Dear Mr. Arad
The phenomenon of disruption in class by the student is very common. Lately I have noticed that you have decided to automatically expelled(gr.) from school the students that will disrupt after the second warning(and what do you think about it? Do you agree ro not?).

In my opinion, expulsion from the school is a very harsh punishment that doesn't justify the actions. There is more than one way to solve this problem, (Start a new sentence) one way to solve this kind of problem is to share the teacher's expectations with the students. meaning(מיותר) (Start a new sentence), the teacher won't assume that children understand the his acceptable version of the lesson(phr.-not clear what you mean). Tapping, shouting, and throwing(what?) could be acceptable at home, but a child needs to have reinforcement of the teacher's expectations.(phr.) 

Moreover, if the teacher can't control one or more students, even though he had worn(sp.+gr.) them, he should understand that there are a(מיותר) different problems and a better solution. If the student gets bored he might be very smart and needs to be fit(ww.) to a higher education(ww.), or if a student needs extra help to study, a close teacher(ww.) might be the answer to his disruption in class
. Meaning(מיותר) each of(ww.-and) every student must find his right place where he can give and get the best of him and be a better student that doesn't disrupt.

In conclusion, when a student is disruption(ww.) during the lesson it means that this disruption comes from a reason and it has a solution that fits to(מיותר) the exact(מיותר) problem. Each and every problem has its own solution but when the problem is understandable the solution is very easy to deal with. That is way(sp.) expulsion (of) students because there aren't fit to the right version of education(phr.) is wrong and and needed(gr.-needs) to be more considered.(phr.) 

Yours faithfully,
Jane Mayer

talent vs hard work-correction


Talent vs hard work

Every person has his own talent. Some people develop their talent and become the best at their field. But sometimes people can connect and love other fields without any talent at all.
                                   
I believe that, hard work is the key to everything when a person develops the subject he likes and can connect to it. He will accomplish his goals even though he might wont have talent at all, for example, when a person work hard for something he loves there is no doubt he will succeed.


Moreover, if a person has talent it doesn't mean he will succeed due to his talent. Without hard work no one will be able to accomplish and reach their goals, because "accomplishing goals is 1% talent and 99% hard work", for example, a person who has talent but doesn't do anything with it he absolutely won't succeed.

To sum up, hard work is always the key to success and talent  only makes it easier to accomplish the goals. Talent is only a tool to help us accomplish our goals and succeed is required absolutely hard work.

reflection - all my sons act 3

Reflection:

1.    The difference is that when you are just reading you have to add your own imagination to the action because even when the stage directions are there, you do not know exactly how an actor might interpret that direction. Further, you will find that not hearing someone recite the lines changes the way in which we think about the dialogue and how the actors handle it.
2.    The characters we have the most exposure to are the Kellers. Ann and her brother are minor characters so won't be considered here. I find Kate to be the most interesting. I understand the denial she experiences in accepting Larry's death, but I find it interesting that one of the reasons she refuses to acknowledge he is anything but alive stems from the fact that she doesn't want to place any kind of blame on her own husband. To admit Larry is gone is to admit that her husband is a murderer. She'd had to live with both of these very sad truths, but she doesn't want to. It amazes me that she can do so.

3.    I think you always have to be prepared to read between the lines, so to speak, in this play. Much of the character development relies on the reader's skill interpreting emotions, gestures, and motives of the characters. One example of this is when mother finally wants to get rid of Larry's apple tree by saying there will be, “more light with that thing gone “. She is finally accepting that Larry won't be coming home.

post reading - all my sons act 3

Post Reading:
(If it's a diary entry, you should add a date and the words "dear diary")

1. Today it's finally over. The war is over. Germany has fallen down and we won. I miss my family with my whole heart, my mother, my father and mostly my brother - Larry. It's wired(sp.+ww.) (that) I haven't heard from him for a while, (new sentence) he usually writes to me, maybe he couldn't because he fought in the war too(ww.), I just hope he is fine.  Right now I'm on my way home to my family. I hope the rumors aren't true that my father is guilty for killing 21 pilots because of his business. I know my father, he couldn’t do something like that, and the business isn’t that important to him, he wouldn’t kill my friends(ww.)! I hope it will past(ww.) fast and the court will find him not guilty as charged. In about two hours I will get home and I'm sure that now we can all live as one big old(ww.) family.

2. What is this? A different ending? - You need to specify.

Chris gets the letter from Ann. (New sentence) he would read(gr.) it quietly and then decide(gr.) to not(wo.) show the letter to his father because he knows how much pain it could bring him. So instead(of) letting Joe read the letter, Chris is facing(gr.) Joe and tells him everything he (has) felt inside all this time and telling(gr.) him the truth about how he feels. At the beginning of the conversation they are talking quietly but it’s(מיותר) quickly becomes an argument between them. Joe is trying to defend himself but Chris is not convinced. After a long loud argument, Joe is saying to Chris that he is tired from(ww.) this subject and from digging this up. He is apologizing(gr.) to Chris for everything he has done, including blame(ing)  Ann’s father. Chris, not peace with himself(phr.), is forgiving(gr.) him and folding(gr.) the letter into his pocket. The two are exiting(gr.) and then Chris is entering(gr.) again and we can see him hiding the letter inside his journal as we know it will never be forgotten.

 Not bad work.
