First grade

of it being a positive change for all of us, not only the students in my section, but also for all the students who took the course this semester. Initially, this thought might come as a surprise to some, especially those who may have gotten a poor grade in the class or who decided to drop the course, and I would agree that this idea is somewhat abstract and so perhaps a more appropriate way to phrase that previous sentence would be that this course provides an opportunity for positive change in…

was a grade older than me, was sort of like the leader of the few boys we had our split class. I never realized that I was being treated differently from all the other girls in my class. My classmates seemed to simply accepted the fact that I was the only girl allowed to play with the boys – and it did not occur to me that I was the only one given that I played with the girls as well. However, one year (I think it was grade three) a new girl came to our class and I befriended her. Her first…

opinions we are having today. We hope that the administrators change their minds in these ridiculous rules they have made for us. All we can really do is sit back and hope for the best to come forth not the worst but most of the time the worst comes first then the best in most situations we have now today. As a high school student we should be able to have some rights and some says in some circumstances. Such as, we have the Right to happiness, the freedom of speech and etc. We sit here…

there was something my moms were right about. My moms raised me with a strong set of morals, including, “hard work pays off.” Sometimes this can be discouraging, when you work hard but it doesn’t pay off as you’d like it to. I’ve always gotten the grades I strive for without much struggle. However, once high school started,…

She transferred to the Sag Harbour elementary school for a few years, and in for 6th grade she transferred to the Pierson middle and high school. She was homeschooled for her 8th grade year, and then for freshman and sophomore year she went to Buxton High school, a boarding school in Williamstown, MA. One thing about her Buxton school she liked was the art studio. It was a separate…

same no matter what grade I am teaching. First of all, I feel that a final grade should be made up of many components. Those components should be test, daily grades, quizzes, and class participation. Test should be weighted them most at 50%, daily grades and quizzes should weigh 40%, and class participation should be 10%. There should be at two to three test grades in a grading period and several daily grades and quizzes. I feel that a quizzes should count as a daily grade and use as a tool…

During my time in Dr. Kennedy 's ENG 111 class, I have been pushed way beyond my limits of capabilities. Before in high school, I had no idea what a rhetorical analysis was. But here it turns out to the normality. Normally, we would just read a book and then answer questions based on said book. We also had only used citation once if lucky prior to the senior project. But there wasn 't much need for detail. But nevertheless, without my experience here at RCC, I would have never known the amount…

The first year of college is always a learning experience for many kids.Mine was a huge eye opener on what it is like to be independent. The transition from high school to college wasn 't exactly the easiest for me. In college you don 't have parents and attendence cordinators making sure your are in class. It 's something that you have to make a prority if you plan to suceed. One of the major things I struggled with was getting up and going to class. I have always been a pretty intelligent…

I would just like to start this journal by saying how unbelievably proud I am of everyone involved in Sears. This was my first time ever doing something in Sears because I’ve always played on the school hockey team and due to the timing, it’s always on or the other. This being said, while I have been in shows before, I’ve never directed or been involved in the rehearsal process without being in the cast, so seeing the way our cast grew was amazing and awe inspiring. I couldn’t have asked for…

Children should get paid for good grades. Children should get paid for good grades because they can get inspired for being rewarded. Another reason why children should get paid for good grades is because they can attend a good college. The final reason why children should get paid for good grades is because it will make parents life less stressful. The first reason children should get paid for good grades is they will be inspired for being rewarded. According to Nashely Cristino, " it is an…
