  10. 1. I really had fun during our two visits at St. Lukes. Our new project with First Person American is great and I’m learning a lot but at the same time having a lot of fun and writing my first big story.

    2. This was a completely different class from my other classes and its kind of relaxing and all the stuff we do is fun. I liked the class and I can’t honestly thing about something I didn’t like.

    3. This class has definitely changed me some ways. I’ve started thinking about some Human Rights I never thought about before and I started thinking about changes we are suppose to help be produced in the world today.

    4. We covered a lot, and I’m sure we didn’t miss/skip anything.

    5. You as a teacher should keep the class just as it is, keep control over us as much as possible and let us work on great projects as you did in the first marking period.

    6. Suggestion for my classmates is to keep learning, working hard (turning the work in on time, we don’t want tests on weekly bases) and having fun of course.

    7. Fill in the blanks..."From class this marking period, one thing I will take is knowledge, respect and experience and one thing I will give is respect, love and peace."

    I think we can do the activity in the school to represent about our class because most of the student don’t know about the human rights class and our activities. Not only for the higher level English classes but also for the entire school as much as we can teach them that what’s going on in the world about human rights.

  20. I enjoyed our relationship with St. Lukes school and our trip there, also I enjoyed doing community service in St Lukes school.

    I enjoyed everything that we did

    I feel that I am more passionated to fight for human rights then I was before, and I know that bulling is one of the most common problem and I feel like fighting against bulling even more

    I think we are covering the most important things

    This class is good enough

    I think that all of us should hand over our homework on time especially the one from First Person American

    From class this marking period, one thing I will take is knowledge and one thing I will give is my respect.

  21. One thing I enjoyed doing this marking period was when we did the assembly and taught the others student about bullying and how to prevent it because it was a new experience for me and I learned a lot from it . I don’t think they were anything specifics that I didn’t enjoy . I do believe that I have changed form my participation in this class since last semester . Everyday I tell myself to be respectful to everyone . Something I guess you can do to make the class better is probably doing more workshops because we get a lot of information and experience from doing them . An advice I can give to my classmates to make their experience in this class more meaningful is to just be open to learn new things and again respect one another . From class this marking period , one thing I will take is to be courageous and one thing i will give is respect .

  23. hat did you enjoy about class this marking period? Why? Please
    I enjoyed working with our bodies, going to their school (even if i could not). The posts are very interesting. I loved to do community service in my buddy’s school, St Luke’s. I loved the theme of that party. I really liked the workshop with first person American.
    I enjoy everything, but what I enjoyed the less was writing posts.
    I feel that i have changed a lot, now i can see clearly what human right means and i learn to fight for that I think is right.
    I think that we cover a lot, maybe we miss to do a presentation one more time in class about what we learned in first person american.
    It is a very good class already.
    To be more interested in what we are learning because we do not learn this just for pass a class, we learn it to have a great experience and knowledge about human rights in our life.

  25. What did you enjoy about class this marking period? Why? Please refer to specific activities, projects, workshops, etc.

    I am enjoying the workshop for teaching students in our school about Human Rights. And also, we finally went to St. Luke’s, which was very impressive. Last but not least, we are having a workshop with First American, in which we will have potential to influence others by telling our stories.
    What didn't you enjoy and why? Please be specific.

    I wish we could have more time on St. Luke’s. I did not have chance to visit their school, which is really unfortunately. And I wish we could have time to go to class together with our bodies.
    Do you feel you have changed in any way as a result of your participation in this class? If yes, how?

    Yes, I do. After I participate in this Human Rights class. I feel like I am more involving in Social Justice, Rights for Immigrants. I do think my thought goes to the high level.
    Were there any activities/projects/topics that I didn't cover that you want us to cover?Which ones?

    I think we can have some Human Rights issues out side of United States. Like last year, we were having a film-maker who did documentary film in Middle-East.
    What can I do to make the class better for you (aside from no homework J )? Please be specific.

    I think it would be great that we can discus our trip schedule together. I am losing my AP classes by taking a trip.
    What advice can you give to your classmates to make their experience in this class more meaningful?

    I think we should take this class seriously. After a term of studying Human Rights, everybody is taking a relax somehow.

    I really enjoyed to have a buddy from St. Luke, I hope Ms. Mann will continue doing this with the future students because this is a experience I will never forget.
    What didn't you enjoy and why? Please be specific.
    To be honest every day in the class or in the computer room is funny, this is the most exciting class of the week for me.
    Do you feel you have changed in any way as a result of your participation in this class? If yes, how?
    Of course! Now I have a different thinking about immigrants, I know that everyone is equal and that I deserve respect as everyone else. I know more about the problems of our society and I feel that I can make a difference.
    Were there any activities/projects/topics that I didn't cover that you want us to cover?Which ones?
    I don’t think so, personally I think that Ms. Mann did a great job.
    What can I do to make the class better for you (aside from no homework)? Please be specific.
    Maybe work with more and diverse organizations, just as we did with ADL, St. Luke, etc. It’s really funny and we learn a lot about human rights.
    What advice can you give to your classmates to make their experience in this class more meaningful?
    If we work together we can surpass any obstacle. I’ve learned that the union makes the force, it doesn’t matter if we are weak alone but if we work as a group nobody can stop us.
