I hope you had a great day today and that you are doing fine. This is Cindy Perez and you will probably notice that I send you two DQ3 responses. I want to excuse myself from doing that but my first response was not the one that I wanted to send. My computer was having some problems today, I was in a hurry and I had class today. I just wrote what I thought that I could remember.…
Hello Ms. Finkelman, I would like to express my sincere thanks that you have taken time out of your schedule to work with me on my Vocational Rehabilitation Case. I’m aware that you made an exception to your busy schedule to even see me on Monday, 26 October, at 10:30 am. That is why I wanted to ensure that I express my thoughts to you in a written correspondence that you might reference in my absence. Requesting vocational rehabilitation services to attain a doctoral degree is not the normal; I know and fully understand that; however I would like VA to know by doing so they will be fulfilling a lifetime goal of a disabled Veteran.…

She makes us essay become better and better.…
A lot of people enter your class with preconceived notions of soon-to-come “failing grades” and lots of stress. I was actually looking forward to your class. Going into Honors English, I was hoping I’d get you as my teacher. It’s not very nice to say, but I let out a little sigh of relief when I saw your name on my schedule and not Ms. Wentworth’s. This is all about honesty, though.…
History books have forgotten to include many significant events and people in the past, some of which have been the root cause for the trends, habits and. Likewise, in the 1800s, there was a group of middle class people among the Tejanos whose stories have been left out in many history books. The raza of middling status had been a part of Texas history from the 1830s, with farming and low-level government jobs as their primary income. They were the “better class” among the Mexicans who lived in some parts of the South Texas (De Leon 60). As John C. Maxwell, an American author targeting at leadership qualities said, “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.”…

As I looked over my 13 years of life, I have come to the conclusion that I am a somewhat privileged person. Our family hasn’t had problems with food, or keeping a roof over our heads. I have had the advantages of going to school without a problem, summer camps, tennis, and the video games I play. The only real disadvantage I see is affording for college. It is a lot of money, so I am expected to get scholarship.…
In the PBS documentary called "A Class Divided", examines at a two-day experiment conducted by a third-grade teacher, Jane Elliot, in Iowa. The horrific day after Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated, Jane Elliot knew that preaching to her third graders against discrimination wasn’t nearly enough. Ms. Elliot asks her students, “What is brotherhood?” The students answered with the golden rule and also said it is about treating everyone like they are your brother. She then asked her students,“ Is there anyone in this United Stated that we don’t treat as our brothers?”…
In Greg Mantsios’ essay, “Class in America-2012”, Mantsios depicts different aspects of social class. It is fair to say that Mantsios is a believer that the rich exploit the poor, and that the rich get richer, while the poor get poorer. In his essay, there are four myths about class in America, ten realities of class in America, and three different profiles of people’s lives since birth, all of whom have different social class levels. Social class categorizes people into upper-call, middle-class, and lower-class, and in Mantsios’ essay, he highlights how social class causes division in the United States while he favors the idea of the radical redistribution of wealth. While Manstios claims that the rich exploit the poor, he does not emphasize…
Claim: Prejudice and discrimination is unfair; treating others different is unethical. No group is superior than others, as the PBS film Class Divided experiment conducted by Mrs. Elliot had proven how children are taught to discriminate from such an young age. Agreeing with the textbook, Social Problems, in regards to the harm it can cause, “...larger society is damaged because it misses out on what the victims could contribute; moreover, society is harmed further because racial tensions create conflict that makes the society less productive and harmonious” (Best 5). Grounds: Mrs. Elliot announce to her students both Tuesday and Thursday, reversing the blue-eyes and brown-eyes superiority than the other. For example, the first day of experiment, “the blue-eyed people are the better people in this room.…
Andrew Hanson’s In-school suspension reflection At 2:00, we were playing American Idol in Band class. At the end of the period, we ended up finishing up a round of American Idol, but about half of the class had not yet gone yet. So I walk from band to P.E., talking to Cassidy on the way. I go to my locker, per usual, to get my stuff.…
Dr. Larkins, I recently found out that my husband's grandma passed away. We are planning on attending the funeral this Saturday in Minnesota. I am going to try and make it back for class on 2/15, but I am not sure we will be back in time. I was wondering if I could be exeused from class ( there is a chance I can make the last hour of class). I know that my group has a presentation on Monday.…
This letter may come as a surprise to you since it is being sent out so early, but Easter is drawing near and the class thought that it would be good to write our buddies before the Holiday. Although since we are also sending out an Easter card to accompany these letters, they may be a little shorter than usual. Anyways, I hope this letter finds you good health, even though we were recently made aware that you were feeling a little under the weather. As you may have remembered, the last time I wrote you I mentioned an event by the name of careers and manners. I would love to tell you about that, but unfortunately I was feeling a little under the weather myself and had to leave school before the event began.…
Made it through another semester This semester I learned that some of us read and write more then we think we on a daily basis. There are different ways of reading and writing outside of the classroom. After we did the reading and writing journals earlier this semester I noticed that I read more then I write in my free time and for class, like text, social media, ESPN updates, books, and flyers.…
