That situation was completely on them and they had the choice of staying in their house or going to the water, but they chose to go to the water.…

    I’ve been in school for about 11 years, every year is different, but yet the same. Because we are at the same school for years, it’s the same people, same school, and same everyday routine.

    Tycianna Caldwell Reynolds ENGL 1010-01N 8 Oct. 2015 Taken for Granted: America We as individuals are very quick to look only at the bad sides of situations. We are sometimes only able to see the things that we do not have and overlook the things that we do. We take for granted things like freedom, equality, and being able to gain an education. Many forget that these things are not guaranteed to others that live in different places. I realized how fortunate I am to live in America when I met someone from another country.…

    draw pictures around it for whatever was going on that week. I only got it one time; spelling was never really a strong suit for me not until much, much later. Second grade was back with Mrs. Crawford again. This was another excellent year because she was the teacher that got to teach us phonics, yes we waited until second grade to really delve into the world of phonics rather than kindergarten like the do now.
