George Washington was the only
president in United States history to have been unanimously elected. He was elected to the presidency twice. His presidency founded the United
States Navy. He established the nation’s
official money. George Washington
created the Supreme Court.
Tutankhamun was only eight or
nine when he became ruler of Egypt. Tutankhamun died when he was only
18. King Tut is well known because his tomb had everything in it when it was found. Along with a golden burial
mask, King Tut's sandals were also found in the tomb. These had paintings of
his enemies on the soles - so everywhere the king went, he trampled all over
his foes!
After reading the information about George Washington and King Tut and using what you already know, write an opinion paragraph about the following prompt. Which leader had the greatest impact on history, George Washington or King Tut?

George Washington is better because he is the only one who has been voted by all of the people who voted.This is why George Washington is better than King Tut. Seth

DeleteKing Tut ...because he ruler when he was eight or nine.
ReplyDeleteKing Tut painted enemies on his shoes ever where he went he trampled them. by kalvin
George Washington and King Tut were both awesome leaders but I think George was had a bigger impact on history. I think that because he created the Supreme Court. If the that court was not made, that would not be good. Another reason is that he established the nation's official money. That is why I think that George Washington had made a bigger impact on history.Dean
ReplyDeleteDean - What a terrific paragraph. I am enjoying the growth that I see in you as a writer. Let's work on really making the reasons well supported! Good work. Mrs. Belinda
DeleteI think that George washington had a better impact on history because he is our own country's father. the reoson why i think that king
ReplyDeleteTut did not have the better impact on history is because King tut died when he was only 9. And that means that he only got to bethe ruler of egypt for 9 years. And it olso said that his belongings were in there with him when he died to. If i were king Tut i would be verry
creepy. and i would realy not like it if i only got to be a ruler for 9 years.
I forgot my name
DeleteYou still did not give your name. King Tut died at around 19 years of age. He began to reign at age 9. You had a good opening but then the paragraph began to fall apart. Mrs. Belinda
DeleteGorge Washington because he had been picked twice.Gorge Washington was the only preident in United States history to have been unanimouly elected.Jakiyah
ReplyDeleteGorge Washington b/c he did not torture inemys.
ReplyDeleteI pick King Tut because I think that he was sick when he died and that he had a lot of money by working at his house. I think that he worked for his parents at his house. Daniel
ReplyDeleteIn my opion I think that George Washington , had a greater impact . I think that because he was eleced 2 times ,that ment he was a very good president. Here are some resons why. George Washington was elected 2 times ,he created the Surprem Cort .,if he did not America would be crime filled George's presideny Founed Uinted States Navy .That is why I think George Washington had a greater impact.

DeleteBrooks- Next time you need to work on a strong conclusion. By Dominick
DeleteI am going to be talking about who had the greatest impact on histoy . George Washington: My opinon is that George Washington had the greatest impact on history because he was the only president in the United States history. 2.He was elected to the presidenty twice.3. He founded the United States Navy. 4. He established nation's money.5. and last but not least, George Washington created Supreme court. King Tut : My best opinon is that King Tut was only 8 or 9 when he became ruler of Egypt.2. When he died he was only 18 .3.He became well known because his tomb had everything in it when it was found along with a golden burtial mask.King Tut's sandals were also found in the tomb. 3. He had paintings of his enemies on the tomb of his shoes so when he steped down, he trampeled over his foes! If we did not have George Washington, This town would be sad. La'Tariyahna
ReplyDeleteLa'Tariyahna - You can tell that you really read the passages provided. Very good. You state your opinion and then give reasoning. Your conclusion would be rock solid if you had said 'the United States would be sad'. Good work - let's stick with the reasons supporting our opinion next time we write instead of adding so much. Mrs. Belinda
DeleteI pick King Tut because it was interesting he ruled, the world when he was eight or nine. When he died he was 18 and that's a young age. \By Chloe
ReplyDeleteI thank it is king tut because he had a kingdom and he died when he was 18 years old and he was kept in a pyramid. Noe
ReplyDeleteIn my opion i think that George Washington have the greatest impact on history.I think that because if he didn't create the supreme court what would we do.Also I think that because it is a lots a facts about him and also there are a lot of facts about King Tut but George washington have the most . For a fact George washington have been elected twice as a president and he established the nation money can"t you see that there are more reason in my wriitng there are moree facts about george washingto them king tut . Also George Washington has been elected twice and the only president so i think he has the most. When the people vote back then they think it should be him elected and they thougt that twice. For a fact the only reason is famous is because when they found his cast it was already stuff in it. Also George washington should be the greastest impact on history . Espectilly if he was elected twice yeah he has the greastest impact on history. So i think that it will be George Washington .Anaway i think George Washigton has the greastest imact. I think that because it is full of facts about him on the internect and lots of people voted for him . Also i think that because he the be important to a lot of people and people think he should be elected twice thats great. So my opion i think George Washington is . I think that because he was the first president to be elected.He is important to a lot of people and a lot of people are important to him . One more reason i think that is because he is genours and the First to be in the U.S. president so that made him in the history before any other president got in the president history. So i think that he should be the most impact on history and the very first President to be elected fist he created the national money . So i think he had the most impact on history. I think that because he is a awsome man and had a lost of peolpe important on history . Also he is the first president to be elected. So i think he had the most imact on history . By ; dakedra

George Washington because he lead the Navy which made us a free country. He made american money.
ReplyDeleteGeorge Washington and King Tut were both good leaders. I like that George Washington's presidency founded the United States Navy. I also like that he established the nations official money. He created the Supreme Court. I like that he did all of those things because those things are important. George Washington was an amazing president. King Tut was the ruler of Egypt. Tutankamun was only 8 or 9 when he became ruler of Egypt. I think it's cool that he was so young when he became ruler of Egypt. He died when he was 18. King Tut is well known because his tomb had everything when it was found. Along with his golden burial mask, his sandals were also found in the tomb. I think King Tut was a interesting person. His sandals had paintings of his enemies on the soles - so everywhere he went he trampeled all over his foes. I think King Tut was an interesting person. In my opinion, George Washington had the greatest impact on history. I picked George Washington because he founded the United States Navy and created the Supreme Court. I think he lead our country well during his presidency. So you can see, I think George Washington had the greatest impact on history. Another reason I picked George Washington is because King Tut was only famous for his tomb. He was famous for that because it had everything when it was found. Which leader had the greatest impact on history, George Washington or King Tut?

ReplyDeleteI pick George Washington. He was the only President to run that no one voted against. He started our money. Connor G
ReplyDeleteI think King Tutakamun has the best impact history because he is exciting to learn about.
ReplyDeleteHere are my four reasons why my opinion is right. King Tut was eight or nine when he was king. People found his stuff. and his sandals had pictures of his enemies on then. So when he walked, he stepped on all of his foes. King Tut was famous for his stuff he had. So he did nothing.
This is why I think King Tut has a better impact history.

ReplyDeleteGeorge Washington VS King Tut by Cian barber
ReplyDeleteDoes the first president have more impact on histery than King Tutankhamun???
Well George Washington people say he chopped down a cherry tree (even though I don't know whats so important about that) and the capital of the USA was named after him and King Tutankhamun was Just good for his tombs treasures and age of death and when he became king. And The 1st president is in presidents day.
so I hope you know (and everybody else)that George Washington had more impact than King Tutankhamun

DeleteI think King Tut was a great leader to his people. Because he hid his gold and all his belongings.And a funny reason is he had his enemies on his shoes.Kellie Haase
ReplyDeleteMy opin is George Washhington for a most history impack. He crosed the Delwar river across enime lines, on a December night. He was the leader of a army, he was elected twice for president, he was in the U.S.A. navy. He also made the Supreme Court. That's why I would pick him for the most history impack .

ReplyDeleteColton - You provide interesting facts that are from your prior knowledge - that is excellent and you used what you read. Make sure that you introduce the topic. Good work - way to grow! Mrs. Belinda
DeleteI think that King Tut is a great leader because he was king when he was eight or nine and he died when he was eighteen and he was buried in a tomb inside a pyramid and some people found his tomb and inside was his body with his stuff and there was a golden burial mask and paintings were on the walls and inside the tomb his sandals were there and the paintings on the walls was him when he was king and it seemed to be a story about him like the paintings where telling a story and it was so strange and just so cool how the paintings were kinda telling a story and i want to know why he became king when he was eight or nine and how he died when he was eighteen it is history to find out for yourself so always have a dream and keep the adventure in your mind and always keep that in mind if you want to see the pictures on the walls.
