I chose this book by looking for some of my main interests, in this case softball. It grabbed my interest because of the front page picture of a man sliding into a base.
Reading a informational book I chose and reading a newsela article are similar because they are both topics that I am interested in and both obviously provide information. Its different because one is a book and once is a article and their both about different things.
I predict the central idea of my book is the history and necessities for baseball.
My book uses description as its text structure.

I chose this book by looking at what  kind of books I like and the reason I chose this book is because I like history and learning about it.
Reading a informational article and reading a informational book is similar because I read what I like to read about and they both give you information about the past or whatever you are reading. It's different because in a informational article they don't give enough a lot of information they give you less and in a informational book they give you a lot more of information.
I predict the central idea of my book is how the people are telling there stories and adventurers of coming to America.
My book uses text structure.

Central Idea: The central idea of this text is that more white people believe that racism is a big problem in America and that it getting bad now then before and white people want to make it stop.
SMALLER MAIN IDEA
The researchers found that most Americans think more should be done to to end racism.
When whites see black people being treated unfairly they understand what it's like to be afraid.
Fewer people believe that

The central idea is that people are still concerned that racism is still in play. Also people are taking polls on how they feel about the relationship with whites, blacks, and Hispanics. Some of the smaller main ideas are black people taking stand in their race and people taking polls on how they currently feel about the racism. I got these from knowing the central idea.

Larger Central Idea: Police are being harsh on black people and white polices arresting some  black people for no reason and they are treating them unfairly.
Smaller main idea's: Polices are arresting blacks for no reason. Blacks are having to fight for there rights when they shouldn't have to.
There have been a dozen cases of where blacks are being arrested for no reason.
Evidence: Many black people where arrested so they would pay fines to the city government but many of them where poor. There was a 32 year old black man was sitting in his car after playing basketball and a police officer stopped him because his windows where to dark. There was a investigation and found seven racist emails written by police and court workers from 2008 to 2011.
I think I am doing a great job with picking out central idea.

The larger central idea of this article is that blacks are being treated very wrong and racism is still a big problem in United States.
3 Smaller Main Ideas: Black people having to protest for their rights,
white police officers are doing unnecessary things to black people like shooting them, and city leaders really need to get this topic under control.
Evidence: In a video recently taken at a protest  a police officer said "Everyone is going to jail" and then proceeded to brutally attack the person recording. A teen was sitting in his car and the officer stopped him for his "windows being to black" and then asked to search his car with no warrant. Not only are blacks being physically attacked they are getting verbally attacked with racist emails.
I think that I am doing a great job with picking out central/main idea.

Larger central idea: The bigger central idea for this article is that football players are sitting and not participating in national anthem and fans are angry that they are doing that.
Evidence: Football play Colin Kaepernick took a stand by refusing to stand as the national anthem played. Angry fans burned their Kaepernick jersey because he did this.
Ian O'Connor pointed out that Kaepernick did not break no team or league rule by doing what he did.
Kaepernick  told NFL Media's Steve Wyche that he is not gonna stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color.

The larger central idea of the story is that important football players are  sitting down during the national anthem and fans are becoming infuriated.
Collin Kapernick, the quarterback for the 49ers sat during the national anthem because he believes black people are oppressed. Fans are doing things like burning jerseys and making tweets about what he did. Some people are supporting this because it is not a requirement to stand during the national anthem.
The coach for the 49ers supported his decision to stand because he has the right. Ian O'Connor sees no problem in him doing this because its not a rule. He says that he will not stand for a country that oppresses people of color.
