This makes me think of Leonardo da Vinci. Imagine if HIS stuff was made!
NOTE: Please make sure to check the page for your specific class for schedules, videos, documents, etc. This makes me think of Leonardo da Vinci. Imagine if HIS stuff was made! He died on January 10th of 2014 , about 1 month after this video was posted. We should all remember to think of the things we can do in life and can change instead of focusing on the things we have no control over. For those of you working on a language, or two...

If you have read the book, take notes on which things are different from the book. Write down why you think they are different and if it changes the story. If you have never read the book, try and answer these stories (this assumes the play will touch on these topics):

I won't admit how many of these applied to me growing up. Remember, you don't want the wrong end of the stick (or the short end). Article courtesy of Breitbart. Virginia Tech head basketball coach Buzz Williams did not appreciate the behavior of his players while the national anthem played before their games, so he decided to fix it.
Williams elected to teach his guys a lesson after noticing they were swaying, not paying attention and being disrespectful by putting his players face-to-face with men and women who served this country in the armed forces. “We didn’t earn those chairs,” Williams said as he pointed to the team bench. “These guys, when they were you age, interrupted their life, they paused their education, they changed their career, and they gave their life for those chairs. So when the Anthem is played, we’re going to stand like grown men and we’re going to honor men like this, that gave their life, so we can have a chair to sit in.” The second year Hokies coach taught the players the words of the national anthem so they would be “respectful of the words.” After addressing his team and teaching them how to be respectful of the national anthem, Williams had his players stand alongside the emotional veterans as the anthem played. This is not the first time Williams has taught his players to respect the national anthem. In 2014, he posted a video of him teaching his squad the importance of the anthem along with this write-up: We put together this video with arguably one of the best live performances in the history of this song and added scenes that we all could emotionally connect with. Together we read it aloud over and over until everyone could recite it. Every time I hear this song I get choked up. I think to myself about how a country boy from a rural, American town in Texas gets paid to coach college basketball, and just how lucky I am. Every facet of my life has changed because of this game. Every game day when they play our national anthem, I stand up, I look up to the flag, put my hand over my heart and sing because to me, it is more than just lyrics.
