3.1: Famous People

Meeting a famous person sounds like a dream come true. If given the opportunity to meet a famous person, take the advantage of meeting Gypsy Rose Blanchard. Gypsy is strong minded despite of everything she has been through, she is continually happy, and she was successful

One thing about Gypsy is that she has a strong mind. She was forced to be in a wheelchair all of her childhood and Gypsy was eventually able to struggle walking because of how long she was in a wheelchair. Gypsy Rose was also forced to take medicine that she did not need. Being strong just physically is not what Gypsy only needed to be, but to be strong minded mentally. 

Gypsy has a strong mind and she also is happy. Gypsy Rose was forced through so much pain at times, but when she stepped foot into prison she felt safer and more relieved than she has ever in her life, she was still happy after everything she went through. While everyone is talking down on her on social media she still manages to think positive and be happy. If anyone would ever go through so much it would be hard to maintain a positive mindset and be happy, but Gype Rose achieves this. 

Some may think Gypsy Rose is not being that successful with her life as of now, but she is. Gypsy is not only making money already off of social media platforms but she is focusing on looking for a job. Money isn't the only thing that can make one successful, Gypsy also has a different success in her life, and that is a support system, which is her husband/boyfriend and other family. She is both success money wise and just with her small circle of support. 

Being able to meet someone famous I would meet Gypsy Rose Blachard to hear her side of her story.Gypsy Rose is strong minded, happy, and is successful with more than money.

2.1: Fall Observations

This semester I am enrolled in Education Technology and over the past few weeks I have observed the Southside High School and Jr. High in 4 different classrooms.

One positive take away from Mrs. Foree, who teaches Yearbook when I observed her class, was student led. She believes all her students are mature enough to do their work on their own. During this time the students was creating the senior composite pictures and mrs. Foree did not have to tell them what to do.

One positive take away from Mr. L, who teaches Computer Science when I observed his class, liked to joke around with his students. He had a good relationship with all of his kids. Mr. L teaching strategy was he made sure all of his students was focused and paying attention, he would joke to keep them paying attention as well.

One positive take away from Mrs. Sweat, who teaches Social Studies when I observed her class, Mrs. Sweat allowed 15 minutes for her students to finish their book talk for their English class. When teaching she also did a recap of what they learned last and she explains how the upcoming lesson will tie into what they had learned last.

One positive take away from Mrs. Chism, who teaches math, when I observed was Mrs. Chism was very adimate about helping all her students. All of Mrs. Chsim's students looked like they enjoyed her and enjoyed her way of teaching.

All of these teachers were great at what they do, they all liked to joke and treated all their students the same. Every teacher had a different way of teaching but I felt like they all was reaching every students learning ability.
