lunch bell rings, while most kids’ favorite class of the day is lunch, it is my least favorite. I’ve figured out a way to prevent myself from being pushed around in the halls on the daily since im basically invisible to all of the other kids. Everyone sprints out the door into the hallways while I wait at my desk for about 20 seconds so that by the time I leave the classroom everyone else is already in the cafeteria and out of the halls. I walk to my locker and grab my lunch and book. Everyday I sit
I was sitting in my favorite seat, in my least favorite class, feeling more uncomfortable than usual. It wasn’t the awful uniform, even though I despised wearing a uniform; it was because it was ‘pick a reader day’ and I was one of the worst readers in class. I never considered myself a “dumb kid.” I knew I was smart in my own way, but that didn’t matter in Miss Kellogg’s second grade English class. Miss Kellogg was a young and very beautiful teacher, but she often didn’t teach us much. She was
got ready, and went to school. All of my morning classes had passed by pretty quickly. The bell that signals the end of fourth period rang, and I headed to my least favorite class of the day, Language Arts. Now you might be wondering why I hate that class so much, it’s not because I dislike the subject, it’s because of the people that were in it. I sat in the middle of my row and I was literally surrounded by bullies. I got picked on pretty badly in that class on a daily basis, and I usually wasn’t
get dressed; then I go downstairs and make myself breakfast. I eat and then go back upstairs and brush my teeth. Finally, I leave for school, and I get to my first block, which is seminar at around 8:20. I wait for my friend Erik to get there and then we walk in together. Seminar is easily my favorite class of the day because I have a couple of my friends in that class. My best friend in that class is Cameron, but I am also friends with Darius and Emma. Me and Cameron have been friends since middle
What was your favorite class this year? What made this class so memorable? Please include the full class name and/or professor's name. What was it about this class that stood out to you--an assignment, group activity, the professor, subject, or something else? DePaul has surrounded me with outstanding accounting professors in the strobel honors accounting program and, I am honored to have them as my professors and mentors. They have not only thought me the academic side of accounting but also how
Education, in my eyes, is to learn and be inspired by the knowledge you obtain. School must be a fun place to be in order to grab the attention of the students, or else students would rather be on his or her phone or sleep. My physics teacher, during junior year of high school, is the definition of what school should be. He inspires everyone in the class towards the subject at hand. Due to the inspiration led to knowledge that most people wouldn't have if you run a clock in- clock out outlook. He
Ever since I could remember, my favorite class as fluctuated from year to year until I reached high school. In elementary school, I dreaded science class because coming up with a topic for the science project was frustrating. When I was younger, I enjoyed language arts class primarily for the grammar lessons and discussion lectures on books, but in high school, keeping up with the readings were overwhelming. For instance, one time it took me one hour to read five pages of Harper Lee’s To Kill a
7. What I liked, disliked, and would change about the class Overall, the class has been an incredible experience. I will truly never forget the lessons that I have learned, the friends that I have made, and the people that I have helped and gotten to know. The class is a great opportunity and I think that anyone who is able to take it should at least consider it. Although there were most definitely some struggles throughout the year, I will not deny that I enjoyed the majority of the year. It has
My favorite classes this year were Mrs. Menzel’s two english classes. I have learned so much about myself as a reader, student, and an intellectual. Through both of her classes, we were given endless amounts of opportunity. What I mean by this is, we got to choose our own topics to study, books to read, and subjects to write about. We were truly treated like adults, which in my eyes, helped prepare us for the “real world”. Her willingness to let us grow as individuals was very inspiring, because
There is a multitude of varying things and activities I enjoy. Accordingly, one of my favorite pastimes I partake in is the involvement in trivia. My favorite trivia topic usually relates to the field of history. As a major fan of past events, I find it most engaging when knowing, and answering, a trivia question that directly coincides with history. This connects to my favorite class in high school, which consequently, happens to be the United States History course I completed junior year. The teacher
