Stages of Grief Paper Grief is inseparable from the human condition. When sin entered the world it opened the world to grief. While all of humanity shares the experience of grief; it is a deeply personal and individual experience. There are many ways in which humans process grief. One useful way to process grief is through writing therapy (O'Connor, Nikoletti, Kristjanson, Loh & Willcock, 2003). In the story Lament for a Son, Nicholas Wolterstorff writes about his son who died in a climbing accident
Although no two people grieve the same, there are some common feelings shared among those who mourn. First described by Elizabeth Kübler-Ross, there are five widely accepted stages of grief one may experience after the loss of a loved one. After years of misinterpretation, Kübler-Ross clarifies that these stages are not steps, but rather tools to assist one in learning to live with the loss of someone they loved (Kübler-Ross, Kessler, & Shriver, 2014).

I challenged myself to work on my nerves. Second, I challenged myself to work on not rushing through my speech. I usually like to talk fast to get it done with. Last, I challenged myself to make the time requirements. I think I addressed these pretty well. I didn't rush through my speech and I made my time requirements. The strongest element in my body was my facts. At the 1:50 mark I had really good facts about Blarney Castle. I think I did a good job describing it and how to kiss the stone. My
Self and Peer Evaluation Self Evaluation: My speech on Jumbo the elephant was decently presented overall but did contain several mistakes. The opening was meant to be intriguing and emotional to catch the audience. I failed at keeping a slow pace and adding dramatic pauses due to nerves and fear of going over the time limit given.

It also means knowing the word’s role(s) in different contexts, its spelling, how it sounds, its other meanings, it’s part of speech, and so on (Juel & Deffes, 2004). Stahl (2003) makes the distinction between the dictionary definition of a word (definitional knowledge), and the way a word’s meaning adapts to different contexts. In the acquisition of word meaning, it is important
