To Whom it may concern, The students in our Highland Mathletes Team take their commitment to academic and mathematical excellence quite seriously. In our recent competition, we took third place after a close battle with high schools from all over the district. When we first heard about the San Jose convention, I can distinctly remember the excitement and enthusiasm of our members and leaders. I can’t remember the last time we’ve had a possibility like this. This convention is a unique opportunity for everyone in our team, from the freshmen underclassmen to the seniors upperclassmen. It boasts a variety of methods we can implement and innovate with, both in our practices and competitions. For example, I heard that there will be this really cool technique I’m writing to fill in space. …show more content…
Many of them plan to pursue or are considering STEM-related professions. This isn’t just about trailblazing our ideas, however. With your permission, we would like to reward our Mathletes for their choices of hard work and diligence despite being nuanced by the troubles and peer-pressures they face as growing young adults. Many give up their lunches and free time to get better at a subject that is often averted. In total, we have _ members. So after consulting with the Mathlete Team, I am bringing this field trip permission letter to your attention. I have included various yada yadas about blah blahs. I think it would be an extremely proactive experience for the
Being raised in a very STEM-centric family, I began to realize the importance of STEM at an early age from spending time with my parents during school breaks. My mother is a professor of electrical engineering at Georgia Tech and my father is a civil engineer who works for Georgia Power. I played around with Scratch and small robots when I was very young, spending a lot of time at Georgia Tech. What we, humans, can create fascinates me. I
I came across your name on the SCA governance page and saw that you were the president in [State] for SCA.
This event was inspired by the desire to create something to invite the rest of campus can come to.
Luis has been one of the best students in my 16 year career and possibly in the whole history of Irving High School. He is truly one of the finest examples of a well-rounded student that any teacher can ever encounter. As his AP Statistics and AP Calculus BC teacher, I been able to see multiple examples of Luis’s talents and abilities. Even up to this day, Luis does not stop surprising me with his diligence and persistence. Although I’m only his math teacher, I know that Luis has been a highly successful student throughout his high school career in a wide arrange of subjects. From either math, to science, to art, to English, Luis has always risen to the top of the class and performed his best in every activity and test given to him. Luis is one of those few
“Everyday at 11:30 you will be taken out of class and brought to this room. You are all here because you are at a more advanced level in math than your classmates. You are TAG students, Talented and Gifted. This is a little more challenging work, but it will prepare you with your transition to higher levels of education,” the teacher proclaimed with confidence.
Academics have been my primary strength throughout my high school career. Since Grade 9, I have maintained an average over 95%, thus receiving Silver Medal every year; my final graduating average will most likely be 96.2%. My scholarly success is illustrated in the high number of subject awards I have received - ten awards in three years. In addition, I have competed in various math and computing contests, such as the Galois, for which I placed first in the school, and the AMC 12B, as well as the University of Toronto Biology Competition.
The primary goal of this project was to examine the math bowl and try to improve upon it. After three years of being a member of the Montana tech math club I was given the opportunity to run it. So, with the resources available to the math club, I attempted to organize and promote another math bowl completions. Through running this event I hoped to gain insight on short coming that the math club faced. One of these was the lack of participation from the math club members.
From Africa to America, African American women have embraced the spirit of creativity and survival. For years the black woman has been the backbone of our culture. It was our faith and positive spirits that played a great part in surviving slavery and being treated as second class citizens during the Civil Rights Movement. Now as we enter the 21st century, it is time to exert our strengths at a new level. The African American woman's role is to grow and prosper in business, support and be active in her community, maintain a strong family foundation, be spiritually grounded and to emend our health.
To begin this letter, I would like to thank you for donating prayer and money to support Diamond Willow Ministries. You were very much a huge part of my recent trip there, as well as the boys camp that took place through the ministry.

Hope all is well! I am sending this email to see if you all were still recruiting a student-athlete, Chris Moore from Ashbrook High School. His mom contacted me regarding their visit in October, but I didn’t see him listed on our end. He’s submitted an application to us, so I just wanted to make sure he’s a true recruit before I switch him to our “athlete” list.
From my personal perspective, the participation of the work involved a reconsideration of my own identity and purpose, and the classification through of the different dimensions of my life. The key determination of setting personal objectives and defining one’s outcomes is the personality and self-image which is of paramount of important to be aware of.
Jeffrey Mervis interviewed educators about their efforts to improve undergraduate STEM education. Daniel Goroff, a mathematician at Harvey Mudd College in Claremont, California, tells his students, “Science is done in connected communities rather than
The National Math Festival in Washington, DC was a particular success. JRMF organized one of their most popular exhibit halls. We invited four other partner organizations to contribute activities, and over 400 parents, children and professionals attended. Feedback was overwhelmingly enthusiastic. In the coming year, we plan to exhibit at the MAA/AMS
In the past decade, language memoirs, linguistic autobiographies, and learners’ journals and diaries have become a popular means of data collection in applied linguistics. It is not always clear however how one should go about analyzing this data. The aim of this paper is to offer a critical review of analytical frameworks applied to how one language autobiography can say a lot about one person’s past experiences and shapes them into who they are today. I will discuss the dialect, both geographical environment and social factors, and associates within through developing, using and changing an idiolect which constitutes part of a persona and self-identity of these frameworks in relation to the type of information they seek: subject reality, life reality, and text reality. I argue that some analytical results, in particular content from academic journals, are insensitive to the interpretive nature of autobiographic data. Subsequently, I will talk about my idiolect that is a collection of features of vocabulary development through parent-child directed speech, neighborhood and the Hawaiian Island Voices, textism behavior with school children and academic attainment, depression and its effect on language, and gaining identity through second language learning.
