LeBRON vs KD

The Heat were up 18-2 at one point in the game but then KD started to turn on the 3s jump shots and even points in the paint. But on LeBRONs side of the court he was doing not so well. LeBRON is well known as the "The King, The King Of Basketball." But "KD" his court name is also known as his real name Kevin Durant. Both of them makes shoes and both of them are great players but it happens to be that KD is the best player and shooter in the NBA.

NBA Game


LeBron James and Kevin Durant are fearsome opponents but they have much respect for each other. Lebron and Kevin Durant each have their nicknames as LeBron as the King and Kevin Durant as KD.
Both of them had very high shooting percentages but as year-by-year LeBron shooting percentages have gone up. Of course Kevin Durant has a high shooting percentage I think maybe LeBron has a higher shooting only a couple points.

Delaying The Heisman Vote


Currently the Heisman voting is held before the bowls, after the conference championship game. Some people disagree. They would like for the Heisman voters to wait until after the BCS championship game. But some people say that they like it the way that it is .They say that it is possible that voters focused too much on the bowls and not enough on their entire season. I think that they should change it wait till the BCS national championship. If somebody  has 100 yards receiving and 15 dropped passes that would be called a poor performance also it would not be good for the Heisman winner also it would not make the Heisman voters look good if this was the Heisman winner.

This is what  I wrote at home today and edited my story/argument of year round schools


  After school activities may experience conflicts with longer school days. They may also experience budgeting issues with extended schooling sessions into the year.

Students and teachers would have impersonal relationships due to different schedules for both groups.

Many people argue that students get bored during summer vacations, when there is much less activity and stimulation, so attending school for a year would be a benefit to them.

And last of all they are a great because it increases student achievement by 60%

Argument Essay

 Year-round schooling is a good idea Because it increases academic achievement it also has been present from the 1800s. YRS first appeared in urban areas, because they were not tied to the agriculture cycle. In 1973, states that provided year-round schooling options were: Washington, Nevada, California, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida, Vermont, New Kentucky, and Missouri. Businesses also find it easier to provide jobs on a year round basis instead of having many in the summer for students. Students who attend year-round school say that calendar is more balanced than their peers who have a typical school calendar.

Effect on Students   

Students who attend year-round schools typically do as well as or slightly better in school than their peers who attend a traditionally scheduled school. These breaks can be used for remedial courses, tutoring, and enrichment, if needed.

Students who attend year-round schools typically do as well as or slightly better in school than their peers who attend a traditionally scheduled school. These breaks can be used for remedial courses, tutoring, and enrichment, if needed.

A study conducted by the Ohio State University found that, over the course of a full year, students showed no significant improvement in reading and math scores in year-round schools compared to those students whose were in schools that followed the traditional academic calendar. Year-round schools do not add more school days to the 180 standard academic calendar. The total number of school days and vacation days remains unchanged, but instead is distributed throughout the year. Thus, students are not gaining more 

instructional days. Some teachers also favor Year-Round School, because they can have flexible contracts, as in different vacation times. These costs may add up and in turn interfere with budgets for other programs that are already struggling with funding such as the arts.

Year round schools are also a good idea because you never have to stop working on a project in that grade!

Effect on Students    

There is research that suggests year-round schools have positive effects on students who are at risk for academic problems, including those from underprivileged backgrounds and those who are poor performers in school.
