“First Persuasive Paragraph.”
Students should be able to play sports if they have low grades. Grades should not have anything to to with a students ability to participate in extracuricular activities such as sports. The reason for that being is that their are alot of benefits associated with students who play sports. Some students are just not mentally able to meet the academic requirements to be able to play sports. If a student participates in sports it can help teach them alot of valuable life lessons such as perseverance and the knowledge of how to live a healthy life. The bottom line is that grades can get in the way of a great opportunity for a student to be a part of something greater than themselves.

“Catch the Moon” Grief Paragraph
I believe that the change Luis had expressed as a resullt of his grief he feels as a result of his mothers death is unbelivible. Thats because Luis is a juevinile delinquent who will most likely change his attitude periodically. Also the only reason that Luis did that for Naomi is because he was infatuated with her.

“’The Bass, the River, and Shelia Mant’ Airhead Stereotype.”
The character known as Sheila Mant in ’The Bass, the River, and Shelia Mant’ can be characterized as a beautiful airhead. The reason for that stereotype is that she is unaware of what is really going on in different situations. An example for that is when the boy she was with let the biggest bass he had ever seen get away for Sheila and she ended up leaving the party in Eric Caswells Corvette. Another instance is when Sheila says to the main character that he is a funny kid after all that he did for her.
