META-COGNITIVE OBSERVATION The meta-cognitive observation was conducted to an 8 years old student in Grade II. Before asking the child to repeat the 10 words that I will say‚ I conducted an interview with the child. Usually‚ a child can not express their ideas easily. The most common words they use are “yes”‚ “no”‚ “I don’t know”. They also don’t do well in answering the question “why”. For example‚ when I asked the child question like “why do you like to read?” he answered “I don’t know‚ just

Understanding Language Importance I have lived in Mexico for the most part of my life and I also lived in the United States a couple years ago; language was never a barrier to me since I knew enough english to get around even if I was not sure if I was saying everything the correct way‚ I never felt intimidated by language until I arrived in France‚ at first it was very hard for me to get around due to the fact that I only knew a few words in french like “merci”‚ “mon amie”‚ “Je te aime” and

Nature is very beautiful. Sometimes it is hard to realize the true beauty of nature living in New York City. We are often too busy rushing to get to work or to school to be able to stop and stare at a garden full of colorful flowers and flying bees surrounding them‚ transporting pollen from one to another. Our lives are too hectic to sit in the park and enjoy the cool breeze or take time to soak up the sun. We get annoyed when we are awakened by the chirping of birds singing to each other at sunrise

When I am concentrating on the view outside‚ a short white boy in oversized red shirt and black cap hums as he paces towards me. He sits next to me

Days of Old When Knights Were Bold Growing up‚ I was never that girl that fantasized about becoming a princess and meeting that special prince that would sweep me off my feet and save me from all misery. Even sorcery books such as the Harry Potter series did not appeal to me. I did not believe in any of that quirky fantasy land stuff so the idea of being dragged to the Michigan Renaissance Festival with my family over Labor Day weekend did not appeal to me; I would have much rather been out
