The Effect One May Have on You

Two distinct educators both have their own specific manners of instructing, however, their relationship and association they have with their understudies can have an effect on their lives. The two short stories that were perused in class were rotating around educators, both were unique yet were comparable as it were. The first that was perused was “Long Long After School,” by Ernest Buckler. This short story was about these two men who had an instructor in the third grade, named Miss Tretheway. One recollects how delightful their educator was an alternate recalls how contrarily the instructor affected them. The other short story that was perused in class was “A Teachers Reward,” by Robert Phillips. This short story is about a man who used to get his knuckles rapped by his educator, Miss Scofield. He had so much disdain and contempt towards her as he was dealt with so inadequately. A couple of years after the fact he returns to meet Miss Scofield and explodes her activities by hitting her knuckles with a hammer. Two diverse short stories demonstrated to the peruser the amount of an engraving an instructor can leave on an understudy and to what extent it remains with them.

 

While growing up, one takes in a ton about themselves as well as other people in their lives. Grown-ups can have a huge effect during this procedure. While perusing both of these short stories, an individual could get on how both of the fundamental character’s lives were reflected upon because of their instructor. In the short story, “Long Long After School” Wes’ companion’s notice, “When I addressed him about Miss Tretheway, an inquisitive change came into his face. You couldn’t state he turned pale, however his stillness was very not quite the same as the traditional one on such events” (Buckler 1). In this statement, one can perceive the amount of an impact Miss Tretheway had on Wes. Wes was the understudy that constantly respected Miss Tretheway for everything that she did and cherished her. Raybe from the short story, “A Teachers Reward” carried on with a troublesome life and his instructor growing up just exacerbated it. A case of this is when Raybe clarified how, “You used to rap my knuckles with your ruler, recollect?” (Phillips 1). Here you can see a statement that reflected upon Raybe’s past. His knuckles used to be hit by a ruler from his instructor and this memory has stayed with him. Generally speaking, the two instructors affected the kid’s lives either decidedly or adversely while they were in school. The methodologies by these two educators towards their understudies have gained stamps and experiences on every understudy’s lives.

 

The regard one gives are the regard one will get. While growing up, Wes needed to manage being dark, and segregation. Miss Tretheway was the special case who was there for him. Raybe grew up being a shrouded vagrant, and he was poor. His instructor rapped his hands and ridiculed him continually to wear a grimy shirt. Miss Tretheway was one of the specific instructors who guarded Wes in his needs. Wes recalls how, “Miss Tretheway tagged along and all of you ran. She helped me get the stuff and shake the snow off, she ran with me ideal to Mrs. Bank’s entryway and disclosed to her what had occurred. I would never have made Mrs. Banks trust I didn’t steamed the stuff myself” (Buckler 3). This statement can bolster the theme sentence since it demonstrates to the peruser that Miss Tretheway, was really the main individual who comprehended and perceived how Wes felt and managed separation. Miss Scofield did not focus on how a portion of her understudies battled, “Yes yet at the same time and all, it’s dissimilar to me not have recollected or realized that one of my young men was a vagrant. You wouldn’t fret on the off chance that I utilize that word, do you, Mr… Raybe? Loads of individuals are delicate about words” (Phillips 2). This statement can bolster the subject sentence since it indicates the amount Miss Scofield did not by any stretch of the imagination consider her understudies battling. Both young men managed extremely troublesome battles while growing up. One battled with segregation, while the other struggled against being a vagrant and not having much cash. Having their educators bolster is the thing that they both required at the time, and just a single could get that.

 

By the day’s end, one will love somebody and one won’t. for this situation, Wes from, “Long Long After School,” adored and valued his educator, Miss Tretheway, while then again, Raybe disdained Miss Scofield as she rapped her understudy’s knuckles. In “Long Long After School,” we can perceive the amount Wes esteemed and regarded Miss Tretheway. She was a kind soul and Wes truly appreciated her conversation. Miss Tretheway showed at least a bit of kindness, “She wasn’t extremely anything. Her heart may have been quick, yet there was dependably that inquisitive exactness and economy in her face” (Buckler 3). This statement can identify with the subject sentence since it demonstrates how Miss Tretheway had a gigantic heart, and particularly for her understudies. Her kind soul was appreciated by Wes in the short story. Raybe from, “A Teachers Reward,” disliked his instructor, and his solitary method to return to her was a reprisal. Raybe had managed being punished by his educator Miss Scofield, “You Punished me for everything that occurred. Be that as it may, the most exceedingly terrible was the day of the words on the divider. You hit me so hard my knuckles drained. My hands were sore as bubbles for a considerable length of time” (Phillips 4). Wes and Raybe, both had altogether different encountering and sentiments towards their educators while growing up. While returning and either visiting the educators grave, to indicate regard and respect for her, or heading off to the instructor’s home and looking for retaliation, both young men had experienced a battle while in this short story.

 

Two diverse short stories demonstrated to the peruser the amount of an engraving an instructor can leave on an understudy and to what extent it remains with them. In the wake of perusing both short stories, one can perceive how much help Miss Tretheway has for Wes, while in “A Teachers Reward,” Miss. Scofield did not enjoy her understudies that much and rebuffed them in the event that they irritate her. The two instructors left an enormous space on their understudies. Regardless of whether it was when Miss Tretheway made a special effort to help Wes when he was battling in the snow, or when Miss Scofield rapped Raybe’s knuckles on numerous occasions in class. Both of those activities that were made by the educators will be recalled by these two understudies. Both negative and positive activities seen and experienced engraved in the brains of youthful kids have the ability to change the mentality of a tyke influencing their adulthood and how one responds in the case of looking for reprisal or paying regards to their good examples.

Blackout Poem – “Death of a Salesman”

In the play, “Death of a Salesman” by Arthur Miller, it is based around a man named Willy Loman, who is a traveling salesman living in New York in the 1950’s. He lives with his wife Linda, who is a very caring woman and is concerned about Willy’s mental illness. He also has two sons, Biff and Happy, who are two years apart. Willy is struggling to finically support his family of four, and constantly worries about his son’s not becoming successful with their lives. In this play, we are able to dive deep into the American Dream, and see the reality behind it. The play “Death of a Salesman,” fits within the genre of tragedy because Willy Loman is trying to live the American Dream, which caused him to have such a high standard for his sons, which ended up ruining their relationships. Willy believes being well liked, well connected are what really matters when it comes to success and achieving the American Dream. But, in reality, all those things you need to work for, which Willy was unable to understand. The blackout poem is based around the main character, Willy. Willy undergoes fairly a lot in the play, and by reflecting the blackout poem around him, and his decisions that he made throughout helped create a poem that shows his regret and shame he felt during the play. Willy kept that huge secret to himself for 15 years that he had cheated on his wife until his son Biff discovers the woman and Willy in a hotel room together. Biff’s image of his dad changed from being a godlike figure came crashing down as finds out his father has cheated on his mother. In the poem, it goes on about how hurt his wife is and how his actions damage her. The tree in the blackout poem symbolizes development, and the heart that is connected to the tree roots represents no matter how much a person can change, their actions will still be with one, that is why the tree roots are wrapped around the heart.

DOAS Monologues

The following is an example I created of a monologue for the character of… from “Death of a Salesman.”
I am a man who is powerfully made and well built. I have many goals that I want to achieve, but my brother Biff has accomplished more than me. I have been very successful with my job, and have suffered from my father’s expectations, which have pushed me to please my father, but as my father starts to lose his mind, I have focused less on pleasing him and been more self-absorbed. I always live in the shadow of my older brother Biff, who is less self-assured.

This is a monologue because…
It is uninterrupted, and reveals something about the character

This monologue would fit in the current plot when…
When him and Biff were in the bedroom together talking
