Welcome to my blog!! My name is Erica and I am a friendly gal that enjoys nature, family time, friend time, but most of all laughing time!! :) This blog mostly documents my learning experience from senior year! :) I originally started this blog for my AP English Literature and Composition class but have made it my own! You will most likely see post about my interest, opinions, and English course! Senior year is over so my post will be on my interest and opinion only.

Teaching in Samoa -- good grades vs. good people: Jessica Baker at TEDxL...
TEACHING IN SAMOA- GOOD GRADES V.S GOOD PEOPLE: JESSICA BAKER
"You can't teach or measure kindness and empathy on a test."
"We need to abandon this idea that all people can be judged off of their test scores."
"Stop teaching to the test and start teaching to the kids."
"It's time we start valuing kindness, empathy, community, over academic success."
"There is more to life than numbers."
