Describe in a paragraph a recent teaching experience you are making a connection to (i.e., Explain the event, not the connection): In my Level 2 Field Experience, I noticed that when my mentor teacher wanted her students to be quiet, she would just stand there and look at them until they all noticed that she was waiting for them to stop talking. Once they had noticed she was waiting there, they would start to listen. I also noticed that some students would try to help their classmates out by getting their attention and holding their pointer finger up by their mouth to get them to stop talking. It took quite some time for the whole class to realize that they needed to be quiet, but in the end the gestures always worked. 2.

Get them to pretend to draw their pistols. Say "how do you say..." and a word in their mother tongue.

Later in his dorm, Neil is ordered by his grumpy and domineering father (Kurtwood Smith) to drop an extracurricular class in order to maintain good grades so the boy may become a doctor much as he has done. Neil is under pressure from his stern father's will. Also, Mr. Perry tells Neil that Mrs. Perry also wants him to become a doctor, which further worries the boy. A little later, Todd tells Neil that he is in a similar situation with his parents involving his older brother who also attended Welton a few years ago, graduated, and attended Yale Law School and became a lawyer and his parents want the exact same thing for him. But Todd does not have the courage to tell his parents that he instead wants to be a writer, not a lawyer.
