The following is a oral report given by a student without H.O.E.
George Washington became our 1st president in 1789. He was chosen because of the leadership as a General during the Revolutionary War. Following America's victory, Washington was an instrumental in lobbying for ratification of the constitution .
Now hear the same student after H.O.E.
George was da head G, you know what I'm sayin? Da head chump from Englan' be frontin', so Wash goes, "uh-uh homey, I got mad skillz!" So da king goes "You aint grabbin' my hood foo! So Wash goes "You know where I be". So da king sendz his boyz over for a sail-by , but boom! Wash wastes their sorry butts. In conlusion, Georgie was da bomb!
