As you read, make notes about your initial responses, questions, and insights. Use your notes to write a well-organized essay. Prompt A publishing company’s editors are asking high school students to write articles about topics that teens need to know about. They plan to publish a book for junior high school students. This book will have sections that focus on such topics as how to succeed in school, dating, how to get a job, how to balance studying, work, and social life, etc. One section will focus on the topic of friendship. This is an important section, and the editors know that friendship is essential to success during high school. They would like you to write an article for this section, focusing on an aspect of friendship, such as • how to be a good friend, • how to make friends, • how to make a good friend, • what to look for in a friend, • the best friend you have ever had, or • any other approach that might be of interest. Write an article about friendship. The editors are looking for articles that • would be of interest and value to young teens; • provide interesting details about how and why friendship is important; • draw information from a range of sources, including the article, “With a Little Help from Our Friends;” and • clearly, concisely provide interesting, useful information.

Pre-Assessment • 2/3 Writing an Informative/Explanatory Essay (continued) With a Little Help from Our Friends According to 20th-century psychologist Erik Erikson, humans develop their identities— their conscious sense of themselves—throughout their lifetimes. Erikson believed that psychosocial development proceeds through eight stages that span from early childhood through old age. Each stage, he said, poses a conflict, and that conflict forces humans to make decisions about who they are and how they want to live. The first four stages occur during childhood, and the last three during adulthood. At each stage, Erikson said, people re-define themselves. One of the most important stages, Stage Five, occurs during adolescence. At this stage, the conflict centers around self-identity, as bodies grow and change almost as rapidly as relationships. The child turns into an adult, and family life is replaced with social life. Adolescents become more independent, and they must figure out how the world functions outside the familiar parameters of home and family. Before Stage Five, children learn their roles from their families. Patterns among parents, siblings, and extended family define who and what they are: the oldest son may be treated quite differently from the twin, for example, and ideas about how men and women interact are derived from watching parents. During childhood, friendships are often based on proximity: friends live in their neighborhoods, go to the same schools, take part in the same activities, have parents who spend time together. In early adolescence, however, the process for selecting friends changes radically. Beginning in middle school, friends are chosen because of their personalities, common interests, values, and social status. Teens begin to divide their social connections among acquaintances and friends, and initially, in early adolescence, those who are regarded as “friends” are similar to themselves. The early part of Stage Five is when cliques are formed. At this point in their lives, teens define themselves by surrounding themselves with what they hope are mirror images … only better. Their friends need to share their values, opinions, and styles and, more importantly, they need to model the best in what the teen wants to be. Early adolescence is such a time of physical and emotional change that young teens tend to see peers as either good or bad. No one is in-between … especially themselves. This is a time when most teens feel that all eyes are on them, waiting to find their flaws. Through friends, teens learn about social standing and power—who’s in, who’s out, how to lead and how to follow, what’s fair and what’s not. They learn that different people and different situations call for a wide range of behaviors, and over time, teens come to understand the viewpoints of people who are not from the same background, the same family, or experiences.

Pre-Assessment • 3/3 Writing an Informative/Explanatory Essay (continued) As teens get older and more comfortable in the bigger world, their need for “mirror friends,” and for control and constant validation diminishes. Friendships change—and, often, friends change as well. As they mature, teens learn about the necessary gives and takes demanded by an ever-widening set of social interactions. They learn how to set up rules, how to listen to things both spoken and unspoken, how to weigh alternatives, and how to make decisions when faced with dilemmas. They experience fear, anger, aggression, and rejection. They learn how to win, how to lose, what’s appropriate, what’s not. Throughout adolescence, friends serve as a bridge between the predictability of family and the myriad of demands and opportunities of the outside world. Friends provide opportunities to see the world in new ways. Since they come from different families, friends offer each other chances explore possible roles, weigh alternative ways of being and doing things, and learn to accept differences. Through friends, teens also learn to develop empathy for the plight of others. They learn social skills—the give and take and compromise necessary for adult relationships. They learn to understand and consider the needs of a myriad of others, and they learn to balance these needs with their own. During adolescence, friends need friends who are respectful, trustworthy, and, above all, good listeners. Teens often need to talk about their experiences and challenges, and they need friends who will celebrate their increasing insight and independence while being open to new ideas and possibilities. For teenagers, good friends can be like a personal support group. Good friends often replace parents because good friends share common experiences. They can share information about physical changes, social roles and rules, music, clothing, appearance, and other factors of adolescent life that parents just don’t understand. To have friends, one must be a friend, listening and watching to offer solace and support, challenge and protection. Friends acknowledge difficulty and listen deeply. Friends must be good listeners and be encouraging, but, as the teen matures, friends must also be honest enough to talk about conflicts, respect differences, and apologize when appropriate. These behaviors are difficult for many, especially those who are grappling with issues of their own. At all stages of life, friends are reciprocal relationships that foster growth, exploration, flexibility, and, hopefully, fun. They are especially important during adolescence. According to Erikson, having friends and learning to be a friend are the essential conflicts of adolescent life.

  • The History of the Hawaiian Culture August 15, 2011
    Annex C – The History of the Hawaiian Culture August 15, 2011 Origins of the Ancient Hawaiians and Their Culture The first major Hawaiian island, Kauai emerged from the Pacific only six million years ago. This was millions of years before modern man walked out of Africa, but a blip in time compared to the 4.5 billion year history of our ancient planet. The Hawaiian Islands were formed above a 40 million year old volcano creating a hot spot under the Pacific Plate. As the pacific plate moves to the Northwest, the static hotspot continues to create islands. The effect of this is an island chain, one of which, the big Island, became the 5th highest island in the world. The next island in the chain, the seamount of Loihi is building and will surface in 10,000 years. The isolation of the Hawaiian Islands in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, and the wide range of environments to be found on high islands located in and near the tropics, has resulted in a vast array of endemic flora and fauna. Hawaii has more endangered species per square mile than anywhere else. Ancient tribal Polynesians arrived on this virgin scene after long, amazing sea voyages in their double-hulled canoes. The early Polynesians were an adventurous seafaring people with highly developed navigational skills. They used the sun, stars and wave patterns to find their directions. Ancient Polynesians even created incredible maps of wave patterns by binding sticks together. Bird flight paths and cloud patterns were used to discern where islands were located.

You will see. I hope you had a great holiday feast on Christmas, if you celebrate Christmas, and on New Year’s, if you celebrated the New Year at this time. It wouldn’t have been the same without its festival foods. In this course we’ll see why that is so. Anthropology of Food Welcome, p. 2 Of course, it wouldn’t be Christmas in Minnesota without talk of lutefisk [literally “lye fish”].

Others like to arrive at a dinner party early, and in other ways they’re “pre- crastinators”. I am sending this note out early to make it more convenient for the pre-crastinators to order textbooks on-line (if that is an attractive option for you), and/or to let you get started reading one or other of the interesting books we have for the class (if you are the kind of person who likes to do that sort of thing). If none of these options apply to you, and you feel like a little end-of-holiday procrastination, just relax and enjoy the wonderful winter weather, and, the rest of your break.

Jill Vollmer, 906 5th Avenue NE, asked if there were a noise ordinance and referred to cars in her neighborhood causing her home to shake. Chief Philipp said, yes, there is a noise ordinance. He advised people to help identify perpetrators by identifying cars, noting license plate numbers and being willing to sign a citation. Citizens could note a particular problem time or car and then the area could be patrolled more. Asked by Council Member Goodnature if the noise ordinance refers to noise decibels, Chief Philipp replied that it did not refer to decibels, but the ordinance is a good one which uses a number of descriptive terms.

    A LITTLE TASTE OF EVERYWHERE: Delicious, Nutritious Recipes Made Just for You Cooking in the Time of Covid Welcome to our cookbook! We are students from “Cook. Eat. Write. Repeat.,” a UTSA Writing Program course in partnership with the UTSA Honors College. Our class took on the challenge of finding a way to cook together and create a cookbook during the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic. We met using Zoom and decided that each week, one of us would share a recipe and record an instruction video to accompany our recipes. We shared our recipes through the Honors College social media and on our own Instagram page. We also had the privilege to work with The Paisano, the independent student publication serving the UTSA community. The Paisano editors helped us publish our recipes and videos on their website as well as on their YouTube Channel. In addition to our recipes, we included cultural and historical articles about our dishes. Throughout the course, we discovered that each of us had a diverse cultural background and interest in food, and we wanted to share our experiences with you through this cookbook. With the help of Heather Riddle from UTSA’s Writing Program, we gathered all the recipes we created to give you the opportunity to explore the world inside your own kitchen.
