Every year there has always been an increase of violence in schools mainly because of gangs and bullies. But for the last past five years these violent incidences have gotten so out of hand for some kids that they end up skipping school, they find any excuse not to go to school, or they end up committing suicide because they cannot deal with the day to day torture. Some forms of violence situations occur because of a child’s sexual orientation, race, a handicap, etc. School should be a place where everybody should feel safe and comfortable, kids should not have to come to school and watch over their shoulder to see if there’s someone coming after them.
My Review Post
The topic of the paragraph is School Violence and its impact on children. The paragraph should have included determinants that cause school violence. The paragraph that interested me the most was “Some forms of violence situations occur because of a child’s sexual orientation, race, a handicap, etc.” The point of author changes as he takes the stance that school should be made a safer place for children. The paragraph becomes effective in its continuum when the author provides detail of the impact of school violence. The paragraph by Jermaine is very effective in my opinion.

Attacks by youth in the community are becoming increasingly brutal and frankly, bold. News articles are filled with violent attacks by and against today’s youth. A Chicago student, Derrion Albert, who was brutally beaten to death on film and A New York student, Kevin Miller, who was fatally shot in the head; were both murdered by peers on the way home from school. These are only two very tragic examples of youth violence in the U.S. A total of 34 Chicago public school students were killed during the 2008 school year, according to news reports (Hoffman 2009).
My Review Post
The topic of the paragraph written by Shaqual is Student or Youth Violence. The paragraph is very easy to understand as the author has enriched the paragraph with a lot of details from the news articles which makes the paragraph easy to understand. The enhanced and quality paragraph of the written piece is “. A total of 34 Chicago public school students were killed during the 2008 school year, according to news reports (Hoffman 2009).” I believe that the effectiveness of the paragraph continuum can be noted when the author writes “These are only two very tragic examples of youth violence in the U.S.”. Overall, the essay was very effective in my opinion.

In 1965, April 11
President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the first country’s general aid program for education known as the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). President Johnson who was a former teacher witness the impact of poverty on his former students so he passed the bill as a part of his “War on Poverty”. Students have 12 years to complete school to graduate, there are some students as it and was is known to President Lyndon B. Johnson who witness first hand that slip through the cracks of the learning system due to some children needing a little help in order for children to succeed as opposite to being left behind.
My Review Post
The topic of the paragraph is President Lyndon B. Johnson’s Role in Student Affairs. The author must have added the description regarding the reasons that student needed his help. The paragraph seems very direct and without a background. There was very little content that interested me the most about the overall information. The voice of the author as noted in the paragraph is understandable when he writes that Lyndon B. Johnson helped clearing weaknesses of the learning system. The effective continuum that I noted in the paragraph was “Students have 12 years to complete school to graduate, there are some students as it and was…..” my opinion about the overall written activity by Sallence is satisfactory.

A finely crafted guest list is one that consists of all the people you love. You want to be surrounded by the people who show you the most love and support. It might be a good idea to invite all whose weddings you attended and people who are infamous for giving the best gifts even if you can only tolerate them. Besides, it is the polite thing to do after all. Some people go as far as to do seating charts. If you decide that is what you like, make sure you separate the herbivores from the carnivores.
My Review Post
The topic of the paragraph is Significance of a Guest list. The paragraph written by Mallorie is very interesting as she has described the significance in an explanatory manner by stressing on the categories of the guests. The most effective line of the paragraph is when the writer writes “Besides, it is the polite thing to do after all. Some people go as far as to do seating charts.” The effective continuum can be noted when she writers that it is a good idea to avoid those guests who cannot be tolerated. I would consider the paragraph very effective as the paragraph is very clear and interesting.
