we are different we can things of different things and share it. “ How boring would life be if everyone was exactly the same as everyone else in the world? If everyone looked the same, had the same personality, the same interests and the same experiences, we would lose interest in other people pretty quickly. Luckily, each of us has a unique set of qualities and characteristics that make us different. Even though we know that these differences are for the best, sometimes we feel uncomfortable with
Sleep is an essential part to the growth and wellbeing of humans. Without it we will not fully develop or function properly. As high school students we tend to over exert ourselves and not get the adequate amount of sleep needed to function and develop properly. This will then affect everything we do in the days to follow and will therefore affect our academic and sporting abilities as well as our moods and overall functioning. The intent of this research project was to identify what affects the
As part of my undergraduate work psychology majors were required to complete a 100 hour practicum in their field. I was able to work at the Donaldson Wellness Center in Waxahachie, Texas as an undergraduate intern. I worked under the supervision of a Katherine Donaldson Ph.D., Nicole Keehn Psy. D., and Anthony Bean who at the time was a Ph.D. intern completing his hours. Working under each of these individuals allowed me to experience different perspectives into the world of psychology. I had the
Parent Questionnaire Answers Nadiv M Bangura 1 . Nadiv's high school experience has been both pleasurable and challenging not really painful. We have been challenged because We have to put in a lot of hours making sure that Nadiv's school work and grade is on track. Nadiv is a very smart kid, my feeling is he needs to put more effort to produce quality school work all the time. Nadiv is not consistent with this effort. We have tried explaining to him that this is very necessary at this stage
these students to succeed with the exact same lessons, materials, and supports as all my other students. I also realized that my school does not meet the needs of twice-exceptional learners. I think this is because we do not have a common tool in place that all teachers are expected to use to meet the needs of their diverse learners.

Our home wasn’t as nice as Colorado, but it still had trees, but the trees did not move as gracefully as the trees in Colorado nor did the sun shine the same. My mom had raise me to be an independent women because, “you can’t only count on a man all the
after all, going to a fancy private school in another state. In my town, most students didn't go to college let alone go to the University of Rochester for pre-law. I could feel the burden of everyone's expectations weighing down on me as I walked into my first class, Intro to Political Theory, freshman year. When I walked out of that classroom, I knew that I would never be a lawyer; I hated studying the social sciences and I wanted to be my own person; I wanted to be a teacher. A part of me always knew
create a meaningful documentary that showcased exactly what it was like for a child who had a certain disability: Down syndrome. This documentary was able to shed light on a disorder in an informal way in order to get the real experience of living with this disorder. In my experience I observed one male who had Down syndrome. I observed this child within a variety of settings, but I mainly observed him within his home and his school. This observation took place over the course of 10 years, starting when
Discovering that I was leaving my hometown of Caster, Georgia was the most enlightening news I have ever heard.

I was happy to get away from my childhood acquaintances that were never true friends and move away to the busy city of Penceville, Georgia which is located just north of Atlanta. I was moving to Penceville because my mom had just gotten married and my step dad lived there. Leaving
