Eighth grade

write a well written paragraph with grammar alone, not including the point of view they will be including in the paragraph. During eighth grade they know how to write and read, but there may still be a need to clarify the components of sentences and paragraph form. The reason for my assumption that the students could write a sufficient paragraph was that in seventh grade students are able to CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RL.7.1 Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text…

The spiritual life I have today is all because of what St. Cecilia has offered me. From our eighth grade girls group with Mrs. Savoie, to prayer every single day, everything was incredible. Ever since I walked into St. Cecilia when I was in Pre-K, I am given the opportunity to pray everyday, and I am able to attend mass each and every week with my school, which I am beyond thankful for. Being an eighth grade girl, we have a group, Illumin8, which is the thing I cherish the most because we have…

Middle school was horrible. Seventh grade wasn’t so bad but in eighth grade it was horrible. I was put in CBE classes. They relied on the student to stay Motivated and focused. I have Inattentive ADHD. My ADHD causes me to get short bursts of motivation and energy. The key word there is short. I avoided long and tedious tasks but that is what school is. I would get frustrated when I lost motivation for some work. I would be halfway through a project then they would move on to a whole different…

It was the ending of seventh grade when I got the news. Charlee, my best friend, told me that she was moving to Oakdale. When she told me I never realized that we weren’t going to be together for eighth grade. Then one day Charlee’s mom said to us “Charlee, you won’t be going to Hickman for eighth grade.” She sighed, then continued “You are going to Oakdale Junior High for your last year at middle school.” Her mom’s only reason for making her go to Oakdale was, so she can have friends for high…

unhealthy. Then a new author named susan Dynarski says “there's a “gap” in math score between disadvantaged eighth grades and their classmates is a .69 standard deviations. And so roughly this puts the children 2 grade levels behind. (Dynarski 1-2).” This is important because if their is a “gap” in math then school is harder therefore making more stress to come in. Also when children are behind two grades that also means that they will not participate and possibly get complaints from parents.…

land. To begin with migrant workers get paid very little even though they work long hours in the sun. Most migrant children stop school at eighth grade, by then they are ready to work the long hours.

One day Chavez’s father saw an opportunity to own land, he made a deal with the landowner. The deal was…

but I learn from my mistakes and get back on track to be successful. In the fall of the seventh grade I made a goal to make the modified basketball team. It was my second year playing organized basketball, because the year before I played in a league at the Boys and Girls Club.
