The students also understood how to contrast. After I modeled contrasting to the students they knew to “look for the…

Why is it that people associate ideas such as class, personality, and overall likeability simply with someone’s name? How can a few letters create such a vivid association of memories, emotions, and more? The natural function of the human brain causes people to associate things with a certain name, leading to the name carrying a lot of meaning. F. Scott Fitzgerald utilizes this natural function of the brain in order to add meaning to his writing. When someone changes their name in a book, the…

The focus of my lesson plan was on Vygotsky’s sociocultural theory. I chose to use this theory due to an article by Abdul Panhwar on Vygotsky’s theory and how a child’s intellectual development can be broken down into two stages. Stage one is that children learn through communicating and interacting with other people. Stage two is that children are able to strengthen what they have learned by themselves after having help from peer collaboration (Panhwar, 2016, p. 183-184). Therefore, according…

In the article “False Positive” by Beth Haller, she claims that, “Society holds few expectations for people with disabilities - so anything they do becomes amazing”. Haller strongly believes that in today’s society a person who is disabled is set to be amazing no matter what…
