Ms Pedone Reflection

Review and revise an individual’s daily plan with the individual and others to increase the opportunities for participation

On Tuesday, March 1st I had the honor of attending Toni Preckwinkle’s discussion on Cook County’s progress towards improving public safety and health. Toni Preckwinkle is the Cook County board president and had much knowledge to share with Benedictine faculty and students. She started off talking about public safety and information about cook counties jail. I was shocked to hear that there are ten thousand inmates in cook counties jail as of 2013. Out of the ten thousand many of them are held for nonviolent crimes. She claimed the reason for there being a large amount of inmates is because people do not have enough money to bail themselves out of jail before their hearing. Due to some of them not having enough bail money, they spend many unnecessary

This semester I learned a lot about writing in English 151. It has been a roller coaster ride with these essays for me this semester. I learned step by step how to write a good essay and how to have your readers be engaged in what you’re trying to tell them. Each essay I did has taught me something valuable I can take to the next level of English. I feel as if as the semester went by I did not take my writing that seriously and that reflected in my grades I received in each essay. It made me a better student and writer and it will reflect next semester. In this essay, I will reflect on what I learned throughout this semester that you should apply in your writing when you begin English 151.

This piece of work allowed me to reflect on a number of internal and external issues. As Mrs. Gallop’s life revolved around cultural identity and ethnicity, the interview helped me analyze my own perceptions on the matter. The obstacles in Mrs. Gallop’s life were significant. However, her resilience and ability to recover are truly motivating. Nowadays, so many people give up on their dream, ideas, beliefs, and loved ones because of the circumstances or inner inabilities to either understand or forgive. Therefore, I felt privileged to have an opportunity to conduct this interview.

The goal from last week was reached, all the steps and attending to the nutritionist presentation were completed and the information from the nutritionist was great. One of my biggest challenges is the crazy schedules that my wife and I have, it is always something that we have to do after we get home from work, the kids always have after school activities and takes a lot of time and resources to make it to all their activities. This week goal is to create a family calendar using an app where we all can view each other schedule and we can enter appointments, after school activities remotely and from different devices. I think this will help with the crazy schedules.

Welcome back, Cardinals! It’s that time of year again, and besides the freshman, there are a lot of new faces in the halls this year. Keep your eyes out on thebeakspeaks.fyi for feature stories on each one our new teachers this year. There are new teachers who are fresh out of school and into their own classrooms, and also teachers who are new to WCHS from other schools. The Insight staff will be updating the new site constantly, and we are looking forward to a great year! One perfect example of a new face in the school this year is Mr. Pettit.

During the panel with Ms. Downing, I could tell that she knew a lot about Wesleyan, and that she genuinely agreed with the institution's goals and ideas: and at one point even mentioned the university's mission statement. I find it very appealing to know that she has experience working with first generation, and low income students and her current place of employment, seeing that here at Wesleyan a significant portion of the student body falls under at least one of those titles. The initiative she has created to help foster a community of financially literate students, is incredible in my opinion: and it must be noted that this program is going to be led by a student. While it has taken about a year to find, a qualified student to do so, the fact that she is having a student have a leadership position in such a essential outreach program, for a lack of better terms, is so Wesleyan.

This past week you've probably heard about Lexi Anderson around school. She has suffered from a serious heart condition and is in dire need of a heart, the support has not only spread throughout the school but throughout the community and has been talked about on the news.

My favorite moment in the story is just after the Wallses leave the Arizona trailer park at the beginning of the book. I like this part because it is before Jeanette realizes how messed up her family is, and she is happy to drive away with her family. Rex makes everything seem like an adventure, and at this point Jeanette believes everything her father says. At the end of Chapter Three it says, “I told Lori how lucky we were to be sleeping out under the sky like Indians” (Walls 18). This shows how Jeanette blindly follows her father’s lead. The reason this is my favorite part is because it’s one of two points in the book where Jeanette is truly happy. However, Lori is old enough to realize that her parents live very differently from everyone

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I was not able to submit my revised proposal over the weekend. I am applying finishing touches to the document and hope to have it ready this week. Revising and editing my proposal has taught me something I was not aware of, something that I took for granted; what you want to achieve becomes clearer when you revisit the problem and question your assumptions.

As a new person to PwC, there is lots to learn as it relates to process and procedures. While Hemali is not my assistant, she has proven in my last two months of working here to be an invaluable resource and support. From the very first day I started, I've found her approachable and accommodating. Specifically in sourcing items and showing me how to execute some of my administrative responsibilities. Recently, with very little notice, Hemali accepted my invitation to her to facilitate a one-on-one tutorial on the MRBS (meeting room booking system). I consider her a good trainer - she was generous with her time, was thorough and thoughtful with her explanations, and went over and beyond by providing end user tips as well as helped me book several

I enjoy having in class speaker for the fact they offer so much experience and knowledge. This, I find true especially in nursing; nothing can quiet replace a nurse with years of experience. Because of this I was excite to hear from Sharon Sielman the Chief Nursing Officer at Central Maine Medical Center. Yet, when thinking about the presentation in reflection I had more negative takeaways than positive ones.

During the production “Carrie” I not only observed the wonderful performance put on by the McDaniel crew, but I also watched and studied the movements of four different characters.

When I was a teacher for elementary school, we had a policy that if a class’s teacher absent, another teacher should take the class and let children do their assignments. So, I was one day in a class that I did not know the students, then I asked them to do their assignments or do any hobbies. While I walked around I saw a kid that drew a picture of a family that a mother and father were playing with their son and other kid was looking at them and he looked sad. Then I asked the student some questions about her picture; who is this family? Then he said “my family” then I said “so you are playing with your family aren’t you” then he said yes? Then I said so, who was the other kid that was looking to you? and he said that was me, then I was surprised. And I asked him “how?” Then he said “this family was the family that I wish, because my family is very busy and I feel lonely at home and no one cares about me” From this story the child used his imagination to tried to make change of his life by thinking about his problem with his family and how could it be solved. He tried to use his hobby which was art to transfer her feeling and to reflect on his life. This story crosses my mind when I read about Maxine Greene’s argument. In this paper, I try to reflect on Maxine Greene’s argument about “curriculum and Consciousness. I will clarify her major argument, its goals, and its solutions. I will also explain my point of view of her argument by supporting that with several

Over the last couple weeks, I have had the amazing opportunity to work alongside Alex, Shaun, and Lance at the Center for Bone and Joint Disease (C.D.J.D) in Hudson Florida. I consider myself extremely fortunate for being assigned this clinical location because I have been exposed to so much in such a short period of time. Not only are Alex, Shaun, and Lance excellent radiological technologists who are eager to share with me everything they know, but C.B.J.D. Hudson is incredibly busy because of how many patients are seen there every day. This has given me countless chances to hone the skills I have learned in the classroom and has quickly shown me traits and skills I have I am proud to call
