All three students have strengths in being very observant in class. This notifies me that I need to engage the class is a discussion. A debate or Socratic seminar might work best for this class and especially these three students because of how vocal they are. However, their weaknesses and the ways in which these three learn are very different. I would never be able to pair Aiden and Logan because Aiden is dependent on another person, and Logan is independent and works best by working alone. Aiden and Alex, on the other hand, would be okay working together because they both prefer to work in groups or partners. Alex and Aiden’s strong abilities in presenting information verbally allows them to give each other more ideas and help one another form a stronger argument or answer. Since both of them are classified with IEPs and neither of them are strong at written expression, I would still need to accommodate how they should present their answer or argument. I would have them do an oral presentation because I know they would be able to inform the class and myself that they are knowledgeable of the content. Alex, Aiden, and Logan are all interested in video games. This is about the only thing these three have in common outside of the classroom. Their interest in video games allows me to infer that they are good at strategizing, and have great hand-eye coordination. A difference that I have noticed is the school spirit in each of these three students. Alex is the student who has…

In our second story is kind of a similar setting but with completely different outcomes. “The only man on Liberty Street” by William Kelly is a simple story about a white man named Maynard, Who decided to follow his heart and leave his wife to live with his mistress and daughter named Jennie on Liberty Street. Seems fair enough…

people are going to disagree in something but I am a strong believer on being slow to speak and fast to listen. For example, I recently had a conflict with my manager at my current job because I had asked her in advance for a day off and it was approved, but once the schedule came out, I was schedule to work that day. I calmly went to her office and I brought it up to her attention, she explained to me that she really needed that day and I was upset because I needed to have that day off to…
Who Am I ? “Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.” Dr. Seuss once wrote this poem which was music to my ears growing up. It fascinated me to think that in this gigantic world filled with 7 billion people that I was the only Amanda A Laryea to ever walk its surface. Until about 8 years later on a random Facebook search, I found about four other individuals who share my name. However, our similar names do not connote similar personality…
Introduction It is widely accepted in the Christian faith that mankind is created in the image of God. When an individual believes this, they can use their understanding of this doctrine to determine how to interact with people in their day-to-day lives. After I graduate, my goal is to become an Elementary Teacher. As a teacher I will interact with my students, other teachers, administration, and my students’ parents/guardians. I think it is also important to know how to interact appropriately…
A mindset or emotional support is often overlooked. Anyone who wants to succeed, but tends to stumble knows this well. Everyone wants to be the best there ever was in a certain profession, unfortunately those who want to succeed occasionally have distractions which cause them to “screw up” that take over his or her ability to put the past behind them and notice the flowers blooming outside. In Janice Hudson’s memoir Trauma Junkie, Hudson takes her reader on a series of CLASTAR (California…

Growing up an only child and having mexican parents, I was always taken care of. Since I was the only child, my parents were overprotective of me so that I grew up to be a good person. I always thought of this as annoying. I was extremely scared to do bad things, especially in kindergarten. In school I’ve taken various tests ranging from, your learning type, or how smart you are. None of those I felt truly represented who I am. That was until I took the Hexaco test. Sure there were a few things…
Ducking inconspicuously into the shadows, Ryder leaned on a rusty lamppost and pulled a copy of the local paper from under his arm. As he watched the ink rub off onto his fingers, the absurdity of his situation was not lost on him. In an age of computers, electronic tablets and smart phones, who in the world still read newspapers? Besides dumb ass bikers like himself intent on appearing casual while they stalked other people, he couldn’t imagine. There was something about reading the local…
