Fall 2024 Post 01: Introduction to Consuela Stanley

Consuela Stanley here,

I am a late 20's , single mom. I was born and raised in Macon GA. From the time I was born up until age of 5 I have undergone multiple open heart surgeries to try to fix congenital hear defects. Since the first day I came home from my first day of school in Kindergarten I knew I wanted to be a teacher. That has been my dream since I was little girl. Even though at the time I just looked at it as an authoritative figure who tell kids what to do, instead of teaching. I guess that was just the sassiness and bossiness in me haha... But as I got older I realized it was about teaching, and I knew that's what I wanted to do as far as career. I want to be there for kids in ways that some adults weren't there for me. With this class, It will help me if pursuing that goal.

Thank you for your time and reading a little bit about me.

Hello fellow bloggers, So, I am going to get straight to the point BUT I want this piece to be enjoyable to read also. But in my essay, I wanted to give some insight into why the education major would be a good fit and what some of the benefits of possibly having that degree are. It was supposed to be a little persuasive and slightly argumentative on how this major would be better than any others but I don't think I did a good job on that part.

From what I researched and from what I experienced pursuing this Education degree, you would be Making a Difference , you will have the opportunity to directly impact the lives of young children, helping them reach their full potential and that is just to name a few. Who's to say other degrees won't have the same effect, but this is what I have chosen. A figure from Rebecca Jones just to show that I really don't have an...

Post 3: Read and Write like Mike Bunn

Hey there, Thank you for reading my blog. It's a beautiful day or should I say "Night" haha to write blog # THREE!!! Here goes nothing. So after taking the time to read and try to analyze Mike Bunn's How to Read Like a Writer I've come up with a few things that I enjoyed and want to share with you all. I liked how Bunn explains what it Means to Read like a writer. Instead of writing just so that people would read your article you have to actually set a tone and make it so that your audience can understand and grasp what you have written. I noticed that Bunn mentions how he uses paraphrases instead of drawn-out quotes. Which I think is a plus. Because if you use a quote that only you understand how would you expect your readers to know what you are talking about. UNLESS they look it up but I doubt they would go that far. That's just a little bit of my take on the Mike Bunn portion of the reading space. Again thank you to all who considered reading my blogs or...
