Our actions that we make show whether or not we are good. Sometimes we may make some bad decisions along the way and some of us hold ourselves accountable worrying what others may think until we act in a way that still shows goodness in…

It’s important that we remember that teaching occurs both inside and outside of the classroom. Any moments and interactions…

Parents think their lives are hard, compared to the lives of their children. Their children simply do not have to do any work. What parents do not understand is the hardship that children go through, due to being powerless. Their struggles are clearly exhibited in “Eleven,” by Sandra Cisneros, and “Boys and Girls,” by Alice Munro.

I think that Peter Gray brings up excellent points in his article, but I believe that reading brings more to society and the real world. The three aspects of reading mentioned in his article-moral, emotional, and social…

This is an issue because these subjects are very important, just because they are not tested does not mean that they should be ignored. Only 340 million people…
