Middle School Science Program Analysis

“Yeah, but you need to make sure that you’re ready no matter what,” Kara replied.

Before this course, dread engulfed me as an upcoming deadline loomed. Procrastination was my enemy, though I couldn’t jettison it. I would sit down the night before and furiously scribble everything out on my notebook paper in a rush to turn in the next

As I entered my third year of Model United Nations at Scituate High School, I did so as Head Delegate facing the task of bringing together multiple groups for a common good. I have always loved the club and attending conferences, but now I am fortunate to have been given the opportunity to lead this group. The position provided me the responsibility of choosing, planning and recruiting for the conference we would attend this coming year.

When I was seven years old I made a huge discovery about science. I realized that everything that surrounds me; the tree in my yard, the house that I live in, and the chair that I am sitting in right now are made of the same exact materials that I am made of! I made this discovery whilst I was discussing science with my dad. Earlier that day, at school we had been talking about molecules and how they were made of atoms. My dad often likes to extend my understanding of subjects which I study at school, which is what he was doing that day. Since we had discussed atoms and molecules in school my dad had decided to go a little further with me, and talk about what atoms were made of. This led us to the subject of protons, neutrons and electrons. Over the course of the next few days he taught me the basics of what I have now come

From a young age, I have always enjoyed the outdoors. I loved dirt, rocks, and stick. I enjoyed my science classes in elementary school. I enjoyed the problem solving aspect of science. When I got to middle school, science courses became more lecture based and less about hands on experimenting. By the time I got to high school, I was uninterested in science. I took physics in 9th grade and hated it. After that, I assumed that I was not good at science. I took the science classes I needed to take to graduate and did not give it much thought. I did not really become interested in science again until this summer.

I have always been a person who loves helping others and is determined to put their

Science fascinates me, it makes me think and it makes me strive for a better future for all. I know so much for someone my age because I am devoted to science. I regularly research on my own, and I pay attention in class because there is always something new to learn. The downside to being me though, is my lack of motivation and procrastination when it comes to homework assignments. In my mind,

“Sounds good! I agree there's a lot to do and a lot to plan so let's get to it!”

As Eleanor Roosevelt said, "The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the fullest and seek eagerly without fear new experiences that will enrich us." There have been many experiences in my life that have helped me shape, define, and demonstrate my character. None of those experiences have impacted my life and influenced my character more than the Student Science Training Program (SSTP) at the University of Florida last summer. In the program, I grew socially, personally, and intellectually and I learned things I never thought I was going to learn when I started the program. More than just getting a positive attitude and increasing my knowledge, I grew in many other areas, such as increasing my leadership skills and my creativity.

“Yeah.” Elise said, hurriedly. “Maybe we can small chat a bit about how amazing my body is later, but for now how about we focus on,

I can still remember this past summer. I was chosen as an intern for a summer program called Horizons at Colorado Academy. My task was to educate and enrich children in six short weeks. I was prepared, knowing that I had taken various leadership roles over my lifetime. Yet I was still nervous at the task of working with a group of small children. My first day was perfect; it was a crisp, warm summer day. I met the teacher I would be working with, Ms. Kim, and anxiously waited for the buses filled with new faces. I met all of my new kids, and I connected with them instantly. We would have a long day ahead, starting with breakfast. We all walked to collect our breakfast for the day and headed down to the classroom when we were finished. This

I 've always loved science. I have for almost 3 years. It 's my favorite subject, and i 'll even research science outside of school. I own a telescope and i could go out whenever i want and set it up. But for awhile before 5th grade, i didn 't love science. Science was actually uninteresting to me, but in april of 2015, this changed.

The article focuses on one characteristic of the first grade curriculum associated to students understanding of unit. Also students begin first grade by classifying characteristics of objects that can be compared. These characteristics include size, shape, and color. Of all the characteristics, size is the most used, by saying this object is smaller or bigger than the other one. Student can use measure to describe size. These measures are: length, area, volume and mass. Students can compare the objects by placing them next to each other to measure length or by putting them on a balance scale to measure mass, or using a beaker or a graduation cylinder to measure the volume of liquid, or placing one object on top of

Growing up science has always been a part of my life whether I realized it or not. Truthfully I do not have a lot of specific memories of science as a young student. I remember bits and pieces of things but the days that stand out in my mind were the days of dissections and hands on activities. I have a couple speculations as to why that is, the first is because in the early years of school I was not very interested in science and didn’t find it as interesting or as cool as some of my classmates did. That isn’t to say I didn’t do well, but much of what I learned I retained just long enough for the quiz or the test and then forgot it.

“Perfect. Just gimme a sec to set up the course and you’ll be ready to go.”
