“Okay students the eog’s are in 4 weeks!” said MS. Casey. I wasn’t worried at all. I knew I was going to ace this, for sure! One thing, MS. Casey doesn’t. Ever since my dad joined the army, we’ve been moving around the whole United States. I was never able to make friends, if I did, we’d always moved a month or so later. I stayed quiet, and people didn’t want to be friends with quiet people. Since I was shy and quiet the teacher thought I was dumb even though I wasn’t. There was 3 weeks until the eog’s. We were in math, with MS. Casey, and the she called on me to answer a question, “Kassandra, what is ½ multiplied by 8?” I was so scared I didn’t even remember my name. My hands were shaking like a big, angry rattle snake, schish schish shish. I didn’t know what to say so I just acted like I was sleeping. I snoored louder than a furry, gigantic grizzly bear during its hibernation, zZzZzZz. Ever since that day she hated me, for some weird reason. The teacher called my mom and said, “Hello, I called to tell you that your daughter is a …show more content…
Cynthia said she wanted to do a project with Taylor and me. It was a paper airplane project and we loved paper airplanes! She said that we were supposed to make a paper airplane and design anyway that we wanted. Then fill it in when things you think it will be able to do. Then fill it in with things that we think we can’t do. I said that my paper airplane will be able to fly and one day becomes an actual airplane for US airlines. We tested out our planes and mind didn’t fly. I was sad, very sad.Taylor sad, “Don’t worry. It just takes time and practice”. It was the eog’s day or what I like to call, Game time! I felt confident in taking the eog’s and passing since Taylor trained. She said that she also feels confident in taking the eog’s since I trained her. Ms. Cynthia was also confident in us. Then we took the test. We got the test results a day before the last day of school. Taylor and I
Crackle, pop the fire sounded as I placed new logs on top of the hot embers. This was the fire the children of my village sat around and told stories before they went to sleep, and tonight was no different. All of their eyes stared at me expectantly as they waited for me to start telling them a story. “Two Rivers Running, tell us the Story of the Great Battle again,” the little ones asked. All eyes were on me as I sat down next to them, everyone silent as I told them the story of the Great Battle.
For my week 2 24-hour recall I interviewed my husband E.S. During a conversation held with E. Salcedo (E. Salcedo, oral communication, September 2015) I was able to gather that he is a 42-year-old male Mexican American. He currently is working with machinery and doing maintenance work at different power plants. Furthermore, E.S. job requires heavy lifting and going up and down stairs. He recently started running and exercising three times a week.
You Choose I have never had a teacher who has ever despised me as much as Mrs. Nelson, my fourth grade teacher at St. Francis Elementary. Day in and day out, she insulted every part of my being. The problem was I could never figure out why, but this was the very reason that I learned so many lessons from her ire.
Day break and they were at it again, Mrs. Ortner was making her rounds on the bus handing out study material for all competitors for you guessed it, another study session. On the bus, in the airport, on the plain, and on another bus never has a group of high school freshman studied so diligently. After being settled into our hotel and getting a good night’s rest the chapter woke for breakfast only to find hundreds of other students there to compete, this made that nervous tension just a little stronger. The rest of the day was filled with motivational speakers and icebreakers.
I pulled out my phone and started to dial my mothers number when I heard footsteps approaching from behind. “excuse me,” said the softest voice I had ever heard in my life , she continued. “Do you know where the nearest movie theater is?”
A Stolen Sibling The words of my book looked as if they were sliding slowly of the pages, the teacher called out “Just a couple more minutes.” How long could that be? I just couldn’t handle it. Finally, that high pitched elementary school bell rang after a whole painful two minutes.
When I was in kindergarten, I did not have friends; my highs and lows oscillated on the approval of others who understood me even less than I did myself. For picture day, I remember being happy to wear my favorite shirt: a Strawberry Shortcake blouse with ruched sleeves. A girl deprecatingly told me I looked like a little kid. I never wore the shirt again. Although I already felt like an outsider, the situation worsened when I moved from Las Vegas to Hawaii.
I used to be so oblivious. I would attend school every day and criticize my surroundings, little did I know how much I actually had. Come junior year, I observed a flyer for a club called S.A.L.T. (Student-Athlete Leadership Team), it seemed interesting to me so I decided to fill out an application. During our first meeting at 6:45 in the morning, Coach Jones, the head of the club, explained, “I did not cut anyone since you will cut yourself, you will give up and you will not want to put the work in, so you will stop coming.
Justin Barragan ERWC P. 5 Mrs. Scharf 11 April 2017 Integrity The foundation of the house is what will set the course for the piece that follows. The groundwork that my parents and ancestors have laid out for me to follow and guide me onto the right path. On both sides of my family, the major cornerstones are to serve and or give back to your country. Every male in my family in the past century has been involved in the military or served the country to assist those who serve. My dad’s father fought in the Korean War, while my father himself had fought in the Vietnam War.
On yesterday, I did not have a substitute for my class. So, Thea Johnson was asked to watch my class. As Thea walked through my class, I began thanking her. She mentioned jokingly, “She haven’t had her medicine, and she didn’t want to be bothered.” She told me I had to do something about by “crazy students” and I better have some work.
“Class we have a new student here, joining us today,” said my teacher. My mouth dropped open as I saw her walk in the room. Not only was she African American, but she also only had one arm. A hundred things ran across my mind that could have happen to that child. Mrs.Lucy, our teacher babied her all day long and she got all the attention from everyone.
I quickly finished tying my shoe and hopped onto my purple mountain bike and we were off. Logan my brother who I love sometimes,Cassie My best friend, Easton Cassie’s brother,Sawyer Cassie’s brother, Mr. Wychers and I were going to ride our bikes through a trail off in the woods and go to Whistle stop and then cut through town and head to Houseman's. The sky was cloudy and the daylight was being blocked by a thick dark cloud, which looked a lot like a rain cloud. We started to cut through a dead cornfield, lifeless tall brown and crusty plants sat in a single spot and as the soft wind blew the once luscious herbs. I felt the dead greens slap me in the leg and burrs got stuck to my pant leg.
The school invited us again the next week to watch the children race their
Ah yes, the age of fire. Perhaps you’ve heard of it. Gwyn, god of the light, slayer of Dragons, and the sworn protector of the First Flame. “Make haste… Make haste, my warrior of fire, ashen one, Rogue. I order you to slay the God of light, as he has gone Hollow.”.
Running Head: FIELD EXPERIENCE JOURNAL Field Experience Journal Mary Ellen Masters Georgia Highlands College FIELD EXPERIENCE JOURNAL Field Experience Journal In order to gain vital experience in the teaching field, I volunteered to work at West Rome Baptist Church’s Vacation Bible School. Although this setting was not in a school, the characteristics and guidelines were the same. Beginning at nine o’clock in the morning on June twenty-sixth, I, along with many adults and about a hundred children of all ages, gathered in the sanctuary of West Rome Baptist Church. The kids were assigned groups based on gender and grade level.
