I thought that this was an interesting read because I probably would naturally think that preparing my child during the summer, for the upcoming year would give them an advantage. The evidence author Gibbs presents suggests the contrary. She finishes by saying “I wish that I could have that time back to be a youth without the strains of work and school”. I completely agreed with her take.

It’s kind of crazy how stories you read can bring so many mental pictures in your mind of things you can relate to it. In Bobbie Ann Mason’s story, “Being Country”, I related very well to the country style of living. I, myself, lived in a very small country town in Texas, and know people just like the “country people” noted in Mason’s story.

Further research indicates that economically disadvantaged students are more susceptible to summer learning loss, as they make equivalent achievement gains during the school year; they tend to lose more information during the summer (Huebner). Cooper further contributes, “Differences between classes contribute to the findings, due to middle-class students having a greater opportunity to practice and read in the summer.” Students are always going to have limitations on opportunity. Those who are poor should not have to suffer academically because they do not have means to stay on track. There are multiple approaches to limiting summer learning loss within students; however implementing a year-round schedule

1. According to Grossman, the “virus of violence” is referring to the increase of murder, attempted murder, and assault rates in not only America but many places around the world. Although the population has been increasing, both the assault and murder rate are significantly high. Grossman quotes, “Today, both our assault rate and murder rate are at phenomenally high levels. Both are increasing worldwide” (Paragraph 6) Then he continues giving examples of the rising assault and murder rates in different parts of the world.

And if you can not hear it, you will all of your life spend your days on the ends of strings that somebody else pulls" (Dean of Chapel, Howard University 2017). From this quote, I grasp that listening plays a large role in how we grow within ourselves and also as a community.
