RE: Through the Lens (Blondie and Traveler) The first off of the helicopter was the reporter, Tiara Simmons. No one had to second guess that she was the reporter because even in another country she was in a fitted white blouse, navy pencil skirt, and a matching jacket with her makeup perfectly done. She clearly wasn’t worried about the rest of the crew either because she had her bag, which packed to the brim, and was headed for a vehicle before the actual crew appeared. An independant journalist and the crew of two sent from National Geographic climbed out following Tiara and then came the rest of the reporting crew, Octavia Wellman and Tristan Alderman. Tristan climbed out fist carrying the boom mic along with the sound recording system that went with it.
Point 1: Sociolinguistics (8) 174w When it comes to reading, every student has different experiences in regards to what they are interested in reading. Working with students that are extremely diverse sociocultural theory addresses the importance of incorporate reading that students can relate to culturally.

The King’s shadow is a historical fiction that takes place during King Harold’s reign and specifically focuses on a young peasant named Evyn. As you might expect like any young person Evyn has dreams, specifically he wanted to become a storyteller. This is important as storytellers around this time, according to the book at least, often used their voices tell these tales rather than letting an individual read them. However, as you might expect from a story set during the medieval period Evyn’s dream will be stolen before he was even given a chance to even try. This was done by a group of thugs who not only cut off Evyn’s tongue, causing him to lose his voice, but also took it one step further and killed Evyn’s father.
While this idea is not only completely ignorant, it is also in line with the
We all have dark moments in our lives. Whether we choose to overcome it with light or allow it to take over is up to us. Two renowned classics both present darkness as a recurring theme in the protagonists lives. In the novel Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury, two best friends, Jim Nightshade and Will Halloway encounter a carnival late October, a time that carnivals never come in their town.

The One-Eared Intellectual was very enjoyable for me because it was told through a child ’s eyes. Children have crazy, wild imaginations so at the beginning when the little girl says “In my town there lives a man with an enormous intellect and only one ear. When I was a little girl, I thought that the two things were connected, that giving up one ear was simply the price you had to pay to be that smart”. When I read those lines I found it to be humorous that she associated his intellect with his missing ear.
The article “From outside, in,” by Barbara Mellix reveals the difficulties among the black ethnicity to differentiate between two diverse but similar languages. One is “black English”, which is comfortable to her while speaking with her family and community and the other is “standard English”, generally used while talking in public with strangers and work. Since childhood Mellix was taught when and where to use either black English or standard English. To illustrate, seeing her aunt and uncle in Pittsburgh, where there was wide range use of both languages, she learned to manage both languages with ease.
Nelson Mandela once said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”. From a young age we have a strong desire to gain access to and pick up on new information. As we mature, different ideas are constantly being thrown at us, which forces us to reevaluate what we have been manufactured to believe. Although the idea is disheartening, we find that our innocence we have as children may have been used against us in a way that counterbalances all the concepts we were taught. From there on out we begin to acknowledge that there are other theories in the world that we were not considering before simply because we were not introduced to them.
One thinks this even though in countless cases this mentality
Achieving an accurate education system is not an easy function for any nation.
