Elementary and primary schools

Summer ending school is near. Knowing a year ago a new chapter of my life was opening up called high school. I was just like you excited to be a freshman, but also nervous to what my high school experience would be like. During summer I took a week long course called College & careers 101. Which got you to know Topeka West better. It gave you good information on how to be successful during High School and beyond. We got to learn great organization skills. Good studying skills. How to take good…

me to leave the current primary school that I was studying at and transfer me into another school when I was at grade three. The reason for the transfer is that my parents think the school that I was transferred in had a better environment and quality than the previous one. This change brought me a great transition, this was the first time that I felt lonely in my life. I lived in the dormitry in my new school and no longer lived in my home as when I was in my old school, I felt too lonely to…

new fun facts. I didn’t know it then but learning how to read and write began the foundation of who I am today. I love to read and I wouldn’t be able too if it weren’t for learning the basics of writing. I remember the first time I walked into the school library at South Forrest Attendance Center. It was very quiet so quiet that you could hear a pinsel drop in the hallway, which reminded me of church like the library was a sacred place you had to respect. The librarian's name was Mrs.Smith, she…

quote from the author’s elementary-school-aged daughter about how she had thought that her lesson at school that day involving a PowerPoint was boring and it uses this to transition onto the main point and thesis statement, “The text and material covered is still the same boring grammar and spelling lessons, but the educator has altered: It is a screen.” The point Bohnhorst tries to convey in her essay is that the creativity and social learning of students in elementary school may be hindered by…

courses, unlike English which appears to have the same elements taught consecutively since elementary school. My parents lack of knowledge of the English language also unfortunately made me fall behind other students who were born into an English speaking family. My mother would occasionally tell me “maybe you can teach me English one day,” and I still cling on to that statement. It became arduous to get some school work done as I could only depend upon my sister who was four years older, and of…

Bilingual education in the United States today is becoming more prevalent as there are thousands of different types of bilingual programs being implemented in elementary schools. The people who are pro bilingual education say it is beneficial for children with the cognitive and psychological benefits it provides; however, there is also a group of people who are completely opposed to bilingual education and think that it’s detrimental because children might stay in the program longer than they…

thought it would be as laid back as VAA. My first year I loved it and I had lots of fun and made lots of new friends. I would practice with my dad often so that I could get better. Then I continued with softball all the way through elementary school and middle school. Two summers ago the Stillwater softball team was starting to fall apart and more girls were deciding to leave and go to a different team or play a different sport. So all that was…

Usually, animals from the different tropic levels can be found here. The first tropic level consists of primary producers, which is known to be plants. Plants surrounded the lake mostly. For the second tropic level, it consists of primary consumers, known to be herbivores as well. One specific kind of herbivores I observed in the park, like last time was squirrels. The squirrels were continuing to find food for hibernation…

started hanging out with another girl from my friend group from sixth grade and hung out with her friends. I hung out with them through all eighth grade and I was so happy that actually found really good friends that I enjoyed being with. Then high school started. Everyone says that when you start highschool you and your friends will drift apart. I so hoped that would not happen because I really liked the group of people I was hanging out with. It did not happen to me and my friends, we…
