Why Is It Important To Be Allowed In High School?

This semester was an exciting semester because we were given the opportunity to work with students from Hopewell Valley High School. The field experience was eye opening and I learned so much from this experience. This experience has impacted me personally and professionally is so many ways. From this experience I learned that no matter what you have planned, you would always have to change your plan to meet the needs of your students. The one day we were doing the scavenger hunt, my group had to change their plans because one of our students could not walk all the way to the pool. Instead we had to improvise and take him to another area. A lot of the time, time is not on our side and we plan so much and are not able to get to all the activities planned. I also learned that we were able to have so much fun with such simple ideas. My favorite experience was seeing all of the smiles on everyone’s faces when we were doing activities.

One thing I wish we could have done differently was make it mandatory to be at the center on time. Every time a late student walked in it made it further difficult to take the attention away from us. Consequently, making me question whether the kids would have acted accordingly had we not been there.

The article mentioning the I-Gen isn't completely wrong. However, stating that kids in school absolutely need jobs is a bit excessive. Most kids are taking ap classes, plus all the old people in the desert don't feel the need to retire quite yet, so job positions for teens in high school are given more to the older generations. Also cutting down times on items like smart phones or computers is nearly impossible, most teachers require work to be turned in online (cough cough), combined with six classes could mean a possible 3 hours on electronics for work alone. Overall, this article isn't too bad and makes some compelling points.

My school received a one million dollar grant. In my opinion I have three reasons why I should use that money. The first reason is bigger classrooms, giving money to the needy, and lastly better food choices. These are very good choices in my opinion.

I know it is a crazy time of year but if I do not tell you all enough thanks for all you do for our kids, school and community you are amazing.

Whenever I sought advice, I had often relied on you. You had always answered to my calls, regardless of how trivial or serious the subject was (you especially helped me on matters with regards to Nancy, but I could tell you were having fun). While you do pick on me from time to time, it has always been in a more light-hearted and playful fashion. Though, I will say that at times, you

It was one of the first times I have been able to spend a big chunk of time in a special education classroom, and this experience gave me a little different perspective on what things are truly like. This being said, I felt that I was somewhat of a distraction to the students. I could easily see that the presence of all these new adults in the room negatively impacted their ability to focus and work effectively. Despite this, I’m so grateful that I was able to be a part of these student’s lives for just a few hours. There is no doubt in my mind that working with them would be a true joy, regardless of the challenges that come with

I will be able to attend the event, and I was wondering how other interested students would be selected to attend? I have a friend that read O'Brien's book in high school and would love to attend the dinner if there are any spots available. So if there is any information on that she would appreciate

We spent a lot of time debriefing his feelings with his dad’s personality. The student was distraught and felt unaccepted by his dad. After sensing that he needed a break from talking about heavy topics, I suggested that we play games and watch some of his favorite videos. This helped him get back to a bubbly state before returning to class. This is a strategy that got him to feel prepared to go back to class without feeling down. This is something I want to continue being sensitive to throughout the semester.

In Ingram tom moore high school we have a rule for going to the restroom where for the first 20 and last 20 minutes we can not leave the classroom for the restroom or any reason. A lot of school have problems like this where students have the basic right of going to the restroom restricted or taken away. Most researchers of this kind of topic have said that this is a bad idea because kids get off task and can't concentrate on what is at hand because they really have to go. The schools that have decided that students “safety is more important” need to consider that telling a student to wait can and is, in itself be dangerous because of risk of infection build up in the bladder from urine that is just sitting there.

We walked in, him first, because since I’m no lady, there can’t be “ladies first”s happening here, and there was two men--one in all black with thick black hair pulled back in a ponytail and an unamused face (speaking of similarities to Harry Potter, this guy just screamed “Professor Snape) was standing to the side of the large, regal desk, the other in nice and fancy clothing with brown hair and clipped goatee and kind eyes of the same color with a friendly smile on his face, and he was sitting at the desk.

Monday was my first day at Kendrick Elementary. The first thing I did in the morning was meeting with the principal and my supervisor Nicole to talk about our goals and plans. We discussed the cases that need more attention. After our meeting, I spent the entire morning with Nicole going over all the cases that are open and separating the students by grades and the paperwork that is still missing in the files. As I was reading all the cases, I realized how much help those kids need. Even though it is sad, I felt motivate to start doing my job and try my best to improve those children’s lives. In the afternoon, we separated the children into different groups and Nicole emailed the principal in order to get her

I think it goes without saying that I am not in any way intending to address you personally in this piece, but I thought I would mention it just to be

Thank you for acknowledging my thoughts and feelings whether they are positive or negative, justified or unjustified, right or wrong. I feel safe being myself knowing I can not be perfect and you will still love me.

Thank you for understanding that my silence and lack of not sharing about myself didn’t mean I didn’t care but that I trusted you.
