"How to" Do Laundry
Purpose Sentence The purpose of this speech is to inform my listeners on how to do laundry.

Introduction Forty-five percent of children don't learn how to do laundry until leaving for college. Most children feel that it's not a necessary tool they need to know until they are on their own. Having freshly cleaned pants and blouses each day in your closet seems normal to many kids, but before you know it, those wonderful days will in fact be over. After today, most of you will no longer have to complain about having dirty socks, or not enough clean sweaters. You will indeed become knowledgeable of the one thing most of us dread; laundry. Many of us are graduating and going off to college, and if you don't want your favorite new sweater shrunk on the first day of class, be sure to follow these short and easy steps.

Body I. Doing laundry is something that should be done step by step. When beginning to do laundry, separating the clothes is crucial. A. First, sort your dirty clothes, making separate piles for whites, bright colors and darks. -If you mix whites with colors in the wash, the colors may bleed onto and ruin your whites. B. Also, separate clothes that tend to produce lint (towels, sweatshirts, chenille and flannel) from clothes that tend to attract lint (corduroy, velvets and permanent-press clothes). - As you sort, close zippers to prevent snagging, and empty pockets. II. After sorting your clothes, beginning to work the washing machine is the next step. A. Pretreat heavy stains with laundry detergent or stain remover, heeding instructions on the product label. B. Use the measuring cap of the detergent bottle or the cup found in detergent boxes to measure out the right amount of laundry soap according to the manufacturer's

    Using the friction caused from rubbing clothing against rocks, and rinsing the clothes in a stream in order to clean them, no doubt became a tedious task in a short time. However, the technology did not exist to improve on this method. That is, not until the year of 1782, when the first washing machine was designed by a man named H. Sidgier from Great Britain. This machine consisted of a cage with wooden rods and a handle that was used for turning.…

    I walk into the restaurant Red Robin, wait for my name to be called by the host and sit down in a booth with comfortable red seats. All of a sudden a man sits next to me wearing an apron soaking with water, wiping sweat from his face. It's my brother, Zachary Walsh. Zach states “ Man, I hate Saturday nights, too damn busy!”. What was Zach doing? Zach is a dish machine operator, or in restaurant terms, a DMO. Washing dishes you say, that sounds easy! I am afraid not my friends. Washing dishes is one of the most under appreciated jobs. Just ask the manager him self, who by the way is my Uncle. My Uncle states, “ If it wasn't for the DMO this place would be a **** whole. DMO's work their *** off and their the ones who keep things running behind the scenes.” With only a thirty minute break from washing dishes, I thank my brother for taking this time to answer questions because I know he would much rather be doing other things. Things like enjoying his food, staying hydrated and getting his mind off washing dishes. My brother is a good guy and that's a good thing for Red Robin because the DMO's do the most work for the smallest pay.…

    Running Head: HANDWASHING Importance of Handwashing Family Health Nursing Thursday March 26, 2009 According to Havighurst’s developmental Task theory the children of Headstart are at the the Infancy and Early Childhood Stage: Learning to walk. Learning to take solid foods. Learning to talk. Learning to control the elimination of body wastes. Learning sex differences and sexual modesty. Acquiring concepts and language to describe social and physical reality. Readiness for reading. Learning to distinguish right from wrong and developing a conscience (David McKay, 1972). The children at Headstart are learning basic skills and are at the stage of molding to meet hygienic and educational needs. Between twelve to eighteen months, they learn how to speak by mimicking others and the educators teach the children the meanings of these sounds. The children learn how to use the toilet from when they feel the urge to go use the toilet (so they don’t wet themselves), wiping front to back and washing their hands after using the “potty”. They see how others act of the same gender and age; the girls play with dolls, while the boys play with toy trucks. Children at this age also learn from right and wrong, this is also learned from the tone of the adult’s voice. These children are at the futile stage of learning, where their brain is like a sponge and absorbs everything, which Headstart work with the parents to meeting the needs of each individual. Potential factors that are barriers are that some children have vision impairment. This may discourage the child from the poster board because they are unable to see as well as the other children. This can also lead to teasing and bullying for the child. Vision loss at an early stage of life is difficult for a child because it may influence on his hand-eye coordination in games (i.e. playing catch). Vision loss is screened at Headstart by a Polaroid screen by IRG Ross Institute. This…
