Fiscal year

disability and I was able to succeed and accomplish any future goals. Mrs. Evans taught me that the journey to success would always be more beneficial than the actual success. This “lesson” or piece of advice is still exhibiting relevancy in my life, 10 years later. My personality, ambition, and personal drive began to develop in third grade. I vividly remember attending class and becoming interested in the things we were learning about. In previous grades I felt the curriculum was dense…

Hi Kids! Today I'm going tell you a story about how….. Let me just tell you the story. When I was in the 5th grade, my school was about to close. The whole staff was freaked out! Of course the students, including me, were freaked out too because no one really knew where they will study after the school will close… In my class I had two main friends; Kim and Joe: Kim was an unpopular girl. She was a very wise, caring girl. Joe was my best friend. He was, to be honest, stupid and arrogant. He…

like she did to mine. I’m not that type of person. For an unknown reason she did a bunch of things to me although I was always kind to her. I remember all those events because it always makes me feel sad. She was the same person who later in the year pulled my hair and slapped me for no reason. Goodness, I didn’t see those things coming towards me, I never did anything for people to hurt…

introverted personality has its own strengths and needs to be valued in a different way as extroverts are treated. She says she has been an introvert herself who likes to stay home on New Year’s Eve and who has never given a media interview for 43 years of her life. In The New York Times article ‘An introvert steps out’, she tells her story of how a typical introverted writer delivered the rousing speech. Accordingly, I would like to help more people better understand about introverted people…

The earliest memory I have of me wanting to become a teacher, is from the first time that I went to my aunt’s classroom before school started in late August when I was about six years old. My aunt taught in an underprivileged school in Brooklyn where she was a first grade teacher and she was always trying to make the classroom more fun and comfortable for her students. She would take me to the store where we would buy new decorations. She would give me tape to hang up different posters around…

It was your first year of school and it was as easy as pie, then, you went onto your second year, then the third, and now you have finally arrived in high school. Each year you have noticed a gradual increase in the challenges of the coursework. Each year you find it harder and harder to focus or even stay awake in these classes. But not much has changed other than your age and the topic of your classes. The actual origin of the problem here is the work that the students are given to do on their…

Green and she made class fun, interesting and easy to understand. Until later in the year when we had to read Huckleberry Finn which was a classical novel but I could not keep my eyes open during it. It was very boring for me and I didn’t really understand it. Long novels have never really captured my interest. Sophomore year we read probably the most stories of any previous year, but they were shorter and more interesting to me. I found them easier to follow along with. Also we…

and more. Throughout the past two years of physical education, there have been changes in my fitness. The work in and outside of school I put in have affected my fitness scores. To start out, I will compare my fitness test scores. My baseline for my freshman year 12-minute run was 2425 meters. My posttest was 2500. Sophomore year, I got 2400 baseline and 2600 posttest. For the swim test, my ninth grade baseline was 37 walls and 38 as a posttest. Sophomore year I swam 38 walls for both tests.…

On the first day of English 102 class I sat down in a chair, I was nervous and worried I wouldn’t make any friends. I look over and I see a girl that sat next to me, we both gave a little smile at each other then went along with our business. Keondrane’ and I talked that first day, my first impression was this girl is shy like me. Keondrane’ is short, 5’0, she has dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. She is shy and quiet when you first meet her, but as you get to know her she is a high-spirited…

1. The name of the assessment was originally an acronym for the states that were originally included in the assessment, which were “Wisconsin (WI), Delaware(D), and Arkansas(A)”, but Arkansas “dropped out”, so it later became the “World-class Instructional Design and Assessment”. Now it is just known by “WIDA” (Mission & the WIDA Story). The WIDA is only given in English, I could not find any information about the assessment being done in any other language, which I believe is because the…
