American Heroes by Iyan

America has had alot of heroes that have made it better over the years. There are many American heroes such as Paul Revere, Jonas Salk, and Cesar Chaves. These are some of the people who helped build America.

Paul Revere was an American hero. He was part of the Boston Tea Party. He warned other patriots of a British advance. After the war he became a silver smith. That is why Paul is an American hero.

Jonas Salk was an American hero. He made the first polio vaccine. He started the Salk Institue for Biological Studies. He tried to make a vaccine for cancer and AIDS. That is why Jonas is an American hero.

Cesar Chaves was an American hero. He started the UFW. He led a boycott against California grape owners. He improved working conditions for farm workers. That is why Cesar is an American hero.

These were some of the many people you helped build America. Some saved it. Others improved it. But all helped build it.

Very well organized!! You followed the assignment perfectly. Jonas Salk and Cesar Chaves are two of my favorite American heroes. I thought your concluding paragraph was excellent. I loved how you included a few short sentences after your long sentence.
