treI haven't written a paper in about 12 years. Since I've just recently gone back to school, I have found it very difficult. When I was in high school I really enjoyed reading and writing papers, I have lately found that i have a hard time expressing my words on paper. I really do not enjoy writing. I do not have any misconceptions about writing I'm just very out of practice and I'm sure with time it will become a lot easier and feel more natural.
There are many points made that can clearly push the overall answer one way, or another, its just about balancing out the positives and negatives. Cullington explains that texting can potentially hurt formal writing, but is proven to have no positive or negative affects in the long run. There are many concerns about text speak and formal writing. Cullington talks about how teachers see a decline in writing and are having problems in class because of text speak. “A Minnesota teacher of seventh and ninth grades says that she has to spend extra time in class editing papers and must 'explicitly' remind her students that is is not acceptable to use text slang and abbreviations in writing” (Cullington 89).
I try to write my journal entries to the best of my abailty because I cant see a lot fwhen I’m trying to wtite or type. My mom sometimes reads my entries, and she’ll tell me the mistakes I make because there tends to be a lot. To add on to my spelling ability, my grades have been slowly slipping. I have always tried my best at everything when it comes to school. Always had good grades, and even though the doctor told me tourettes would not affect my intelligence, it
Without those papers I would be lost trying to recall what happened. Going through my papers I found I wasn’t very good at reading. At least that’s what I thought at first. I was reading my teachers comments and they all basically stated that I needed to concentrate and I would be fine. The first paper I came across was the results of a pre-reading composite test from kindergarten.
I thought that all day this is what I would doing, little did I know that reading would be next. I immediately became anxious and felt a headache coming on. I disliked reading then and still do. My teacher in kindergarden recognized my discomfort very early
All of this is easily learned and understood, but when you begin to learn when to use comas, colons, and semi-colons, that is when the work becomes difficult. The boring subjects are the last issues that I have with the essays we are assigned in English classes. The subjects are almost always on some novel or a person we have read about in history. If the subjects were on something I liked, I might like English a bit more. Yet and still, I find myself writing my essays on less exciting subjects such as, “Why I hate English.” Second on my list are the thick novels I always find myself not reading.
Learning Disabilities, Communication Disorders & Giftedness Grand Canyon University: SPE 526 February 22, 2012 Abstract There are different types of disabilities and they affect people in different ways. Some are recognized as the child develops, others happen in the womb and some are inherited. This document will discuss the definition, characteristics and causes of learning disabilities, communication disorders and giftedness. Learning Disabilities Learning disabilities are different from a physical disability because it is not visible to the naked eye. Their fellow students don’t see them using a wheelchair or crutches but notice that they get very low grades.
I think that reading is where most students have trouble and this is where they slip through the cracks at school. Some teachers don’t want to deal with it so they just push the child through. I think that what really needs to be done is that teachers need to take the time to help these kids. They need to make sure they understand the work. They need to make sure the stuff is age appropriate for their reading ages; doing this will help a child to succeed at reading.
When I was in high school I experienced a bad teacher in English, then that following year I had an excellent English teacher. The bad English teacher kept to the same old ways of teaching by requiring us to memorize boring vocabulary words, and work out of the Text book to learn grammar. We would walk in and she would tell the assignment and then we would barely hear her speak throughout the remainder of the classroom period. My classmates and I dreaded going to this class everyday and most of us had very poor grades resulting from
Through our program, we had to have several “workshops” with the guardians each year. It was always hard to try to teach a grown person set in their ways that yelling at their child, was not the correct way of discipline. When working in today’s public school systems, often times, actions get scrutinized too much. Telling a child that you love them might cause someone to raise their brow. Children need praise and love.
