Welcome back to NWEH, and welcome to our virtual classroom! This will be a place for you to contact me any time of the day, and a place where we can continue our classroom discussions outside of the classroom. If you have questions or concerns about an assignment, you can reach me here or via email. Every week I will post a blog related to something we're doing in the classroom. Once a week you will be required to respond to the question for a weekly Blog homework assignment.
Week one blog assignment: Tell me about one powerful experience you had over the summer. Using as much description as possible, tell me why this experience had such an impact on you. Did the experience help you grow as an individual? Was it positive or negative? In your response, if you write anonymously, include your FULL NAME (first and last, no nick names please!) in the comments section.
Due Sunday, 9/18 by midnight

Well this summer i did something i wasn't sapose to do and i got caught. I was hopeing for them to forgive me but they wouldn't and i got into depression so my cousin took me to church and i realized that it doesn't matter if those people didn't forgive me because there was always going be a person to forgive all my sins and love me no matter what. This help me grow as an individual because i learned things happen for a reason. Tatiana M.
ReplyDeleteOver the summer I was in Brazil for five weeks. My family is originally from there and so I went on a plane with both my parents and my grandmother. It was a very good experience for me because I havn't seen my family in three years and I also got to work on my portugese as well. When I was in Brazil I realized that everything had changed such as the economy and making bigger and better buildings. I also got to do alot of sight seeing and meet different people.

Over the summer I didn't really do anything that was much of significance other than go to summer school and make up for a class which I had failed due to an unforunate family emergancy earlier during the year.

Over the summer, I babysat my niece. The experience was postive because it helped my learn how to take care of a 1 year old. But the experience was also a negative. It made me question if in the future I would want childern due to the level of responsibilities. During the summer, I had to wake up as early as 8 in the morning to take care of my niece and only have a break when she took a nap. Even if my niece happen to sleep in late, I still had to wake her up before 10pm. Now that I think about it, I did have another postive experience, I earned my own money. In total, even though I spent it all, I made about $1,000 this summer from babysitting my niece.

Over the summer I went on a cruise to some places in the Caribbean and at those places the boat stopped at, me and a friend decided to rent cars and go drive around. We ended up in the "hood" of each Island. Driving around there made me realize how privileged we are and that we ( In the US ) should appreciate what we do have

ReplyDeleteThis summer i ran my own lil buissness. I held down a truck buissiness that helped people that needed a truck . whether it was for scrap metal,a moving, or a trash job i got it done.Having this lil side hobby impacted me by keepin alot of money to blow. It was a positive and negative exsprience at the same time because i kept money in my pocket but at the same i was doin illegal actions.
over the summer i went to pennsylvannia and met alot of new people it helped me to relize i need to get out to other places and see new things therefore it was a good experience physically and mentally

Over the summer I was able to enjoy myself. But unfortunetly, I experienced A very frightening experience. My daughter, Mariah was took to the emergency room because she had a very high fever.But mariah was ok. They said she had an infection. But she was going to be ok. This experience made a big impact to me because, I've never experienced a scary moment involving my baby. I experienced the pain my mother has went through for me and my siblings. And it's made me grow more as a mother because now I am more over protective with her. And even though this experience was negative, The outcome was positive. I love my baby so much, I thank god she was ok =)

This Summer My Experience Was Enjoyable Because I Did The Things I Loved With The People I Love. I Went To Wilson, North Carolina For A Trail Ride With My Family And We Partied, Ate Food Had A Fish Fry And Line Danced Til The Sun Came Up. Then The Next Morning We Went Out Riding. Then Later On That Night We Had A Competetion And Me And My BestFriend Ricky Came In 1st Place In The Buddy Pick Up. I Was Excited Because I Always Came In 3rd Or 4th But I've Practiced So Hard And All My Hard Work Payed Off And It Felt Good To Win $500 And A Belt-Buckle. :)
