When I was in fifth grade, people often asked me what I aspired to be when I grew up. I said that I wanted to be a professional soccer player, despite my being the clumsiest girl on the field. I was asked again at my middle school graduation. And even though I was only five feet tall, I said that I wanted to be a supermodel. Halfway through my high school career, I told the curious questioner that I would one day be a child advocacy lawyer. Now, as a graduating high school senior, I assume I…

I threw a ball to a student and asked to say the first thing that pops in their head when I say the words “Baby.” They then passed it to each other and everyone got a chance to say what they had a mine.

Books, or literature, could be anything with words that have meaning, but to critic Roland Barthes 'literature is the questions minus the answer, ' he means that within each piece of literature there are questions that the book leaves with you.

insatiable curiosity and was always brimming with questions. Where did the dinosaurs go? Why is that man homeless? Where do babies come from? And my parents would always patiently listen and conjure up a quick and simple answer. Growing up I came to realize that some of these answers that my parents had given me weren 't always entirely correct or even necessarily true at all. But they would set a very important precedent in my life. What 's even more interesting; however, is that over the past…

Both articles were curious how people retrieved those memories and if outside factors could affect their remembrance. In both studies, the participants were college students and had to answer questions regarding an event.

disobeying him but she could not name the exact emotion that he would feel. The last question about this story proved the most difficult for her. It was a question about what she would chose to do if she was Holly. She repeated a lot of her earlier answers to the questions and never truly said if she would help the kitten or follow her father’s orders. This may show that she is not cognitively developed enough to truly put herself in others shoes and make choices about a situation she is not…

Interview Summary I interviewed a 3-year-old boy from Mrs. Mason’s class at the Elisabeth Amen Nursery School on February 17, 2016.
