Analysis Of 'Out Loud' By Gabbie Hanna

Michael Gow’s “Away” is an Australian play, set in the summer of 1967-68, in a time of great social and political change. “Away” tells the story of three families, each from different social classes, living in suburban Australia, as they each embark on their own holiday, attempting to escape their underlying personal issues. Immigrants Harry and Vic love their adopted country but are constantly faced with their son, Tom’s, terminal illness, while Jim and Gwen fret over their daughter Meg’s blossoming independence and her friendship with the socially unsuitable Tom, and Roy is unable to console a grief–stricken Coral over the death of their only son during the Vietnam war. Although each family is completely dissimilar, the theme of love remains

This song is worth listening to due to the fact that you can connect it to many other tough situations. The lyrics are quite general, so it does not necessarily have to be about the ending of an intimate relationship. The listener can connect with this song during many other hardships.

Sean Reardon of the Center for Education Policy Analysis wrote, “If we do not find ways to reduce the growing inequality in education outcomes – between the rich and the poor – schools will no longer be the great equalizer we want them to be.” President Obama’s “Race to the Top” policy will perpetuate race and class inequality in America’s education system. Low-income students as a group already have poorer academic performance, grade point averages and standardized test scores, than higher-income students. In “Ain’t No Makin It,” author Jay Macleod depicts the Adjustment Class taught by Jimmy Sullivan as an example of how “culturally responsive pedagogy” can motivate students academically while helping them maintain their street identities. The Obama Administration’s 2009, "Race to the Top" competition has been greatly damaging to lower income schools around the country, by enforcing policies that making it much less likely that students will have minority teachers with shared backgrounds like Jimmy Sullivan.

This theme is brought through the song by showing multiple literary devices. Such as “I'm the one at sail, I’m the master of my sea”. This metaphor shows the realization and empowerment that oneself can give in a depressing situation. This simile “Falling like ashes to the ground, Hoping my feelings they would drown” compares his feeling of sadness and depression to ashes, and wanting them to drown and vanish, from his life. This line, “All the hate that you’ve heard has turned your spirit to a dove” explains how all of the hate that he has experienced and gone through has turned his feelings around, and decided to look on the bright side of things. Personally I think this is a great

“In this world, friendship is a weapon, and the sting of a shout pales in comparison to a day of someone’s silence. There is no gesture more devastating than the back turning away” (Simmons 3). This quote from Odd Girl Out by Rachel Simmons shows that girls don’t show aggression in the same way guys do. Girls use the power of their relationships to bully others. Rachel Simmons was once bullied herself. She never spoke out about it or tried to figure out why it was happening. Now having grown up, she sets out to talk and listen to females of all ages to figure out just how many of them have been bullied or have been the one to do the bullying. She interviews girls from different schools asking about their experience with other girl bullies. Two of these girls, Vanessa and Natalie, both said they

Though every word should be used, many of the more interesting words fall into disuse. Similarly, many people go through life without being acknowledged. A word to describe these demure people who have no one to dance with and are usually alone is wallflowers. In her poem “Wallflowers,” Donna Vorreyer expresses her idea that every word, like every person, should be welcomed into people’s lives. Beginning with a cherishing tone and then one of concern, she entices the audience and highlights the importance of unused words. She aspires for people to employ unused words in their lives. Because Vorreyer uses an extended metaphor, a direct juxtaposition, and a subtle shift, she illustrates how people need to make room in their lives for things that go unused.

I have chosen to read the book "The Quiet Room" by Lori Schiller. I truly appreciate books that allow me to see what it's like in the shoes of someone with a serious mental illness. This is based on a true story of Schiller's personal struggle with schizo-affective disorder. This book relates to my life because of how I deal with mentally ill patients in my work everyday. The story left me overwhelmed by the serious emotions and terrifying journey that this woman persevered. "The Quiet Room" is a testimony of how schizophrenia can affect a person, involving auditory hallucinations, delusions, and experimenting

I hear you Hanna. I remember how hard it is beginning on the road and you have people watching your every move. I thought Cris was very creative in the way she handled the young lady at the beginning of the Chapter 1. It is extremely hard to demonstrate classroom management strategies in addition to teaching reading strategies while you are beginning observed by twenty teachers. First, she built a reluctant relationship with the student by acknowledging that the girl had a legitimate claim about the book boring. She continued by sharing why reading the book was relevant for the student. Why did this girl need the information? What was the pay off for the student? Cris was able to think on her feet in front twenty teachers and pull that student in without escalating the problem and causing farther embarrassment. The amazing fact is that the girl, who attends an alterative high school, complied with Cris and joined the lesson. This girl acted out in front of twenty teachers without reservation. She was exceptionally daring. She could have easily gone a different way in terms of her behavior towards Cris.

“Never Cry Wolf”, by Farley Mowat, uses a lot of anthropomorphism. We see wolves as bloodthirsty savages that prey on the weak, cause havoc, and kill just to attack or to start a fight. Quite the opposite, the wolves only kill for food or when under attack. Their actions are based on their needs. Contrary to the wolves, humans hunt for food but they also do so for pleasure. In reality, the wolves just do what is needed to survive. The author studied the wolves to further document the truths about the lives of wolves and his use of anthropomorphism bring this book to life. It is ironic at times as the similarities between the wolves and humans are few yet the contrasts are many.

There are many ways in which one can analyze poems with similarities in subject. However, one of the most effective ways is to analyze the poems use of imagery and figurative language that the author uses to dramatize their subject matter. Three poems which can easily be compared through this method are the songs Roar by Katy Perry, Stronger by Kelly Clarkson, and the poem Breaking Free by Angela Wybrow. These three poems all share a similar topic, which is inner strength. Through this topic, the authors use figurative language and other poetic elements to create a work which centers around the theme of finding inner strength to move on from the pain and hardships caused by people in their life, and to move on and live the life that makes them happy.

Aguilera song is not really about being sad or depression. Her music video and effective use of ethos, pathos, and logo are to help us realize the importance of people around us, especially family. What happens if one day the people we love mot go away? You might live your life thinking about a way that you could had done something more for them.

This very slow song, so in my opinion I think it reinforces a sense of bittersweet, because even though she mentions how she wants to be remembered for the good things that she did she also mentions death and regrets in her song.
