other kids slacked off and played around in class, I finished my classwork and homework so that I could focus my time outside of school to work and rest. And because of this I never had a need to study or do any schoolwork at home until recently. I only found the need to bring schoolwork home in my Junior Year of high school. At that time I took two classes at the Lake Michigan College Campus in South Haven and a college level programming class at the Van Buren Technology…
from the beach like the way the waves ebb and wane, the wind wisp me around on a windy day, the way the sun can beam down on me with so much ray and light.

Have you ever woke up one morning and felt exhausted from the moment you got up? Many students get this feeling every single day. They never feel energized and ready to go to school.

A lack of sleep can cause performance loss and a drop in the quality of their work. I believe that school should start…
1. Currently, I would like to work on improving my overall health and fitness. For me, this includes staying active, eating right, drinking enough water, sleeping, and minimizing stress. 2. I would really like to improve my sleep schedule by going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. This semester, none of my mornings start at the same time, so some days I get to sleep in a little bit. Knowing that I am able to sleep in means that I stay awake later, and I really do not get any extra…
The first artifact that I will discuss about is my computer. My computer is a 2005 Macbook Pro. The Mac is made of white chrome. It is important to me since it is so useful.

Since the Mac is useful and entertaining my computer is tremendously important to me. The second artifact that is important to me is the book, ”The Time Pirate.” The book is about a kid…
Ideally the modern American school would construct the foundation for children’s futures. School currently outfits them with the basic thinking skills and general knowledge necessary later in life from an early age; however by and large, U.S. schools are falling short of this admirable goal. With current coursework trends favoring quantity over quality, “When am I ever going to need to know this,” has become a common remark in classrooms nationwide. This misplaced emphasis on bigger workloads…
window, and seeing a few feet of fresh, untouched snow outside. The roads are covered because the snowplows have not gone through yet, and people are just starting their day. Well, contrary to a typical snow day, students still have to get up to do schoolwork because school was not canceled, it was transformed in a virtual way. The idea of virtual classrooms taking place when there is too much snow on the ground first became a test trial in Bergen County of New Jersey in 2014. In this case,…

Malcolm X once said, “Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today” (Malcolm X Quotes). Education is very important in life.

There is an increased number of schools moving away from a five day school week, especially in rural towns because it will benefit the students.
