School Violence and Vandalism is the social challenge that I choose, because I lived thru that with my son. In the daycare that he was, there was a kid that just to bully him all the time and the teacher supposedly didn’t see it. What I with my son, was to encourage him that he could stop it; he would said that this kid was stronger than him and I put him in karate classes, but did work. I spoke to the teachers and director but they didn’t do anything to fix it. At the end, I change my son to another daycare. I did all possible to help him, of course this have to start in the house and then to have the help of teachers at school. I think in conjunction we can help our kids to stop school violence.

Ch. 3 - Which area of Howard Gardner's multiple intelligences do you feel is your area of strength?
In the area that I feel more confortable is the interpersonal intelligence. I like to help people, to make them
feel confortable and not to be afraid. Where I work, I able to just some of the skills that represent this
intelligense, I work in a hospital and sometimes people comes sick and they feel unconfortable and angry.
We need to make them feel good and to aliviate their pain. In here I can put in practice all the skills a been
learning. It will be the same in the classroom, need to confort and make them feel that they can do everything
and capable to learn.

Reflection #2 Change
One practice or activity that I would like to change is the Art department. I would like to get the kids more
involve into the arts, it has been proved that the mind of a kid with music or art open more to educaton.
discover that when my child is doing homework and listen to classic music, he relax and open his mind to
what he is going. I know that today the schools are cutting these activities to give more time to prepare for
the test, but with this the kids are more with more stress. I would like to incorporate a daily music class
along with the regular classes that way they have a distraction.
