I was kind of excited when Sal was saying to sit in circle and something to do about groups. I like what we did in class that he told to write about different groups we fit in like friend, family, school, religious,etc. I love to do that because we are doing kind of same thing in English like different roles of us in different groups. We did the same thing first we write down the different groups. After, we wrote what's our role in particular group? When everybody is finish, Sal ask students different questions about important about our groups. Like why do we pick family as a major groups. who we are and explain to class. It was very nice conversation and I learned a lot from other students like how they chose their role and why? Also, some pick family, some friends, school, religion,etc. So, this is very interesting to me that how people are connected to different people in their life. This is one way to get to know each other, learn something new and think about what should be our next step to do something good about our self. For me, I choose family because they had been supported through my life, make good decisions, try to teach me a good lessons about life and they struggle for me. I would say family is most important for me and I think everybody us too. First time I came to USA 2 years ago it was very hard for me to communicate with different people, hard to make friends, try to learn more English, get to know each other etc. I go to temple mostly every Sunday and teach American born Indian kids about what is Indian culture and teach them out native language. How to write and read. This is very good experience ever I had.
Second most important thing was that we divided into two different groups in class today was Black vs. colorful. We have to write about why they other groups were colorful clothes. People from my groups came up with good ideas like weather, fashion, they woke up early,etc. But from the different group they were being rude to us means we wear black because we are down in life, we look Skinner, devil and some quoted like that show us how they thing about ours. we learn something about In-out groups. Students always think different about opposite groups was kind of harmful. Also, I would say about I think does not matter what you wear because sometimes people think about their race, ethnicity, and thinking. However, I don't like that to separate from other people. Easy to forgot things but nothing is hard to remember. some people even does not care just seat there and do nothing. But from this is very bad that people does not do well in this activity.
Thank you.
