My
name is Daana Howell I was born in Manhattan New York. Now I'm 16 years
old and I'm currently living in the Bronx. I am a very interesting person
I like to explore the world and learn new exciting things I attend a small
school in the Bronx called Bronx Guild. In my school I attend a variety
of activities including a program that prevents violence. There I am a peer
mediator; my job is to resolve conflicts between my peers. This program
is a good way to teach me how to handle many different types of conflicts.
I also am apart of a program called ˜Building With Books." We
do service projects to help out the community and the environment. We raise
money to help build schools in a part of Africa called Mali. I enjoy dedicating
my time to help others then myself. This program teaches me how to appreciate
how unfortunate most people are. My school is based on learning threw apprenticeship,
so I choose to do my apprenticeship at an elementary school called 230.
I teach special Ed first graders. Working with children really teaches me
to deal with stressful situations and learning how to work with mental and
physical disability. |
