    Furthermore, my second year placement was at Jane and Finch Ontario Early Year Centre (OEYC). Before starting my placement, I was worried about the community that my centre was located. I searched, “Jane Finch Mall” in the Google and I found few articles about shooting and murders. I was very hesitant to go there for the first time. However, when I actually got there and met the people at Jane-Finch OEYC, I found out it was a very pleasant place to be at. In fact, these people were one of the nicest people I’ve ever met in my life. I was quite shamed about myself of unknowingly having the prejudice and stereotype against the people who live in this area. According to Angelini, these kind of prejudgment can be seen as necessary, as we all need to organize the stimuli basis of statement or belief and it occurs in spite of evidence (2012, p.108). After 12 weeks of placement, I concluded that Jane and Finch community wasn’t as bad as what it was portrayed on the media. Living life as an Asian, Korean, I think that my ethnicity and race was a major part of my identity. Being born and growing up in my home country definitely plays a big part of my life because of the different culture and the environment. It is interesting and sometimes funny to watch people react differently and treat me differently…

    Primary source textual evidence # 2:“Don’t be silly, Jean Louise, ‘’ said Aunt Alexandra. ‘’The thing is, you can scrub Walter Cunningham till he shines, you can put him in shoes and a new suit, but he’ll never be like Jem. Besides, there’s a drinking streak in that family a mile wide. Finch women aren’t interested in that sort of people.”(Lee, 248). I think that this quote ties very well into the 4 groups of people because Aunt alexandra explains the Cunninghams as who they are. In conclusion…

    had thoughts like these before Aunt Alexandra came (Lee 178). For this reason, it is clear that she has been trying to mold Jem, Scout, and Atticus into this perfect family that is nothing like they used to be before she came. Mothers want the best for their family, but they accept who they are; they will not try to change their family as Alexandra has so desperately been trying to do. Calpurnia has never tried to change the ways of the Finch family. Rather, she accepts them for who they are and…

    it quite clear that Calpurnia was not going anywhere and now Aunt Alexandra had shown that she had taken in what Atticus had said. Also, it took Aunt Alexandra some time to understand that Atticus was the one in charge. In addition to that, she did not have the right to gossip about anything that Atticus told her in secrecy. “‘Oh, Mrs. Perkins,’ [Aunt Alexandra] said, ‘you need some more coffee. Let me get it.’” (p. 317). After she heard that Tom Robinson had been shot, Aunt Alexandra went back…

    In conclusion, in this lab, we are trying to find how different beak types influence the amount of seeds they collect and how different seed types influence the amount of seeds the beak collects. My hypothesize is that the largest beak (binder clip) will collect the most amount of seeds because there would be more space. The data doesn’t support/support my hypothesis since the relationship between the variables is inconclusive. For instance, the data shows that the clothespin “beak” from the…

    the day yet is caught behind the bars again amid the night (Gilman 188). Since the wallpaper has been uprooted she has gotten away and the storyteller is allowed to withdraw into the visualization 's brain. There is a solitary piece of the story that mirrors the breakdown of her personality all in its own, and that is the point at which she keeps in touch with: "I have out finally, regardless of you and Jane! Also, I 've pulled off the vast majority of the paper, so you can 't return me!"…
