Skinny As A Chopstick
I am at Gage Elementary School. Home of the Gators. Everything is green and white. That’s all I think about when I first hear “Gage”, but specifically where I work is at Mr. Johnson’s and Mr. Kramer’s classroom, which is assortment of different colors. One side of the room is green and yellow/gold and the other is purple, yellow and white. They have passion for football, but they are at opposing sides, which I think is pretty funny. Like rivals working as a team. In the classroom, the kids they teach are pretty calm and they can follow directions pretty good too. Kids raise their hands and answer the questions happily, but not who I picked. I picked “Skinny as a Chopstick”. She does very well with the questions by herself, but when she is in

    On Wednesday, April 7, 2010, I was blessed with the opportunity to sit in on a Mathematical class at John F. Kennedy Middle School in Riviera Beach, Florida. This was an opportunity to observe the function of a core class at the school that I teach and Substitute for. The teacher’s name was Mrs. Minor-Walker, which is one of our 7th grade teachers. When I walked into the classroom, I shook her hand and informed her of what I was intending on doing today. She was more than glad to assist with my assignment. These students were seventh grade students. This was an intermediate class, in which most of these children have encountered some sorts of issues with comprehending Mathematics prior to this year. Due to the…

    I observed Mrs. Ball’s 7th grade science class at Helen Tyson Middle School on Thursday November 5, 2015. The classroom had a great climate and was decorated with interesting scientific educational material. She had the desks set up in organized rows with two kids per table. This set up allowed for less interaction between the kids because they were so spaced out, which seemed to keep them on task. The dynamics in the classroom were great. She connected well with each student and was interested in what they had to say. She was very in control of the class and the students seemed to respond well to her. The students interacted pleasantly with one another and were were all very welcoming. They came into class, sat down, and got right to work.…

    In this lab, I played with a group of children when they were representing different characters. The children represented the Zompies character, and one boy came to me and said, “I will eat your hart”. Also, they played Ninga and they hide their faces. I helped the teachers to organize the classroom, and sat with the larger group when they play. I tried to help the children when they had conflicts with other peers and give them simple and clear instructions. In addition, I did a lesson plan to the children and they have to manipulate their hand by using clay to create their first letters, and I think they had interest with it.…

    Blue made sure to see that the students were receiving positive feedback. When each of the students entered the room, they retrieved their binders and all sat down quietly. Each of the students were very respectful to each other in that whenever someone raised their hand to speak, they were the only ones who spoke. There was no character development program or a posted set of rules displayed in her classroom. In her classroom she did the majority of the talking while the students listened and answered her questions. In the high school classroom, there was quite a bit of talking and disruption among the students in the beginning. There were many students who were up and walking around while he was discussing the homework. There was no character development in the classroom. Mr. G didn’t seem tell really be listening to his students, one student had to repeat his question three times. Each teacher provided a way to show respect and understanding to their students, and then the other showed a class room that didn’t have much respect for each…

    In this cartoon. the teacher is seen in all black clothes, she has a long nose, and she has the biggest smile on her face. The school board tells teachers what their students need to learn by the end of the year and it becomes the teacher's job to carry that job to teach the students. Although sometimes teachers understand that it takes a bit longer for a few students to fully understand a topic, some still fly through the subject so that they have enough time to fit others in. Teachers often have to teach the kids the same topic, the same way. The students are given the same worksheets because teachers do not make the student their own specific lesson, due to the fact that it would take to long. It affects the children because some students have an easier time learning by hands on activities, instead of sitting in seat and taking notes the whole period. However, other students may be able to take notes and be fine. As seen in the cartoon, the children are not smiling or laughing, instead they are frowning while writing on paper. This lets you know that those kids learn better by physically doing activities, especially kids in lower grades.…

    Slender Man

    Slender Man is extremely long and slender, hence the name, and has four to eight long tentacles, or arms, that protrude from his back. Because not everyone reports these tentacles, it is theorized that Slender Man can contract them. These arms stretch to inhuman lengths, putting victims into a hypnotized state. Slender Man wears a suit and has a pale, ghostly face which appears to be wrapped in a thin layer of gauze. Perhaps the scariest aspect of Slender Man is his location; he stays in the woods near suburbs to be closer to the children.…

    The students judge John on being the bad boy, menace, and bully. He does act like all of these things at the beginning of the movie, but with bringing out the other kids insecurities, and making them all feel uncomfortable with the things he says, he faces his own home life reality of being abused by his father. The abuse he is receiving at home is making him act out in school, and put up the act of being defiant, and bad. All of the students have a preconceived notion about Andrew because he is a star athlete, he has a perfect life. The reason he is in detention is because he injured another student. He did this to try and impress his father; he also says he joined the wrestling team because his father wanted him to. So essentially he is just looking for acceptance from his father and is willing to go as far as hurting another student to get that acceptance. Brian is known as the nerd, or the brain. He is in almost all of the academic clubs and does great with his grades in school. He says his parents push him very hard to maintain his grades and tell the others that he would rather kill himself then get a failing grade. Which his why he is in detention. Allison is the quiet one. She starts off by not saying much of anything. Then she opens up with the group saying her family ignores her at home, and would rather be at detention because she has nothing…

    There were two Caucasian students, seven African-American students, and six Mexican students. Mrs. Brodie was the teacher and Ms. Johnson was the teacher assistant. The classroom was large and there was plenty of space for the children to move about. The classroom structure was very similar to that of the 3-year-old classroom that I observed in my first field observation. There was also a carpet on the floor for circle time and the classroom was divided up into centers as well. The centers were clearly labeled. Some of the centers included reading, art, science, manipulatives, and blocks. As I stated before it was very similar to the 3-year-old classroom set-up. The classroom was filled with print and there were many different aspects of cultural references which included posters in the Spanish language and books that represented the different diversity of all of the students. The classroom was like the 3-year-old classroom amplified. I am thinking that maybe because the school is state funded that it why they do have so many more materials than a regular preschool classroom. The science area even had a telescope in the center. The children knew what it was and what it was used…

    Adolescent girls engage into conversations with their peers at school or other outside school such as the mall or the movies about the latest gossip on their favorite celebrity, singer, and the latest fashion trends. By adolescent girls engaging in conversations with their peers about their favorite celebrity they are more likely to be influence by the thin beauty model or desire to be thin because of the perception of the media, influence of teen magazines and peers. Mass media has its way of creating a powerful message that targets adolescent girls that being thin is the only way they would be accepted into society (Dohnt and Tiggemann,…
