    Fun, laughter and family are the first thing I notice when I found “Where’s Jamela” by Mr. Niki Daly. The story is about a single mother moving to a new house and her six year old daughter wanting to stay in the house that she loves.

    It’s only natural to keep vivid memories of certain monumental moments in life, such as the first day of school, for a long time. “The First Day” by Edward P. Jones tells the story of a mother and daughter on the daughter’s first day of school. In the beginning of the story, the mother goes to great lengths to prepare her daughter for this important occasion. After the preparation is over, she takes her daughter to a particular school before being told that she is in the wrong school district. They are directed to the correct school and that is where the daughter is registered to attend. However, the mother is not able to fill out the registration form because she cannot read or write. Along with love, pride and shame are also expressed in the story. Throughout the story, the author uses imagery, irony, and descriptive detail to convey these powerful feelings. Although love and shame are almost completely opposite on the spectrum of human emotion, Jones suggests that they run parallel to each other.…

    Many different characteristics define leadership. Integrity, the second letter in our acronym F.I.B.E.R, is one of many. Integrity can mean many things, but for the most part it means to be honest and to have moral standards. Similar to integrity, leadership can sometimes be difficult to define and can have various meanings depending on a person’s views, values, and beliefs. To me leadership, or being a good leader, means to set an example, direction, to motivate, and to maximize individual efforts to achieve one main goal. My employment with Jamba Juice has had a tremendous impact on how I view leadership, and how I currently and will continue to use my new views to improve our store.…

These chapters break down Melinda’s days in classes, at school, and at home. Each of the larger sections ends with Melinda’s grades for the grading period, both for school and social aspects. Her grades in her social life go up while her grades in class except her art class go down and the more the book gets…

    'School' By Peter Cowan

    • 942 Words

    The text information in Peter Cowan's short story School, has been constructed in a way that we as the reader can interpret it in countless more ways than what it may mean on a surface level. Cowan limits the information of the text to allow the reader to form their own meaning. The text does not provide complete information about the boy in the story; it merely implies that he is feeling alienated and depressed. There is no text information that unambiguously explains that the boy is feeling alienated and excluded. In the last paragraph, the boy's difficulty is described by, 'He looked at the symbols on the paper and they blurred and made no pattern.' In this sentence, we assume that he does not understand the work, but this is only inferred. This text can be analysed as being limited in text information; to interpret it, the reader has to make assumptions of the omitted information.…
