remember having my hair in three ponytails with pink knockers, jumbo twist, and a tiny clip at the end. I was drinking strawberry milk, at a wooden table that had a vase filled with sunflowers in the middle of it. I watched my grandmother read the Savannah Morning Newspaper with coffee stains on the front page. The stains came from putting her coffee mug on top of the paper to get up and stir the cheese grits that were on the stove. I always used to ask, “Grandma, can I have the funny page?”…

Charles Cornwallis also helped General Sir Henry Clinton direct the British soldiers. In May of 1780, the Patriots surrendered in…

To me students who really grasped this consent and implemented it into their monologues were Matt, Hailey, Savannah, Christina, Brooke, Giana, and Jennifer. I think that objectives were projected well in these monologues because I could tell exactly how these students felt about the situation that they were sharing with us and projected that emotion onto the…

General William Tecumseh is a name that resonates with many different types of people for a variety of reasons. His Soldiers referred to him as “Uncle Billy”, because they loved, respected, and admired their Commander. The Northerners credit General William Sherman as the man that ended the Civil War and restored the Union. While the people of the South have an opposite and repugnant memory of the man, they blame for “scorching” the South. Despite personal opinions of General William Sherman,…

Flannery O’Conner resided in Milledgeville, Georgia from 1938 to 1964. Since her death, the city of Milledgeville has, like most cities, changed and adapted to fit with its worldly surroundings. Some of O’Conner’s most famous works bring forth an insight into what religion was like in Milledgeville during her time there. Her use of what readers assume to be true stories, allows the reader to experience the older culture of Milledgeville. A more recent writer, Alice Walker, also lived in the…

factor in bipedalism. C. Owen Lovejoy (1981), would take it a step further and introduce it as “male provisioning”, Lovejoy theorized that the evolution of upright walking was based on monogomy. He believed that bipedalism developed in the African savannah and with the East African region drying up fruit trees and sources of food were growing further apart. Meaning hominids would have to travel further to obtain food leaving a mother caring for her young at a disadvantage. This in Lovejoy's…

conversation between a detective with Julie’s parents were presented. True crimes stories leave out pieces of evidence to make the story more dramatic. For example, in my story “The Unstable Tree,” I didn’t mention every detail of the lives of Luis and Savannah to keep the conflict interesting. Sharing the most intriguing parts of the story leaves the reader interested and eager to learn more. Educating the audience and entertaining them by intensifying short stories are the purposes of true…

Green space is part of a development in establishing grass, trees and vegetation in a community. Green spaces contain natural elements that could be placed and designed in an urban expansion. The establishment of parks and green landscapes restore an individual’s mental and physical health. In addition, the price of homes increase because of the eye-catching views that green space has to offer. The trees and vegetation efficiently create shades that will reduce the heat island effect, and can…

The arrival of various Creek and other Muscogee people to Florida in the mid-1700s signaled the genesis of what would eventually be recognized as the Seminole tribe of Florida. These Indians settled in parts of Florida where the original, albeit much less in numbers, inhabitants of Florida still resided. Many of the Florida Indians by the time of the British arrival were trading for decades with the Spanish and its colonies to the immediate south. The Creek nation was a loose confederation of…
