Learning Experiences I realized I don’t prefer going out unless I do something productive in the process. For example, my mom and my sister always seek to go somewhere just to sit and talk or walk around. I understand how they would want to do that, I feel like you have to be mindful of …

COVID Shutdown Blog #2
Learning Experiences I I’m starting to realize that the more I focus on moving forward and bettering myself, the more productive I become. I say this because I keep listening for updates on the status of our society instead of focusing on myself and paying attention to what I’m contributing to my personal life in …

Read-Aloud My absolute favorite read aloud of the week was Reflection of Peacemaker: A portrait through Heartsongs by Mattie Stepanek. It was so heartwarming to know that someone so young has so much wisdom about the world and how to treat people. It really opened my mind toward how I should look at the world …

Read-Alouds My favorite read-aloud this week was Becoming by Michelle Obama, read by Korbyn. It really opened my eyes because I didn’t really know what the Obamas went through as they entered into office, and I felt more informed about what they went through as African Americans. I also am interested in reading and watching …
