How do the traditional gender roles we put on people in the 20th century affect how women and men see themselves now and during the 1940’s through the 1950’s. During World War Two tend to think of only men serving when that was actually not the case in World War Two ” some 350,00 women served in the armed forces.” In City of Thieves by David Benioff Vika,Kolya, and Lev all serve in non traditional roles.

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.

It is not a physical mountain that Liesel has to climb, rather a emotional mountain full of rocks that tumble down the steep slopes trying to knock her off every time she stops moving forward.

The strengths, weaknesses, and backgrounds of these supporting characters encapsulate the idea of buddhism throughout the novel, and by including them and Xuanzang the book is able to summarize the idea of buddhism.
