School prayer

start observing my cooperating teacher’s discussion. It’s so sad because again only few came to school. I don’t know what’s their reason why they are absent for this day. Day 12 It was sunny day. A new day that is full of excitement and courage for myself to pursue the adventures in my life as a new teacher. This day I start thinking what strategy I’m going to use. Again only few go to school and some of their teachers did not discussed that much because of many absent. Despite of…

MQP is more than just a school to me, it is a lifestyle. It is a lifestyle of Unity and Respect. In Kindergarten, all I did was sit at my desk, and mess around and wait to go home and play with my Legos, and that was the most important thing to me at the time. First Grade wasn’t a very good year for me because I had to start living inbetween two different houses. This was around the time when my parents got divorced and it was a very hard time, but MQP helped me a lot. Second Grade was an…

When I boarded the yellow school bus, carrying only a sleeping bag and a duffle, I had no idea of the impact the short trip would have on me. I never expected I would gain a better understanding of people who live with homelessness, or that they would inspire me with their determination and fortitude to approach challenges in my own life differently. Before my trip to Seattle I focused on myself a lot. I constantly compared myself to others, and I believed I was entitled to more than I had. When…

Soybeans, God, and Horseshit Small towns always have a distinct smell. You won’t notice it at first. No one really does. There’s always too much shit in the air. Horses, cows, pigs, chickens. Good old boys and god. Drivers will wave you on at stop signs, regardless of the fact that it’s their turn. Downtown will be historic, but all the buildings will be crumbling, and no one will be able to afford the restoration. The people will be friendly, tired, and stupid. And the smell will never leave.…

I grew up in a small church, where my mom was a Sunday school teacher and my dad was the Assistant Pastor. They also were involved in the youth a lot. Growing up, I can remember driving down the road on our way to church and seeing kids that knew or my mom knew and we would ask them if they wanted to go to church with us. Next thing you knew, we have like 5-6 local kids going to church with us. I can remember when we use to ask them where they lived so we could make sure that it was alright with…

One of the most prevalent differences between cultures seems to be how the youth are educated. Concerning the kinds of material taught, the methods used to produce learning, and the relationship between students and teachers, education varies extensively from culture to culture. After reading Abubakari Lunna’s life story regarding his drumming education, it is evident that the way people present themselves has a lot to do with how we develop relationships with others. While I have heard of…

Should We Stop Child Labour? (Opinion Paper) How would you feel if you ever had to see your 7 year old brother or sister going to work instead of school? In today’s society teenagers or kids usually whine about how much work they did around the house when in reality they only did a bit. They usually don’t think about the kids that are forced in to labouring for many different purposes and cant whine about it because they won’t get there pay or they would get beaten. Have you ever thought why…

CCSS, its transition into school and how it’s affected the lives of students and teachers. This reform on education might have hindered the system…

a role-model. A successful teacher also includes all their students in school activities, and events that will happen throughout the year. The teacher has to create a positive community in the school to enhance the school as a community. It will be very difficult to connect with high school students, because they are in a critical time of their life, where they are a rebel against any adult, they are trying to balance; school, family, relationships, sports, their identity, and the identity…
