the help they need and to make that happen there needs to be less summer vacation my argument is that KIPP students are smart and well educated because they have long hours of school and study for approximately 2 hours and read and listen to music for about the same time. “Relation of Education Insanity”(8). The scores show how students who had longer summer schools had a had low test scores and for those students who had less summer vacations and they had better test scores which Is pretty impressive
argument of this article is the importance of summer reading for economically disadvantaged students. Research shares, “ensuring easy and continuing access to self-selected books for summer reading is one potential strategy for addressing summer reading setback and therefore, addressing the reading achievement gap that exists between students from more and less economically advantaged families” (Allington et al, 2010, p. 423). Even though teachers “do not work” during the summer months, it is crucial to
affect summer school programs as well. According to Roberta Hoyle, Summerfield Elementary’s ESL Teacher, “The education cuts are making it so that some schools have to drop summer school. This hurts the students in the early ages whose parents are unable to take the children to the schools. Many students in low income areas need additional education but are unable to get the extra help because their local summer schools are closing.” Budget cuts are making it so that states are cutting summer school
Summer vacation is over, time to start a new level in my life, high school. I was scared to start high school, it felt as if I was barely going into kindergarten. My older sister Diana, and brother Robert were no help. Instead of describing high school in a more positive way, they described it as, “High school is boring and not even helpful instead it feels like Jail” I was full of fear, questions after questions would be running through my head. What if I don’t fit in? What if I fail every class
homework for 3 months. Honors kids at Green High School don’t get this pleasure. Every summer kids who are in Honors Language Arts have a summer reading assignment. I believe that summer homework assignments for honors students are not necessary or effective. Honors students do their summer reading every summer, because they care about their grades, and they don’t want to put their GPA at risk, but are these summer reading assignments as effective as administrators think? I interviewed Jessie Spoerndle
opportunity to address the Archaeological Institute for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage concerning the time capsule discovered and the significance of the articles to our culture. The paraphernalia contained within the time capsule included the play ‘Summer of the Seventeenth Doll’, by Ray Lawler, which can be used to demonstrate aspects of the Australian identity which are unique to this country and are ultimately timeless. The play follows the lives of various Australian figures, including Northern
The title, counselor, seems to have many different meanings depending on who you are speaking with. A counselor could be a college student working at a summer camp. Another holding the title counselor might work in a local school. Moreover, counselors exist in offices and treatment centers across the world. It would make sense if every person who encounters these different counselors have different expectations of their counselor’s role. Yet, all of these different people hold the same title. Accordingly
have developed my problem solving skills and ability to connect to different cultures. My AP Biology and AP Chemistry classes ignited an intense scientific curiosity that drove me to create an internship at Yale University’s Flavell Lab this past summer. The lab 's researchers work with transgenic mice to study immunity, hoping to trigger responses that fight cancerous cells. Their work is every bit as exhilarating as I could have hoped. The experience of seeing actual applications of techniques
In Revolutionary Summer, Joseph Ellis attempts to display the importance of the summer of 1776 in a narrative form. In doing this, Ellis must balance his knowledge as a modern-day historian with his desire to ensure that the reader sees the narrative as it was in that time period. In his presentation of facts throughout Revolutionary Summer, Ellis recognizes that hindsight can be both a powerful historian tool to provide context as well as a negative mindset that can skew the true facts of the time
Having to take summer school somewhat shows that I did not learn much throughout regular school year. I did have some things stick with me and help me through summer school. I learned a few things throughout my time in summer school. Three things that I learned are, the importance of showing up, to be a better organizer, and Mr. McGee likes to talk very much. One of the things I learned in summer school was the importance of being here. One reason people fail classes is because they do not show
