I have the opportunity to reread what I have written and then make corrections so that the point that I am getting at is full understood by the reader. I learned to do this from trial and error. I found that more people understand my writing as opposed to me talking directly to them sometime. C) Some symbols that people use to communicate are Morris code. They also use sign language.
I gave more details about the relationship between MacFarland and Mike. I also included Ken into my summary to help with the confusion of who he is. I also reworded sentences that were confusing.

Not only is he growing up, but he is trying to save the innocence from reaching the maturity. I did not think I was this kind of person until I learned that I did not like seeing my friends transforming into new, but older people. I can definitely call myself similar to Holden, although I do not ostracize myself from other people, we both try to hold on to our innocence and others’ innocence. This essay motivated me to save people from going into the bad side, because after all high school can determine lives. Theme Analysis This year, English II class explored many themes through books and movies.
Terrenc Why I enrolled in JROTC I originally enrolled in JROTC because I wanted to try something new in high school. I did research to find out what the program was about. Once I completed my research I found out a lot of information that tell what JROTC is. I also talked to family members that were once a part of JROTC and found out more things that online research does not list. There really were no cons about JROTC.
I had a reason to do my best and she brought that characteristic out of me. Even better than being rewarded for memory was when I learned to have fun while learning. The most prevalent experince of this for me was in my tenth grade year of high school in America. I moved to America and thought I would not fit in with society. However, when I started school I integrated well with the other students and found that many were interested in my Hatian culture.
So when I am talking with my friends they are constantly asking me what these words mean as they do not know what they mean. For different groups of people, I tend to use a variety of different dialects. For example, if I’m with my peers or my friends and something is happening I would say “Wass appatainin?” which in the Queen's English means “what’s happening?” On the other hand when I’m talking to my parents, I would tend to use what some people would call “proper” English, because my parents are always correcting me on my grammar. Following on from how I speak when I’m with my friends, according to some of my family and some of my friends, apparently I have a different tone of voice when I’m speaking to different people on the phone. For example if I am talking to family and friends from the area where my family comes from, Merthyr Tydfil, I talk with a very strong Merthyr accent.
Understanding Social Psychology Ashley Cusson PSY301: Social Psychology Professor: Lalain Williams December 6, 2012 When I started my social phycology class at Ashford University I had no idea what to expect. When you start this class the best advice I can give you is to keep an open mind. A lot of the things you will learn will seem like you already knew them but when you think about it, it’s that you knew about their definition but not what they were called. The class will give you a better understanding of the world around you and the groups that are in it. In this paper I will try to give you an understanding of what to expect from the social phycology class you are about to enter.
I think I added some parts to my speech in the moment that were not in the plan without even realizing it. Next time I hope to be more fluent with the wording of my speech and to keep it simple so I am less susceptible to stress build up throughout the day of the speech. I got more of a reaction from the audience with some parts of my speech this time around, which was one of my goals from last time because it strengthens the connection between the audience and I. I think some of my classmates may be able to relate my mission trip experiences to their own lives, which promotes active listening. Peer critiquing is the key to active listening and I remember the speeches that I peer critiqued more than any
What I found odd was that my studying method changed when I came to high school. I obviously still studied and applied myself, but my mentality was not the same. To this day I cannot figure out why that did happen but I plan to go back to the mentality that I had when I was in grade school for college. The library will become my new home since it pretty much has everything that I need to study and finish the work for my classes. Along with that, I also plan to either find a study buddy from each class or form a study group.
I allow them to talk to find out all the details before asking them questions and allowing them to respond. I always tell them to think about it with a clear head before answering me and tell the truth along with the whole story. By the time we are done having a conversation about what happened in school or home we have gotten to the bottom of the problem and where it all started and now have a solution/resolution to the problem.
