Who is My Audience? I’m writing this article for The Ubyssey; therefore, my audience is the general student body population of UBC. More specifically, it’s towards first time college students who have been scarred by a decline in their grades. The students who confused and surprised by the amount of work that is expected of them, and don’t know how to manage their time wisely. Its to aid those who are naively spending hours on a studying method that simply wont reap them the grades they’re…

given new lists of words every week and at the end of each year a final about them all. I had to memorize these terms because many of them we would later use when learning in class. I used different techniques to remember all of these. Mnemonics, flashcards, and writing the terms many times. I always did really well on these because of my preference of memorization. Another time memorization came in handy for me was when we were learning the skills for the CNA test. We were given a booklet my…

As a girl, the phrases, “you play like a girl” or “you’re a girl, you can’t do that” have always been words that are casually just thrown around, yet it causes flames to come out of my ears. Starting when I was about three, I was a sporty kid always running around. I liked to play soccer with the boys teams, since they were much more physical and would roughly push each other on the hard ground rather complaining when a nail got broken, or hair got pulled. I liked to play baseball rather than…

Depression can be effectively treated in 90 percent of cases with a combination of medication and therapy. Unfortunately, only 1 in 3 people with depression will get help, which is why suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death among teenagers today. One of the most dominant themes in the comedy novel, It's Kind of a Funny Story, written by Ned Vizzini is depression. Craig Gilner, the protagonist of the novel like many of us, deals with many day to day problems that leaves him in a whirlwind of…

tutoring because I wanted them to gain study habits outside of the college because it is so important! I showed them how to make mental maps, quizzes and my personal favorite flash cards. While the students were getting ready for their exam I saw some flashcards and it made me so happy. It was reassuring to hear their comments that I was helping them learn. In my human anatomy tutoring sessions we actually found some apps on our smart phone or tablets that had fantastic 3D models of the human…

The English language consists of a mere 26 Letters, consisting of five vowels and 21 consonants. These 26 letters are where it all begins; reading, writing, phonics, phonemes, phonological awareness, blends, diagraphs, rimes, contractions, and so much more, but this assessments focus will be phonics. Phonics, what is it? What does the term mean for a teacher? This question along with some of the main strategies teachers use to instruct students with phonics including embedded, analogy,…

Journal 4: What do I enjoy doing? What subjects do I like? For as long as I can remember I have loved all things creative. Growing up my house was always filled with art and music. My dad used to take me on field trips to show me all of the artwork he had done including murals of Mickey Mouse and the Disney princesses in Children’s Hospital. His influence lead me to several won art shows and poster contests. Coinciding with my love for art and drawing is my obsession with music. Between my two…

This course has provided me with a strong understanding of how students in the primary grades learn to read and write and what I need to do to ensure I provide my students with the best literacy learning experiences. More specifically, I have learned foundations of literacy instruction, principles of effective literacy teachers, stages of literacy development, common core standards, the reading and writing processes, different way to assess and assessment tools, how to organize for reading and…

castings echoes ringing from the white walls. I walk in slow paced circles, studying the small desks, the kind you see in middle school with the chairs connected to a miniature individual table, which were lined up along the wall. I pull out my 3x8 flashcards clutching them so tightly like they might give me magical powers to not mess up. It’ll be okay. It’s my story anyways. How could I forget my own story? My eyelids shiver shut. I hear this whimpering sound like a hurt dog with pain clawing…
