Good morning. I wanted to spend this 7-10 minutes talking with you about my growth this year and why I should go to the tenth grade. So where should i start? academics? struggles? successes? friends? it 's a tough choice.
So I wanted to start off by saying that this is my first year in the high tech high community and let me say it has been a very interesting year. I learned that I struggle with multiple things but can almost always find a way to solve them. From projects and from the beginning of the year till now, I learned a lot more about myself.
For example to start the year off we worked on a project called makeshift poetry, which was a combination of humanities and physics. The project was to create a poem and find a way to

Creating the ring was difficult because there was no option of creating it on the gear generator program, it had to be created on adobe illustrator, but what was even more difficult was finding the right size of the gears that would perfectly fit inside the the ring and on the outer side. Before laser cutting our drafts and later the final product we needed it critiqued by Scott to check for errors. Karina, Handy and I had so many drafts of the product until it was perfect. At the end of the project I hated it yet loved it. I hated the project more towards the end because all the pieces needed to be spaced out correctly in accordance the ring, it all revolved around the ring. While working on the make shift poetry project I found out that I stress very easily and can make the most silliest mistakes under pressure. I found out that I’m very good with due dates, turning everything on time was extremely hard but that didn’t stop me from coming before school and after school to keep working on the project. The project would have been way more difficult though if Karina and Handy weren 't there to help. The reason I liked this project so much was because of the thrill I got after having a working mechanism completed, it was sadly one of the happiest days of my life. The fact that I created the mechanism made me feel really great.
I struggled a lot in physics but my biggest struggle overall was humanity 's, my writing is not
However, with the help of my new friends and professors, I survived my first semester here. While it wasn’t perfect, I continue to improve myself as time passes.
First and foremost, I think it is safe to say we have been doing great work this semester so far. We have a great staff to work with, and little conflict between members. Our stories so far have been top-notch, and I expect the next few weeks will produce pieces of similar quality. I look forward to wrapping out the year with both of you.
The 1st semester was full of challenges as a full-time student here at Mohawk College, but I am thankful that it is over. Now, I am grateful that I will be starting my 2nd semester as a Practical Nursing and is determine to succeed.
We came up with ideas for our week, by going through schools that had done things similar to this and complied them into a list, the list follows;
Starting my journey at Texas Tech University has been very interesting and not as difficult as I thought it would be. Even though I have faced minor challenges I have been able to overcome them efficiently. During my first semester the major experience I have had is the population of tech. I never expected that there would be this many people. During the first week it was a bit overwhelming but I was able to overcome it.
Do You Think Your Writing is Good? What do you struggle most in class? Most of my friends struggle with Math or Science. It was not for me but with my English class.
This spring semester makes my third semester attending College of the Canyons, or any college for that matter. It has been a wonderful experience for I've managed to build relationships with a diverse group of both students and instructors all working towards their goals as well as achieving a milestone in my ultimate pursuit to become a physician. This previous fall semester I undertook the challenge of becoming an Emergency Medical Technician and I am proud to say that I succeeded, for I passed the course and received my certification in early December. In late January I took my National Registry in order to be certified as an EMT-B on a national level, and as I skimmed through the results I experienced tunnel vision with the word ‘congratulations’ in the center.
Everybody has been through a change, from being a drastic change to having a small change, and everyone responds to these changes in different ways. Usually the response is not so relevant to what happens to your life. But there is one change in life that is very effective to you that would either make or break you. This change is moving to 9th grade; this is such an important time because how you act in this grade decides how your life plays out. There multiple reasons why it's hard for new 9th graders from being stress, to the transition, and of course the social life.
Talking about my weakness in writing is something I usually something I don't like to talk about, but if I had to pick two it would be revising and editing. I personally noticed over the past year in college that I need to improve, just last semester I was in ancient human history and when we had to write a paper the professor said the same thing on every paper of mine. No matter what method of wording I could not hook the interest of the reader, I hope for this course that it would help me get that hook the reader and keep the reader's interested in what is being written. Well, this concludes my personal experiences in writing field from my strengths to my
I would honestly have to say my writing is okay its not the best just like my reading its not the best but its fear and I know I have to keep trying and trying just so i can be better and my writing and reading can be clear so a person can understand what I'm reading and what my writing is about. I feel like I struggle the most in and I picked these to because I know it's a lot I have to improve on with the two subjects but I know if I practice and practice I'll be better at my
Welcome to McGarvin, where you are going to start your first year in middle school. I’m glad you decided to come to this school as there will be many new opportunities for you to try out and do. Throughout your 7th grade school year, it would have lots of school activities and events to make your first time here fun!
Life in tenth grade has pretty much been just like life in first, fourth, or even ninth. It is a matter of going to school, listening in class, getting home, then doing your homework. But, sometimes somewhere in your daily routine, there are drops of inspiration and awe that you hold onto until the next class, day, or even year. Through the past few years, I have gathered much information in the intense classes, while casting the calmer ones to the side with the wave of a hand. This year in Bais Yaakov, our learning has been a bit more relaxed, which allowed me to focus more on what I can get out of the simple lessons we learn or the fascinating ideas we can derive from our day to day subjects.
Finally, I will discuss on how I struggled with my writing. Writing for me was very hard because not being able to read or spell really affected my writing. I did get help with my writing but I still struggle with my writing until this day. For instance when I write sometimes I do not know where I suppose to put my commas or semicolons. I am not a very great writer because it's hard for me to brainstorm because I'm not very good at concentrating my mind tends to wonder
The second project we were assigned that year and that I enjoyed was to research two authors from the 1800s or so, in collaboration with a partner that we got assigned to. For the first author we had the option to either create a power point presentation or create our own website about that particular author. My partner and I choose to build our
The academic year has been very intensive and ran quicker than I imagined, however, it has been a very challenging but exciting both academically and on practice. Lectures have been well organised and delivered compared to year one where on many occasions there were disruptions due to last minute change of lecture theatres or change of timetable. We had equal sessions of field learning and theory at the school.
