Tomorrow is the first day of school, and I have no idea what to do. Over summer break, it has been crazy for a long time. Knowing what consequences will come, I will get through it, hopefully.
BEEP, BEEP!! I wake up to the most unsatisfying noise on earth. Knowing that it’s the first day of school, I still had Draculink’s bite. I was still craving ink! I decided to go downstairs, and pretend that I was eating. Only waiting for my parents to leave so I could pour my food down the trash.
As I walk out the door, I grabbed five books, and stuffed it in my bag. I greeted my friends, Ava, and Noah, at the bus stop, wanting to take out a book. As the bus headed to school, I only had a few minutes till the bell rang. I rushed to the restroom into one of the stalls, and pulled out a book and started drinking. Few people walk in so I slipped my books back into my bag, and went to first period.
I decided to go the library and find some old book because they taste better. Kids are still in school, but I have found a hiding spot. I gingerly crawled under the tables and had clad myself with the chairs. Not noticing Ava and Noah had walked in and noticed me! They looked at each other and went my way. I cursory pushed aside the books acting like nothing had happen, but still they saw me. “ What are you doing under there Juan?” Ava asked. I was acting like it was all fun and games, and started to laugh. Noah and Ava looked at each other like I was an insane person, so they just laughed with
The morning was foggy and I could see the front of my school through my window. It was a nice sight to see. I walked into the kitchen to make myself a bowl of cereal and there she was with her head down on the table. I could tell that she arrived a couple of hours ago because the tears hadn’t dried from her cheeks yet. I got myself ready gave her a kiss on her forehead and headed off to school. I had walked into class eager to see what my teacher Mrs. Padron had in store for today. Every single day there was something new to learn and there’s something about that infinite nature of learning that really appealed to me as a child. I cherished those 7 hours I spent in class the most I could and I dreaded the mere thought of having to go home where I would have to face the
One day, I was walking home from the bus stop. It was the last day of school, but the first day of summer break. My mind was bursting of happiness since the first day of summer was starting and school was over until September. But I wasn’t fully happy because one of my good friends was moving. I WAS going to run home to play on my Playstation 4, NBA 2K17, but I decided to say goodbye to him. My last days of school are usually terrible but this year, something was different. I think that I was a little smarter than I was all the other years. Either I got hurt or I just had bad luck. Let me tell you the worst thing that has ever happen to me, which I’m currently laughing back at it as me being the dumbest kid that day. Let me start from

Should Schools Start Later Recently, children have been attending school 7:00 to 8:00 in the morning. However, some schools are debating over whether or not schools should start earlier or later. Schools should start later because or later. Schools should start later because it would improve children's grades, children would not become overweight, and won’t suffer from depressive symptoms.
Districts should be for school day to start later than usual. Because it can improve in school’s performance, decreases the chances of teens to be involved in car crashes, and because teenagers need at least 8.5 hours of sleep.A later start time could actually save schools money and benefit society at large.
Significant facts exist that confirm that school start times are too early. The amount of sleep children get is a key factor to how they do in school. Energy is a huge necessity for kids and teens to concentrate during the school day. If students aren’t concentrating in class because they are sleep deprived, they are missing crucial information that they need to get good, or even average test grades. With early wakeup times, it makes it very challenging for students to get the ideal amount of sleep to do well in school. For example, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommend for kids to get at least 8.5-9.5 hours of good sleep. The AAP warned that sleep deprivation can "threaten academic success,
Do you dread getting out of bed early in the morning to go to school? Do you think you would do better in school if you did better in school if you had the chance to get more sleep? Schools should start classes later because teens don't get enough sleep, are at risk for drowsy driving and less school would be missed.
Students should be for a later start time because their academic success, safety, and alertness would all improve. As children get older they transfer more often to other schools. Start times are earlier and homework increases which lead to less sleep. Schools all around the U.S should move to a later start time. It would benefit both students and parents.
Enough sleep is essential to a kid or teen’s health, focus, and to be less sleepy. Studies show that when the school board shifted the school day later in the morning it boosted attendance, test scores, grades and there was a drop in teen car crashes. Scientists say that the average teenager has a hard time falling asleep much before eleven o’clock and still needs eight and a half to nine and a half hours of sleep each night. Others still say that it would affect the amount of time for after school jobs, that the buses would need to change their whole schedule, affect parents work, and it would alter after school activities. For overall better health, we need to change it to a later time. Schools need to start school later
Average school starting times in the U.S. are seven to eight thirty,but this does not give teens enough time to wake up. I feel that schools need to start later to help teens all over the U.S. get more time in the morning to wake up, stay awake and be ready to learn and have an easier time completing early morning classes. To put in another way, changing the start times to later teens will have time to eat a good breakfast, finish homework, get more sleep and just be awake and alert. By making this change teachers and parents will see a change in our kids attitudes,grades and attendance. Furthermore, teens are at a crucial growing point and need more than eight hours of sleep so they are able to grow. Also, sleep is crucial for having a healthy immune system and to keep from getting ill.
The average school day starts between 7:30 to 8:30. Students wake up way earlier than this time to be able to prepare for school. Then the normal school day lasts at least 7 hours. As a result of schools starting too early, students are cognitively affected, struggle with prior commitments, and consequently, a student’s education begins to falter along with the school's reputation.
The researches have been accumulating over the years that suggest that schools should move its starting time later in the day. However, it has been mostly ignored by the school systems. Even after the concrete data are presented, which shows that students often lack sleep because of schools’ early start time, the American school systems have done close to nothing. Sleep deprivation is an important public health issue and it should be taken seriously. According to Center for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 75 percent of public schools in the United States start before 8: 30 am, with 8: 03 being an average starting time (CDC). Many doctors and scientists believe that the early school is preventing students from achieving recommended amount of sleep and they have data behind that reasoning. Therefore, the school system and the U.S. government must listen to
In this first unit of The First Days of School, Harry Wong presents three characteristics of an effective teacher. The three characteristics are: has good classroom management skills, teaches for mastery, and has positive expectations for student success.
The first day of school is nerve-wracking for most people, for me, the first day was especially terrifying. The first day of a college class is probably more crazy than all others. My mom and younger sister, Michaela, were busy taking pictures as I attempted to run out of the door. After being homeschooled for the last six years, I knew it would be a much different experience. I had been in my room alone doing school; I was content with where I was. The morning of the first day of class, I was so busy that I didn’t have time to be nervous. However, as I ran out the door, my heart rate elevated to a pace of 138 bpm. I felt older, nervous, excited, and anxious as I left for Pellissippi. Although it had been six years since I had been in a classroom, I realized that all of my worry was for nothing once I walked into Ms. Brown’s class.
The alarm clock buzzed loudly beside my ear. Feeling like a gong that was being hit repeatedly was placed right beside my head. I sluggishly pulled myself out of my bed and dragged myself to my closet. The words, first day of school moaned ghastly in my head. Summer was uneventful and school was just going to be hell. I picked out an old, worn out flannel and a pair of jeans to wear. Not rushing at all, I struggled to put the raggedy clothes on. They smelt like horrendous lies and rumors. Exactly what this state and my school are built on.
