This song hit home to be because one of the first concerts my fiancée and I ever went to was for an artist that Luke Bryan opened up for. He was a no name back then, but this was his hit song at the time. My fiancée and I sang the song, off key, at the top of our lungs, and just laughed the entire time. It was a great night for the both of us. After that song he sang his biggest hits which made the crown erupt in hoots and hollers.
Toni Hall September 18,2012 Writing Bill Nedrow I had to cope with being the new kid at two different schools. At my first school I didn’t know anyone, the environment was different, and they had us working. At my second school I knew a lot of people, I wasn’t use to the children behavior, and events happened that I never experienced. Switching from school to school is very difficult. The very first high school that I attended was Christ The King which was a catholic school, and because I was the new kid I really didn’t know anyone.
It will be difficult to avoid subjectivity based on my previous experiences in the field. I know that students with special needs have a particularly challenging time getting through school. My appreciation for this has changed over the past two years. I don’t believe I have the capacity to be a special education teacher, but I will always make time to help and would certainly encourage my students to be a part of anything that is happening in special education. I have assisted with children on all ends of the spectrum of Autism as well as one with Cerebral
Final Ethnography Baruch College has always been known for its ethnically diverse student community. The school embraces campus diversity initiatives as they are believed to have a positive impact on both majority and minority students. I believe higher education has an extremely significant role in fostering diversity, yet, the importance of multiculturalism is still neglected or completely ignored in some universities. In order to prove the importance of campus diversity, I will attempt to fully investigate the following thesis statement: Multiculturalism in Baruch College has a positive influence on students and helps its community to prosper. One of the key supporting elements of my thesis derives from the students and staff members directly involved in the diverse environment.
Through our program, we had to have several “workshops” with the guardians each year. It was always hard to try to teach a grown person set in their ways that yelling at their child, was not the correct way of discipline. When working in today’s public school systems, often times, actions get scrutinized too much. Telling a child that you love them might cause someone to raise their brow. Children need praise and love.
A perfect example of diversity in college is the amount of clubs and programs available. From Asian clubs to math clubs, even gay/straight alliance clubs, the number is quite endless.
One of my potentially greatest unique contributions to the college community of North Carolina A&T State university is the ability to create relationships between people of similar and/or diverse backgrounds, and a desire to understand others' ideas and beliefs. When people hear the word 'diversity', they often think two dimensionally. It’s a concept often thought of in terms of nationality or socio-economic status. I believe the true meaning of diversity is not simply about skin color, economic background or the face value of any other characteristic, rather it is the increased knowledge and understanding of other people gained from unique experiences. The strength of diversity then comes from having many points of view and trying to reconcile them by finding common truths or
The place where I know I’m most welcome Throughout my life I have faced a lot in school and it was not only academy wise there were more to it, I used to be blamed for things I don’t know about. However I learned how to make all bad things good things and make the best out of it all. I realize that difficulties can make you accomplish a lot in your life without you fighting back. I move to America three years ago and came to the country with no idea of how the school system works and I did not have any idea of how they teach students differently. Trying to achieve what I want in life is really hard all I know is that I have support all the way to the end.
Solutions for problems like these are hard to come across, but if people took it upon themselves to try to educate them self by reading and writing more than they do it would help them in the long run. There was a table “From Reading at Risk” by Shea, Scanlon L., and Aufses presented that showed how many people actually take the intuitive to read for the purpose of educating their self. The people within the school systems should take a look at all of the problems with the Education system. It all starts with the adults in charge. Not every parent has the financial Stability to send their kids to schools with great education programs, as shown in waiting for Superman.
Though I felt uncomfortable moving frequently, it made me learn to avoid attachments to my surroundings. I felt like I had nothing to hold on to anymore; it seemed like I would have to leave everything behind again. Despite the challenges, these events also brought me to a positive realization of what is important in my life, one being my family. When we lived in New
