It was the first book she had came across that interest her and that dealt with other children that were her age. This impacted her life majorly because she then went on to reading another booked called The Swiss Twins which mainly inspired her to read more books and eventually read for children in the library. It really made a positive turn in her life when she went to earning a BA in librarianship from the university of Washington Seattle. Then she got a job as a children’s librarian in Yakima; Washington, where she told stories to many children and out what stories and books they enjoyed reading
An artist born in the early years of 1931, Audrey Flack, known for being a phenomenal photorealistic painter, sculptor and printmaker made history with her beautiful art pieces. As a young painter she worked with mainly abstract art. She then grew up to be one of many photorealistic artists in the United States. She grew to be emotionally connected and had a true commitment to all of her artwork. She stayed close to her family most of her career, attending a high school in New York where she was born and raised.
I can honestly say that the teacher in the classroom did a great job with her students and I will be walking away with a bunch of awesome strategies and resources to take back to my own classroom to help with teaching reading and language arts. During this journey and through all of my observations, the teacher and myself had the same goal in mind and that was to make sure that we were educating the students to the
Embedded Assessment 1 I would like to introduce my mom, Cathy Patterson. She’s a molecular biologist, and went to Conestoga High School in Berwyn, Pennsylvania. I enjoyed getting to interview her because it let me get to know my mom a bit more, and made me realize what I have to do to do well in high school. To start off with, I asked her if she liked high school, and asked her to explain why or why not. She said that she had enjoyed being at high school, because she loved learning, and she got to hang out with her friends a lot.
Holding it is, like, ‘what?’ ” Frances credits her teacher not only for her notes in the margin in all six of those early drafts, but also for the encouragement to keep going. “I would have never imagined when I first started Western Civilization that that would have even been a possibility in all possible worlds, that I could write a paper that would one day be published,” Frances said. “She was just really encouraging with it and really supportive. I think having that support made me want to follow through even more. It made me feel like I could do it.” As she begins to think about career plans, Frances thinks she might want to play a similar role in the lives of others.
Next year I know I will miss the comforting feeling I receive when I walk into her classroom. It was an absolute honor to learn and work with Mrs. Perkins. No words can express how grateful I am for all of her hard work and effort. A good teacher is one that helps students to understand difficult concepts, but Mrs. Perkins is a great educator that not only motivates teenagers, but sincerely cares for and helps each of her students. Because of her, I am now able to thoroughly enjoy and understand music.
When she recreates this war in her imagination after learning about it, it shows how much the content in books spark her imagination. If she wouldn’t have read books about war, she would have never imagined the schoolchildren war scene in her mind. When she opens the book, she can imagine something new every time. It’s almost like she uses these books to create her own world of learning; she can “dream it all” whenever she wants. It is her own private world where she can learn all the information she wants, and learn it in any way.
Some instructional strategies that Mrs. Mills used in the classroom included reading aloud a picture book, guided reading sessions, and peer-reading. It was easy to tell that most of the students were receptive to the teacher and learning. However, I spotted one or two of the students just mimicking what other classmates where doing. Every one of the students I observed loved hands on learning, and Mrs. Mills took advantage of this every chance she could. She uses the constructivist approach to learning by using prior knowledge to enhance learning and scaffolding techniques.
Willa Cather was an extremely accomplishing journalist and author of short fiction novels also she was an English teacher, fraught with becoming a novelist (Arnold 2). It was just common sense that her long experience in newspaper work that Cather would start her occupation in journalism, though in the 1880’s it was unusual to have a woman in this field (Forman 3).That did not stop her though she kept on making more and more novels and short stories At a young age Cather wrote more than forty so tries, at least 500 columns and reviews,etc. even after she wrote novel she kept on making short stories (Arnold 3). Now only did Willa achieved myriads of things but she also gained awards as well. Willa Cather first received widely praise as an crucial author when Cather got the Pulitzer Prize in 1923 for One of Ours (Pollard 81).
She looked forward to the coming days when she could talk to the classroom at the local high school and share her stories. She'd become so much more than that young girl could ever dream of. Here she was a successful writer telling stories that made her far wealthier than she though possible. But the true wealth was in the journey and she knew and took it with her where ever she went. I Am I try very hard to remember everything.
