Linda Albert (2012) mentions for students to experience a strong sense of belonging in school, they must satisfy Cooperative Discipline’s “Three Cs”. The Three Cs are Capable, Connect, and Contribute. “Three factors affect students’ ability to satisfy the Three Cs in the classroom: the quality of the teacher-student relationship; the strength of the classroom climate for success; and the appropriateness of the classroom structure” (Albert, 2012). The best way to satisfy the Three Cs through the use

My Professional Philosophy Statement I believe the purposes of education is to teach the children to do the best they can at everything they do. It 's important to let the children know when they make mistakes to learn from them, and to let them know that they will be loved, even if they make mistakes. Each and every child should experience a positive approach of teaching from mistakes rather than negative. As children no matter the age they remember things; wouldn’t it be better for them to

Suicide, it's looked at as a joke, the coward's way out, and even as a false attempt for attention. See it as you want, but I saw it as a way to leave everything behind and to never have to look back. The one choice I wouldn't live to regret. So in August of 2014, I made the attempt to flee from my problems, past, and suffering. The plan was simple, overdose and never wake up. It wasn't that easy for me though. When I was in the middle of my actions, my mother walked in. Her reaction was exactly

Libby Streeton- Irrational thinking is common in a nuclear war, right? Why did I expect Fin and Max would change their minds? I begged them through a river of tears to stay with me. But that was not enough. I can’t adjust to reality, watching their lanky bodies fade in the distance keeps reminding me of the fate of their lives. Max is only 12, too young to witness violent and unforgiving deaths of innocent citizens. What happens if I never see them again? I assumed I was doing right but apparently

I had a child in my classroom that was having some issues with transitioning between activities. When it was time for him to stop playing to clean up he would cry and say “NO”. I’ve attempted to rationalize with him, I explained to him that if he played with the toys he was responsible for cleaning up. Then I would point out that his other classmates have cleaned up, but that didn’t work. I also demonstrated to him what needed to be done by showing him how to clean up, but he just said “ I DON”T

“I better get there before it’s too late.” Ji Hye mumbled to herself. All she want to do now is rush home, where her mum would prepare for her a cup of hot chocolate while making dinner. Just the thought of it make Ji Hye want to run straight home, but she have to visit her sister first. Ji Hye hasn’t seen her sister for the months, that’s why her mum ask her to pay a visit and bring a few side dishes. Her sister, Jung Ji Hyun is a college student who is living on her own now. Whenever Ji Hyun visits

While essential secrets focus on creating boundaries and protecting others, toxic secrets tend to do almost the complete opposite. Toxic secrets are usually kept from those that have a right to know or should be informed of the secret. This, in turn, causes a lot of disruption and tension in certain relationships. There are several different reasons why people choose to keep toxic secrets from their family members, friends, coworkers, and others in the outside world. Most of the time people feel

I see the sweet, alluring flowers in the crammed valley. The raw herbs itch my legs, satisfying my pleasure with bliss. Picking from the sticky weeds, I find a handsome blossom and add it to my assortment. I glance to the town as the people worship me with the joys of Spring. I grin in satisfaction and love. As the day grows old, I sigh in content. My delight and basket overflow with hard work. My legs covered in bug bites and cuts from the overgrown grass. The once white dress is now bitten by

"so you're leaving?" autumn asks playing with with her bracelet looking at the ground. Could this get any more awkward? the air buzzes with quite Christmas carols on the old radio behind her. "Yeah, but we'll keep in touch right?" Nate asks quietly, messing with a string on the worn couch in her living room, before reaching into his pocket to remove a small gray object. “I’m really gonna miss you bringing me cookies for breakfast” Autumn looks past him at square box under the tree. Don’t cry

Months ago, down in Galveston, Texas, my life changed. The first time since his sentence I saw him, yet his last sighting. I am Tod Hinrichtung, and, yes, the last name is German for execution, ironic isn’t it? Today I will finally meet the one I called father, for the last time. His sentence was prolonged for five years. Now that it’s here, I can’t believe it. Mother being gone since birth, and now this, how am I supposed to feel anything, other than sadness? Word spreads quickly when your father
