Creating Art

 Future 

Awsome

Maintaining stability/ accountability of one another

 Imagine the possibilities

 Loving without boundaries/restrictions

 Yearbook (older generations teaching the younger one's about our                           history)





Family comes in different forms. In the cycle of liberation it shows how the "core" is where the values lie within an individual. As I began to web some of those same aspects such as self-love, hope, self-esteem, balance, joy, support, security, authentic love of others were apart of the web (Diversity and social justice, figure 7.1 p(53). As mentioned in the media file the story of Quinn, family (dad) had a major impact on the way Quinn felt about himself and the choices he made. Family, particularly his "mom" also was there to provide assistance and resilience to get her son some help no matter the cost (Laureate Education, Inc.(n.d.).
Us as teachers/ educators have a responsibility to teach diversity within the classroom and with our families.

  1. Great way in expressing what family means and how important family can be. Family provides opportunities for great success. The same is considered in a classroom, the teacher and students are family. The more positivity in the classroom, the greater the opportunity is for success.

  2. Hi Takeisha, I adored your acrostic poem. Family is a great support and coping mechanism. I love the last line of your poem, "Yearbook'(older generations teaching the younger ones about our history)" This was very inspiring and related closely to the media presentation this week about leaning on loved ones for resilience and prosperity in life.

  3. Hello, Takeisha. I love your web of family and how everything is interlocked. I also like how your related it to the Cycle of Liberation and how the family is the core of a child's life.
