One thing that stood out to me was one of the youth saying
that it would have been better for them if the teachers acted as their mentors
as well as their teacher. I believe it is important for youth to create a
connection with the teacher. I believe that a relationship between teacher and
their student is important for the students success and education. Teacher
should have relationship with their students to know their problems and that
way they will know what is affecting them. If the teacher has a relationship
with their students the teacher could help their youth to focus in school also
try to find a solution. I look back and I wish that my teachers and I would
have had that connection because I feel things would have been different. The
teacher would have understood me in an other level. </div>

Not only student and teachers relationship are important but
also youth and parents relationship. Where parents could know what’s going on
with their child to support them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For
example, I grew up with my parents where I had a great<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>relationship with them. My parents were
involved if I was having a good day and always asked me if I had a problem. My parents
were also worried about my education where they wanted me to get good grades.

<i><span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Resilient kids is a program that
offers an innovative yoga and mindfulness curriculum working with the students
in their schools. The programs mission is the social, emotional and academic
growth though mindfulness. Resilient kids are now in many schools in Rhode
Island. </span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Before the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5L0mlN95zg" target="_blank">Video</a> I did not know about
resilient kids. Watching the video taught me what they do. The program <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>has improved youth’s academic and
behavior. I believe its great for children to practice this in schools. It’s a
way to stay positive in schools and better the students. In just a few minutes
can make the difference. It helps by calming and relaxing students. As seen in
the video the yoga stretch helps the youth calm their mind. In many cases youth
can’t do this on their own. Resilient is a great tool to learn how to clam and
focus in school. for example, one of the boys said he’s doing better and in
school (exams, better grades). The other said thanks to resilient kids he likes
going to school. Mindfulness helps youth improve self-esteem, mood, and decease
anxiety and stress. What I can tell from the video is that Resilient kids is
making great progress in youth with their mindfulness techniques. </span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I hope that Resilient kids continues
making change in youth to continue their progress. I hope that their works continues
so we could have them in all school systems. </span></i></div>

was unsure what to expect. I thought it was going to be crowded but there was a
great amount of people there. I saw lots of parents and students. There were
many professors, stuff and students helping out with the event. I started
looking around for the YDEV table. We were located in the back.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Corinne and classmates welcomed
me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We had a table with the
education. We had bubbles, pencils, </span></i><span style="color: #262626; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">candy and brochures. Justina and I started walked around to talk

</span>table that was not being used and made it ours. We put all of stuff
there and made it official we were the YDEV table separate from the Education
table. We had students interest and we had social work students sending people
over from their table. </span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I felt we had a good amount of
students interest in the YDEV program. The students were excited about the
program. They had many question so did the parents. I was excited to let people
know about our great program. I also talked to a senator from Providence that was
there and tried to convince is he’s son to join our program. </span></i></div>

The Construction of Adolescence </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Nakkulat Toshalis first chapter in <i>The Construction of
Adolescence was a great read. I liked the fact that it had the story of Ms.
Petersen and Antwon, it made it easy to read. I believe having the story made
it to understand the reading. </i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">This first chapter was about the
relationship between imagine from past experience and they interpret the theories.
Nakkula talks about Antwon’s behavior and self understanding are being affected
by Ms. Petersen’s toward him. The reason Antwon acts different toward Ms.
Perersen is because of the contribution and authorization she gave to him. According
to Nakkula, the key is that educators thinking should be transparent as
possible for students to connect with them. </span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I believe that educator should not
base experience to new students. Also should not place preconceived judgment
onto other students. </span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">For educator it is important to
understand their student’s way of thinking and how they think. It is important
to understand where they are coming from and respect where they came from. Its
important to listen “Educator must understand the approximate level or nature
of their student’s thinking.”</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="color: #001d3e; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">A way to have a connection with a
students is to work as a team. The teacher might have the title that does not
mean<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>they have all the knowledge
in every situation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The way a
teacher gains knowledge is from their student learning how there are thinking

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">For this class we did the egg drop. I had never done this
activity before, so I did not know what to expect. When I arrived to the class
I received a star (a green star). After we got into groups according to the
color of the star we received. We got a box and couldn’t open onto we were
settle down with our group. We went to the hallway. When we opened the box we
had rubber bands, condoms, shopping bags, strings, balloons and paper.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With the materials that we were given we had
to protect our egg. My group decided to cover our egg with condom and many soft
objects that we were given.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When the Youth
in Action came and took away material that we had. At first we I was upset
because I thought we did a good in protecting our egg. After that we continue
to use material that we had in our box. We thought our egg was going to make it
which unfortunately it didn’t. When we were outside the other groups had more
materials than we did. At the end my group were upset that we failed. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">This activity reminded me of the Ullucci reading.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The reason it reminded of this reading was
because if children don’t see what they are missing until they see someone else
with it. what I mean by that is that if they don’t see <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>that are missing resources until they see
these children with more resources. Many children might feel they are being set
to fail, because they don’t have the resources necessary . In my opinion I didn’t
know what I was missing onto I saw other people that had a better education
than I had. I knew that something was missing but didn’t know how to get a hold
of these resources. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">I have witness that some communities get more resources than
other. For example, in Rhode Island. Urban schools have less starting from
textbooks and old computes. When you look at other schools they have Ipads and
more technology. I remember when I was in middle school I used the same
textbook my brother used and were seven years apart and these same books were
still being used. The school system want children to have the same education
and expect them to be successful. But how can these children have the same
education without the same resources.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

article shows us how poverty affects youth. Poverty affects Schools, they are separated<br />
by different classes. Also <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>they are divided<br />
by race. Its happens to be that schools are being separated to geographical area<br />
the minority schools end up going to the same school. Where there is lack of resources<br />
for these students.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Many schools today<br />
are being segregated. Many will argue this is not true. But if you think about<br />
it, it’s true. Where parents have more money there are better education. But in<br />
urban the education is not so great. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In<br />

People may say that those who are living in poverty are lazy or don’t want<br />
to live a different life than what they are in right now. This is not the<br />
case. There are many factors that come with living in poverty. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div></blockquote></blockquote><br /><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Going to
advising was great, I got to meet some of the people from the program. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We got to talk about our experience and some
people were stress out as I was. I found out that most of the people there were
graduating with me. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>During the event we
sat down on computers and fill our Plan of study. I felt the hardest part was
filling up everything in our plan of studies because it took a long time. But
once it was filled out it was easier to find out what classes we needed. We also
talked about when classes were given to make sure we take the correct classes. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">What did I learn
from going to advising? Well first I learned that I have taken a lot of
classes. Second I learned that I have to take a class I did not know about. Third
I learned about how the NON- Profit studies works and how many other classes I needed.
<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Plus:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My plus from this event was that we got to go
over our schedule to make sure if we were taking the correct classes. I got to
see if am going to graduate on time. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Guess
What! I will be Graduating in May! (If everything goes as plan) another plus
from this event was that we got to pick our classes and put them on cart for
next semester. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">A Primary
support is often for young people, they participate on a voluntary basis. Some of
the activities are for parents to be involves as well. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It often a variety of cultural, athletic, social
and recreational. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some of the primary
support are made up by part time and volunteers. You will find these primary support
near schools or communities. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">A few
examples for these primary support will be the YMCA, YWCA, Boy Scouts and the
4- H club. These are some of the oldest support. But the oldest is the YMCA that
was founded in England in 1844. <br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">These primary
support organization are flexible for empowering youth. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But they are limited of training and experiencing
of many staff.’’ Primary support organizations share a commitment to meeting
the normal developmental needs of young people rather than focusing on their problems.”
It is more important to focus on the children rather than the problem of the organization.
A lot of the primary support programs are organized around the goals not
academic of young people, but it’s also physical, social and emotional. Primary
supports are there to make the person stronger to strive for the better such as
academic and leadership skills. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">I believe
that these primary support are good for young people. I feel it helps them to
build themselves up. Many young people don’t have a parent or someone at home
that could help them with homework, and this a great way to meet people, get
help and build themselves up for the better.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Adobe Hebrew","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">The article for this week was the Digital native,
Digital immigrants. What I got out of this reading was how much things have
changed with technology. People that are digital immigrants are not that aware
of how much a person could do with technology. On the other you have a youth
that are digital natives and see how much they could do with the technology. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>According
to <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Prensky , “They have spent their
entire lives surrounded by and using computers, videogames, digital music
players, video cams, cell phones, and all the other toys and tools of the
digital age.” I could relate to this ever since I could remember I have
surrounded myself some type of digital item. I believe in a way its good and
another it’s bad. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Adobe Hebrew","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Students now are
involve with technology that as a youth worker I could bring the things I know
to the table. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I will be at their same
level because we will all be digital natives. I believe everywhere a person goes
they will see something digital. For example, most of the things in our school
and even at home we would have to use something digital or there is something
digital. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Adobe Hebrew","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I believe that living in the digital era is
both positive and negative. One of the negative things I found in the reading
which was “Still, we often hear from teachers about increasing problems their
students have with reading and thinking. What about this? Has anything been <i>lost
</i>in the Digital Natives’ “reprogramming” process?” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I think that something’s will get lost like socialization,
the reason for that is that youth become dependent in digital resources that
they forget what is around them that there is so much more out there other than
technology. One thing positive thing is that it’s easy to use. There is so much
you could do with technology. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The article is about an organization
named Youth in Action that provides youths with a voice to take charge and make
changes for what they believe in. I think this a great organization because the
youth are the ones in charge of every move of the organization.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I found this reading to be interesting. I
believe that the main point of this reading was to give youth their own space
to think, so youth has a voice. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">I connected with this reading
because I grew up in Providence and like Adeola oredola when she walked to into
college she felt “underserved by my education before getting to college.” I
felt the same exact way when I first got to college, I felt that I was not
prepare. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to get where you need to
be. I remember I had to push myself more than the other students because I
didn’t know the material necessary to be a successful college student. I think
that’s why I decided to work with youth because I want to help students to be
prepared when they get to college or anything they decide to do. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">I believe that Youth in Action
is doing a good job helping the youth have a voice. I believe it’s important to
have a voice especially when you feel that you’re being cheated on from your
education. I wish when I was younger I would of heard of Youth in Action
because I could of worked on my self-esteem because I could of done more. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Overall I think that Youth in
action is a great place where the youth could project their voices and fight
for what they believe in.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Hi everyone!
I am Hecmy, I am a senior at Rhode Island College. My goal is to work with
children, I would like to be a remodel for children. I would like to be that
person they look and say because of Hecmy I did not give up. When I was in
school I never had a teacher or person within the school that pushed me. When I
look back the only motivation and support team I really had was my family. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
