While he was driving he would not speak much and if we asked him a question he would provide very short answers very quietly he avoided eye contact with everyone and would occasionally look up to watch and see what his brother was doing. He didn 't want to use any of the colored pencils crayons or markers that we had he brought his own little box mechanical pencils. He was very keen on the details I 'm focused on trying to get those and the best he could. He read you his hands about three times and his legs twice. He drew his face three different times but never added a third eye.

learned how to write cursive and now everything we write has to be in cursive. Except for math. But it doesn’t hurt to ask the teachers if we need to. I personally like to write in print rather than in cursive. “Of course you do. Everything you write needs to be in cursive except for math,” she responded. I mentally groaned. We have to do a lot of writing and it all has to be in cursive. My cursive was pretty nice if I do say so myself. Maybe my “s” is sort of bad because the loop part doesn’t…

Boredom Essay Reflection Before I had come to college and taken our Bored to Tears writing class, I really hadn’t thought deeply about boredom and searched into the depths of its meaning.

For the duration of the handwriting period, the teacher walks around and makes sure that each student is sitting properly and that they are holding their pencil and paper at the right angle. The few examples…
