When I first opened the test, I realized that some of the topics included were never taught. I didn’t miss any math classes throughout the year, so I didn’t understand why the questions were so difficult. I was nervous to get my test results
Toni Hall September 18,2012 Writing Bill Nedrow I had to cope with being the new kid at two different schools. At my first school I didn’t know anyone, the environment was different, and they had us working. At my second school I knew a lot of people, I wasn’t use to the children behavior, and events happened that I never experienced. Switching from school to school is very difficult. The very first high school that I attended was Christ The King which was a catholic school, and because I was the new kid I really didn’t know anyone.

As I got to my class all the things I felt were gone away I was ready to tackle this class. My first class was a new student seminar pretty interesting class what had got me was the homework I was not sure if I was able to do it. All I had to do is stay focused which I was for the first month then I started to lack. My second class was actually one of the easiest that I knew I was going to for sure
I mainly pushed them off because elementary teachers always wanted some kind of colorful and creative diorama or drawing. Even though I found this fairly simple, I just didn’t enjoy the trivial coloring or gluing. I would put these off so much that I would even have to ask my dad to come help me finish just so I could get to bed on time. However as I grew older I began to enjoy schoolwork more. It was becoming more complex, especially in math.
He became a good collector of thoughts, but usually lacked his own opinion. Reading helped make him a more confident English speaker and writer. Education had changed his family’s life. He became resentful to his parents when they could not help him with homework which pushed him to read more. He became embarrassed at his parents lack of education,
I knew I could succeed in whatever I wanted to do with my life, but the problem was I didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life. As students; however, we all process many strengths, mine being that I’m a great reader, but I wasn’t always a great reader. When I was in first grade, I was placed in special education because of my poor reading skills. Now this helped me a lot, by showing me where my weaknesses where in reading. Consequently
I had never done homework. I had never been in a classroom, and I most certainly had never written a paper. Even though I was sitting in a college class, I felt like a preschooler, waddling into the classroom on my first day of school where I will be learning about different shapes, colors, and how to politely ask for things. I was terrified of failing, I was terrified of the embarrassment that would come if I asked what a thesis was or what rhetorical meant. I sat at my desk petrified by the announcement of the in-class essay, a three page rhetorical analysis.
Mary Nelson 9/18/15 Reading 54 The first time I was given this essay, so many things were roaming around my head like, not knowing what to write, other assignments, personal issues, including another essay that was assigned to me from my English class. After all the negative thoughts was roaming in my head I realized that I needed to pull myself together and that this isn’t a math class and that I do much better in reading and English except math, even though I’m a little rusty from not writing or reading for a long time. As I was doing research on the topic, I looked up the word Sporadic, the definition of sporadic means now and then. What’s sporadic is immigrants coming to the U.S to experience the American Dream, immigration isn’t just happening now, it has been happening back then too, and immigration will continue to live as long as were living. As Americans some of us take for granted our freedom, our dreams including being equal, and we take for granted achieving goals.
A typical high school student just skims through a novel that he or she is reading in English class. This type of student does not develop emotions while reading. I was this student in high school and I was a slow reader with bad reading comprehension skills. Now, in college, only six months later, I am now able to comprehend everything that I read in the book Alone Together. But “why” you may ask?
