One thing that I learned this week was the overall affect of school cancellations on the class syllabus. Mr. Allen 's strategy for me is to teach every day, but to use the majority of his content prepared and lesson plans. However, with that being said, Mr. Allen and I have gone through each and every day to plan the lessons until March 6th, which is when I leave.

An example of such acceptance can be the pattern of individuals who completely ignore groups around them by staring at their phone; compared to those who strike conversations with people they haven’t met before.

Personal Strengths and weaknesses Writing about my personal strengths is a challenging task that requires me to focus on the strong points that make up my character. While, however; speaking on my weaknesses, tend not to be such a problematical task. Trying not to speak in such a modest way about oneself, yet present an encouraging outlook on my strengths, require me to examine what skills makeup the positive force that drives my everyday being. However, to attack my weaknesses, is to challenge

flaws is what Pinker defines as the imposter syndrome. Imposters tend to ignore all of the positive events and achievements that occur this shows that no amount of success will ever show them that they are worthy. Research showed that women have a tendency to need to know that they are 100% correct before they answer a question whereas men tend to only need to be about 50% sure and will bluff the rest.

In his article, “Some Lessons From The Assembly Line” Braaksma (2005) asserts that the typical college student feels that their college education should be tailored to their sensibilities for scheduling as well as the expectation of outputs. Not knowing how easily one’s fortunes can be reversed, Braaksma’s peers moved through their education with the belief they were above the daily struggles commonly seen in the blue-collar workforce.

Reading and writing are a big part of our life, it doesn’t matter if we just read the headline of the news, or the signs saying railroad crossing ahead or forms for work. Writing, on the other hand, is similar, people write daily without even realizing it, for example, writing for class, filling out a form at work, or just writing for pleasure, it is all part of our daily lives. Even though not realizing how big of a part reading and writing has played in my life I have slowly started to acknowledge

In today’s society, women take an enormous role in every aspect that tends to contribute to help stop all the crisis that are currently happening everyday.
