Wesley place is a skilled nursing facility in Chicago. We received a brief description and history of the facility before speaking with a physical therapist from the facility. This location contracts its physical therapists through an outside company, as does many other skilled nursing facilities like Wesley Place. During our visit, we talked about many of the barriers present at Wesley Place as well as other skilled nursing facilities. A large barrier to care is the shortage of nursing and…

Can you imagine being stranded on an island alone only with a group of kids and no adults? What would you do if you were in that situation? Do you think you would stay calm and in control? Well, in The Lord of the Flies this is the reality of a group of boys, fighting for their lives and dealing with insanity. Their inner beast showed then and it was inevitable. What do you think? Do you think that there is a beast in all of us? Or do you think you could have kept yourself under control?…

I could’ve stopped, I should’ve stopped. WHY DIDN’T I STOP. Those kids murdered him, not me. I was just dancing and trying to scare them, I didn’t kill him. I did. I took his life, it felt like I was in a trance and I had no control of my own self. I keep having nightmares. Everytime I hear a tree limb crack, I think of the way my spear sounded when it ripped out of him and entered back in again, and again. When I close my eyes to sleep, the glare of the sun shining off of his salt water covered…

SOCIOLOGICAL: When considering the demographic for Ticketmaster, saying all eventgoers of all ages is too broad, even though it is for everyone. The focus demographic would be millennials between the ages of 18-34 that attend events/concerts a lot. On Billboards website, there is a that talks about how millennials have been reportedly going to a lot more concerts/events the past couple years. Ticketmaster did a study in 2014 for live event attendees and found that 35% of concertgoers where…

a personal fear, whether it’s make believe or real. In the book,The Lord of the Flies a group of boys was mistakenly dropped on an isolated island off of an airplane left with no source of authority at all. While they all battled through man versus self conflicts in the book, along came a thing in the that they all feared. They called it a beast. Just about all of the boys believed that this “beast” was a real “snake like” thing, but only one came to a realization of what it really was. This…

The goal of the egg drop project was to successfully create a structure that would protect an egg from a drop of three stories high. The problem resulted as an eggshell would not be strong to protect itself from a fall at this height. In this project we created a structure from common household materials, that will protect an egg from a drop at three stories high. Together, we worked hard to create a structure that is both lightweight, durable, and hopefully indestructible. To create…

Group 1 Elements Referring to the table created from observing the characteristics of the three elements from group 1, Lithium, Sodium, and Potassium, we can see that they all share the appearance of being lustrous and metallic, with a silvery-white presentation, and it is also known that they are all alkali metals. It is also noticed that they are all soft metals easily cut with a knife rather than most metals such as calcium or iron. All three elements are stored within oil, with Sodium as an…

Math is all around, weather you notice it or not. Doctors use math on the daily to prescribe medicine that patients might need, check vitals, and see how hurt a patient may be. Math is very important and is needed in order for doctors to do their job. First off, doctors use math everyday to prescribe medicine to patients. In “ Medicine and math” Natasha Glydon states “Doctors need to figure out how many milligrams of medicine each patient will need, depending on their weight.” Doctors must use…

Under the title of math there is so much that kindergarteners need to be exposed to within the school year, from number sense to addition and vocabulary and then geometry. This unit plan will introduce and explain one of the major geometry ideas that need to be taught in kindergarten. At this age students need to be exposed to the common 3D shapes and be able to identify the shapes and the characteristics of the shapes. Another important idea is to be able to explain what makes 2D shapes…

Is six hours enough for a workday? I do not believe six hours is enough for a standard work day. Think about it, most people can not even survive on their hours now. Shortening hours will lead to loss of wages, ineligible for health insurance and maternity leave. We are not one of the 188 states that mandate paid maternity leave. In the end no I do not believe six hours is enough to sustain a middle class living. The economy is not in the right place right now to be shortening work hours.…
