The three most import things I learned about this year was that hard work, gets you far in school, being on task and being ready to school gets you ready for doing hard work, and being kind and respectful can earn yourself a lot of opportunities and privileges. I know this because once i started to be on task and working hard I got a lot of compliments from my peers and my teachers. But hard work doesn't come a long way, not unless you have respect for your teachers. If you have respect you will have certain privileges that can bring your grades higher and you'll be able to attend new things and opportunities.
Something we did that I Think i'll remember for my whole life was when we all read out our this I believe paragraph in the class. You can just feel when people actually care about what you're saying. You can feel the emotion and the emphasizing in each sentence. I can't even lie, I feel like we made it far from where we first were in the school year. If we can cry together than we are close enough to family.
The most nicest thing someone did for me in this class, was when I missed a assignment and Jose was there to help me. I can see that his undivided attention was on me even when he was working on the assignment. It was strange to see someone help me, like a student usually I ask to get there attention, and to help me. But Jose was different he just came up to me because he seen that i was confused and befuddled.
I think I taught my classmates that respecting the teacher can always turn into a privilege for all of us and if you respect the teacher she'll respect you back. I always been so keen to respect someone. I don't know why, it's just that I always had a knack to respect someone in any situation they're in. Even if there disrespect me, I will always find something inside me to bring myself to like the person. If they see that you're being nice even when they're rude they will switch either right away or later on in the day or in future meetings.
I think the area that I made most improvements in, is mainly putting effort in my work and being on task with what I am doing. Every time I started to fall in my grades, I always found a way to bounce back , and get all my work done and turned in. Mind you this isn't a great routine You must be able to have your work turned in before the due dates because once you have unfinished business then there isn't going to be no social media for you out other activities. One thing that I accomplished this year was the butterfly project. I don't know why but I often feel fond in my work because i put a great deal of effort and I was able to improve the project because of my imagination. I even have my butterfly project as the background of my iPad.
One challenging part of this year was when I was behind on my IXL’s and late on the article of the week going into our book Night, by Elie Wiesel. I remember I would stay up till 4 A.M to finish both of the assignments because I was too busy socializing on social media half the day. That isn't good for any student to do. School should come first then your studies. Anything else does not help you achieve in life. You need to keep that mentality that you're always going to succeed no matter what. But make school your acquirement and your priority.
The best writing I did all year was this one. And you want to know what my best writing was yesterday? The last thing I wrote down yesterday. I think that every time you write and essay or speech or reflection it should always be your best, no matter what you right it's a must to give it your all each time you write. I believe that dwelling on certain writings your wrote does not make you a better writer. Every time I write a paragraph for a speech or essay I feel like my paragraphs get deeper and deeper. You might read this and say i'm wrong, but know this is fact, everything you write down only helps you improve in your writing.
My favorite book I read this year was the boy in the wooden box. It was was one of the lit circle books that we read this year. I feel that this book helped me understand things about life. How people can make big impacts in your life. My favorite part about the book was when he used to get better at living everyday. Just like how I said about writing paragraphs. Everyday it seemed like he developing new ways to live and this made me think that anyone can adapt to a certain environment and achieve what they want. It doesn't matter if you're on a burning falling down building or you about to drown because your boat got hit. You just need to believe that your gonna be safe and improvise in every step you do, and be confident. Being confident is a main thing to worry about.
My advice next year to the students is to never give up. Make sure you make Mrs.Larson happy and don't give her a hard time. She cares about all of you. If you don't have her attention, don't get mad she’ll be with you in a second. Being with Mrs.Larson I began to know that she will always give you her undivided attention someway somehow. This why she is a good teacher. She loves to put you on the spot, but for good reasons only. I feel like she only tries to keep his on task and not fail. Over all don't give her a bad day.
