I agree with the title "Earth Angel." Carla is an "Earth Angel" in Sam's eyes. Carla never let Sam down and when Sam felt like he needed to give up, Carla was right beside him telling him that he can do it, and that there are alot of boys out in the world that would love to be in Sam's position. This smart woman believed in Sam, Rameck and George. Carla never tried to change the boys, she was more like a big sister to them. She always helped the boys and gave them strength. She was told to go out and save the black boys, which she did. Not only did she save three of the black boys, but she made a great impact on their lives. Carla is not only Sam's Earth Angel, but she is also George and Rameck's as well. She is a wonderful person that these three intellgient, strong men never had. My "Earth Angel" is my mother. My mother is one special person that is always there for me. She never lets me down, or allows me to fall. This is a woman who is always helping me make good deicisons and even when I get into trouble, she always sticks by me. She is a person who always pushes me to do my best. I can count on my mother for anything, because I know that no matter what she will never give up on me.
I definitely think Carla is Sam's "Earth Angel." Carla is there for him throughout his hard times and even when times aren't as rough. She is there to answer his questions, give advice, and be a mentor. Carla never gave up on the boys, let alone Sam. She stuck through them and guided them. My dad is my "Earth Angel." He is this because he always tells me the right thing I should do in any situation. He helps guide my sister and I. He is strict when needed but very fair and he puts himself in situations I face to help me chose the right thing to do.
I agree with Giana because she is right in saying Carla is Sam's "Earth Angel." Carla did never try to change the boys. She never tried to push them to do bad, instead she gave them strength. She made a huge impact in their lives which they are thankful to this day for her. She never gave up on them, even when they felt as if they were going to fall.
Giana: I agree as well. Sam says that Carla was his go-to person whenever he had a problem and needed to vent.
Maia: And I agree with you too. Sam says that she listened to him. He says that she never judged him, or pushed him in trying to do the right thing, but just helps him find the answer that he already had in him.
This title is definitely fitting for Carla. An earth angel would be someone who looks after you, doesn't let you fall. Like an angel in heaven but you can actually see this person. It's very fitting because she always helps Sam out when he needs it since he's very emotional. My dad is my earth angel. Most amazing person in the world.
I most definetley believe the title "Earth Angel," fits Carla. She helps guide these three children through various obstacles. She believes in them, and wants them to be successful. Also, she try's and makes George, Rameck , and Sam independent, and constantly asks them questions. As soon as Sam needed advice, carla was right beside him, heping him. Carla never tried making these kids different, she believed they had a lot of strength and was capable of doing anything they wanted to. Carla is like a guardian angel for these children, set from above to help guide them to success. My "Earth Angel," without a doubt, is my nan. I feel as if she is the same person as me, and is always here when I need her. She helps keep me strong, and tells me I can do whatever I want as long as I keep working for it. My nan makes me think highly of myself, which gives me courage, and helps me think positive. Without her, I wouldn't be the same , and thats why she is definetley considered my "Earth Angel."
i agree with everyone who believed that the title "Earth Angel" fits Carla Dickson because she is there for Sam whenever Sam needed somebody to talk to. She would encourage Sam to stay in college and complete his education. Also, Carla didnt want Sam, Rameck, and George to go back their neighborhood during the summer because she fears bad things would happen to them so she arranged them to live and work on the campus during the summer.
I agree with Gianna and the the rest of the people who also commented on this question. George Rameck and Sam all look up to Carla as a role model. The three boys all needed a positive figure in there life who always encouraged them to do the right things in life like go to college and things like that. Carla was the positive figure in there life. I have a few "Earth Angles " in my life. My mom is one of them she always looks out for what I do shes always there to help me go down the right path in life. My dad is another person who is always there for me and is a great role model in my life. My gram and my aunt who is also named Carla are a huge part of my life and I always have them there to help me make an important decision in my life.
i believe that Sam is Carla "Earth Angel" because she never let Sam down. Carla is there for him throughout his hard time & hard situation. Carla never gave up on the boys. She stuck through them and guided them. My mother is my "Earth Angel." because she be there for me no matter what even how hard it is for her. Always keep me protected; give me a good advices; how bad i use to be she always there for me. That why i choose her. Earth Angel is like a role model person. i agree with Jonna because everyone in their life they need to have a better future and have a positive attitude in there life
I think "Earth Angel" fits Carla, especially to Sam, because she helps him lead a better life and future. She never told the boys what to do. If they needed help or guidance, she would ask them what they thought was the right decision. She always helped the boys out and was always there for them. She made a huge impact on their lives.
My "Earth Angel" is my mom. She helps me make decisions and never judges without listening to the whole story. She's always there for me. No matter what, she believe I am capable of making a good future for myself. That's why she's my "Earth Angel".
I agree with giana and maia, their point of views on this were great. The title "Earth Angel" is figurative language. Carla was really like their angel cause she watched over them and always had their back.
My "Earth Angel" has to be my sister Renee, she sticks by my side through thick and thin; and she always watches out for me.
I believe that the title "Earth Angel" is fitting for Carla. She was a strong and smart woman who had the three boys' backs through anything. She was a person to believe in them when no one else did. She help the boys in unbelievable ways, she lead them on to a better life.
I honestly have two "Earth Angels". My mom without a doubt is one. She is such a beautiful person inside and out. She is such an inspiration to me. She encourages me and believes in me when i have doubt. She is truly amazing. My second "Earth Angel" is my best friend Stephanie. She is absolutely amazing. She believes in me and encourages me to do my best and keeps me sane if you will. She is my comfort blanket when i need someone to talk to , cry with, and laugh with.
Yes, I believe the title Earth Angel is a perfect fit for Carla. Carla has been doing many things to keep the boys together. She cares for each of them and she doesn’t want anyone to leave the pack. She listens to each of them when they need her and helps any way possible. She even protects them by not allowing them to go back to their neighborhoods and instead, she gives them summer jobs. She didn’t want their old neighborhoods to bring them down. Carla spends the most time with Sam. Sam becomes close with Carla with his personal life. Carla is the one that open Sam’s box and help him deal with everything that came out.
My Earth Angel is my mom. She helps me with everything from schoolwork to my future life. She protects me and provides me confront when I need it. She takes care of me when I am sick. Most importantly, I can talk to her about my issues and she will listen.
I believe when Sam calls Carla his, "Earth Angel" he is using the perfect words in describing her. She was like a big sister, always there to give advice. Also, she was always by his side and always took good care of Sam.
My Earth Angel is my Dad. I can't think of how many times he helped me through rough situations. He always gave me good advice and always led me in the right direction to do what's best for me.
I agree with both Giana and Carmen Carla is very much an "Earth Angel" espechailly to Sam he goes to her for everything, like advice but instead of pushing him to the answer that she believes is right she enourages him to do what ever he thinks is best. She is very supportive and helpful, something the boys really need.
I agree with everything you said about how Carla kept the boys together. She was their big Sister! And I can relate with what you have with your Mom, with my Dad
Carla is Sam's "Earth Angle" I think the name really fits Carla. Carla is always there for Sam and the boys. She always encourage them into doing some things they think they can't do. She never force them but she made them realize that they could do more than what they think. Carla never judge them, she was kind of like a big sister to the boys. She always help them, and she is always there to support the boys!
I think in my life my "Earth Angle" would be my mom. Whenever I feel like giving up, she'd always tell me that I can do it! She'd always give me the courage to do something I can't do. She always supports what I choose to do with my life. I know she'll always be there for me.
@everyone : I agree with all of you. like what Ms. Philyaw always said Carla is kind of like the boys' "safety blanket" she'll always be there to make them feel better. :)
I think it was fitting for Sam to refer to Carla as his "Earth Angel" because she was that extra positive influence that he needed, whether he got it from his friends, or family. She pushes them, encourages them to achieve goals, and just a role model to the boys which they need considering their living conditions and environment. I have many "Earth Angels" such as my mom, dad, sister, & nephew they keep me grounded, happy, & down-to-earth all while setting good examples. They also are a positive influence such as Carla was to the boys, a relationship I can really respect.
I believe this title "Earth Angle" is fiting for Carla because deep down she reali is. for instance the first day of their class she gave them inspiration, and encouragement telling them that "You are doctors." Another example would be she taught them everything from reading and or giving a speech in front of strangers to boost their confidence. also she gave them personal advice for the trials and tribulations they were bearing deep within.
My "Earth Angle" would be my mom. She is my earth angle because, lik Carla she is always there supporting me and giving me encouragement in whatever i do. Furthermore if i say i can't do this, she tells me not to give up and look how far i hav come.
The title "Earth Angel" is most definatly fitting for Carla Dickson. She is an angel in Sam's eyes. Whenever he was about to quit, she would bring him back to his feet and say other would love to be in your position but, unfortunatly they are not so live it up. Also, Carla didnt want Sam, Rameck, and George to go back their neighborhood during the summer because she fears bad things would happen to them so she arranged them to live and work on the campus during the summer. My "Earth Angel" is most definatly my mother. She is the most awesomestestestetst person in the world. No matter what happens she will be there for me like a good mommy :)
I agree with Daniel because, he agreed with everyone. She is to everybody an "Earth Angel" she. She finds special intrest to Sam. She makes sure he isn't getting into trouble. She has an eagle's eye on them for protection.
I believe that "Earth Angel" does fit for Carla. She never let Sam down, whenever he had a problem or is troubled by something, he would go to Carla and she would always talk it out with him and never doubted him. Carla always believed that if Sam had put effort in what he did, then he could have succeed. She gives all three of the boys Sam, George, and Rameck encouragement in whatever they wanted to do. Carla also never wanted them to go back to their dangerous neighborhoods, like when they had gotten in deep trouble she was beg and ask for them to stay. I would definitely say that my mother is my "Earth Angel" she is always there for me. Even though she yells at me whenever I get in trouble, she does it for a reason so I can learn from my wrong doing. If I really think back, if I didn't have my mom in my life I don't think I would have all the confidence that I have in me now. So definitely my mom for sure. I love her!
I think the title "earth angel" fits perfect for Carla because she was always there for Sam whether it was for problems with school or personal issues. Whenever he needed someone her door was always open so he could talk to her about anything. She really cared alot about him as well as the other two boys. It seemed like she really wanted the very best for them and she tried her best to push them forward and encourage them to strive. She didn't judge them or put them down she spoke the truth but most importantly she listened to them with open ears and an open heart.
My earth angel my mom she is always there for me no matter what and even though we clash at times she still shows that she cares and wants the best for me as well as my grandmom. My bestfriend is my earth angel too because she's always there when i need her and we both push eachother and influence eachother in positive ways!
I agree with Khadeejah (&) Jenny because as Khadeejah said she gave them inspiration the first day they came. That shows that one she believes in themn wheter or not they believe in their selves and that she wants them to succeed in life and accomplish anything they put their mind to. Also as Jenny said Carla never doubted them, which i think helped keep them motivated.
Yes, I agree 100 percent that Carla is an "Earth Angel" because she is one of the few good, trustworthy, and faithful people who many people could look up to, ask advice, or just let out frustration upon just as Sam did many times in his freshmen year of college. For all the things she did for the boys, she did out of her heart without any second thought. For instance, she went out of her way to help the boys when they were in need of scholarship, loan, and/or grant money, she would pull strings and make arrangements. Another example of Carla being and angel to the boys was the fact that she was tough on them, especially when they needed to be pushed to continue to strive for the gold. Carla is not an ordinary person. She is an “Earth Angel” because she cares with all of her heart and might. She is like an older sister on whom the boys called for advice, emotional support, and helpful life lessons. That is why Carla is a wonderful “Earth Angel”.
My “Earth Angel” is another woman who is like Carla in many ways. That person is my wonderful mother, Mom. Mom is not like other mothers in the world because she is my mom. I think she is the best mother in the world. In fact, she is better than all the other moms because there is not other bond that a child can have than one wit his/her mother. Mom is always there for me when I need her. When I need to talk just to talk, she is always there for me with open ears and kindness. That is why I love her with all my heart!!!!
I agree with Mingo because he mentioned how much Carla does care for each of the boys in her own special way. I say this because Carla also assured that the boys would not be afflicted by the ways of their old neighborhoods over the summer break. No one else would care as much as Carla would. I also agree with Mingo on how Carla helped Sam with his emotional support and all of the items in his “Pandora’s Box”. Carla would listen to him with all of his troubles that he was going through in life. Finally, I love how Mingo said his “Earth Angel” was his mother as well. Yeah, Mingo!!! Moms Rock!!!!
@ Aiyana H. I agree with you because evryone has a "Earth Angel",whether its your parents, somebody in your family or even a mentor you have in your life.They're all meant to be "down to Earth",but also set good examples at the same time.I too have a "Earth Ange",which is my mom.My mom is very influential and also sets a great example on how to act as a person.
Carla is definitely Sam's "Earth Angel", the title is perfect for her because she guides him to answers, to also help himself find his way, and the right path for himself. Some "Earth Angels" in my life are my Mother, my Father and my friends, i confide in them and they help me find my way in hard situations, where I may not know what to do, or how to act. But also, to always be there, just to listen. . sometimes it nice to have someone just listen and have no opinion. She helped them help them selves, without changing their outlook, she helped them find their feelings, and thoughts when they couldn't. She made them find them selves, and their won opinions instead of them joining the band wagon, she helped them make their own decisions, as people and those choices defined them as their own person.
I agree with everyone because we all basically wrote the same things, and we all had the same thoughts on this, just in different ways. Everyone has an "Earth Angel" no matter who it is. You will sometimes always need help to be guided to the right place in life and no matter who it is they will help. Mostly everyone has someone to help guide them through life, because its difficult to do it on your own. It won't matter if it an aunt, uncle or even a person you just met and look up to. Everyone needs guidance and, theirs was Carla
The title "Earth Angel" indeed suits Carla. She was always there to help Sam at his worst. She helped him realize that his family and his life made him who he is now. She helps him deal with his problem by listening to it. Sam talks to he about his family and his "pandora box". Carla also encourages George, Sam, and Rameck to go to college and stay out of prison. I think she was sort of like a mother to them because she really cares about them and wants the best for all of them. She was tough but wasn't intimidated by the boys. Sam felt like he grew close to her the most because he was the most needy emotionally.
My Earth Angel would be my mother because she's always there fore throughout thick and thin. She never puts me down but always support me in anything good I do. She never judges me or bad talk me but the opposite. She always look at the positive outcomes I always make even if there are negative results. She has teach me a lot of things in life. Even thought she nags souch at times that I can't stand her, she always remind me to be a good person and always do the right thing. I love how stubborn yet loving she is. I love her so much<3
Yes, the title is very fitting to Carla because she helps the boys to get through the tough times they be having and she does it in a way where she isn't like lecturing them or being an an adult with fake wisdom.
Yes, I have an earth angel, that is my mom, not to sound corny or what ever but she the best mother i can ever have cause she doesn't judges me on what i do wrong nor does she yell at my wrong doing. she accepts me for me and help me get through tough times and i honestly say i can talk to her about everything. she is my best friend. :)
@mingo I agree with you mingo, she help them a lot by not letting them going back to their old neighborhood to get influenced and she actually cared what was going to happen to them in their life.
I agree with giana that the title does fit carla. It fits her cause Sam could always count on her and always look for her to lean on when times get wild or he just needs someone to talk to. My earth angel is my grandmother because i can always lean on her and she always looks out for me.
I agree with Emily. She was there and kept them from going back and ruining their lives. She is there when they need someone to talk to and like a mother. She helped them get to where they needed to be and Emily pretty much summed it up.
I agree with Giana. It's right that Carla was a person that saves the boys. She never tried to change the boys, but what she has done has saved. She had made impacts in their lives. Like Giana, I think that she's not only Sam's Earth Angel, but also Remeck's and George's.
Sam described Carla as an Earth angel, and the name was fitting. She never let him down. She encourage all of the boys. Whenever they were in trouble, she fought for them and believed in them. Yes, i have an Earth angel. My parents are my Earth angels. they act as Carla did to the boys.
Desh, I agree with you completely on your opinion about Carla. She was a great role model for the boys, especially Sam. It's always nice to know you have someone there supporting you.
I agree with the title "Earth Angel." Carla is an "Earth Angel" in Sam's eyes. Carla never let Sam down and when Sam felt like he needed to give up, Carla was right beside him telling him that he can do it, and that there are alot of boys out in the world that would love to be in Sam's position. This smart woman believed in Sam, Rameck and George. Carla never tried to change the boys, she was more like a big sister to them. She always helped the boys and gave them strength. She was told to go out and save the black boys, which she did. Not only did she save three of the black boys, but she made a great impact on their lives. Carla is not only Sam's Earth Angel, but she is also George and Rameck's as well. She is a wonderful person that these three intellgient, strong men never had.

Pretty much everyone here I agree with. :)
I most definetley believe the title "Earth Angel," fits Carla. She helps guide these three children through various obstacles. She believes in them, and wants them to be successful.

ReplyDeleteMy "Earth Angel," without a doubt, is my nan. I feel as if she is the same person as me, and is always here when I need her. She helps keep me strong, and tells me I can do whatever I want as long as I keep working for it. My nan makes me think highly of myself, which gives me courage, and helps me think positive. Without her, I wouldn't be the same , and thats why she is definetley considered my "Earth Angel."
i agree with everyone who believed that the title "Earth Angel" fits Carla Dickson because she is there for Sam whenever Sam needed somebody to talk to. She would encourage Sam to stay in college and complete his education.

Always keep me protected; give me a good advices; how bad i use to be she always there for me. That why i choose her. Earth Angel is like a role model person. i agree with Jonna because everyone in their life they need to have a better future and have a positive attitude in there life
ReplyDeleteI think "Earth Angel" fits Carla, especially to Sam, because she helps him lead a better life and future. She never told the boys what to do.

Carla also never wanted them to go back to their dangerous neighborhoods, like when they had gotten in deep trouble she was beg and ask for them to stay.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely say that my mother is my "Earth Angel" she is always there for me. Even though she yells at me whenever I get in trouble, she does it for a reason so I can learn from my wrong doing. If I really think back, if I didn't have my mom in my life I don't think I would have all the confidence that I have in me now. So definitely my mom for sure. I love her!
I think the title "earth angel" fits perfect for Carla because she was always there for Sam whether it was for problems with school or personal issues. Whenever he needed someone her door was always open so he could talk to her about anything. She really cared alot about him as well as the other two boys. It seemed like she really wanted the very best for them and she tried her best to push them forward and encourage them to strive. She didn't judge them or put them down she spoke the truth but most importantly she listened to them with open ears and an open heart.
ReplyDeleteMy earth angel my mom she is always there for me no matter what and even though we clash at times she still shows that she cares and wants the best for me as well as my grandmom.
My bestfriend is my earth angel too because she's always there when i need her and we both push eachother and influence eachother in positive ways!
I agree with Khadeejah (&) Jenny because as Khadeejah said she gave them inspiration the first day they came. That shows that one she believes in themn wheter or not they believe in their selves and that she wants them to succeed in life and accomplish anything they put their mind to. Also as Jenny said Carla never doubted them, which i think helped keep them motivated.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree 100 percent that Carla is an "Earth Angel" because she is one of the few good, trustworthy, and faithful people who many people could look up to, ask advice, or just let out frustration upon just as Sam did many times in his freshmen year of college. For all the things she did for the boys, she did out of her heart without any second thought. For instance, she went out of her way to help the boys when they were in need of scholarship, loan, and/or grant money, she would pull strings and make arrangements. Another example of Carla being and angel to the boys was the fact that she was tough on them, especially when they needed to be pushed to continue to strive for the gold. Carla is not an ordinary person. She is an “Earth Angel” because she cares with all of her heart and might. She is like an older sister on whom the boys called for advice, emotional support, and helpful life lessons. That is why Carla is a wonderful “Earth Angel”.
ReplyDeleteMy “Earth Angel” is another woman who is like Carla in many ways. That person is my wonderful mother, Mom. Mom is not like other mothers in the world because she is my mom. I think she is the best mother in the world. In fact, she is better than all the other moms because there is not other bond that a child can have than one wit his/her mother. Mom is always there for me when I need her. When I need to talk just to talk, she is always there for me with open ears and kindness. That is why I love her with all my heart!!!!
I agree with Mingo because he mentioned how much Carla does care for each of the boys in her own special way. I say this because Carla also assured that the boys would not be afflicted by the ways of their old neighborhoods over the summer break. No one else would care as much as Carla would. I also agree with Mingo on how Carla helped Sam with his emotional support and all of the items in his “Pandora’s Box”. Carla would listen to him with all of his troubles that he was going through in life. Finally, I love how Mingo said his “Earth Angel” was his mother as well. Yeah, Mingo!!! Moms Rock!!!!
ReplyDelete@ Aiyana H. I agree with you because evryone has a "Earth Angel",whether its your parents, somebody in your family or even a mentor you have in your life.They're all meant to be "down to Earth",but also set good examples at the same time.I too have a "Earth Ange",which is my mom.My mom is very influential and also sets a great example on how to act as a person.
ReplyDeleteCarla is definitely Sam's "Earth Angel", the title is perfect for her because she guides him to answers, to also help himself find his way, and the right path for himself. Some "Earth Angels" in my life are my Mother, my Father and my friends, i confide in them and they help me find my way in hard situations, where I may not know what to do, or how to act. But also, to always be there, just to listen. . sometimes it nice to have someone just listen and have no opinion. She helped them help them selves, without changing their outlook, she helped them find their feelings, and thoughts when they couldn't. She made them find them selves, and their won opinions instead of them joining the band wagon, she helped them make their own decisions, as people and those choices defined them as their own person.
ReplyDeleteI agree with everyone because we all basically wrote the same things, and we all had the same thoughts on this, just in different ways. Everyone has an "Earth Angel" no matter who it is. You will sometimes always need help to be guided to the right place in life and no matter who it is they will help. Mostly everyone has someone to help guide them through life, because its difficult to do it on your own. It won't matter if it an aunt, uncle or even a person you just met and look up to. Everyone needs guidance and, theirs was Carla
The title "Earth Angel" indeed suits Carla. She was always there to help Sam at his worst. She helped him realize that his family and his life made him who he is now. She helps him deal with his problem by listening to it. Sam talks to he about his family and his "pandora box". Carla also encourages George, Sam, and Rameck to go to college and stay out of prison. I think she was sort of like a mother to them because she really cares about them and wants the best for all of them. She was tough but wasn't intimidated by the boys. Sam felt like he grew close to her the most because he was the most needy emotionally.
ReplyDeleteMy Earth Angel would be my mother because she's always there fore throughout thick and thin. She never puts me down but always support me in anything good I do. She never judges me or bad talk me but the opposite. She always look at the positive outcomes I always make even if there are negative results. She has teach me a lot of things in life. Even thought she nags souch at times that I can't stand her, she always remind me to be a good person and always do the right thing. I love how stubborn yet loving she is. I love her so much<3
Yes, the title is very fitting to Carla because she helps the boys to get through the tough times they be having and she does it in a way where she isn't like lecturing them or being an an adult with fake wisdom.
ReplyDeleteYes, I have an earth angel, that is my mom, not to sound corny or what ever but she the best mother i can ever have cause she doesn't judges me on what i do wrong nor does she yell at my wrong doing. she accepts me for me and help me get through tough times and i honestly say i can talk to her about everything. she is my best friend. :)
@mingo
I agree with you mingo, she help them a lot by not letting them going back to their old neighborhood to get influenced and she actually cared what was going to happen to them in their life.
I agree with giana that the title does fit carla. It fits her cause Sam could always count on her and always look for her to lean on when times get wild or he just needs someone to talk to. My earth angel is my grandmother because i can always lean on her and she always looks out for me.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Emily. She was there and kept them from going back and ruining their lives. She is there when they need someone to talk to and like a mother. She helped them get to where they needed to be and Emily pretty much summed it up.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Giana. It's right that Carla was a person that saves the boys. She never tried to change the boys, but what she has done has saved. She had made impacts in their lives. Like Giana, I think that she's not only Sam's Earth Angel, but also Remeck's and George's.
ReplyDeleteSam described Carla as an Earth angel, and the name was fitting. She never let him down. She encourage all of the boys. Whenever they were in trouble, she fought for them and believed in them. Yes, i have an Earth angel. My parents are my Earth angels. they act as Carla did to the boys.
ReplyDeleteDesh,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you completely on your opinion about Carla. She was a great role model for the boys, especially Sam. It's always nice to know you have someone there supporting you.
