Popcorn

was planning what to do for Snack Shack. When we figured out our partners, I talked to Aleah about doing Root Beer Floats and Popcorn. During the Snack Shack lottery, both of those things were taken before our number was called. We ended up with lemonade and soft pretzels. I wasn’t that happy about it because I had already started to plan for Root Beer Floats and Popcorn. So, I started over and started to count the costs. It took about an hour to get a general list of all that we needed to get,…

Oscar and I get different amounts of freedom, depending on the situation. I get more freedom than Oscar when it comes to picking what music I like, or choosing whatever I want to eat. Oscar has to eat certain foods, one thing he can’t have is popcorn. “Popcorn could kill you: greasy, salty, and let’s not think about the choking hazard.” (Bachorz, 97). This quotes is important because it states a kind of food Oscar cannot have. But, Oscar gets more freedom when he goes out of the house. He can…

Traditional popcorn reading. I discourage the use of traditional reading aloud because it those with anxiety to focus less on the passage and more about worrying about when they will be called on. Ask for volunteers. Let them “pass” without consequences. Ask students…

Equally important for the colonists to survive was to learn how to use available resources and ingredients. The first colonists relied on the supplies they brought. The colonists brought plants and seeds from England, but they had a hard time getting them to grow. The Native Americans came to the colonist rescue. If not for the American Indians showing the colonist native plants and how to cook them along with planting and harvesting them, the colonist would have all died. The colonists came…

did with people at a theater. Basically what they did was give one-half of the people a small container of popcorn, and the other half one of the bigger ones. They made sure to tell everyone that they could have as much popcorn as they wanted, and sure enough the people with the big container of popcorn ended up eating more because they could not stop themselves from eating because the popcorn was right in front of them. The people with the small container were able to stop eating when they felt…

mingling with the present. Incoherent chatter and loud, shrieking giggles fill the swamped snack bar of the movie theater. As I stand near the end of the line, waiting for a chance to waste money, a large family passes by me with a huge bag of popcorn. The strong scent of butter with a hint of salt reaches my nose, my mouth watering with anticipation. After what seems like forever, I reach the beginning of…

out of my seat and run over to the dugout to speak the coach. Coach “number 8 is the girl that hits deep to right field but, swings at high pitches”. The coach sends the signal to the pitcher “Strike two” yells the umpire. By this time the aroma of popcorn, nachos, hot dogs and peanuts has taken over the stands. My focus gets intense as the crowd cheers for the winning team. I start to plan each…

instantly felt everyone’s eyes on me. Usually I don’t mind being the center of attention, but at that time I wanted to curl into a ball and become invisible. The home plate and I are usually on good terms, but I guess I made it mad that day. Grab your popcorn because I’m about to tell you the story of how I ruined my chances to become an infamous freshman falcon cheerleader. I had played softball for four years and had never attempted to slide. I wasn’t afraid of sliding; I just never found…

At Junction Hill, their attendance rates are above Missouri’s average. Since 2012 to 2015, attendance rates have stayed pretty level at 95 percent. Since 2002, Junction Hill has met all of the requirements in mathematics and reading until 2010. Looking at individual scores, it shows the students exceeded past expectations and received two plus points over what was needed. In 2000 to 2009, children in poverty went from 26.3 percent to 27.6. The adult unemployment rate went up as well. It started…

especially Ethan. Upon entering, Ethan was stunned by all the lights that shined brighter than a glass case full of diamond rings, but he will get used to it quickly. The air around him is bursting with the lip-smacking, sweet scent of cotton candy, popcorn, and ice-cream. It’s hard for him to resist the urge to get himself some. His first stop is the popular Minion Mayhem, a simulator ride…
