ENGL 1101 24 September 2012 Graduation Day Graduation is one of the few times where others not only share in your excitement, but can aso be even more overwhelmed for your "big day”. Graduation is a ceremony used to celebrate the moving forward after working hard in one arena in preparation for your future. It is the only time I can think of where a student may quench the thirst of closure in one endeavor and the start of another all in the same breathe.

North Farmington High School Turner Lotts 12/7/11 4th The reason I love being a student at North Farmington High School is because of the people that attend school. I used to go to Farmington High School my underclassmen years, then I transferred to North for my junior and senior year. There is a huge difference between the two high schools, and it’s unimaginable. The people at North are different then anyone in the world because, their acceptance of everyone, and the happiness students and staff radiate. North was probably one of the best schools I could have ever transferred to because there acceptance of everyone is outstanding.
Part B: Developing essay writing skills. To prepare for this essay I began by copying down the question a few times before I started my note taking. In the guidance booklet I also highlighted what I thought were key points from the guidance notes. By making a table of the difficulties and rewards, I formed the basis of my paragraphs. When I came across anything I thought was relevant in the textbooks I stuck post-it notes around my desk stating briefly what it was and where I found it.

Most of us have grown from this experience, making us better candidates for our future. Those of us that stand here today shown the potential to go off and do great things. As the days and weeks passed, we measured it in semesters, and later in years as we moved from being freshmen, to becoming sophomores who thought they had it all figured out. By the time we reached our junior year, we were sure that we were prepared to take over for the graduating seniors, and we couldn't wait to "rule the school." Personally, being the theatre kid that I am, couldn’t wait to take over the roles of my successors.

This information serves as a context for learning about the selection, administration, and interpretation of formal and informal classroom assessments for the purposes of screening, diagnosing difficulties, monitoring progress, and evaluating instruction.

Though it was overwhelming, when classes started I had a chance to make actual connections with people and make new friends. Shockingly, some of the best friends I have made in college aren’t even in my classes, but are people who live on my floor and have similar interests, hobbies, and morals as me. Comparing now the friends I have made in high school to the friends I have made in college, I could and would leave many of my high school friends behind. The friends I have made in college support me and have changed me for the better. High school is, and always will
For example, teachers should shine light on how studying algebra actually develops stronger problem solving skills and leads students into a deeper level of thinking. If students were to see that even if they do not solve specific algebraic equations in their lives outside of algebra class, the skills that are gained by thinking on a higher level will allow them to be successful on many different levels. In today’s technology driven society relating the content to the students grows increasingly more difficult. Students in the modern classroom communicate and “operate within what they came to call “mulitiliteracies””, meaning students speak in a way that is used in computer and text message language (Ryan 192). Even in the young grades, teachers need to relate the content in which they are teaching in every way possible.
