Rodeo clown

and encourage them to be the best they can be each day! From my earliest recollections I knew I wanted to be a teacher. My first classroom was in my bedroom closet where I taught Raggedy Ann and Andy, an overstuffed bear named Brown, and Cleo the Clown their ABC’s and how to add. In the Fall of 1969, my mom enrolled me in the three day program at Caldwell Playschool. I cried for the entire first day after my mom walked me into my Kindergarten class.…

and other countries. The gladiators influenced California to build the Los Angeles coliseum for the summer Olympic Games. They also influenced bull fights closely related to animal fights (Watkins 77). The gladiators inspired us to have fearless rodeo clowns to bravely protect the cowboy, where their lives could be lost every time they have the Cowboys get on the bull. The gladiators impacted boxers and wrestlers to use the same techniques as them . Athletes today have competitive spirits and…

The Ride of a Lifetime We have all had nightmares. They could be simple things such as seeing a clown or getting swarmed by spiders, but there are the ones that truly scare you, like drowning to death. For me, my childhood nightmare of drowning to death showed up at my front door last summer. It was terrifying, but through my experiences I learned that pain is temporary, memories are forever, and that you need to understand and respect Mother Nature to the fullest before you do anything…

He had a red rubber ball on his nose, tremendous earphones, and thick wavy glasses (Vonnegut Jr. 4). This makes him sound more like a clown from a rodeo and less like someone that harbors grounds to fear them. This satiric tone gives the story a level of ridiculousness that many would laugh at, if not for the weight of the message it…

Mike had always wondered when, and more specifically how he would die. Maybe, he thought, that one day the shadow monster would simply decide that it wanted another go, and would come back for him instead, or that Max's crazy older brother would accidentally run him over with his fancy expensive car. He hoped it would be a memorable death, like the kind everyone's talking about for a while, and whenever they mention your name, they whisper it. Mike never expected it to be whatever the hell he…

III. Professional Biography (two double-spaced pages) A. What factors influenced you to become a teacher? Describe your greatest contributions and accomplishments in education. My mother always alleged I became a teacher because I loved to chat, but more than that I loved to share. As always, my mother was correct. She believed in me, as well as numerous Tyler ISD teachers (TJ Austin, Bell, Moore, and Robert E. Lee) who educated me well and for this I will be grateful! It is my longing to…

There has always been an ongoing debate on the way that animals are treated. The discussion revolves around whether or not animals should have stricter laws protecting their rights. In today’s society, people feel that animals deserve the same rights as humans. I believe that animals should be protected more from the horrors of factory farms, entertainment, and testing labs. To do this animal welfare laws need to be revised so they set stricter standards that regulate how animals are treated and…
