their specific usage. In this case, individuals who play basketball often wear basketball shorts provide comfort, movement, and airflow. The style of shorts that majority of youth and society wears are much longer than past times. When an individual throws on a pair of basketball shorts and heads to the recreation center to shoot hoops, do they realize the connection between the style of shorts they are wearing to the racial inequalities individuals faced setting that trend? An everyday item such as a pair of basketball shorts has a deep historical relationship when it comes to racial differences and in this case, it passes through the lives of the Fab Five. The Fab Five consisted of five freshman for the Michigan Wolverines basketball team in 1991. Their dislike of the short shorts that professional basketball players such as John Stockton wore led to their desire of wearing long and baggy shorts that provided more comfort with the ability of keeping their jersey tucked in. As a result of their difference in appearance, culture, and influence based
Part One: Using what you have learned in English class, change the following topics into thesis statements. Remember: subject + the side of the argument + 3 main points = thesis. State your own opinion on the topic along with 2-3 reasons for support.
Who were the Beatles, some young people might ask to their parents. They would say the Beatles were one of the best bands ever. They competed with The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix. They sold out huge shows every girl screamed when they saw them. The Beatles easily became number one and it got even easier went they got a new name
I had a hard time picking which essays to use. I had a lengthy discussion with myself before I decided on “What Does It Means To Be Well-Educated” by Alfie Kohn. I do think that I’m well educated even though I didn’t learn anything from the school district that I was enrolled in I always said to myself that I wouldn’t want my children to have to go through the things I had to go through. How I became aware of things or learn things was because I do a lot of research and ask questions so I can find out more about what I need and wanted to know. What I think about the term “what does it mean to be well-educated” is I am aware that some believe, based on their own words, that if black children grow up to be adults who are well-educated, friendly, and polite, no harm won 't come to them. If they obey the rules, they 'll be safe. But recent news has proven that this isn’t always true. There aren’t any hard and fast rules, promises, assurance, or guarantees. Once we understand what “well-educated” actually means in the deplorable illiteracy age, we 'll have an understanding that a good education will never decay. The two bumper stickers one that says who is “educated” in this way, will apparently believe that “Well-behaved women don’t make history.” This what we, the uneducated, call bad behavior, the liberal elite call being well-educated.
The Fab Four Like George Harrison said, “The Beatles saved the world from boredom.” What George Harrison is trying to say is that The Beatles had the ability to entertain. Together they were known as The Fab Four because of their talent to put on an awesome show. The Beatles are influential because of the rock music they produced and they were outstanding role models.
In middle school, there are many things to learn. From ordinary multiplication problems, to biological anatomy, there's an amazingly diverse amount of subjects students can learn in main school courses. However, there should also be many electives and after school activities to participate in. At Scotts Valley Middle School, there are three seventh grade electives for each trimester. Each one is unique, providing different opportunities for students, including Directed Studies, where you can work on homework and school projects early, Spanish, where you learn Spanish language skills from Mr. Sampson, and Health class, where Mr. Allen teaches things about the human body.
The Harbaugh era is officially underway. Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh captured his first victory as Wolverines head coach with a 35-7 victory over Oregon State Saturday afternoon. Had Harbaugh dropped his initiation in Ann Arbor, Maize and Blue fans may have been seen shopping for Scarlet and Grey. Ok, that’s probably a stretch, but Harbaugh’s first victory as Michigan’s head coach showed Wolverine fans what they can expect as long as he’s at the helm — Winning. It could take a season or two for Harbaugh to bring Michigan back to prominence, but the fiery khaki savant has a proven track record of turning teams around.
On April 4th, 1964, The Beatles were the first and only band to hold the first five positions on the Billboard charts (billboard). To this day, they still hold the record on the Billboard charts for having the most No. 1 singles with a leading number of 20. They even went as far as receiving MBE (Members of the British Empire) medals from Queen Elizabeth II for their musical achievements (telegraph). The Fab Four were undoubtedly successful musicians. When they rose to fame, they brought a new type of excitement back to music. Sure, there were other rock bands competing with them, but one important difference between both was that The Beatles were memorable, even to this day; but why? The Beatles were different from any other rock and roll
It is invaluable to be able to capture the emotion and experiences of adventures and expeditions throughout the world.
With the 1992 Summer Olympics around the corner, the hype for this event was so great because everyone had their eyes on the legendary Dream Team. The team had eleven future NBA Hall of Famers with Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Patrick Ewing, Charles Barkley, David Robinson, Scottie Pippen, John Stockton, Karl Malone, Chris Mullin, Clyde Drexler, and a college kid winning back to back titles with Duke University, Christian Laettner. This team was so hyped that everyone basically watched the Olympics to see how great this team was. It was so great people thought it was not fair for them to compete because they were unbeatable but that did not stop them. They won all their games with a margin of forty points and won the gold. The
You have a clear thesis statement and I like how your essay is a very fluent paragraph by paragraph. You have a lot of good ideas, but you need to expand them more in order to show the readers what you want them to know. It a very informative essay, you did give a lot information about student worries about having their major undecided before they came to college and some ways that can help those students out. But I still has some suggestion wants to share with you. For the introduction paragraph one, you talked about undeclared students become worried and anxious, then you then you use Schmidt’s article to prove your idea, but after that you again said about that is the example of students become worried and anxious. I think it is creating
The thesis statement is one of the most important elements of any successful essay. It is
In the process of submitting my essay for review, I requested that the writing specialist focused on my thesis statement, grammar, and mechanics. When writing academic papers and discussion responses, I often struggle with clarity, sentence structure, and punctuation, which result in lower assignment grades. Therefore, to ensure that I clearly communicate my argument and facts in my final paper, I felt that it was necessary to have these two areas reviewed. Regarding my thesis statement, I wanted to ensure that my position, supporting reasons, and implications were combined, effectively.
