Clique

These films both give a view on the high school lifestyle, the films showed that for most high school students a lot go through the same experiences. Every high school has that “popular” clique, new students and at one point all let it get to them. The new kids try to fit in, but it usually does not end up good. Every “popular,” main girl does have a little sass in them and is very feminine which makes them likable. Both films have iconic…

welcoming. I met that same classmate again in another class later in the day where he introduced me to another friend of his. That experience gave me the confidence to socialize and make friends of my own. By the end of the year I found my way into 2 cliques that I would occasionally hang out with. Despite having a better social life, it wasn’t until the next year that I felt I fit…

trap in situations when I have to discipline my friends in different situations. If I keep applying this specific ethical trap, I can easily be perceived by my subordinates or peers as having favoritism for an individual or group. This can lead to cliques forming around the work center, and start to hinder teamwork, comradery, and morale within the work center. I have a subordinate who I consider part of my family because we’ve been through a lot together over the years. I find it…

Also putting forth the effort to succeed in both areas is a must to do the best that you possibly can.

Prompt #5 Come the end of my Sophomore year, I faced an impasse. I had committed myself almost entirely to band. It encapsulated my life. All of my activities, all of my friends, all of my hobbies, all had one thing in common: they all centered around band. As one might expect in such a situation, I began to yearn for something else. I realized that I might not be as passionate about band as I had once thought. It was fun, sure, but there had to be something more to life than playing beats on…

The readings for this week consisted of reading chapters one through five of Morgan Giddings “4 Steps to Funding; Avoid Rejection and Get Your Grant Funded on the Next Try With This Simple Four Step Formula”. As the title states, Giddings’s work is about how to write grants in a way that will ensure the grant writer obtains funding. Giddings’s writing reads like an infomercial, and while it may seem silly at first, it makes valid points on how to write a grant. Giddings addresses the need for…

Indigenous class. Because I was so focused on making sure myself and my friends were happy, I forgot about making other people feel comfortable. So as a teacher, my goal is to take down the boundaries of isolation to some of those kids. Encouraging cliques and different personalities to merge will not only help students to get involved, but to create an environment where everyone is involved and feels wanted and safe. The goal is not to throw kids who may be quiet into a loud and uncomfortable…

instead of “I” or “they”. Extremely cohesive groups also are cooperative, respectful, and generally meet goals. Groups with scarce cohesiveness tend to miss meetings, operate in informal groups outside of the formal group (i.e., create factions, or cliques) and tend to express sentiments of frustration. The key indicators of high, or low, group cohesiveness are: (1) size , (2) success experience, (3) difficult of group entry, and…

In New Mexico there was a kid who was bullied in kindergarten and throughout his school years. A super friendly football player heard about what the kid was experiencing and he wanted to help. The boy was bullied by a clique of other kids. They alienated him and called him names. They made inferences that he was different and that made him a target. The football player decided to eat lunch with him and that caught some other kids’ attention. The New Mexico school wanted…
