The Importance Of Learning Experiences In My Life

When I was around seven years-old, my twin brother and I were called downstairs by my mother to have a family meeting. It was then in the kitchen that she decided to tell us that we were going to have to move because my father had been offered a higher position in his company but to obtain that position we had to move to Atlanta. At first, I laughed it off, thinking my parents

A couple of years later when I was in second grade my family just returned from a cruise,and my mom took a pregnacy test, causing us to figure out my mom was pregnant. A couple of months later my mom took me and my granny(she was visiting at the time)to this place that does baby related things including figuring out if you were going to have a boy or a girl.My mom did that and guess what!I was going to have a baby sister!Also they had these things called Heartbeat Bears which are stuffed animals that made a heartbeat sound recorded from your baby,two of those, a whale for me ,and a bunny for my sister.

This may not seem like a big issue but it affects my life dramatically. Growing up with two older sisters has been the best thing I could ever ask for. We fight a lot over the simplest things but they are the best friends I know I will have forever. They have always had my back no matter what and support me in everything. But, they’re growing up. My oldest sister, Brooke, is 20 and has been going to community college by our house. But this year she is transferring all the way to Santa Barbara. She has been in Colorado for work and her friends and it has been really hard because I miss her and didn’t get to see her for about 3 months. Having her go to college 5 hours away for a whole school year is going to be very difficult to get through. After that she is going to have a life of her own and that is hard to accept. My other sister is 17 and is a senior at MC. I know I still have one more year with her, but it is going to be sad when she starts talking about colleges and then leaves. I am not looking forward to being an only child in a house that usually is never

Many people in history, as well as my mentors, have influenced my personal learning philosophy about early childhood learning.

I found out I was pregnant in the beginning of grade 9, it came as a total shock , I didn't know what to do. I knew my parents would've been furious and disowned their daughter as total whore. The father was a one night stand so I didn't have his phone number and when I finally did reach him and I spit out the words "I'm pregnant", he ran. I have never felt so alone.

Being the eldest often sets the standard of what will be expected from all the siblings, and in cause motivates the pursuit of perfection, or creates a hard work ethic. For me a hard work ethic was the lesson learned, and the lesson my parents drove. Having the chance to learn here in the U.S. meant that so long as I did good anything was possible, and when I showed promise in my education, my parents were glad. Yet that wasn’t my only responsibility, since a young age, I was entrusted with being the medium of communication in my family, and being a source of information.

Boom, I wake up in the morning and see my mom opening her mouth over and over again. I was as slow as a sloth, I could barely move. Oh my gosh, I completely forgot that I had a religious event in Chicago today. My mom asked me if I wanted to go, I wasn't sure, so I just said yes. I think I was thirteen at the time. I got ready and soon after, we left the house.

I am now the oldest out of four siblings. Therefore I am a role model for my younger siblings. I will be the first in the family to attend college, and with hard work and devotion it will be a successful experience. My college experience is not only for me, it’s also for my siblings, so they will want to follow the

Since I was a young girl, learning was something necessary to do in order to mature into my own self. It's something us as humans do to evolve from our younger selves. From learning to talk, walk ,and read we learn many things throughout our lifetime to be the person we are today. Learning is the key to life. Learning makes us progress. Riding a bicycle was a learning experience that I might never forget it.

My big sister moved away when I was 6. So for most of my life, I was an only child. Everything was mine, and my parents were very involved in my life. Then, there I was, 10 years old, and my parents handed me a note that read of my mother being pregnant, I had thought about this. Eventually, I actually got excited. It was lots of fun throughout the journey, but a month before my brother was supposed to be born, my mom went into labor.

Participations in small in-class groups which purpose was to accomplish a task assigned to us by our Professor, were the most powerful learning experiences for me. In developing common focus, as stated in Gitterman and Germain (2008), members need to establish group rules and also remember to “build on one another’s contributions, identify and focus on salient collective themes, invite expression of differences” (p. 174), as well as welcome opinions which are contradictory or different from the majority.

I regret to inform you that I am not able to brag that I have been at Peirce my whole learning experience, all eleven years of it. I went to Families Together for my two years of preschool, and started my journey at Peirce in kindergarten. I am pleased to say that Mr. Wanberg was my kindergarten teacher, although his room wasn’t as big as Ms. Fabianski's. I can still remember how we learned to count by 1’s and 10’s and 5’s, the way he taught us that “look” was spelled with two o’s (he made the o’s into eyes, and he’d ask what word was on the board. We’d all say, “Look! Look!”, and he would respond, “Where? Look where?”), and the pirate that lived in the cabinet. It was kindergarten, so addition to outdoor recess we had play time in the classroom. There were stations and to get to a station you had to grab the correlating tag before they were all taken. I remember I’d always love to go the writing station, where I’d make up stories and draw. Mr. Wanberg helped me progress in my passion to write, even as a kindergartener. At the end of the year, he gave me a book of writing prompts, The Mysteries of Harris Burdick. The story goes that a man named Harris Burdick came into a publishing company with 14 titles for books, a picture and a caption for each. He told the company to contact him if they were interested in the books, but when they tried to, he never responded. The book is the 14 titles, pictures, and captions, waiting for a story to be written around them. Even to

In the tapestry of life, I’ve have accustomed myself with people from diverse colors of race, textures of belief, and patterns of culture. Different threads of individuals with their unique life experiences have surrounded me in my every stage. Each relationship has woven me into an expressive piece of fabric that refuses one-dimensional uniformity.

While I am impressed with how our group performed, I would propose a few changes if I were to do it again. After our group chose the community, it would have been helpful to have a meeting before we actually visited the community to establish a plan on what we wanted to do during our visit. At this first meeting, I would have proposed appointing a leader of the group. This could be anyone that stepped up to the job and could reached via a consensus. Moreover, a leader would have been helpful in making decisions and would have the final say in our decisions, research, and presentation style. Having someone specifically to assigned this task would have helped solve conflict, make decisions, and be more effective

One of my memorable moments would be the day I found out I was pregant! I actually didn't find out till I was about 4 months. When I went to the Dr. office to confim my pregancy and it came to be positive, I was just in total shock because I actually never thought that at 19 years old going on to 20, I would be having a baby. I had mixed feelings. I was sad, overwhemled, but I was also honestly very excited. I was carrying a little person inside my womb.Right after about 1 week after I found out about my pregancy, I had my very first appointment to check on how the baby was doing. After anxiously awaiting, it was my turn to go inside and find out how the baby was doing and also finding out the sex of the baby was very exciting. Once I walked
