If you don’t do the work, how do you expect to get good grades? Study at least 30 minutes a day, and twice on the subject you’re having a hard time in. Repeating a grade is one of the most embarrassing things in high school. Taking the same class you took previously, but with younger students. Of course you’re going to get teased, picked on, and called stupid.
If we go and show bad attitude and show that we are negative to certain people around them. Then we could make children to be the same way, which is not a good example to them as young children don’t know the differences between right and wrong. As a teaching assistant it is my duty and responsibility to respect the children with there needs and accept them for who they are. The way I can do this is if I think about my own beliefs and opinions so I can learn not to judge others on the basis of their race, gender or religion etc. In my line
Unfortunately, the FCAT does not evaluate student’s performance correctly due to students that fall under pressure. The pressure that student’s feel and encounter is also known as test anxiety. According to Channel 7 reporter Erica Rakow’s in the article “FCAT Stresses Students Out, she claims” The responsibility of passing both reading and math portion of the FCAT in 10 grade adds a stressful ambiance to students who really do not want to retake it as a junior (par.2). Rakow also points out “That responsibility includes promotions to the next grade, and future funding for their school. Some students get so worked up about the test they can’t even get through it (par.3).

Fuad Manuel Asfura Giraldez English 8-3 October 17, 2008 Everyone Bullies Melinda Sordino Last year a boy from the Everest school was kicked out for bullying at school, and was not accepted in some other school.

Hester was then forced to wear an “A” on her clothes which stood for Adultery. Easy A had a much different twist than the real scarlet letter though. High school student, Olive Penderghast, was not well known around school. In fact, she was socially alienated. When her best friend asked her what she had done that weekend, Olive quick came up with a lie to make her life sound more interesting.
I have practiced talking and really getting to know people so I don’t just assign them to a category. An adjustment I have made concerning overattribution is trying not to let sympathy take over how I perceive others behaviors. When talking to a person who has been though hardships in life I don’t let myself attribute their bad behavior or drug use to that. I instead think that it is their choice to behave in that way and it is their choice to ruin their life with drugs. And again with the only child scenario.

He was starting with my two favorite teachers calling them very derogatory
Kids want to go outside past ten, disobey their parents, and lots of talks about drugs. In my middle school life, I have seen fights, kids cursing at teachers, and lots of suspensions. Maybe these were caused by puberty or stress, but it was a bad experience. I’m not saying I was a goody-goody because I wasn’t, but there were lots of kids far worse off than I was. Social hierarchy, a term lots of you may know because of World History, began in middle according to me.
I usually make it my first priority whenever I move somewhere new. However I do not think that I disregard the feelings and interests of other people, at least I hope I don’t. As a teacher, mentor, personal tutor and pastoral provider I genuinely care for my students and look out for their interests and well being. Possibly I am deluding myself and have developed a cognitive dissonance in this regards. After reflecting on this I did speak with my principal to touch base for feedback on this issue because it troubled me.
