A lecture will become a template to life and will contain relatively easy alterations especially during personal experiences, and so, a simple bike race breakout that turns out to a more painful recollection. Most of the children that might have witnessed it, would have complied with me as well. On that day, at the age of about six or seven years old. As soon as the sidewalk in front of the apartment came into view, a crowd of kids clustered nearby because it talked about a bike race, it would take place at around sunset. Sundown came and the bikes

    Before going into this class, I always thought culture was just part of your background and you grew up with it. I saw it as something that had to do with your family history. Which, in a way it does, but that 's not what culture is all about. I always love learning more about other cultures and other people in general. Culture is not only a part of your family background, but impacts your point of view and how you see things.…

    I can truly remember a lot of school events and encounters that assisted and helped me to achieve and or what helped me to develop my education goals and what helped produce who I am today as a person. The teachers attitude towards me and the materials presented. Also the love that the teachers showed in making sure that I understood and applied the material that I supposed to gain are elements that influence my education and my life today. The superlative significance lesson that I learned is to never give up on a student and my children and for me to do all that I know and can do for my students and children. Our textbook states that “ Clearly, the types of nonparental experiences that children have with other adults influence not only…

    From the moment we are born we begin to learn important lessons teach us. These lessons are essential in helping to shape our character, and ultimately lead to who we become. Everybody has had that moment when someone, or even possible something, has taught you a valuable lesson that you will never forget. I know that I’ve had a multitude of them, but most of them I can’t remember the specific situation that transpired to teach me the lesson. For example, I can’t remember the first time that I touched a hot stove and realized that I probably shouldn’t do that.…

    At nineteen years old I have written more papers, letters, texts, e-mails and notes then ten people can even remember, and in all honesty only three really stick out in my memory: a four page paper on my dream vacation from ninth grade, my five page research essay from last semester, and my very first college essay also from last semester. With these three in mind I decided one was not like the others, thus my most memorable writing experience would have to be my very first college essay, a short three page paper assigned on a pivotal point in my life, entitled “No, Because I Said So.” This is my most memorable writing experience for three reasons, the first being because it was so difficult for me to write, the second, it took me writing the paper to fully understand the life lesson my pivotal point had taught me, and the third, most important of all is because I was able to share my essay with Mrs. Barrett, thanking her for creating the pivotal point in my life.…

The expectations for adolescence are ever growing, and after falling behind it is easy for a student to become lost in the world known as “remedial.” Once deemed as such, it becomes nearly impossible to shed said label and become, at best, average. Breaking free from previously set inadequacies and challenging the unknown world of education are goals in which anyone can accomplish. In Mike Rose’s book Lives on the Boundary, he talks about his early years being placed in a vocational course at the secondary school he attended.…

    After arriving to Wood Middle School as I would on any other day, I walked into the bustling commons area and noticed a herd of students scattered into their separate cliques. However, what immediately caught my eye was the number of teachers and administrators who clearly looked flustered and distressed. I soon left the commons area and headed towards the library to figure what exactly was going on. Sure enough, there was a cluster of teachers gazing at the library’s television in utter disbelief over what would soon become known as “The Stock Market Crash of 2008”. Even though I was only in the 6th grade, I still had enough competence to realize that this was not an ordinary day in the stock market.…
