Immigrants come to America in hopes of finding and achieving the “American Dream”. Some do end up achieving this goal, but for a majority of immigrants, they are faced with racism and discrimination because of their culture. When asked for our nationality or where we are from, they do not expect us to say American or America, and when we do, they say “No, where are you REALLY from?” Immigrants are told to assimilate and join the American culture, but when they do so, they are still reminded that…

The fingerprints on the tin foil matched a 2 different student which mean this was because of 2…
Both writers see narrative as overwhelmingly malleable, shattering traditional novel forms. Milan Kundera’s The Book of Laughter and Forgetting is diffuse with, tone, plot, and characters seem to wander all over the map. Gunter Grass’ My Century is constructed in a similar manor. However, both novels carry a strong thematic and emotional content. Kubdera’s shattered, oblique approach to narrative, and Grass’ step-by-step march through the years. This essay will comment on the effectiveness of…
idea again, but Isaac said it was too simple and wasn’t going to work. Even though he didn’t like my idea no one else had a better idea, so we tried it anyways. All we had to do was shape tin foil into a bowl like structure, and make sure it didn’t have any openings to let water in. We put a second layer of tin foil over it, Isaac’s idea, to try to make sure it didn’t let on water. When we tested it, it tipped over on its own because it was too top heavy, but it needed to be tall, so that it…
“R”Rovers are an important part of our lives. They allow us to see beyond our earth. We made our rovers to help us understand the scientific process and how to create an experiment. Making this rover also refreshed our memory of the concept of elastic energy. Not to rub it in your face, but EarthToy Designs enlisted in our help to design this rover, too. They asked us to make a rover that can be adjusted to go different distances. Of course, we have to think about the environment while making…
