My day at westwood was fun. i helped the teacher check the kids homework and read to them.
after that something impressing happened the ms.gomez pulled out a box and asked me if i could help her and i said yesm ofcourse she pulled out 7 itouches and asked me to download some game apps for them like adding and subtracting and stuff like that i was so impressed because all the kids in there knew what it was and they're in kindergarden! and they all knew how to use them and stuff.. technology is becoming a big part of education because the kids think its cool just by using them and they are also learning while having fun!

my thoughts about yesterday were good because everybody stayed calmed and did not panick and they guided us outside making sure there was nobody left in the building. knowing that all the senior class was there with only a few teachers they all split up and made sure that we were all outside.

when tony was talking to us about how his life was and everything that happened to him, it all lead back to steriotyping just because they saw that he was maxican they automatically thought he was dumb and just an illegal person which was not true.
now a day people use alot of steriotyping not only by the race but also by age, family background and education. all those listed abouve give other people a chance to look down on somebody else for them to feel like they're more powerful.
but steriotyping is not correct because not all the people of the same race is the same.
same as age and so on.
