Thanksgiving Persuasive Essay

Do you think students should have their full week off for Thanksgiving? Well I know I do and my plan is in this essay is to show you why we should have our full weekend for Thanksgiving. My first reason is we shouldn't because if you take Monday and Tuesday you mess up family's that have planned to go somewhere they can't and they have to cancel and the bad part is those family's might not get their money back. And my lead to this is one day in fourth grade we had 30 students and like fifteen checked out on a day that was a Student/Staff holiday because we used our last snow day. My second reasoning is people will be upset when their kid have a test on Monday and because they're not used to that they might get stressed and fail. Then parents

    Have you ever noticed how in the stores you will see a plethora of Halloween costumes, decorations and the like but immediately following Halloween, you see Christmas themed decorations all over and very little to commemorate Thanksgiving? The most I've seen have had leaves and maybe a cornucopia and really only enough scattered throughout the store to fill a half to one whole aisle. It seems that our national holiday is only truly named and observed within "leaked" black friday ads, alerting you to when the advertised deals start. This never really bothered me in the past. As a little girl Thanksgiving was all about the Macy's Parade, the dog show, food, and the countdown until santa claus and presents galore.…

    "Throw another shrimp on the barbie" is a tagline from a 1984 advertising commercial that is now synonymously associated with summer in Australia. Seafood on the barbecue during the warmer months is certainly a crowd favourite, but if you packed away your Weber barbecue last winter without winterising it, you have an afternoon of cleaning ahead before you can use it again over summer. Following these steps will take your barbecue from gross to gorgeous in just a few hours. Why Clean The Barbecue? While it is tempting to just empty the ashes and fire up the barbecue again without any cleaning, you are raising a risk of a fire flare-up When you look at the inside of the bottom bowl of your Weber, does it look like the paint is peeling away…
