If you ever been to a charter school or private school, you know how different the environment is compared to public school. the community that is created is very structured and learning certain habits become a norm. I mention before how my Charter school incorporated sign language into our School environment which stuck with me for a while, we also had a lot of standards and rules that a lot of schools didn't have. being in this Community open my eyes to a lot of things about school communities in general. Especially that I had the experience of going to a charter school and a public school I really seen the difference between the two. Very strange how some schools are run and you question the purpose of a lot of things.

I love how most people close to me like soccer, but not many do enough research or live by the colors of their team or national team. The importance of this sport is not only to practice a sport, many give their hearts to see their team lifting a cup at the end of the season and love to spend 90 minutes a day watching their team play against another because there is a lot behind this sport like the fans, the feelings, the techniques, the tactics, how each player does in the field. For me this sport is a big part of my life, I like to spend my days watching different soccer matches, going to the park, finding people to play with, and getting to know them and their cultures. (for me is the greatest way for me to de-stress)

I believe that one of the things that come from engaging with discourse communities is that it allows you to learn more about your status within the circle. Which is why I want to focus on the discourse community that is between Muslim men and Muslim women. Islam is something that is very dear to me, and I feel that not many people are aware of just how many discussions surround it. Some that even I'm still unaware of. This particular discourse is not a bad one per se (in an emotional sense, for me at least) nor do I hold any malice towards Muslim men for it, but I do think that this is a conversation that needs to happen. I’d like to talk about the importance of the Hijab to the Muslim community and how it’s perceived between the rest of the world vs among ourselves.

I will be discussing language used in the natural hair community. It may surprise some how there can be a community entirely about hair care and that some people in it are extremely passionate about classifications used within it, such as hair type. It is after all just hair. But the natural hair movement was not just about hair; it was also about self-love, pride and acceptance. Because of this many words and phrases have been out right banned or needed to be contextualized. I look forward to discussing this further.

I would like the share the importance of Restorative Dentistry! This is a field that not many know about. When I tell someone I have a degree in restorative dentistry they assume I'm going to become a dentist or a hygienist but it is far from it. As a dental tech we play a huge role between the dentist and the patient. We have the responsibility of making countless restorations for many different clients around the world. Just as a couple of different examples I've learned to make dentures, RPD's, implants, porcelain build ups, CAD/CAM and so much more. Not only is there so much to create there is a whole language to be learned when in the field which is one of the categories that fit into a discourse community. A lot of people have the wrong interpretation of the job, meaning they assume I work in a patients mouth. Wrong! You know that gross impression material you take at the dentist that makes you want to gag? Yeah once that sets it gets sent to a lab where I would be and I turn that into a stone model of your mouth, then I can work from that model and create whatever restoration is needed! I can go on and on but I will save that for my final paper! :)

Modou- Inside the "Hizbut Tarqiyya" community 

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to share with the life inside a wonderful discourse community named “Hizbut tarqiyyah” which means community of spirituality. It’s a religious and social organization of the Murid brotherhood founded in January 1976 at the University of Dakar precisely in Pavilion A under the name of “Dahira des Etudiants Mourides” which means Organization of Murid Students. 16 years later in 1992, the Emir of Murid Brotherhood Serigne Salihou Mbacke, moral head of the organization, changed the name to “Hizbut tarqiyyah”. Indeed, to be a part of this discourse community you must be Muslim and Murid before. So, you cannot be a member in this community if you are not a part of two discourse communities. Once you join this community, you must follow many strict restrictions. They have their own style of clothing, their own ways of talking,… Many things will change on you, that’s why you must be ready to leave most of your old habits before you get in.

There are specific languages baseball players use that not every person can understand, for example, the rules. The rules are one of the reasons why a lot of people don't like baseball because they do not understand the practices of this game, and it is very long, which makes it dull for certain people. So the baseball community is very united and respectful; there is not much drama as in other sports. I've been playing baseball since I was a kid, maybe six years old my dream was always to make it to the MLB, but certain circumstances didn't allow it. Now, as an adult, playing baseball relieves me of my everyday life stress, and it's also a way to connect with others.

I would like to showcase the language of learner-centered education. I believe this would be an excellent insight into the way that teachers can adapt learner-centered practices easily into their classroom. I am very passionate about education in general, and this would be an excellent way to reach a wide variety of educators with helpful information that has zero prep work on the part of the teacher. It would also be potentially beneficial to anyone who works with, or helps raise children.

This would be a piece about how to communicate with children in a way that helps them build agency, and develop social-emotional skills.

I have a few ideas but I need to chose one that I can write the most about. Maybe about being a Jehovah’s witness and title it "inside life of a witness"? or Maybe about CiyMD flags system? No sure yet.

I think those 2 are my top favorite but I need to think a little bit more about how to approached them.

A lot of women even some men do breast imaging throughout the year. I believe that it is very important to understand the process and what you need to know about making that first step into making an appointment as well as what comes next and last during getting mammogram and sonograms done.
I would love to educate those who don't know how to understand what their report says on the Bi-Rad that is given.
How to go about getting regular check ups, and get second opinions when needed.
The community of breast imaging and what you are truly fighting for to make sure you detect it early and not linger about not taking care of your health.

Yoga is a Hindu theistic philosophy teaching, the suppression of all activity of mind, body and will in order that the self may realize its distinction from them and attain mental control and wellbeing.  Class begins with breathing exercises, stretches and then what i believe is the is the most difficult,  poses. I value the physical and mental challenges it throws at me. The poses can be quite difficult to attain, but that is the joy of it. The yoga studio serves as a platform for conversation about personal growth in regards to reaching my intended goals in a physical, mental, emotional or spiritual aspect. Sanskrit is the primary language  of yoga. It was originated in India and considered one of the oldest language on earth. When we chant in yoga classes we are always doing it in sanskrit, it is an internal response and a vibratory language. I try to attend class  at least 3 times a week especially after a long day of work.

Working out and being active is my passion!
I find that exercise has helped me so much! I am more disciplined and I've learned that perseverance and determination will help me reach my goal not only at the gym but in my life in general. Working out also helps me to reduce stress and is so essential for me to maintain a good mental health.
Due to covid and the pandemic I was unable to exercise. Gyms were closed and I was too scared to go outside even for walks because the city was completely empty, basically a ghost town. Because of this I started to develop bad anxiety and eventually I started working out again around the park! I realized that staying active keeps me positive and healthy.
