Good Afternoon Mrs. Aguirre,
I would like to start off by expressing my sincerest apologies for not returning your email sooner. In regards to Angel's grade, his grade has already been submitted, I did however, speak with Mr. Aikens the summer school coordinator regarding your concern (if he could take summer school to remediate his D). Unfortunately, I was told that they are not offering Eng II -second semester during this time and that he (Angel) would need to speak with his counselor to remediate during the school year possibly or next summer.
I want you to know that I did many things on my part to assist students with turning in their work on time. I provided them with class time, computers, constant reminders, and most of all encouragement.
9. What is the policy on Late Assignments? (Please answer for your program if it has specific requirements.)
Carolyn Foster Segal sarcastically discussed the numerous reasons students came to her in need of turning in assignments late. Most reasons were so redundant and absurd that she had to title her essay about her experiences as a college professor, "The Dog Ate My Disk, and Other Tells of Woe." However, as a student, I can understand why a student face so many obstacles while seeking success in their overall education and, specifically, seeking punctuality in their assignments. Whether it is from their home situation, overall well-being, the work itself, or their life outside of school and family, there are several excuses that can justify the late submission of an assignment.
One thing I wish we could have done differently was make it mandatory to be at the center on time. Every time a late student walked in it made it further difficult to take the attention away from us. Consequently, making me question whether the kids would have acted accordingly had we not been there.
I accomplished all tasks expected from me, on time and to the best of my ability. Maintaining motivation throughout both weeks, although Ms. Mackenzie was absent from class for various lessons.
I want to turn my assignments in on time. There are two reasons for this. The first reason is that it’s not a choice, it is a responsibility. My performance in this class
In the short story “The Angel in the Alcove”, Tennessee Williams tells a story of the happenings around an apartment complex and the tenants within it. Although Williams writes this story to be seemingly simple, there is more to the story than just the surface. Through the use of simple story telling that requires readers to delve deeper within their minds, Hemingway teaches many lessons. The importance of staying true to oneself no matter the circumstances and not looking for approval are both important lessons that “The Angel in the Alcove” teaches.
I must admit that I am truly amazed by your analysis of the Epilogue, for you have written a thorough response that coveys one of the most important messages found not only in the epilogue, but throughout Angels in America itself. To further discuss the argument you have made, I want to focus a bit on Prior. Specifically, at the end of Millennium Approaches, Prior was absolutely miserable due to the fact that he was diagnosed with AIDS and his lover had abandoned him in his time of need. Perhaps this is why the Angel came to him—he needed to complete the “Great Work,” which entailed becoming accepting of who he was and what life had thrown at him, enabling him to actually live instead of dwelling on specific aspects of his life. Regardless
Surprisingly, only 12 of the 51 students tested with self-imposed deadlines (roughly 27%) chose to submit their papers on the last day of the semester. Some of these students still handed in their papers before they were due, without a rigid schedule enforced by the class. However, the remaining 39 students with earlier deadlines, chose to forgo utilizing the extra allotment of time to avoid even the temptation of procrastinating. The other 48 students, with fixed deadlines, had to maximize their efforts, with the limited time they had, to work more
Firstly, a leading cause of the significant change that both women undergo is that they both understand each other’s complex life situations. Taylor confronts and understands Lou Ann’s fragile lifestyle, and how she has to cope with her divorce with her husband, Angel. For example, when Taylor first moves to Arizona, Lou Ann is unable to accept that Angel doesn’t want to live with her anymore. She believes that it is not possible for her to move on, but Taylor convinces her that he is not worth worrying about. Later in the novel, Angel asks Lou Ann to move in with him again, and, “She mulled it over and over, twisting the gold wedding ring around her finger. She had stopped wearing it about the time she started working at the salsa factory...
Have you ever read The Outsiders book? I have and their is an interesting topic within it. The topic is over whether or not Ponyboy should live with his brothers or be put in a boys home. I believe he should get put into a foster home , but do you?
Look, marriage isn't easy. No bones about it, some days are better than others. This humble reviewer has been married for 12 years so I have a bit of insight. I'd be a liar to say I haven't made mistakes...it's a two way street with potholes and traffic that you have to navigate. Luckily, neither my wife or I, as far as I know, are vampires. Because, apparently, marriage and vampirism might not be completely compatible or in the very least needs a few sessions on Freud's couch literally.
(-- removed HTML --) Perhaps one of the most famous religious relics in the world is the Turin Shroud. Measuring at thirteen-and-a-half feet long by four-and-a-half feet wide, the shroud depicts the image of a bearded man, said to be Jesus Christ. According to the legends, it was used to wrap the body of Christ after crucifixion by Joseph of Arimathea. The first appearance of the shroud in documented history came in 1357, in the little village of Lirey, France. It was then taken to Chambéry in 1457, where it was there in 1532 that the shroud was almost destroyed in a ferocious fire. The event left charred marks on the corner of the folds in the fabric, and in 1578 it was taken to Turin where it has since remained. The Catholic Church is thoroughly convinced that the shroud possesses a genuine physical record of Christ’s body, and the cloth is rarely shown to the public. (-- removed HTML --)
It has been 5 years since I had wrote, and I have made plans to break my brothers free from the evil clutches of the Council. My 4 year old son Apollo is being taught by my wife Gaea, all the knowledge we have collected over the many years that we have been in the forest. In about a week or so, I shall seek out my brothers and I will set them free so that I may return with Gaea and Apollo and live the rest of our lives at peace. After the week has passed, I decided that it is time to go.
Make a plan for working on each assignment and avoid procrastination. Procrastination is one of the biggest challenges for any student. It is easy to put off an assignment until the last minute only to turn in work that is not to the best of your ability because you were rushed.
Before we can use success to motivate our students to produce high-quality work, we must meet three conditions:
