Essays again

It's the end of the semester and that means essays. Here are some of my favorite excerpts.

This assignment was to interview someone who represents the American dream and write an article about them and their struggles. The students had to use quotes from the person.

She also came to the United States to make a better life for her "children." She works hard so that her "children" could get a "good education." Because when she used to be little she did not "finished school" in "Mexico."

This is an assignment to research the presidential candidates and write an expository essay about why you would vote for that candidate.

1) These esay I am going to write is about the election for presidential. The essay is going to be about the presiden I am voteing and why I am going to vote for that person. Then after I tell the reason I voted for that person then I will be done with my essay.

2) Hillary if elected president, she will be prepared to handle problems like her husband did in the 90's. Hillary will be in the presidency as two figure heads, both her and her husband. And that is a good thing. I believe this because Hillary will be receiving good advice from her well experienced husband.

3) The dropout rate is going higher, and teachers leave after their 5 first years of teachings (some).


That doesn't mean all the essays had major problems. Some were relatively logical and well written. These are just the ones that made me slap myself on the head.

(On a side note, with grades due this week I've had no time for anything, so if you emailed me and I haven't responded it's not because I'm ignoring you. It's because I'm hip deep in essays like these.)
