Mr. Teddy
Standing in the hallway as my father talked to my new kindergarten teacher, I was nervous and scared like any other child my age. When my father was done talking to my new teacher, he pulled me off to the side and asked me how I was feeling. Not words to respond with I hugged his leg as tightly as I could and refused to let go. This only made my father laugh; he told me I had nothing to fear because I was going to have someone special with me. Looking up at him with puzzled eyes, he smiled at me kindly and slowly brought out a bear that was only slightly smaller than my chest and waist. As soon as I hugged the bear to my chest I knew that everything was going to be alright.
As I familiarized myself with my new brown furred companion, my father told me his name and his history in my family. His name was “Mr. Teddy” and looking at his red bowtie I could understand why (It made him look like he was a super spy. I’m sure if he could talk he would introduce himself as “Teddy… Mr. Teddy”) Mr. Teddy was originally a gift from my great grandfather to my grandfather back when he was a small child, which in turn, he gave to my father, who then passed it on to me. I examined my companion father to discover that we were very similar in appearance, yet completely different. His eyes, even though they were a deeper shade of brown, were similar to mine. Along with his fur (I don’t have fur, but my hair) was a similar shade of brown too. Except for the obvious reasons like he was a bear, and was filled with stuffing. The only differences between us were his coal like black nose and a red rose colored bowtie. From that moment on, I knew I would never have to worry about being alone again.
No matter what happened during my child hood, wither it was helping me save my family by beating up the monsters in my basement. Exploring the dark and spooky area’s around my house or protecting whiles I slept during those extra dark

For some reason, I kept fiddling with my fingers, I was really nervous to see him. We took the exit 31A and we all shifted to the left since it was a sharp turn to the right. My big sister, Maisie, was on my shoulder and we shifted her head fell on my lap. She woke up and asked where we were. “We are almost there Maisie” my Dad said. We stopped at the traffic light and I fiddled with my fingers some more. “Stop fiddling with your fingers!” Maisie whispered to me. In my head, I say “I can’t, he is the first boy of the family, the first! Besides me!” I stopped fiddling and looked at the huge structure in front of me, The Holy Cross Hospital.…

    This day was like any other day. I had gotten off of the bus and was getting a ride home from my dad like usual. I ran to my room to play for an hour and there I discovered this giant cylindrical object at the end of my bed with the words “Lincoln Logs” on the side. I opened it up slowly, not knowing what to expect, and discovered it was full of small brown logs that smelled like they had just came out of the forest. After my initial shock was gone, I started to try to put them into a house and they magically fit together. It amazed me, and it also relates to things I hold dear to this day such as my extracurricular activities and relationships.…

We cried out desperate prayers while the raging storm pounded our pontoon boat like a boxing match. My grandfather maintained the courage and strength and proceeded to steer the boat in the horrific scene.…

    As I was getting ready to be in the parade, the seamstress was telling me that the doll I was going to carry had arrived. When I tried carrying it, I could barely hold it up. I was a small young girl and I was expected to carry, what felt like an eight pound doll, over the course of about two hours. As the seamstress ironed the last piece of the dress, she picked up a pair of real pearl earrings that were enclosed in a small, soft, blue velvet box. As the needle pierced my earlobes, my ears instantly felt like they were as heavy as the pressured feeling in my heart, because I had an important task I was not prepared for- I was going to carry a heavy doll that symbolizes Jesus as a baby, for a long time, while standing on a moving vehicle, and I did not want to let it…

    It was the night before my first day of kindergarten, and I was as anxious as ever; I was ready to learn all about the alphabet and the many different letters that were a part of it. My mom had told me that school was the place where I would learn these, and I thought school would be the best thing to ever happen to my life… little did I know. My first day of kindergarten, the teacher told us everything that would be going on for the year. I was just waiting for her to say "learning how to write the letters of the alphabet." Suddenly, those words finally sprang from her mouth, and I just about jumped out of my chair. I didn't fully understand why I wanted to learn to write; however, whenever the topic was brought up by someone, all I wanted was to magically know how. It absolutely intrigued and thrilled me that people were able to use these things called letters to communicate without speaking. My teacher really made me excited to learn the…

    I moved into my home when I was about 4. They house we used to live in was going to be too small once me and my sister, Mira, got older. I was very sad that we were leaving the house I had lived in my whole life. I had many fond memories for it, such as my dad building a playing structure for me and my sister. I remember thinking that I had a say in which house we were going to buy, and I thought that I had a part in making such an important decision, which I know now is preposterous, but I felt proud to be making choices. I remember missing my old house, with the play house that my dad made, and the stairs up to my bedroom, which seemed so tall. This new house had no stairs. I remember meeting our new neighbors, Manny, who really like vintage pinball machines…

    The child I chose to observe during the course of the semester, is Theodore, also known as Teddy in the classroom. He is in third grade in class 3-221. He is a male and nine years old. He is currently attending the school P.S.225, which is located at 1075 Oceanview Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11235. I chose Teddy because he really stands out in comparison to the entire class. Teddy is very cooperative and is a pleasure to have in class. I think he is very smart, always eager to participate. The entire class is filled with cute little third graders who are all smart and capable of doing what the teacher asks them to do. In my opinion, the work can be quite challenging at times since common core asks for the students to put in more effort.…
