Students were able to take their thumbnails and proceed forward with their projects. I think overall they were able to explore using their final thumbnail. They were more energetic to work on their projects. I broke down the materials into groups and supplied those at different tables. This method worked extremely well in helping to not only keep myself organized but the students also. Student 1M (first day): Once he finished up his thumbnail sketches he went and grabbed some of the practice…
Most of us have that one person in our life that has changed us for the better, that person in my life is my coach Jeanna. I began gymnastics when I was 5 years old and Jeanna was my coach from when I started to when I ended at age 17. During those 12 years she taught me so many things that helped during my gymnastics career and things that will help me in the future. Without my coach I would be nowhere near the person I am today and I am very thankful that I have gotten to spend most of my life…
Good morning Kalina. This is the last long apology I’ll ever write you. Kalina, since the day we met I knew we had something special, but I didn’t know what that something was. No one had ever wanted anything special with me. No one had ever wanted anything with me, period. I had never really had any friends, definitely never more than one good friend. Starting in middle school, my parents were going through a tough time (not in their relationship just like, with other parts of life) and I…
Obesity is always the number one fear I think about daily. Keeping weight off is hard and always hard to stick to for a long period of time. It creates health issues with you heart and can lead to sometimes life threating illnesses. I wanted to study if I cut one major thing from my diet like soda. Then add a little cardio daily such as fifth-teen minutes would that really be enough to lose a fair amount of weight in a month. We all want that perfect body but some lack dedication to do something…
To me, being invisible is like having an unlimited supply of your favorite cookie. In the beginning, you start slow, you are reasonable with your cookie consumption. You eat the cookie maybe after a meal as dessert but later you can 't get enough of the cookie. Eating one leads to another being consumed, which in turn leads to another, and all of a sudden, several months later, you’ve gained several pounds, probably have some type of sugar problem, and just the thought of a cookie will make you…
Right Bird Left is a painting that primarily used four of the visual elements to show and display a different meaning of the painting. This is a painting that used implied texture, which was accomplished by the way the artist worked on the brush strokes. The strokes created an idea that there were textures that were actually on the painting, even though they were not there. I think that it was good that Krasner made the strokes look different with the brush and changed the way it looked because…
CHAPTER SIX The Enchanted Amulet Morning brought heavy clouds of chocolate-colored dust and whipping winds, gloomy weather that made it hard to remain hopeful. “Off on another adventure, eh?” Cotton coughed, as he vaulted over a dust devil. “This is exciting. Just you and me on a quest to track down the golden key.” “I just hope we can find it soon. This stuff is awful,” I choked. “I even have grit between my teeth.” “What’d you say?” he shouted. “You’re a pit beneath my wreath. What does that…
Pink argues that motivation 2.0 doesn’t work well in the work force, that we should use motivation 3.0. Pink states, “Motivation 2.0 serves some purpose well. It’s just deeply unreliable” (Pink 19). In other words, Pink believes that motivation 2.0 is not dependable anymore so we need an upgrade and that society now is like an operating system. We need upgrades in the work force. He argues that rewards and punishments aren’t good anymore. Pink believes autonomy, mastery, and purpose should be…
Two days ago, I made a mistake, a very big mistake. In the next few hours, as I’m typing this, a breakup could occur because of my blunders. Let’s start with the beginning of how this all happened. It all began two days ago when a friend of mine, Steven, that lives all the way in Washington, and I, decided to collaborate. Our collaboration involved in creating a plan that would help one of our friend out, Chavez, with his online relationship. Chavez was dating a person named Dazz; at least…
I grew up in a small town called Haron, the population was about 1,500. It was a small town, nothing bad ever happened. Everyone was so friendly and kind to each other. There was only one high school so all my friends were practically living on the same block as me. Most of our hangout spots were at the café or the bowling alley, there wasn’t that much to do in Haron. I lived on a small farm just near widow creek. In my town, Widow Creek was forbidden by Mayor Judson, I’ve always wanted to know…
