Being bullied changes you as a person. Sometimes this is a bad change, sometimes it is a good change. After being bullied, I feel as if I have changed for the better. After being bullied you learn valuable things about people. Looking back on the event, I can see why my bully did it. Everybody wants attention, everybody wants to feel needed, and everybody wants to feel included. Some people just find a bad way to get it; any attention is still attention whether it is negative or positive. Before…

Since I was born I have always dealt with a speech impediment. I went to speech therapy from the age 5 to 13. As I got older started going less and less to speech therapy but I would still go at least twice a month. Th reason behind my speech impediment is because I can not breath out of nose, which is very key whenever you are talking. I have improved greatly over the years to the point where people tell that I have done my whole life that they can not even tell I had a speech impediment at one…

My childhood memories regarding learning mathematics has been for the most part positive from 6th grade onwards. From 1st grade to 5th grade I was not conscientious so at times math tests produced anxiety but math was, at the same time, easier and simpler back then. I recall being the fastest person to state the multiplication tables in 4th grade. During 6th to 8th grade, although I was not necessarily the smartest, I landed at the top of the class in advance math since I was very hard working.…

1. What did you observe about the developmental level of students? During the video I observed many different developmental levels of students. Some students seemed interested and were engaged by raising their hands to answer questions while others did not. Those raising their hand showed they had some background knowledge on Tecumseh. The same students raised their hand time and time again. There were students who were sitting quietly watching the Brain Pop Video while a few other students…

Learning how to read and write played a major role in my life. Learning how to read and write falls in everyday life. I feel like reading and writing is the best steps for me to gain knowledge about life, but at the same time it was hard for me because I had many obstacles standing in my way, and I still have obstacles in front of me. Even though, I have those obstacles in my way, I’m going to still climb over them. Even though, reading and writing is one of my greatest weaknesses I still try to…

I’ve always enjoyed the rush of performing. The stare of thousands of eyes on you, the music ringing loudly in your ears. Sometimes, though, it’s too much. My whole life is a performance, always pushing me to be perfect in the suddenity of the moment. Don’t be fooled however, it’s a horrible show I always put on. When I was three years old, I was bouncing off the walls, digging in pots, being the problematic child. The only things that calmed me were singing and generally being worn out. That…

During the interest inventory information was gathered about Nadia’s personality, what she likes to do, and what her favorite things are. While responding to some of the questions Nadia would pause to think about what she was going to say and use the term “um” and “stuff” a lot. Nadia’s favorite T.V. shows are Girl Meets World and Austin and Ally. She likes these shows because they exhibit friendship and the importance of being honest with them.) Nadia shows an interest in math and reading…

Growing up in African was difficult. I was there till I was 10 years old, moving from a different family member each year to find a place that would be suitable for me to be successful at school. I am not one of those kids that education came to easily, I used to hate going to school. I hated the fact that I was always the last person to get the right answer in class and that is if I did get the answer right at all. I hated the fact what I could never talk to my friends about how I was doing in…
