Why Geography Matters… More Than Ever Why geography matters More Than Ever was an informative book written by Harm de Blij. Harm wrote this book to give people reasons why geography matters. This was the hardest book I have ever read; it was full of facts but could become very boring at times. This book taught me a lot of new thing and showed me that geography really does matter. I am glad I read it because it taught a lot. Before we start talking about my review of the book we should first

Reflection paper Stand and Deliver The movie Stand and Deliver takes place in the lower class part of Las Angeles. When the movie starts you see the teacher driving down the street‚ and you begin to notice graffiti‚ closed shops‚ poor people‚ and gang members.

After viewing the Stand and Deliver movie‚ the one characteristic I believe the most instrumental and important in Escalante’s success as a teacher was passion. I totally agree with Richards when he stated‚ "Great teachers have a passion for teaching. When a passionate person teaches‚ others feel as though they are communicating the most important truths one could ever hear." Escalante’s students responded to his animation and life that he brought to the classroom. Some Bible teachers should
