Personal Narrative: Just Being Outdoors In My Classroom
I lace up my walking shoes and head outdoors in my neighborhood. I enjoy being outdoors looking at the trees, neighbors' plants and flowers, ducks swimming in the creek, and squirrels scurrying up the trees. Just being outdoors, helps me forget what is bothering me. Saying "Hello" to other walkers make me smile. When I arrive home from my walk, I feel refreshed and I have a feeling I can tackle

    I've never been an "outdoors" experience kind of person. Maybe, it's because I'm very sedentary and prefer to stay inside to read and enjoy tranquility. I avoid all types of chaos and crowded places. Nevertheless, my visit to the Camuy River Cave Park (back in 2004) was refreshing and enriching in knowledge, historically, scientifically and spiritually. That experience brought the best out of me, as a human being and a nature lover, by giving the chance of experiencing a whole new level of peace and tranquility.…

    (More dramatic beginning) Choking and laughing through the cigarette smoke as I sit around the smoking area listening to the seniors tell their crazy drunken stories and cat call at the numerous ladies. This is the dream for any freshmen, but not what I expected when I was thrust into Younglife weekend camp January of my freshmen year.…

    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.…

    Growing up I spent most of my childhood in Vietnam living an ordinary life. My parents were not risk-takers until they decided to quit their career as educators and move to the United States. Knowing that life in America will be challenging for immigrants, we mentally prepared ourselves to be fearless and get through every obstacle that is in our way. No matter how prepare we were, being a newcomer was frightful. When I first step foot on the land of promise, there was a mixed emotion suddenly rushed through me as a signal telling me life here will not be easy. We faced will endless obstacles and the language barrier is the most, the biggest challenge for us. Personally, I think learning a new language is difficult and requires a lot of hard…

    Today I taught my second lesson at Frontenac High School. I don’t feel that this lesson went as well as the first. I started class by going over the take-home assignment from Tuesday. The students were more talkative today and didn’t seem to want to pay attention. I think this was because they didn’t have school the next day. I would stop and wait for them to focus back on me.…

    I own learning was associated to reading the research papers of the other M.Ed. students, as well as through the summative evaluation done by my principal. Reading the very diverse research papers, I gain wonderful information of things I could (and will) implement in my classroom with my ELs. Some examples are related to the use of journaling for various learning opportunities, how big is the influence of motivation in relation to Hispanic males finishing high school, as well as the importance of analyzing prescribed curriculum in order to organize scaffolding activities that will assist ELs. The other learning was connected to the summative evaluation in which my principal mentioned things that I have done throughout the year. He was…

    Once I regained my consciousness I found myself in the seat replacing the pale man from before. I noticed a change on my hands. I was no longer brown-skinned, but pale. Deathly pale. Just like the man from before. Perhaps, even more pale. Or maybe it was just the contrast from my original appearance.…

    Waking up to an average morning walking outside in the crisp morning air to get breakfast for myself. After I ate I headed for school to finish those standardized tests at the end of 6th grade. So far my class did well and was eager to get them over with. While I was in my zone working on the test, I could hear the clock ticking away every precious second passing. I had to get done with my English test before recess. Finally I looked at the clock and the time read 1:53 pm, just with a few minutes to spare, I finally had finished my test. I was glad that one was over with, as I raced home to grab a quick snack before I had to return to school.…

    I can remember the day when I first went to school at victor harbor primary school. It was scary because I didn’t know anyone at all. The first couple to of days I was nervous and scared because I didn’t have much friends and I was still trying to settle into the new school. As I got to know a few people I got a bit more confident and started to do more things with the people that helped me around the school and became good friends with them. Their names were Jacob, Taylor and Boyd. Starting school at victor harbor primary in year 7 was weird for me because at my last school I started high school in year 7, so moving to victor harbor meant that I had to go back to primary school again. As time went by I made a few more friends and started to hang around with them at lunch and played some games with them. I was only at the primary school for a term but It gave me enough time to make some friends before I went up to high school.…

    I am not an outgoing person. I am extremely shy. I have terrible social anxiety. On my first day of high school, I was marked absent for my first class because I was too scared to ask anyone where it was, and too scared to ask anyone for a map. Freshman year was not enjoyable due to theses reasons - until my introverted self stumbled across a call board in the director’s classroom for anybody interested in joining the invigorating world of speech.…
