Hula hoop

Fifty years ago, when I was a boy of fifteen and helping to inhabit a Missourian village on the banks of the Mississippi, I had a friend whose society was very dear to me because I was forbidden by my mother to partake of it. He was a gay and impudent and satirical and delightful young black man--a slave--who daily preached sermons from the top of his master's woodpile, with me for sole audience. He imitated the pulpit style of the several clergymen of the village, and did it well, and with fine…

held their leg straight out and kicked the ball while others bent their legs. All- While the children played at the gym they placed with the hula hoops. The children took their hula hoop and roll it to the other side of the gym by using one hand to push the hula hoop. The children ran after the hula hoop seeing if they could catch it before the hula hoop stopped. Zakaraya- During group time Zakaraya was playing with another child on the carpet instead of listening to the teacher. I redirected…

to buy at least 51% of the stock, retaining control. Barnes is promoted from the mailroom to the president as he is seen to be a simpleton. He however uses his position to his own advantage and approves mass-production of his own invention- the Hula Hoop. While demand is low in the beginning, it gains popularity and profits soar, further raising stock value. The movie ends with a blue letter revealing that Hudsucker’s immediate successor, Barnes, would get his shares. This facilitates several…

I arrived on the site about 30 minutes early because I brought my hula hoops from my apartment. I remembered what Rhonda said the goal of the garden was; “To create a spot where people could meditate, talk and relax”, and I wanted to do just that. I hoop dance and when I hoop dance, I like to do it on either an open field or open parking lot. It gives me more room to be creative and productive. I also hoped by me hooping and doing a bunch of tricks that it would attract attention and people…

include Play-Doh, Silly Putty, Magic 8-balls, Frisbees, Slinkies, Pogo Sticks, Hula Hoops, toy trains, and dollhouses; all of which I played with as a kid are still popular in today's culture. Frisbees and hula hoops were hits in the 1950s when people started to do weird things. One person started swinging a hoop around their hips and a company called Wham-O made a huge profit after it sold over 25 million plastic hoops in less than 4 months. Frisbees began to get popular in the late 50s. Wham-O…

came to either sit and watch or to work outside and enjoy the music. People were singing along with the song. Some were even dancing. The hula-hoop troop (wow say that 5 times fast) was even out preforming to the music in order to show off the talents of their club. It was really cool and I had no idea that there were so many things that one could do with a hula-hoop.…

Readers look for a character that they can associate with, or imitate. When reading adolescent literature, knowing the gender of the characters in the story, gives readers assumptions about the characters themselves without even knowing their background. Even if the author decided not to formally establish or intentionally state the gender of their characters, the…

These questions really tied everything together and helped the students think about the important pieces of information so they would remember the next time they bowled. Repetition and question and answer were teaching techniques I witnessed Mr. Dunn use repeatedly throughout the day. Having students recall the information and piece it all together was an excellent way to finish up the class because they could carry the information with them throughout the day. It was interesting watching…
