The most important part of the grading process for the AP English exam that I learned about through this assignment is that the readers are not looking for perfection. Rather, they are grading the essays as drafts and looking for your understanding of the prompt. I also learned that even numbers are benchmarks, and odd numbers are a step up for the higher scores and a step down for the lower scores. I think this has helped me to understand how others will be grading my essays and what I can do to achieve a higher score.

  • English Honor Society Analysis

    277 Words  | 1 Pages

    The English Honor Society appeals to me in many ways due to the presented opportunity of meeting new people, helping others while advancing my skills in the English language, and reviewing the subject of English Language Arts altogether. I am very intrigued by many of the mentioned ‘activities’ during the introduction meeting. I enjoy watching plays and musicals that relate to both historical and modern literature; they help to give different interpretations of the main themes and ideas found throughout it and also aid the audience to understand and comprehend ambiguous details. I love children and would be ecstatic to respond to their letters to ‘Santa’ as an ‘elf’. I also want to refine my skills that are English-related (such as writing

    Throughout high school, the English courses were very time consuming and over whelming resulting in me disliking the subject even more.

My last two years of school consisted of research papers and in class compositions. But nothing compared to the tedious work that I encountered my junior and senior year when I decided to challenge myself by taking AP English courses. Many people said it was just like any other English course with a little extra writing involved; my view was completely different. The AP English class...

    From experiences, I know grade 7s are competitive and active when it comes to games they like. Therefore the activity mustn’t be too boring, static or with no competition. The activity I’ve came up with is called Pass the ball which is related to Hot potato but with a literary twist. So to begin the goal of this game is not to be the one holding the ball at the end and avoid elimination. So basically all that is needed is a ball and to set up the participants sit in a circle, with enough space between each other to pass the ball comfortably and the prefect would be the host or moderator to observe the game and identify ‘It’ and ask the questions.

It is important to guide support and to monitor learning progress to help students develop as learners. This standard is significant to a teacher because it is assessing students’ comprehension and overall progress. It aids the teacher in scaffolding the student and creating appropriate activities to support the students’ learning process. Furthermore, the teacher can benefit and improve his or her teaching practices to better evaluate students effectively. The consequences of not knowing this standard are students not being able to fully demonstrate understanding because progress is not measured through multiple

    During the entirety of my high school career, I have pushed myself to take on more challenging courses such as AP U.S. History, AP Chemistry, AP Literature, as well as AP Calculus. These classes have helped me to form study habits which will be applied in college when the workload and expectations grow even more. In addition, I have also formed a small study group with two other girls who are taking all of the same rigorous classes as me and we get together on a regular basis to study for tests or complete difficult homework assignments. As a group, we are constantly challenging one another to think deeper and problem solve, which has helped me in other areas of school and life in general. I strongly believe that this group will push me to

    878 Words  | 2 Pages

    Technology is an essential addition to my instruction and is constantly present in my students’ everyday lives. It only makes sense that educators are using technology for assessments and standardized tests. Adams stated that because essay-grading technology has improved throughout the years, some standardized tests have used it to analyze the essay portions (pg. 3). I feel that not only could this save time reading and analyzing the essays, but it could possibly even prevent bias or human scoring errors. Some essay-grading technology can be used to provide feedback to students before they submit an assignment. This technology seems beneficial because it could help ensure that a student is submitting a high-quality essay, which would allow the teacher to provide meaningful feedback on craft and arguments instead of focusing on grammar and mechanics

    For our assignment, I chose to be blind. This was a tough assignment, however a very humbling one. First, while I thought this chose was the easiest of the three, after just ten minutes I felt lost and helpless. My thoughts went to how I was going to complete anything for myself. So I tried to get up and move to the kitchen to get a drink of water and needless to say I ran into many objects that I thought I knew where they were located, however my senses were off by just the simple thing of being blindfolded.
