a perfect Royal Flush on the same day. Now let’s consider the odds of me writing this essay and you reading this. The odds of one of us even being born was roughly 1 and 10^2,685,000 according to some statisticians more knowledgeable than I. This number is unfathomable to us as humans, but I will do my best to quantify the miracle of this paper in a story:…

Good afternoon, I have been advised by Veronica from the Executive Office in Houston, Texas that I should send my request for the “Routing Number and Account Number” of the joint high school account in the names of Sean P. McDermott (son) and Robert D. McDermott (father) that Chase Bank closed through the online secure mail system on October 5, 2015.

Raise your hand if you know what is number bond?” I decided to ask a question in the foundation of the lesson because I knew students had already mastered the idea of number bond since Mrs. Harrington been teaching them number bonds the day I start observing the classroom.
