Spanish in 1st grade

Why is Spanish not taught in all school at younger ages? Wouldn’t it help embrace this counties most diversity? Couldn’t it make it easier for Americans to learn it at a younger age rather than an older one?

The other weekend I went home for the weekend to visit my family, while sitting on the sofa my little brother came up and told me he was taking Spanish this year. Due to him only being five I was not paying him any attention until my dad confirmed that he was actually not playing. As I sat there I was thinking about how much of a good idea it would be to teach Spanish to kids at such a young age. I also was wondering why it wasn’t being taught at all schools instead of just that one. If it was it would be way easier to learn because being only five you would not have as much background on the English Language. Most would think that speaking Spanish is not that important even though it will be in the future due to the growing influence on the Hispanic culture. Speaking Spanish would also enable the ability of all kids being able to be proficient in Spanish and English creating less separation between the American cultures and the Hispanic cultures. Being able to speak this language would not only help just give directions or help give information, but it would make regular life easier for the immigrated Hispanic citizens to have as much equal opportunities as those Americans who already speak English and are proficient. Learning the Spanish language at a young age would also make learning the structure of both languages much easier through comparing them and contrasting. As the country grows it gets more diverse and the ability for all Americans to change and be diverse along with the country would separate our great country even more from other countries on the globe. Conquering the challenge of having two languages under your belt will be a great accomplishment and would give the skill of being to help other fellow Americans in everyday life. So I would encourage all schools to join the movement to push the diversity of America in a positive direction.

Sodas

Why sodas are bad for the human body. Some would respond what is not good for the body, seeing that people are suing Oreos, and McDonalds. Not many people may know this but sodas are very bad for their health. They literally take minutes and even years off the lives of humans every day. Just read the ingredients and look them up and see what they are also in. if you are out of cleaning supplies just use coke. They have many affects due to the ingredients they contain. Some like taking the teeth out of your mouth due to the mix of sugar and acids takes off the enamel and weakens your teeth. It also causes kidney stones which result in your urine burning. Kidney stones are created by the changing of your urine due to the things inside the sodas. The stones are literally stones and can be the size of golf balls. Also you would wither want to lay off the sodas or the cookies because with both you are definite for diabetes. Sodas have more sugars in them than cookies and cause diabetes faster. Other serious health problems are caused by the high acid levels cause heart burn which can lead to other heart defects. Also sodas raise your blood pressure which is also very bad for your heart. More random facts are that you could possibly go to jail in some countries because sodas contain a type of vegetable oil that is illegal in 100 countries. A more common fact is that sodas are one of the more fattening drinks that Americans consume daily. The fat comes from the carbonated water building gas inside the body and the amount of calories in each soda. Even though sodas are not the worst drink for the body they come close and don’t have really any health benefits besides the relaxing feeling of a fart that has been held in all day due to you being around your new girlfriend. So the next time u get thirsty you should consider juice over a soda just to give you a few more moments of life.

Studying

What is studying and why is studying so important? What exactly does studying do for our brains. What are effective ways of studying? My interpretation of studying is reinitializing information enough to were your brain has the capability to spit it back out. It is important to study not only to pass test and classes but in life when you have a big job presentation or need to remember information. Most think studying works the brain to hard or just tires the brain out which is not the case at all. Studying is good for the brain because it makes it work, which can be compared to making your body work during exercise. Most people think that studying only helps memorize things for short amounts of time. While actually for those who use the right study tactics it helps you to memorize things for long periods of time if not forever. As for me studying was not very important in high school because the information was simple. In college however you interpret things in more detail and you are required to memorize large amounts of information. Effective ways of studying would be different due to the many different ways people learn. People who learn by seeing better than listening might do things like making flash cards or making study tools to help their brain. While those who learn better from listening rather than seeing would repeat the information over and over or just watch some videos. Also working in concentrated study groups can be helpful because you get different ways from others on how to understand a certain topic or even just ask questions of the things you don’t know. One of the biggest problems with study groups would be that most of the people you study with would be friends which can end in some if not all losing concentration. Studying is a way of life for some and it is a huge waste of time for others in a class setting you have some that believe that studying makes them do worse while others believe in studying like it’s in the bible.

Bus Ride

How do you feel when you are on the bus surrounded by all these other strangers? Riding the bus could always be an adventure. When you step foot on it you will always see someone new. However the buses at Georgia State University will not have as many different genres of different people as a public transit bus. As you sit down you could be next to a billionaire on one side and a homeless person on the other. To some this can be overwhelming or even scary. You never know what could happen for example the homeless man could pee on you and the billionaire could sue you for sneezing on him. Riding the bus is Magical due to anything being able to happen. The experience is not like anything else in that each bus ride is not like another. Riding a bus in New York is most defiantly different than riding the bus in Georgia. An example would be that the billionaire in New York may shoot you while the homeless man helps you up. Then in Georgia the homeless man would shoot you while the billionaire wouldn’t want to get his new suit dirty. One of the most amazing parts of riding the bus is the different sounds in the front you see the Spanish or Asian people talking while in the middle is the white people looking obviously out of the corner of their eye at the black people while the bus driver farts in the ac vent. Some might say some of my examples are not plausible but not only can these things happen they have happened. However they are not as recent as a man in a suit spilling his coffee or an old man staring at your mom’s butt. The experience on the bus can happen to anyone at any time that’s what makes it such an adventure or even a nightmare for some. Most of the time if you have no other choice you would choose the bus over walking. Not because your lazy but imagine what kind of adventures you would experience while walking.

World without technology

Could you live in a world without technology? Before you answer consider the following statements about living in a world without technology. One of the first types of technology was electricity, without it we would still have lanterns or candles to light the night or our homes. Dating even more into the birth of technology we would see the first toilets being made. Before the toilets the human race was forced to releasing their bodies waste into holes in the ground outhouses. Imagine having to adventure into the darkness at two in the morning to use the bathroom in the outhouse. In today’s society in might not have been so bad due to the street lights or lights from other sources. However these people, our ancestors would be traveling in complete darkness in the rural areas filled with horrifying animals. This is all part of what today would probably look similar to if we still lived in a world without technology. Another scenario would be in taking days weeks or months to travel to the annual family reunion due to their being no sort of motorized vehicles. Flying was not possible and neither was driving all travel was by foot or horse. It taking five minutes to go to grandma’s house up the street would now take twenty or thirty minutes. What else would we be missing, we would not be able to communicate as quickly as today due to their being no computers, cell phones, or not even house phones. The only way to communicate was through mail which due to no motorized vehicles would take forever. A timeframe would be it might take three to four months just to see how life has been for your college roommate. Also there was no google so when you would be sitting around thinking about where babies came from you would have to make the awkward attempt to ask YOUR PARENTS. Something that is even worse would be the fact that there would be no television so you would have to do the most dreadful thing in reading a book. So how would you feel about living in a world without technology?

Rhetorical Analysis on Americans in Suits

What do you associate a man in a suit into being. While walking along the street most Americans would rather be walking next to a man in a suit than a man in rags. The suit has long had a symbiotic effect dating back to the earlier days of Western America. It took on the look of a wealthy man because most of the people who wore this attire were the elite of America. People like the politicians and top businessmen. These men early engraved what the look of class would be. So if any American was to be wondering down the street and a man walking along beside that American had on a suit that American would not speed up their steps as they might would while walking alongside a man wear rags because the suit releases a since of trust. In the country with many businesses a man with a suit creates feelings of inspiration by the sleek attire of businessmen and also an insurance of safety in that close to any American would be almost one hundred percent sure the businessman would not have the intention of robbing someone at least not while wear a suit. The reputation of the suit is one of a man who is either wealthy or one who is classy. The way the individual accessorizes their suit earns respect to that particular person. Like having it cleanly ironed with an almost identical matching bow tie color shows the work put in to ensure his suit fit perfectly. A citizen roaming the heated Atlanta streets with a suit gives the appeal of someone who has a specific duty ahead which would inspire many Americans or present the feeling of that one person being approachable because they would look the part of someone who is trustworthy due mostly to what that person is wearing. The suit of that American walking the street would be convincing his audience of their duty of being of business or having business to handle through the neat attire and clean appeal of the American roaming the streets in a suit.
