Chalkboard

orphanages. That might be the last thing I fuck with. I run out of the office but forget which way to go. My instinct tells me left so I take it. And then another left. I find my way to the spelling room, but something catches my eye. I look at the chalkboard that displayed roughly seven words last time I checked. The only word on the board now is “help”. I turn to sprint down the hallway, but at the end is the figure of a little girl. The opposite way it is then. Gun at the ready, I try and…

Statues of monkeys on the windowsills, rulers on every desk, a 6 pack of beer on the chalkboard, an apple on the podium, and a projector hanging from the ceiling. When leaving the room my memory would only remember the relevant material upon recall. The schema of a classroom would have me remember the desks, chalkboard, apple, and projector, which are correct, but it would also have me think I remembered seeing books, a world map, and a clock, which…

I choose Robin Robertson’s poem Three Ways of Looking at God because of how it evolved over time. It starts off being about nature, but soon changes to a deep analysis of the Christian faith. Being a devoted Christian myself, the title gave me reason to unpack this poem more than any other. Having a connection through faith was the motivation I needed to commit to fully understanding this complex poem. When I first looked at this poem the title stood out to me. Three Ways of Looking at God…

culture that were important to me as a child. The first thing that came to my mind was not my favorite video game, or an instrument I played, in fact the it was a chalkboard. The reason why this popped into my head was because I learned english on it. As far back as I can remember; I would spent what it seemed like all day on this chalkboard practicing writing words in spanish then writing the english translation underneath. Everyday my mom would write a sentence from her english learning books…

Then we find out that the cold chill was right. we slowly find a man driving by and the only thing we can see is the shiny hubcaps and the loud squeak of the wheels like nails on a chalkboard screeching to a slow stop, we freeze. The strange man gets out and all of us are shocked, what are we going to do now? All of our minds are racing to come up with something and all we can think is “RUN,” Shouted Nico. One day I wanted…

Education in the Past, Present, and it’s Effectiveness Had education stuck where it was in the past, our education system today would look a lot different. Students would still be using Hornbooks, Magic Lanterns (small projectors), and Chalkboards. We would be constantly behaving and listening to the teacher. If students did disobey the teacher, we would get whipped or beaten. However, today’s education is much different and more effective. Now, we are using our Smartboards with computers, and…

Hoover Elementary. I walked through my front door, threw my blue butterfly backpack onto the hook, and ran directly up to my room. At the time, it could be more accurately referred to as my classroom. Inside yellow and blue painted walls with a chalkboard and cliche classroom posters, I taught my class of invisible students the exact same lesson Mrs. Molle taught that day in my first grade class. I have always aspired to be a teacher for as long as I can remember, and I have been working with…
