Primary school

Idania Meza It all started on March 3rd, 1887. I was about 6 years old when Sullivan came to my small town of Tuscumbia. She was a graduate from Perkins school for the Blind. I want to say she was about 20 years old when she came. Sullivan taught me a lot of things and I remember she started teaching me right away. Sullivan started by teaching me to spell with my fingers. The first word she started with was doll. When Sullivan first started teaching me, I was cooperative, but after a while, I…

A new era has arisen that has challenged, if not overthrown, traditional education dogma; a sole focus on English and Mathematics in the Elementary School setting. Science and Social Studies…

Did school ruin your curiosity and eagerness to learn? The debate over whether to send children to school, for how long, and what they should be doing in school has long been an issue.

Holt was a teacher who taught at a private school in Colorado and wrote many books on the issue of education. Holt believes that, “traditional…

For my twenty hours of service, I volunteered in an elementary school classroom. My mom works at Rock Canyon Elementary, so I have volunteered there on and off for the last 4 years. My favorite place to be is with my old fourth grade teacher, Lynne Harrington. We have stayed in touch since fourth grade and she has become one of my best friends. I learn a lot from her and I love watching her interact with the students in her class. A lot of the time I was grading papers, helping small groups of…

fifth grade, I have been told that as long as I get good grades in school I will get far in life and all of my hard work will all pay off in the end. I grew up as the golden child of my family managing straight A’s, being captain of the soccer team, as well as a part time job. I never did anything to jeopardize my future and made sure I “crossed all my t’s” and “dotted all my i’s”. Coming off the high of finally graduating high school, my world came crumbling down on July 8, 2014 when I was…

Primary healthcare involves the treatment and prevention of common health problems in a community based setting. Secondary care focuses on the healthcare problems requiring more specialized treatment, such as…

Rural areas face various obstacles in their health delivery systems. In some ways there are major differences between rural and urban health systems. Rural areas tend to have less practicing physicians with a shortage of specialists. Lower pay to primary care physicians is deterring many from choosing the field.
