This class moves too fast and has enough work without extra credit. * The pace of the class also makes it too difficult to have late work of make-up work, so there is none. Plus, since I drop you lowest essay scores and your lowest exercise scores I think it’s fair. If you miss one, that just becomes the one of the dropped ones. * Attendance * I have to call roll for the first couple of days for administrative purposes, but I will not take formal attendance.
You try to make not a lot of noise somehow everyone still ends up staring as you walk out. The CAHSEE is worse because if you don't pass, you won't graduate. Congratulations LAUSD, you've managed to make our lives even more stressful than they already are. Some may see the CAHSEE as easy as ABCs but not everyone does. I think the CAHSEE is out of the question, there's already other tests in the end of year to make sure we're learning.
Living by myself, I realized the difficulty of waking up at your own will and the importance of analyzing the time it will take to get to each class. It also made me realize that I cannot get ready at the last minute and arrive to class exactly when it starts. One of the disadvantages of being at a small college is that the teachers are well aware of when you arrive late to class and often embarrass you for doing so. As stated earlier, I am a very shy person and by being called out in front of the whole class, made me realize that you cannot take time for granted. An encounter in where I realized the importance of time management was when I went to bed late on a school night and missed a whole class and lab.
Firstly, many students and adults do not know enough about managing their finances which is why they tend to get in to debt. If financial literacy is taught in high then they will not have problem managing their finances because they will have that knowledge. According to the studies almost eighty percent of the people in dept are in dept because they do not make a financial plan as they were never taught to. These people lack the financial literacy skills. This is why teaching financial literacy in high school will benefit the students later in their life.
There was only a simple law, and that was to not read books as well as think, making “the mind drink less and less.” This doesn’t seem much of a sacrifice because society was filled with far more excitement than literature could offer. Meanwhile, new technology helped people do everyday chores and made life simpler, leaving more time for fun. Like Beatty said, “Life is immediate, the job counts, and pleasure lies all about after work.” Entertainment ruled their society. The parlor walls seem like a god compared to our TVs. The seashell radios are convenience at its best.
Studies show that students who are over-age for their class was held back a grade level. Not completing assignments, late work, or just missing class led up to being held back a grade. Over-age students seem to need more help in the classroom, than the regular students. Adolescents pick many excuses to drop out of school. Being bored and frustrated with class, many teens say school is irrelevant to
Name: Trần Đức Nam Class : A Task 2 It is obvious that people always resist making changes in their lives. It is very difficult to make changes because they are accustomed to a certain style of life. That is also a reason make them encounter a lot of problems. For example, there are a lot of students who are studying at school. They always cheat in the exams.
Metal Detectors are the Safe Way ! Many students and teachers question why are there metal detectors in school. Students also say having metal detectors are a waste of time and causes a lot of hold ups in the morning. However haven’t you noticed that most of the schools that have had shootings in the past were due to the lack of metal detectors ? don’t you think a couple of minutes you’d spend on a line for metal detecting may save the life of another school mate or even yourself?
Dear Editor, Imagine that you are walking into school when all of a sudden the principal announces that there will be a random locker search taking place for some of the students, and one of those students happens to be you. Not only will a staff member/administrator be able to look through everything in your locker and backpack, your iPod and cell phone will be confiscated as well due to the fact that those items are causing distractions in the classroom. Your principal argues that these random searches are to create a safer, more secure, and unassailable environment, but to some students, the searches may mean something different. This would be the equivalent for an adult walking into work and all of a sudden having someone look through all the items in your office and bags. Random searches against students are wrong because valuable time and money is consumed while conducting the searches, they can create tension between students and teachers, and it violates a student’s privacy.
Retention, though, has proved to not help students academically. Another astonishing factor is that the more students retained, the more likely they are going to drop out in school. Also, most adults that have been held back are more likely to end up unemployed, living off of government assistance, or in jail than the students who were not held back. All promotion tests do is widen the gap between students without learning disabilities and those that are disabled (Finn, Petrilli 80-85). Furthermore, standardized testing is not a good indicator for college students’ ability to make good grades.
