My Teaching Experience

My experience teaching fourth period was stressful and sorry to say but, it was also horrid. Most of the students were impertinent and offensive. When fifth period came I was glad I made it out of there with out having some sort of out burst. Other than that I was glad my partner and I got the whole lesson plan done because, it was truly confusing and somewhat difficult for us. I was also ecstatic to get the whole project over and done with because, quite frankly I was beginning to get pretty aggravated and exasperated with it. Other than the issues with the children in period four I think we did a pretty good job and apparently so did Ms. Priester. At the end of the period Ms. Priester told my partner and I we had done a good job and that lifted my spirits a little.

Paragraph to Persuade You to Read My Poem

The poem that my partner and I are teaching is “Same Song” by Pat Mora. People should read this poem because, it’s a good poem that teaches about, what many teens and youth are going through right now. Many youth members are not fulfilled with their appearance. They are not satisfied with who they are. They are not pleased, not the smallest amount, by the person they see in the mirror. This brings us to this poem. This poem represents not one but two teenagers of both genders who look in the mirror each day and see not the person that they were expecting to come in contact with. Many teens face this struggle everyday it’s not unusual but it’s also not okay. This poem will show people including youth that they are not the only ones feeling this way.

Third Quarter Goals.

Last year (2010), I had the idea that I was going to drop dead any second so I gave up. I stopped trying in school I stopped trying to deal with anything point blank period. I literally went to school to drool on myself, stare blank at the board, and of course to warm up someone’s seat. I didn’t do much and I didn’t make any accomplishments, because frankly, plain and obviously I had no goals whatsoever, but to make it through the day. This new quarter I unfortunately almost started the same, but a certain someone’s choice to give up on me suddenly slapped me in the face so hard I landed in reality. This person told me they would basically support me physically, mentally, and emotionally and then they walked away. This made me wake up and say to myself “Hey Chels, get real no one is going to help you if you don’t help yourself first!” and that is one of my main goals. I’ve put myself before everyone else, especially due to the fact that I don’t really talk to anyone on this campus. I’ve set my long-term goals and my short-term goals to help me accomplish my long-term goals. To accomplish my short-term goals, however, I just have to keep doing what I’ve been doing and that’s keeping focus in school, keeping myself out of trouble, stop my attitude and create a better atmosphere for myself.

Animal Farm to the Real World

A form of allegory that happens frequently in the real world that also happens in this story is betrayal and confusion. There is a scene in the story that implies that the two pigs Napoleon and Squealer have ran Snowball off and out of the farm. The two pigs are the malicious ones who are trying to take control over the farm and inhabitants. The two pigs accuse Snowball, the good pig, of being a traitor and a criminal. The things that Snowball is being accused of are false accusations. Yet they are being taken seriously for a while until the farm animals realize that the other two pigs are manipulators and are also very malicious. This scene in the story is similar to multiple events in life especially in adolescents. Young teenage kids in these days have their ways of manipulating, betraying, and being malicious. These days you see it everywhere people of all ages, sizes, and races are accused falsely or maybe framed. People do this type of thing to have others turn their backs on the victim. This is a form of allegory that happens in the story as well as in the real world.

“Animal Farm” Revolution at SPA

One fine and dandy day at SPA everything seemed normal and usual. Little did the staff and teachers know that the students at SPA had the whole day planned out to be unusual and devastating. The students had planned to force the staff and teachers to somehow run away from the academy. The morning came by and passed. Everything seemed okay until around noon things started to get out of control. Due to the students plan of dominating SPA. The students did things that were so gruesome that they must not be written. These brutal and cruel events forced staff and teachers and pretty much all types of adult to head for the hills, literally. A couple of days went by and SPA was a mess ever since the adults had left. There was no structure, restrictions, limitations, or rules. None of the students went to school because they did not care nor want to go and even the ones that did couldn’t, because there were no teachers in sight. A couple of weeks went by and finally the students who were responsible and cared decided to act. The responsible students took a SPA vehicle and ran away to social services offices and told of everything that had happened and was going on. Social services rescued the terrified staff and put the establishment back to its place the kids that caused chaos were punished and the kids that didn’t were rewarded. Then a couple of months later everything went back to normal and pretended nothing had happened.
