Sideway stories by wayside school was, to me, unexpectedly good. Usually I do not like stories made for children but this felt different, I have also never read the original story as it never really made it to Europe. I think most of it is because of three aspects. The acting, the way the play was adapted from the books and the stage production. The first aspect I want to talk about is the acting. The casting was perfect and the overall acting ability of the cast was good. There was however on…

part of your brain. Kids that write by hand make more words than typing and they show more ideas. Handwriting helps in adulthood and even can change your life. Some things that surprised me in the article were, “Those lessons are falling by the wayside as states adopt Common Core standards, which only require manuscript handwriting instruction until the first grade and cursive instruction is not mandated at all” (Grinberg 1). I thought that by the way our school uses Common Core, we have equal…

At the dawn of morning, there is a "dimpled spider, fat and white, on a white heal-all holding up a moth." The moth is holding onto this white flower called the heal-all trying to escape the spider but death is surely to come.
