In New Jersey, there are a set of teaching standards that all teachers must follow in their classrooms. Standard 2ii5 states, the teacher understands that learners bring assets [and liabilities] for learning based on their individual experiences, abilities, talents, prior learning, as well as language, culture, family, and community values. On the other hand, standard 3ii2 says, the teacher values the role of learners in promoting each other’s learning and recognizes the importance of peer relationships in establishing a climate of learning. In this paper, I will be talking about standards 2ii5 and 3ii2 and how they relate to the novel The Pact. The Pact talks about three young doctors and their journeys in getting there. All three of the

The Other Wes Moore introduces the lives of two boys with similar traits that would one day have different outcomes in life. As one begins to read the novel the clarity of their situation becomes evident, it is to an extent appropriate to conclude that both Moore’s lives were similar during their childhood, but certainly it was their mentors that guided them to different paths. Although growing up near each other and both being residents of the Baltimore county their influences were shaped from early on. The other Wes Moore was subject to failure because he himself was surrounded by bad role models including his mother that despite wanting the best for his son didn’t do enough to alienate his son from the streets. On the other hand,

Through Wes Moore’s The Other Wes Moore, the author tells the story of himself and another man with the same name and a strikingly similar upbringing. In chapter 6 it is revealed that the parental and authority figures in both their lives greatly affected and shaped who they became.

For a story by an author to be signified as a classic literature piece, it requires a timeless feature which the main passage can echo throughout the ages. Particularly, a relation to society's behavior and values. The characters, created by Washington Irving, most especially Tom Walker, gives us an insight on how his life centered predominantly on wealth up to the point where he is consumed by temptation. Tom Walker’s engagement in a deal with the Devil portrays how money-driven society has become more prominent through the times of the 1700s and today's world.

The movie “The Doctor” takes an intimate look at the life of a surgeon who is immensely detached from his patients and often acts callously towards his patients and even his family. The arrogance and heartlessness that are seen in the beginning of the movie slowly become subdued when Jack McKee finds out that he has a malignant tumor. The diagnosis of the life-threatening tumor forces Jack to reevaluate his life and in turn allows Jack to see life from the perspective of a patient. The differences in McKee’s character are abundantly evident but one of the best examples of how much he truly changes are how starkly different the opening scene in the surgery suite is as compared to the final scene in the surgery suite. When the movie opens

There are many young aged kids and teens who experience bullying, some of them bullied for their appearance, some for their popularity status, and others surprisingly let themselves. However, it’s pretty doubtful anyone really knows why a kid would let themselves be bullied. Author Gary Soto developed a short story called “Fear” designating bullying with no specific theme but made to feel the anxiety or agitation of its presence of danger, pain, and evil. This author's breathtaking story is about a young 5th-grade boy named Frankie T. (F.T) with many things gone wrong in his family/life. Those things turned him to be a bully and later someone who would drown their own brother in a pool, and beat a woman with a lengthened pipe in a burglary years later. Frankie T. is an interesting character that can be better understood by examining his Character Traits, Contributing Factors, and his Motivations.

The book chronicles her relationship with Augustus Waters, who has also been diagnosed with cancer. Throughout the novel, Hazel constantly struggles with her identity in relation to her disease.
