III. Writing in the Discipline as a Platform in Education for Sustainable Development

       Education for Sustainable Development”(ESD) is 

a vision of education that seeks to empower people to 

assume responsibility for creating  a sustainable future. 

Central to ESD is the concept of culture as an essential 

 underlying theme. Recognizing that there is no “single 

route” to sustainable development and that perception of, and ideas for sustainability are different, participants 

need to work together to negotiate the process of achieving sustainability

IV. Reflection of English 121

Risks I took this year as an English student included writing my “Where I’m From” poem. I had never written anything like that in my life and it took a lot of personal information from me and condensed it into a poem. I liked the format of the writing and I think in the future I may try to use it again.
This year I have grown as a writer and a reader. I was pushed to go out of my comfort zone at times, like when we built a shelter outside to see what it was like for the characters in “Lord of the Flies”! That was definitely a new experience. When we were first introduced to read “Hamlet”, I felt very unsure because I knew how difficult Shakespeare was to understand. Mr. Christopher Blasurca definitely helped me to understand the hidden meanings in Shakespeare’s work because we had a lot of time in class to discuss the different chapters of the book. It was also helpful to watch the movie so I could see someone else’s take on the play. Something that was really fun with the Hamlet unit was acting out a scene from the play. I got to do one of my favorite scenes which was the gravedigger scene.  I played the gravedigger

V. Integration of Education for Sustainable Development to English 121

          They had detailed knowledge of their local community and could operate safely and successfully in it. Their knowledge of their community however, and how they used it were very different from that of adults. (e.g their knowledge  of the recreation areas, who used them, and how safe they were).  This knowledge  was gained through exploration and paly, exchanges with peers and families through stories, and by renewed contact with each other, with older children, with adults, and with the community.
