Tue, 23 Nov 2021 17:16:03 +0300 Knowing yourself https://nowcomment.com/documents/288499?scroll_to=2566666 https://nowcomment.com/documents/288499?scroll_to=2566666 When teachers start teaching it is because they want to teach people what they feel like they know about. In Sister Corita's life it was teaching people about art. Teachers can help shape people into who they are as a person. Which for the teachers is putting some knowledge they have into you. Tue, 23 Nov 2021 05:14:45 +0300 Being open https://nowcomment.com/documents/288499?scroll_to=2566665 https://nowcomment.com/documents/288499?scroll_to=2566665 Sister Corita said to get rid of all your assumptions. Which we should because it can change our views on life in a tremendous way.By not having those assumptions it allows you to be open to new ideas and possibilities which is what she would tell her students. Everything can be a source of inspiration if we open our minds to it. Tue, 23 Nov 2021 05:14:45 +0300 Identity https://nowcomment.com/documents/288499?scroll_to=2566663 https://nowcomment.com/documents/288499?scroll_to=2566663 Sister Corita gave her students the courage to draw even when some of them didn't even know they could. She showed everyone the artist inside themselves.

Tue, 23 Nov 2021 05:14:45 +0300 self critic https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539362 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539362 Being your own critic like Colin said can be a good thing. It is when we put too much pressure on ourselves is when things go wrong. Fri, 03 Sep 2021 05:12:14 +0400 overthinking https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539358 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539358 Overthinking is a problem and has always been a problem. We overthink things that we can't control and we shouldn't but most of us do. Some people overthink worse than others but I think there has been a time in someone's life that they have overthought. Fri, 03 Sep 2021 05:10:27 +0400 Having a different type of thinking https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539355 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539355 If we think inside the box all the time it does no good for us. We have to go out on limps and expand our mind. You might struggle on a problem but if you think about it with a different attitude it might just help you. Fri, 03 Sep 2021 05:07:14 +0400 response https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539342 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539342 I agree with what Sydney is saying it is interesting because there are already so many. How are they going to go into more detail and try to add more. Fri, 03 Sep 2021 04:55:36 +0400 question https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539338 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539338 Why is it called a traditional setting? Is that just what we have done for the past so many years or what? Not everyone had access to education until a little bit ago. Fri, 03 Sep 2021 04:53:01 +0400 agree https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539316 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247448?scroll_to=2539316 I agree with the questions Ava is asking why is it called Habits of Mind? Do we have an answer why? Sun, 17 Jul 2022 20:45:25 +0400 Statement https://nowcomment.com/documents/231819?scroll_to=2529445 https://nowcomment.com/documents/231819?scroll_to=2529445 "Long before the year was up, Janie noticed that her husband had stopped talking in rhymes to her." Love that isn't real things don't last forever and this showed Janie that he just did it so she would marry him. Mon, 30 Aug 2021 05:51:16 +0400 knowing what you want https://nowcomment.com/documents/231819?scroll_to=2529442 https://nowcomment.com/documents/231819?scroll_to=2529442 Janie had this idea of that what kind of love she wants. She wanted to be able to experience that but with everything else with her grandma.She didn't know if she could get that type of love. Mon, 30 Aug 2021 05:48:21 +0400 Language https://nowcomment.com/documents/231819?scroll_to=2529441 https://nowcomment.com/documents/231819?scroll_to=2529441 You realize as you read this more and more that the way they pronounce and spell things is much different than the what we do now. Mon, 30 Aug 2021 05:44:58 +0400 word choice https://nowcomment.com/documents/231819?scroll_to=2529440 https://nowcomment.com/documents/231819?scroll_to=2529440 The word choice and how everything is carefully worded in order makes the paragraph so much more meaningful Mon, 30 Aug 2021 05:42:13 +0400 imagery https://nowcomment.com/documents/158358?scroll_to=2509228 https://nowcomment.com/documents/158358?scroll_to=2509228 "a sudden hush fell on the crowd," this provides you an image that you can probably relate to when teacher talks and you have to be quiet Fri, 13 Aug 2021 00:37:58 +0400 response https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380295 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380295 It seems like the author uses figurative language a lot throughout this piece. It gives the audience a vivid picture though. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 22:00:00 +0300 memories https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380287 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380287 She remembers what the kids looked like because she did care. "I laid my tears across his desk, and rearranged them in an arch exactly like his smile." Wed, 17 Mar 2021 22:00:00 +0300 Agree https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380273 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380273 I agree that the teacher really did care for her students, as most teachers do. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 22:00:00 +0300 Description https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380264 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380264 Not all others can write to wear people know exactly what you are talking about and what it looks likes. The author has done just that though. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 22:00:00 +0300 Not having anything to do https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380249 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380249 As a child you didn't need to go anywhere to make you happy. Just not having school and being able to play outside and stay home was enough for a lot of children. That is not the case as you get older though. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:59 +0300 Children holding torches https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380234 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380234 Does she think the kids hate her that bad to think that the kids would do something violent? I understand them not wanting to read but the author exaggerates. This keeps the audience intrigued though. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:59 +0300 praying https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380201 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380201 She says she prays to make it out. So this means the children are probably not having any fun learning. The teacher has to change that because if kids don't enjoy learning then they are young they will have a hard time once they get older. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:58 +0300 How important is state testing? https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380162 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380162 The state tests are basically just to see where you are at compared to others. We were taught not to compare ourselves to others. But yet that's exactly what the state testing is doing. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:58 +0300 Giving up https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380150 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380150 The little girl wants to give up because of a state test. She wants to just drop out. State testing shouldn't make kids want to stop learning and just drop out but yet it does. So why are we still having state testing, when we know how it makes students feel? Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:58 +0300 Testing https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380137 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380137 This girl is stressed out because of state testing. What people don't realize is this happens until you get out of college, you continue to have to take tests. Tests cause so much stress for anyone. I still get stressed about tests. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:57 +0300 Alive https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380128 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380128 I believe he titles this page alive because when you were a child you didn't have to worry about anything. At least nothing compared to what you have to worry about now. When you don't have any worries this is when people feel the most alive. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:57 +0300 kids playing https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380114 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380114 You can tell on this page that the children are having fun playing. They are diving on bean bags. You can just imagination how this would be going children knocking each other over and the children just laughing about it. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:57 +0300 What if they can? https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380099 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380099 Putting yourself in the right mind set can change so many things for you. He is thinking negative, what if he started thinking positive. Would it change the outcome? Maybe he would be more successful. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:56 +0300 word choice https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380084 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380084 Why might of he have used grenade in this situation? Is he that mad? Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:56 +0300 "you can do anything if you put your mind to it" https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380078 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380078 I have heard this phrase a lot in out lifetime. Sometimes I say it to others and I'm just joking. Other times I think to myself what if I was in that mindset where I could do anything I put my mind too. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:56 +0300 money https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380060 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380060 When you are young you don't realize the money aspect of being from place to place all you know is how pretty other places are. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:55 +0300 whole universe https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380052 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380052 Once you live somewhere for your who life time moving sounds so nice. All he ever knew was Glenville but there is way more of the world that he is currently missing out on and he knows it. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:59 +0300 response https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380006 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380006 This is a great way to look at the lowercase. I would have never thought to look at it as he doesn't value himself enough to have upper case letters. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:55 +0300 response https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2379991 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2379991 This is a great thought that many people probably haven't even thought about. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:55 +0300 title page https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2379925 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2379925 The title page is what can either get people to read the book or not want to. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 21:59:54 +0300 Agree https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375474 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375474 I agree that the tone in this sentence changes almost like he is trying to be serious but sarcastic at the same time. Fri, 12 Mar 2021 00:33:30 +0300 Pathos https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375472 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375472 We say these little sentences like this all the time wanting people to feel bad for us or maybe even just show that they care. It makes you feel guilty and that's exactly what the goal of his was to do. Fri, 12 Mar 2021 00:32:11 +0300 Realizing words hurt https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375466 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375466 We often don't realize that what we say can hurt others. Here is a prime example of this the girl says he hates the boy. Not knowing if she was joking by the tone of her voice, he took it personally. Fri, 12 Mar 2021 21:50:15 +0300 getting to know others https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375461 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375461 We still say our name to the class and say things that describe us to get to better know each other. It's smart to do especially in their situation where people are from different nationalities. Fri, 12 Mar 2021 00:24:12 +0300 Nerve-racking https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375455 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263224?scroll_to=2375455 He knew he was going to have to be ready for the first day because this was when people stood out. Which made him nervous but he had to be prepared for anything. Fri, 12 Mar 2021 00:20:46 +0300 Stressful https://nowcomment.com/documents/262700?scroll_to=2375443 https://nowcomment.com/documents/262700?scroll_to=2375443 Malcolm says that homework is stressful especially when you feel like your home is work and tests are stressful. He was a kid once too and he knows how stressful these things are. As being a kid right now I can say these things are stressful especially with everything going on right now. People never know what others are going through and feeling forced to do assignments doesn't help with less stress. Fri, 12 Mar 2021 06:48:53 +0300 Agree https://nowcomment.com/documents/262700?scroll_to=2375432 https://nowcomment.com/documents/262700?scroll_to=2375432 I agree with everything you are saying because Malcom says "one group is taught to lead and the other is taught to follow." It doesn't have to be like this and it shouldn't be like this everyone can be a leader. Fri, 12 Mar 2021 00:07:23 +0300 Body Image https://nowcomment.com/documents/260283?scroll_to=2375407 https://nowcomment.com/documents/260283?scroll_to=2375407 These are things that still happen to this day is we think people don't like us for how we look. We hate on others because in one way or another we are insecure about our image. Thu, 11 Mar 2021 23:33:05 +0300 Realization https://nowcomment.com/documents/260279?scroll_to=2375400 https://nowcomment.com/documents/260279?scroll_to=2375400 The boy is young and the woman understands that when she was young she wanted everything to. So she tries to explain to the boy that taking stuff is just not how life works. Wed, 21 Apr 2021 06:01:29 +0400 teaching right from wrong https://nowcomment.com/documents/260279?scroll_to=2375393 https://nowcomment.com/documents/260279?scroll_to=2375393 I think the woman felt some guilt knowing that he probably doesn't have the best home life or any at all. So she decides she wants to help him out and teach him right from wrong. Wed, 21 Apr 2021 06:01:29 +0400 education https://nowcomment.com/documents/260957?scroll_to=2360756 https://nowcomment.com/documents/260957?scroll_to=2360756 Fredrick knew just how important education and being able to write was. This whole paragraph you can tell Fredrick used a lot of creative things to help him learn how to write and eventually he succeeded. Tue, 14 Sep 2021 00:02:10 +0400 the feeling slaves felt https://nowcomment.com/documents/260957?scroll_to=2360713 https://nowcomment.com/documents/260957?scroll_to=2360713 The fact that he was looking back on being a slave and wished he had killed himself is terrible. It makes you think how many other slaves probably felt the exact same way as he did and how many did kill themselves because slavery was so awful. He had hope that maybe one day he would be free and hope is something was slaves probably had but got stolen away from them because people thought it was okay to basically take people for hostage. Tue, 14 Sep 2021 00:02:10 +0400 compassion https://nowcomment.com/documents/260957?scroll_to=2360708 https://nowcomment.com/documents/260957?scroll_to=2360708 This sentence shows that her mistress was a warm-hearted person. She treated her as you should treat everyone, the golden rule as you might say. He felt like him being treated as a human was wrong which hearing that is so sad to think about because no one should ever feel that way. Tue, 14 Sep 2021 00:02:10 +0400 tone https://nowcomment.com/documents/258111?scroll_to=2332955 https://nowcomment.com/documents/258111?scroll_to=2332955 When he says I accuse you both. I can hear them saying that with an aggressive tone. Thu, 11 Feb 2021 21:53:19 +0300 little moons fall down like tears https://nowcomment.com/documents/257626?scroll_to=2326778 https://nowcomment.com/documents/257626?scroll_to=2326778 Why does that look like? Is she trying to say that the darkness can be sad? When I think of darkness I don't think happy thoughts, I think of sadness. Tue, 09 Feb 2021 21:33:49 +0300 Substituting Things for Happiness https://nowcomment.com/documents/247092?scroll_to=2299519 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247092?scroll_to=2299519 I feel like this happens a lot in today's society people think that money can buy happiness and love and maybe for some people it can. For me personally and for Morrie money and things don't make up for the happiness and love you might not have in your life. I feel like people have talked about this a lot especially considering their is a saying about it. Thu, 28 Jan 2021 21:57:02 +0300 Staying positive https://nowcomment.com/documents/247092?scroll_to=2299467 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247092?scroll_to=2299467 It is hard for a lot of people including myself to stay positive, but I have realized when I am positive I feel a lot better mentally. Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:01:30 +0400 My opinion https://nowcomment.com/documents/243457?scroll_to=2269364 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243457?scroll_to=2269364 I know that it has got to be hard to know people are saying things that you can't hear. I couldn't imagine how that feels. I feel like he has a good attitude about it though. Mon, 11 Jan 2021 22:00:59 +0300 Jack knowing people deserve better https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2187472 https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2187472 Jack knows that this isn't the best job for him because he believes that "the boys" deserve better, his wife deserves better, and he deserves better. He doesn't want to leave though because he will feel too guilty and just focusing on himself. You can tell this topic is a very sensitive one for him. Sat, 07 Nov 2020 06:17:27 +0300 Jack praising Arnold https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2187463 https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2187463 You could tell how much better it made Arnold feel once Jack took a second to say he was proud of Arnold for taking the groceries back. Just shows how something so small like that can mean so much. Tue, 10 Nov 2020 18:28:03 +0300 Jack's response https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2187461 https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2187461 This scene shows how selfless Jack really is by forgetting his own birthday because of how much he thinks about "the boys." His original response to the call was concern because he thought something was wrong with his wife. After his wife told him it was for a marriage counselor because he was there but not really, Jack looked betrayed but knows he has to make a balance between his wife and "the boys." Sat, 07 Nov 2020 05:43:06 +0300 #17 Poem/Heart https://nowcomment.com/documents/238472?scroll_to=2175639 https://nowcomment.com/documents/238472?scroll_to=2175639 This poem really speaks to me. Two weeks ago this poem wouldn't mean as much to me as it does now. This poem to me means just to allow others to help you. I have realized who my real close friends are. The poem says "we are more than capable of sharing your pain", which I have noticed my friends trying to do. The poem might be short but it gets the point across. Fri, 30 Oct 2020 20:51:53 +0300
