It is rare that a teenager will ever lose their cell phone. Secondly, because in my phone note it will email them to me therefore they are…

In Unit two we have a lot learned about “Who Are You”. Many times as adults who are working and adults who have families we forget sometimes who we are. I have learned that we get so wrapped up in our careers and other obligations we lose ourselves in the process as an person. We can never say “no” to a family member or friend because we think that they need us. In so many times they don’t really need us. Also, in Unit two I have learned ten tips on how to achieve and become a better student.…

Opinion on Teaching To Kill A Mockingbird I strongly believe that To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee should be taught in school. It teaches children, teenagers, and even adults moral education and gives a history of what all went on “back then”. Jem states that “There’s four kinds of folks in the world.

Brown, Ann Liedel-Rice, and Pamela Soeder, discusses how teacher candidates today are mostly European-American and monolingual with little to no experience with diversity or perceive diversity in a negative way.

I have faced many challenges growing up that have taught me many lessons. Some of these lessons were learned simply while others were done so painstakingly. Thankfully, these lessons will follow me through my adulthood.

The best way for the school to spend a gift of $5,000 would be two different possibilities that I would argue. I would argue that the school should buy physical books or more personal chromebooks.
