Lorey Behave In School: Personal Narrative
The way Lorey behave in school was not good at all. I believe a lot of kids don't behave well in school. I think a lot of kids in the world would totally bhave just like Lorey. Lorey made up the name and the person “ Charles”. He only did that because he was afraid of getting in trouble by his parents. He didn't want his mom to find out that he was “charles”.So what he did was tell his parents that “Charles” did not behave in school that day. This book makes me feel good because i used to behave just like charles when i was younger. I thought I was the only one that behaved like that. Now I know that I am not the only one. Some kids were just scared to tell their parents that they didn't behave in school. They only lied because they didn't

This story teaches us how we can be nice to others and to go and make friends, also it teaches us not to leave people out. Like Squeaky I sometimes get nervous trying to talk to someone I’ve never met. However I learned to go up to people and be polite and not to be shy around others. It is important in life to learn about this, and that if you live your life not talking to people and not being friendly, you won’t have any fun.

    “Skrt skrt!” The brand new 2003 minivan door slowly slid closed as my mom held my hand. My first day of kindergarten started walking through the rocky terrain up to Jacobson Elementary School on a hot, summer morning. Prepared with my lunch box full of goodies and plaid backpack weighing me down, I walked through the gates to the kindergarten playground. My mom helped me find the girl I met on “Meet the Teacher Night” and stayed close by as we played in the ant-infested, wood chip playground. Then suddenly, in the middle of making a wood chip pancake, the bell rang as if it was taunting me, I knew what was about to happen and so did my mother as I watched her face droop more and more as the bell rang it’s three chimes. My mom walked with me to the wall my teacher designated as the wall to line up on. My hand started to constrict around my mother’s as we approached the wall, as we got closer my knuckles began to turn white. My teacher, Mrs. Priest, announced it was time for the parents to leave.…

    Laurie lied about who Charles was to be able to talk to his parents about something without them knowing that Charles did not exist and the he was the one committing all of the acts that were claimed to be Charles. Laurie had lied about Charles in every scenario that had truly been him, both positive and negative, this means that Laurie had lied to his parents quite a lot, making himself a rather large liar. One of these many instances occurred when “Charles yelled during story hour and hit a boy in the stomach and made him cry.”(347), once again lying about who had really completed those acts. Even so, Laurie’s mother still found out about Charles at the PTA meeting when “ No one mentioned Charles” (349), and after confronting the teacher learned that Charles did not exist and that Laurie had committed all of the misconducts. This reason shows that Laurie is a liar as well as a misbehaving attention seeker and shows how he had…

    Williams Elementary School is located just off of interstate 75 and home of the mighty Eagles. From the outside it has the appearance of a typical school with screaming students, rushing parents, and screeching buses. It is made out of boring brown bricks and beige stucco boarding near the top of the building. The inside features a prison-like setup, only with more vibrant colors. There is a double door leading into an office with multiple faculty and staff. In order to actually enter the school, you have to be buzzed in by the round and hyper man at the main desk. Once in the building, you will see that it is shaped like a large square with hallways extending from four sides. The hallways are full of colorful painting of eagles, laminated…

ASB has always been dominated by white students and as a Latina, I found it very intimidating when I joined.…

    After reading this book I have come to know myself better than what I had before. Even though throughout the book I was embarrassed by some of my reactions and answers to the mind boggling riddles that I was so quick to judge on. I would rather know that my hidden biases exist rather than unconsciously pretend that it isn’t there. At least now I can take responsibility for my actions and do what I can to change my hidden bias into a…

    I was the kind of guy who always strove in order to get the highest grades but yet hadn’t decided what to do in the future. I wasn’t worried, I knew someday I would find something in what I was good at. I got to live with that thought for some time until I got to attend middle school, where I stopped worrying about my grades and managed only to pass the subjects. I spent most of my time sleeping due to the frustration of not knowing what to do in the future. Most of my middle school experience was tasteless. I hadn’t friends at all, and teachers used to discourage their students about their future. “You're not going to college, you’ll not be able to do it because you’re poor” used to say, Mrs. Vazquez, the math teacher who instead of giving her class, talked on how much his son had accomplished in college and how we would not be able to attend. That was about to change.…
