Saint Report
Hi, I’m Clayton Stuhrenberg! I am a junior at Palacios High School and am going to talk about Saint Isidore. I chose this saint because he kinda reminds me of myself. But first, you need to know his story. This is Isidore’s life story.
Isidore was actually born into a family made up of saints that lived during the sixth century in Spain. Both of his brothers, Leander and Fulgentius and his sister, Florentina, are all recognized as saints in Spain. It was also a family of pioneers and they had a ton of determination, with his strong and great brothers serving as bishops. On the other hand, the sister was an abbess.
Because of the high standards set and other reasons, life was not easy for Isidore. On the contrary, his brother

He would end up working side by side with his brother and after Leander's death, Isidore would complete many of the projects that his brother began including a missal and breviary.
Isidore was able to separate the abusive way he was taught from the joy of learning. He didn't avoid learning after what his brother did but embraced education and worked out any problems he had. Isidore moved past his past and became known as, “The best teacher is Spain.”.
His absolute love of learning leads him to promote the creation of a seminary in every diocese of Spain. He wanted to make sure that everyone had access to a place where they could learn. Furthermore, he made sure that all branches of knowledge, even including the arts and medicine, were taught in these seminaries.
His encyclopedia of knowledge or the Etymologies was a popular textbook for about a period of nine centuries. He also had written books about grammar, astronomy, and geography, as well as theology. At the point when the Arabs took the investigation of Aristotle back to Europe, this was just the same old thing new to Spain on the grounds that Isidore's receptive outlook had as of now reintroduced the savant to understudies
He had planned to talk about his book Macho, but when he faced the crowd of teachers, his experience at school came back into his mind. He said he had faced a lot of abuse and his efforts to overcome bad teaching and become a writer. He admired good teachers with all his heart but criticized bad teachers. That presentation was not what the audience expected. Some reacted cruelly and left, but most of audience stayed and listened to him. After that, Victor was invited to give more speeches to let the audience know what worked in their education system.
Saint Martin de Porres was born in Lima, Peru on December 9, 1579 and died November 3, 1639. He is the son of a Spanish nobleman, Don Juan de Porres, and a freed slave Ana Velazquez from Panama, Saint Martin de Porres is the patron saint of interracial harmony . He had a sister named Juana born two years later in 1581, after the birth of his sister the father abandoned the family, He grew up in poverty, and when his mother could not support him, Martin was confined to a primary school for two years, then became a barber surgeon.
A little about his religion is they have a pope that leads their whole church, but there are bishops in their church buildings so the pope doesn’t have to go to all the Roman Catholic churches all over the world at the time they start their meetings to talk to the people that goes to that church building. There’s a prophet that lead of over another religion that teaches about Christ just like Roman Catholics and that also has bishops so the prophet doesn’t have to go to all the churches of his religion . Roman Catholic believes that Jesus was resurrected but not that he can forgive you of your sins. Roman Catholic don’t believe that if you sin that you have eternal life or go to heaven. Juan Gerardi was ordained a priest after the second world war. He came back from the United states to his hometown of Guatemala to be ordained a priest on December 21, 1946.Juan Gerardi attended the school for clergy's or a particular church for his religion which is Roman Catholic. Which is also called a synod. Synod is also made up of another division of a particular churches. Such as Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism and many other religions. There are other religions that have schools for their own religion. Not only does Roman Catholics have a school, but others religions have schools for their specific religion and belief. The religion you are in, you can go to that school or college. You can also go to a community college. But if you go to a college that teaches your religion, it is more spiritual than going to a community
Seen by his separation between Church and state and also his usage of Pegan-converted feast days as moments of great preaching and formation of the masses
From the beginning of the novel to the end of the end novel Ishmael goes through many changes. When, he is first recruited by the army he is afraid of a gun or even the thought of taking someone’s life away. Ishmael began to transition from a regular young boy to a deadly soldier after he was recruited and the lieutenants there kept implanting the notation that they need revenge.
He used his religious values as the basis of his works and his motivation to strive to unite
To foster an environment in which all can grow in their knowledge, understanding and commitment to the Catholic faith, and that of the wider Christian community.
"…I came to idolize my grammar school teachers. I began by imitating their accents, using their diction, trusting their every direction. The very first facts they dispensed, I grasped with awe. Any book they told me to read, I read – then waited for them to tell me which books I enjoyed" (Rodriguez 625). Rodriguez allowed his teachers to tell him how to think; he became completely submissive to their every belief. As Freire stated the teacher’s task is, "to fill the students with the contents of his narration – contents which are detached from reality, disconnected from the totality that endangered them and could give them significance" (Freire 348). Instead of having his own opinion, Rodriguez permitted his instructors the privilege of reasoning for him.
I had the privilege to have learned Spanish from an incredibly smart, and charismatic teacher turned into Cuban abuelito named Pedro, While I had studied Spanish before, I never received this sort of individualized and thorough teaching; every question I had would result in a 10 minute explanation with historical and factual reasons in the response.
He taught history and kept a large collection of history books at home, from Egyptian history to Babylonian history. Later, he taught his children and grandchildren the traditions, language, and culture of Spain.
Following this, the third objection to the question of whether or not the law is always aimed at the end of a common good arises. The objector in this scenario quotes a medieval source named Isidore. Isidore, in one of his texts, is basically saying that if the law is based on reason, whatever is based on reason will be the law. Following this, the conclusion is made that the law is not only directed to the good of all, but also to the private good of an individual (obj. 3). At first glance, this makes sense, but Thomas gives a clearer understanding of how to read it. Often times, to relate to our limited capacity to understand, we need examples and metaphors to make things a bit clearer. An example that came to mind is as follows: Say that Ryan Franklin is feeling ill, in fact, he’s caught a cold. Now, it would be
Commonly the most widely renowned teachers in history often are remembered as the most intriguing teachers in history. Scholars often ask, what made their teaching style so different, or what was so unique about this educator? Perhaps the most investigated teachers of the world often left the smallest written mark on the world. No exception to this, is the philosopher, Socrates. Widely known as one of the greatest Athenian philosophers, he never wrote anything down, and is theorized as illiterate. The only record of this man lies in his student, Plato’s Dialogues, as well as references from other writers of the
Reading about how the Jesuits became involved in education has great meaning to me because it has allowed me the opportunity to continue my education at a Jesuit university. It is interesting to read and learn about how things were years ago and how they shaped into the way they are today. In the reading, “How the First Jesuits became involved in Education” by John O’Malley, it says, “Its embodiment up to 1733 has been criticized for being elitist, paternalistic, backward looking, religiously bigoted.” Just like anything else in the universe, the Jesuit religion did not start out perfectly. The Jesuits eventually found a conclusion, every human being to attain personal, inward freedom. This allowed humans to be able follow the path they believe God set before them and meet their own religious needs. People grew to love and see things earlier feared as a gift of God- these are things I hope to accomplish in my time studying the Jesuit
John Dewey once said “Education is not preparation for life; Education is life itself." Meaning that learning is an active process that should occur to enhance one 's living and understanding thereof. When one only views education as a temporary thing they miss the big picture , and fail to grasp the what life truly is. Paulo Freire believes in having the opportunity to discover for oneself all that the world has to offer with the slight guidance from a teacher. He also says that “Education must begin with the solution of the teacher-student contradiction, by recoiling the poles of the contradiction so that both are simultaneously teachers and students.” Freire introduces the idea that we can and should all learn from each other, that no one person is ever higher in the world of education. We all have a unique perspective and take on things, and teachers should allow us to discover and interpret for ourselves.
With this in mind, not only the environment plays the most important function in the restoration of natural learning, but so does the recognition of the individual. This not includes the didactic materials available for learning but also includes the nature and predisposition of the teacher. A teacher who is unkind is forever remembered and imprinted on the experience of the child, and so it is that no teacher should enter the profession without being thoroughly researched by the place of employment.
