JERRY CRAFT
I could not find out Jerry Craft brith date but this is what I found after receiving a B.F.A. degree from the School Of Visual Arts in New York City, Jerry Craft worked on several comic books. For instance, he worked on Barbara Slate's Sweet 16 for Marvel Comics and New Kids On The Block for Harvey Comics. Mr. Craft's comic strips have appeared in Ebony magazine, Jewish Week, King Features' Laff-A-Day panel, The New York Daily News, and The Village Voice.
In 1995, his comic strip, Mama's Boyz, was picked up by the King Features Weekly Service - a collection of cartoons and columns that are distributed to over 1,500 newspapers and magazines around the world; also, Mama's Boyz comic strip runs regularly in supplements of the New York Daily News for special occasions such as Black History Month and Kwanzaa. The Mama's Boyz characters are the national spokes characters for the American Diabetes Association; moreover, Jerry Craft was presented with the American Diabetes Association's Outstanding Supporter Award for his work during National Diabetes month.
I picked Jerry Craft for this project because I read his comics everyday and I enjoy them. This is why I picked him

what grade i should get
In english class the teacher said that I am burning the rope with my grade. So in his words he is telling me that im close to failing his class. But i disagree and in this paper i will prove to you should no need to get a (b).
First i should get a (b) because i turned in every thing on time. yes i have one paper missing, but that is no reason why i should fail. Next everything the teacher asked me to do i did, for example when he asked me to move to another table to help out another student that was in need of help, without giving him a hard time. Also i've worked with people that he ask me to work with, so they could get a good grade in the topic that we were working on. Know the things i done for the teacher not wanting to and turning in everything on time, but one paper you think you should fail me thats crazy. I might get out of hand sometimes but son as you ask me to get back to work i do. SO THEREFORE I SHOULD GET AT LEAST A (B) IN ENGLISH CLASS. KNOW WHAT DO YOU THINK I SHOULD GET.

SHOULD HUCK FINN BE CAUGHT IN SCHOOL

SHOULD HUCK FINN BE CAUGHT IN SCHOOL
Should Huck Finn be taught in CHS? I think it should and should not be taught in CHS. In my paper I will explain my reasons.
First it should be taught in CHS because it talks about history. For examples it talks about slavery, hard times, and the struggle of the African American people of what they went though.
Next it should not be taught be taught in CHS because it talks about religion, it also has bad grammar. In public school we are not supposed to talk about religion and in the book it say “you going to go to the bad place and I am going to the good place.” Also the grammar is the worst. In the story they use the wrong words, symbols, and give off the wrong impression.
Last it uses bad words. When reading the book the kids are going to use the words in school and will get in trouble. An when the teachers ask where they got the word from, they are going to say the book Huck Finn. Then what are they going to do?
In conclusion the story Huck Finn should and should not be read in CHS. I hope this paper helped you out on your choice on the story Huck Finn

HITTING YOUR KIDS GOOGD OR BAD

HITTING YOUR KIDS
Should parents be allowed to hit their children? If so how far? In my opinion yes but only to a certain limit. I say yes because it teaches them right from wrong, and respect. There also is a limit to hitting their kids.
First it teaches you right from wrong. In my life time when I did something wrong it got hit and learned to not do it again. I learned from my mistakes. All my mistakes help me today because I never made the same mistake twice. When you do not teach your kids right from wrong they keep doing wrong. This is one of the reasons why the crime rate is so high this year. Parents did not teach their kids write from wrong at a young age.
Next it teaches respect. Respect is a big part in school and life. If you do not teach your kids respect, they act up in school, and you can not control your kids anymore. But if you teach your kids respect and when they do not display it you should beat them so you can show them you are not playing around with them.
Last parents do take hitting their kids to far. For example in the story “Huck Finn” his father kicked him, and left marks on his body, and etc. this is a example of taking it to far when it comes to hitting your kids.
In conclusion hitting your child is not all way a bad thing if you do not take it to far, as you can see in this paper.
