It was a normal morning in my house. As usual, my dad woke me up and I got ready for my day. I moped out to the kitchen where my breakfast was waiting. Then I walked onto the bus and arrived at school. I walked into Kaneland John Stewart Elementary School and walked into my first grade room. Standing at the board, was a substitute. Everyone was shocked. As we finally settled down the teacher welcoming exclaimed to us, "Hello first grader's! Mrs. Doll will not be here today." All of us kids were sad that Mrs. Doll wouldn't be at school, but there was nothing we could do about it. So we went on with our day. The substitute acknowledged us to go on the carpet and that she was going to tell us a story. The sub read the first part and it
Andy told Jill, “Hey are you alright?you good, youwe should probably close shop until Lucy and shirlSheri get here.” Jill replied stubbornly, “No thanks i’m good, I can handle this. ”Jill replied stubbornly. SThen, she heard a loud sound come from the dining area, she found a customer on the ground next to a puddle of syrup. ,When she went to go help him but slipped alsoshe also slipped.
She says; “Hi! You must be our new student, Mikey.” Page 12… The principal walks me to my classroom and says; “Hello students.
When I stepped outside the school, the cool wind gently brushed my face. I walked to my bus, strutted up the bus stairs and took my seat in the far back where no one could annoy me. The bus ride seemed like forever watching the city go by, I was the second to last stop, but I liked being last it gave me more time to do homework on the bus. The bus came to halt in my neighborhood, and I walked off the bus towards the large house at the end of the street, the house was a massive, modern structure. I slowly walked in the house and plopped down on the white comfy couch.
Whispers were heard throughout the crowd, students conversing with each other. Mrs. Underwood still continues to talk through the students though. People were eyeing each other, grinning. They already knew what was going to happen. “Okay, pick a partner and come see me.”
At 5:45 AM the alarm on my phone blared some generic default tone that I had never gotten around to changing. This was probably the earliest I’ve ever gotten up in my entire life. I groggily removed myself from the pile of blankets on the floor that I had been sleeping in and headed for the shower, brushed my teeth, washed my face and searched my near empty closet for something to wear on my first day of school. Although I was absolutely exhausted and there was yet to be any furniture in my room, I was thrilled to be transferring to Pattonville High School in midst of my junior year and living in a bigger house in a better community.
Mrs. Coles did not tell me much about her siblings. She is one of six children, four girls and two boys. At the time it was normal to have multiple children, but people now have around two or three (on average). My parents for example had three kids. She said that they did not fight a lot as children.
Standing at the board, was a substitute. Everyone was shocked. As we finally settled down the teacher welcoming exclaimed to us, "Good morning first grader's! Mrs. Doll will not be here today. " Everyone was sad that Mrs. Doll wouldn't be at school, but there was nothing we could do about it.
As a child, I was an okay kid. I tried to be nice and polite to everyone. I was talkative with the neighbors and had a big group of friends. However, I did get into some trouble with those friends. I was vandalizing property and got caught.
On May 16, 2017 I interviewed Mrs. Newman about what it means to be American to her. Mrs. Newman is a Human Anatomy teacher who teaches at Anaheim High School. Furthermore, Mrs. Newman loves to teach about the human body and what are the pros about being the first to walk on Earth. Incidentally, Newman was relatable towards being an immigrant because she is from Thailand. Furthermore, Newman never really knew what to say about the country she lived in because her family had moved ever since she was a baby.
I woke up early and put on the clothes that I had laid out from the night before. I went to the kitchen grabbed a Poptart and headed out the door to find the bus coming up my street. Walking onto the bus gave me a whiff of Expo Markers and and an overload of Axe cologne that I’m guessing an awkward teenage boy showered in. I sat on the hard, poorly cushioned seat next to a small girl with pigtails and a Doc Mcstuffins backpack. Man, this is my first day of being in the Middle School; first day of sixth grade, I thought to myself.
Doll’s House by Henrik Ibsen was highly criticized for undeniably demonstrating woman’s issues in the 19th century. While the play doesn’t change setting much at all, Ibsen clearly focuses in on the characterization of three insightful characters: Mrs. Linde, Nora, and Helmer. Mrs. Linde is a minor character; however, that doesn’t alter her effect on the play. She provides the mold for the perfect, idealized wife. Nora, the main character, develops rapidly in the play, and her character is a stark contrast to Mrs. Linde.
Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House is a play set in 19th century Norway, when women’s rights were restricted and social appearance was more important than equality and true identity. In A Doll’s House, Nora represents 19th century women entrapped by society to fulfill wifely and motherly obligations, unable to articulate or express their own feelings and desires. Ibsen uses Nora’s characterization, developed through her interactions with others as well as her personal deliberations and independent actions, language and structure in order to portray Nora’s movement from dependence to independence, gaining sovereignty from the control of her selfish husband, deceitful marriage and the strict social guidelines of morality in 19th century Norway. Initially, Nora appears to be a dependent, naïve, and childlike character; yet, as the play unfolds, she appears to be a strong, independent woman who is willing to make sacrifices for those she cares about as well as herself.
Consequently, Henrik Ibsen’s play, A Doll’s House, added fuel to the fire that is the feminist movement. Ibsen’s character, Nora, illustrated the changes being made in society when at the end of the play she leaves her husband and responsibilities to become an independent person. Nineteenth-century Europe was changing slowly, but drastically, for women in terms of being able to vote, earn a degree, becoming physicians and lawyers, getting divorces, primary custody of their children, etc. Working class women found jobs in the domestic, industrial, and prostitution workforce, all of which treated them appallingly. Middle-class women had the money and time to be the angelic figure created by nineteenth-century European society by giving back to
In Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House he focuses on Nora and Torvald, a married couple. Their relationship is odd from the beginning when Torvald refers to Nora as his “little lark” (3). Later on throughout the play Torvald calls Nora other nick names such as his “extravagant little person” (4) and “obstinate little person” (5). His nicknames are a way of demeaning Nora due to the fact that she is a female.
In a sense, the play is a tragedy of the traditional society. It is a tragedy for the society represented by Torvald because that society had been confidently dealing with women in that manner which it regarded as correct and just. Now that a woman has suddenly given it a blow at almost its bases — the religion, traditional values, education, the institution of marriage, and so on — the society is facing a crisis, or a tragedy. If all the women, who are of course treated no better than this, do the same, the whole of the social system would collapse. And the impact would be basically the tragic destruction of the man's basis of happiness.
