In 1775, fighting broke out between the Thirteen Colonies and the British Empire which evolved into the American Revolutionary War. The colonies possessed a cunning commander in Benedict Arnold and his cunningness lead to decisive decisions such as his march to Quebec. However, Arnold betrayed the colonies and joined the British Empire’s army. Arnold switched sides because he believed that the leaders of the United States were corrupt and if he joined the British, he would receive personal benefits and if he delivered a quick victory for the British, the colonies would be better off.…
Daryl Cagle’s amusing diction reveals the astonishing truth about today’s educational system as he swaps out “a young girl’s quote bubble with a picture of a marked scantron test” and recreates her facial expressions as “ignorant and irritating”. He portrays an elderly woman asking a young girl what she had obtained from going to school that day. Cagle sums up modern education by simply placing a multiple choice answer document to the girl’s response. By using multiple colors and patchy lines adds touches of ignorance and foolishness to the piece. Cagle uses this sketch to criticize our educational system.…

Once upon a time, in the year 2013, on the island of Oahu, there was a student who was going to start the beginning of 7th grade in Waipahu Intermediate School. That student was a boy named Jarren Calizo. In Elementary, Jarren was a very determined academic student who always strived for ME (meets exceeds) grades, the elementary version of an A, and ended up achieving perfect grades every time. He worked independently a lot of times and helped confused classmates.…
“Mrs. Prosser! Mrs. Prosser!” the chunky, troublemaker David shouted, jumping out of his seat. “Emily glued her butt to the chair!” “Mr. Newton, are you being a tattle tail right now?”…
Imagine you're entering to your class after a nice and long summer vacation. Your teacher tells you that you're having a test to see how you're doing in that math, english or science class. I am pretty sure that you will not do that well on your test, thanks to your nice and long summer vacation. That is one of the reasons why I believe that a year-round school schedule is better or more helpful for students than having a traditional schedule. to have a better understanding on what we are doing.…
The feedback I provided students on the nonfiction texts feature assessment addressed each individual needs and strengths relative to the standard being measured because it provided students with written exclamation on how well they performed on the assessment then I discussed the areas they had specific difficulty with, which included following through of the directions needed to complete the assessment to earn full credit. For example one student gave an answer but did not include the name of the text feature used to locate the information needed to answer the questions. I provided feedback for the students to look at the underlying sentences in the direction because she had forgotten to include the text feature and some her answers were not written using full sentence as…
Date and Time: Friday, February 3, 2017, 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (3 hours) Task/Activity: Students in both classes were first given a spelling test covering words they were given at the beginning of the week. While I did not have permission to view the individual scores myself, it was implied that most students received a 70% or above. Following this, students reviewed the short story titled “My Furthest Back-Person.” The day before, Mrs. Lanza was absent and had the students read the story and take a multiple-choice quiz.…
Jane loved to learn, but had difficulty understanding when instructions were given only in an auditory manner. She believes, however, that since instructions are most often given this way in her classroom, that this is the way she should learn. Jane often feels inadequate in class because she falls short of the expectations she sets for herself, certain that if she concentrates hard enough, she will remember all of the instructions that are given. The stress of failing courses because she is unable to remember all of the instructions are becoming perilously burdensome for her and, even as an adult, she feels like collapsing under the weight. She considers giving up and quitting some of her courses.…
While observing in Beth Johnston’s First Grade classroom at Eugene Field Elementary School, I have noticed some effective and ineffective classroom management practices that she uses while I have been in the classroom. One effective classroom management technique that I have observed is that Mrs. Johnston puts her student’s desks into groups of three or four. This is an effective technique because she puts her strong students with her not as strong students, which can help with the students who might need a little help staying on track with the lesson that they are supposed to get done. Also, Mrs. Johnston has changed the groups a couple of times since I have been observing in the classroom. This I believe is effective because the students…

After distributing a quiz to each student, my teacher set her timer for one minute. In that minute, she expected us to complete the quiz in its entirety, without flaw. If a flaw were found upon grading, meaning that at least one answer was marked incorrect, we would fail the quiz for that week, and ultimately be denied a sticker. This sticker symbolized our comprehension of the material, and was utilized to track our progression on a large chart in the back of the classroom. It was not until I began struggling to learn the material that I became aware of the individual progression of my classmates.…
Students face various social and emotional challenges as they develop and interact with the world around them. Their ability to control their emotions and reactions is dependent on their level of development, surrounding environment, and the skills they have been taught, modeled, and practiced that deal with social and emotional factors (Ed Psych, p 70). During my field experience in my 3rd grade classroom at S.H. Elementary, I have observed Mrs. Branson establish relationships and provide students with the necessary skills needed to develop their emotional competencies. Mrs. Branson teaches 3rd grade in a charter school located in the south suburbs of Minneapolis. Her class consist of 23 diverse student learners from various racial, ethical,…
I am in Al-Faisal Academy trainee as a teacher more than administer so, I get all the teaching skills; reading, writing and listening in a good way and I like that because my hope in the future is to become English teacher. But before that I want to talk about the works in English Department Office as follow, I had the responsibility of evaluated the classrooms, the books and, the teachers of three levels 1, 2, and 3. According to the students, the results were that: 4 of the teachers are good and 2 are bad because they have a bad accent since they are from Saudi Arabia. But the result of books evaluation was very good. Every class said that because Al-Faisal Academy brings their books from Cambridge University which has a native accent…
