highly required to move above the usual requirements that have been set. Teachers must manage and not discipline their classrooms to gain results. For an example when “ training students to know what they are expected to do, have students doing their work constantly will lead to having a classroom with little confusion as possible.” When the classroom is set and is constantly being adjusted to the students there are less management to worry about and more expectations to…

Flying Sword In this essay I have chosen to compare the Cid Ruy Diaz de Vivar with Superman, a fictional character, a comic book superhero and famous movies. The legend of El Cid sits in the era of the Middle Ages around the twelfth century, when society was divided into fiefs or kingdoms preceded by a King, who dominated a given territory and engaged in the defense and protection of its people. The subjects, in turn, pay taxes to contribute to the King in such objectives. El Cid was not a…

A society in which everyone is willing to contribute without complaining or expecting a favour in return. A society in which no one is considered a scapegoat and people begin to accept and fix their mistakes. Sadly, this is not the society that any of us live in today, and these goals are not attainable.

A low groan dragged Luke out of his thoughts, bringing him back to the nearly deserted halls of Home One. He adjusted his arm, pulling Leia's slumping form closer to him. She usually didn't drink, but the fall of an unjust government was enough to get her slamming back shots of Corellian…

Now, when I say anger, this is only because there are no appropriate words to explain to you the deep loathing I felt for some of the characters and the lengths they were willing to go to get what they wanted. Every day after reading, I could always leave class content, knowing that this is just an exaggerated story. Except you look back and these things…
