My first block today, May 18, 2023, was African Studies. I proofread more student work and kept working on my Google slides for my presentation to the class tomorrow May 19. The topic of the symposium will be "Ethnicity in Africa." Will Wamaru wanted me to put together a slide due after the topic because I have had quite a few experiences being Nigerian, and he thought I would have more details about ethnicity since I am part of ethnic group in Nigeria. In addition, I attended the Human Rights class, next block where we continued watching documentaries related to the class, and I worked on proofreading student papers. I also visited Morgan Salathe's 9th grade class and taught the students what a block quotation is and how to make one, and we gave the students time to keep working on their papers. Three hours of class so far as of then. The last class of the day was the enigma of Russia with Jen. The students were left to design their postals and I helped some of them in making that happen.

  This week was enjoyable despite the fact that it was extremely chaotic due to the increase in the amount of work I had to complete, as well as my medical appointments here and there. However, it was exciting to be able to do new activities and continue to build relationships with students from various blocks while still learning.     In addition, towards the end of this week, I gave a presentation in Will Wamaru's African Studies class as well as the other classes. I learned some attributes about what constitutes a good presentation in terms of clothing, body language, and speaking abilities.  Making a presentation, especially in a professional setting, helped me analyze what I needed to work on and what I needed to do more of.     In conclusion, I continue to work on a unit to present at the human rights and Enigma of Russia class. I am really looking forward to the rest of my time at proctor and spending it with friends, teammates, a...

  Today May 17, 2023. It is Wednesday, so it’s a half day due to afternoon activities, commitment and games. In other words, I just had alot of independent work, and I had the African Studies class with Will Wamaru. I helped two students with research. Mathew, who's a student in the class, needed help with finding resources on Ghana ethnicity, I helped with that and Nora, who is also a student needed help with proofreading I helped her some. This took an hour of class. Afterwards, It was the last block of the day so I had to go grab lunch, and I had an appointment at the doctor’s so I had to leave. After I arrived, I looked into the other classes so I could see some of the gap I needed to fill in terms of  reading stories, creating google slides, and working more on my public speaking.  It took about 4 hours after school to prepare. In addition, today’s time log will be 5 hours.

  Journal 8     Last night I did my two hours of reading to enable me to catch up with the other students, so I have an understanding of the book so I know how to better assist the student with their papers.  Today on May 16, 2023. I had an Mri appointment, so I had to miss my human rights and 9th grade English class, but communicated with Jennifer, and Morgan Salathe so they could tell me what I can make up for out of class today. They communicated with me what they were needing so I could better know how to assist them. In addition, I went to my last class today which was the Russian class With Jennifer Baker. It was an hour block were I mostly took control and organized the class. I told them a little bit about the short reading last class Memoirs of a Madman. I gave them a little bit of what I read and just made connections with how the reading relates to human rights. Afterwards, I gave the student time to work on their projects that were assigned to t...
