Case Study On Tuesday, October 6th I conducted an interview on Judy, a sixth grade student in Mr. Clapp’s Language Arts class. She has an Indian background, however she is very much a typical middle school English speaking student. Judy has shares the same interest, lifestyle and dreams as the everyday girl growing up in America. Her experiences as a young child reminded me of my own. This student is driven with family support and shared dreams of her future. Judy is a student that would need to be challenged by her teacher so that she may achieve her dreams and continue to be a lifelong learner. Judy’s daily routine consist of waking up early every morning and fixing her own breakfast. After Judy gets dressed, she goes over her homework and studies until it is time to go to school. After school she works on her homework and likes to study. She attends a club on Wednesdays called Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA). She also likes to volunteer for elementary schools helping teachers or tutoring students. In her free time she likes to read. She explains that reading takes her away to another universe. She also likes to write. Judy says that when she writes, she feels in control of the story therefore she does not watch much T.V. Her family time consist of going to a theme park, the beach or out to dinner. I asked Judy what her …show more content…
She took out her journal and began to think. I asked Judy what she was thinking. She told me that she thought about writing as a way to escape from reality and form a world of her own. She then wrote down her thoughts. As she was writing, I noticed how sophisticated she wrote. Her terminology seemed advanced for a sixth grader. Her writing was clear and neat. She also demonstrated great grammar, punctuation and spelling. She wrote slow and took several breaks to think about what she wanted to elaborate on. Judy was unable to finish the assignment before the end of

The narrator states, “I think sometimes that if I were only well enough to write a little it would relieve the press of ideas and rest me (Par. 60).” Without this outlet from her mind, in the end, she ultimately becomes
This highlights the pressure that is put on her by herself to do well. It is just studying for a test, it should not be an that arduous of a task.

Judy Cloud is a 49 year-old legal assistant. She had visited tanning salons ever since she was a teenager. Like most teens who tan, she was not thinking about the long-term effects of it.

Judy Brady's essay illustrates how women are viewed in the eyes of men and what men think wives purpose is and their duties and responsibilities are. She uses a sarcastic and humorous approach. Her purpose is to show how women are stereotyped by men that men more or less think women are their slaves and need to answer to their every need. The author uses repetition and concrete words. She uses repetition throughout her essay with the words I need a wife. She is writing a descriptive narrative essay as a second person point of view to grab the attention of her readers also to make a point to them illustrating how men think women are meant to fulfill and serve all their needs even sexually. The descriptive writing pattern is used well by the
As a writer, she expresses her writing with her heart, mind, and soul. The truth motivates her to write and enjoys writing about her passions and likings. She has trouble writing things that do not have a connection to right quick with her.
If she was free to express her feelings, she wouldn’t have had to shove them aside and try to find other things to occupy her mind with. She finds greatest comfort when she writes, but her husband believes that it is bad for her to do so because it is too stimulating. She makes comments many times expressing how writing makes her feel better, that it would “relieve the press of ideas and rest me” (349) and that she “must say

This confinement of her imaginative prowess makes the narrator more helpless and isolated. The only thing that narrator really wants to do is ‘writing’. She perceives that pen down her thoughts and ideas would give her a sense of ‘self-actualization’ and ‘self-expression’ and even could help her cure herself. She says in this respect:

The classroom follows a partial day inclusion program. Ms. Welsh’s classroom on the second floor of Village School is considered their base area. The student’s belongings are all kept in the classroom upstairs and they spend the majority of their time there throughout the day. All students are taught by both teachers for math, science, and social studies. For reading and writing, Ms. Wilush teaches three students in a pull-out resource room on the first floor of the building. When it is time for students to review those lessons, the three students make their way down to Ms. Wilush’s classroom with the folders and other materials they may need.

As we drove up to Grand Island Senior High School, I could not believe my eyes at the size of the school. The towering, brown building towered over the surrounding area and seemed to only get bigger as we entered the doors. When I entered the milling commons the wide array of races danced through my vision as I heard the chattering of several different languages all around me. After talking to Mr. Hester I was relieved to hear that we would have a guide to navigating the maze of hallways. Once I was shown my first classroom, I meet Mrs. Kurz who was teaching a freshmen English class, and she was kind enough to walk me to my second classroom with Mrs. Kier and her sophomore theater class. While we were walking Mrs. Kurz informed me that during
