I grew up in a small church, where my mom was a Sunday school teacher and my dad was the Assistant Pastor. They also were involved in the youth a lot. Growing up, I can remember driving down the road on our way to church and seeing kids that knew or my mom knew and we would ask them if they wanted to go to church with us. Next thing you knew, we have like 5-6 local kids going to church with us. I can remember when we use to ask them where they lived so we could make sure that it was alright with their parents if they came to church with us and they would reply and say “My parents aren’t home they are working, they won’t care.” or “As long as I am not in the house, my parents don’t care.” It was very sad to hear that kind of responses. Then when it became time for church the next week, the children that we brought with us would come back, but they had friends with them. I was an only child, so most of the kids that came to church with us…
One of the most prevalent differences between cultures seems to be how the youth are educated. Concerning the kinds of material taught, the methods used to produce learning, and the relationship between students and teachers, education varies extensively from culture to culture. After reading Abubakari Lunna’s life story regarding his drumming education, it is evident that the way people present themselves has a lot to do with how we develop relationships with others. While I have heard of…

quality of the CCSS, its transition into school and how it’s affected the lives of students and teachers. This reform on education might have hindered the system…
I feel like if you, as a teacher, fail to bring out the quiet girl sitting in the back, then you did not do your job right in being a role-model. A successful teacher also includes all their students in school activities, and events that will happen throughout the year. The teacher has to create a positive community in the school to enhance the school as a community. It will be very difficult to connect with high school students, because they are in a critical time of their life, where they are…
The Development of Public Schools in the 19th Century Horace Mann once said, “It may be an easy thing to make a Republic; but it is a very laborious thing to make Republicans.”(Nasaw 40). At the beginning of the 19th century, the United States was far from the ideal model of a developed government. George Washington had completed his first two terms in 1797, as the first president. Leading into the 1800s, there were many issues that needed to be fixed before the U.S. could properly be called…

many of these students have not attended school prior to this school year. Therefore, many more students that may qualify for special education services may have not yet been identified. This poses a problem for the teacher as she may not be aware that some students need modifications or extra assistance. However, there are two instructional aides that provide extra support in the form of pull out groups to help students who are struggling with a particular subject. These instructional aides…
Atticus Finch v. Miss Caroline You would have a very difficult time finding two people who have similar goals to teaching but are so different it doesn’t even look like they’re on the same spectrum. But that’s just what you see when you look at Atticus Finch and Miss Caroline from To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. They are both teachers of a sort, with their own specific styles that do nothing but clash with each other. They also both have a lasting effect on the main character, Scout, and…
The Controversy over Teacher Salary Behind every successful lawyer, doctor, or pharmacist, there were teachers. These teachers come from multiple venues, but the two most common types of schools for our students are private schools and public schools. They both work in different ways with a different set up. Private schools do not receive government money and have to raise their own funds. Public schools are funded by the government through the federal state and local taxes (Allegretto).…
