Recommended: My experience taking online classes

There are many thing's I plan to improve and expect to happen this 8th grade year. So far, this year I learned many things are different from seventh grade. For example, in seventh grade we didn't have exploratory class which is different. I never knew the school district required internet safety to be taught to 8th graders. When I first got my schedule, and saw I had that class it sounded like a ELT to me. After sitting through one or two class periods of exploratory and discovering what it was, I found out it seemed like more fun than I was expecting. Another thing that's different this year, is in this class we write journals every class periods. Last year we wrote one a week, and they were due by the end of the class periods. Moving on

    As many people have told me before, it is a very different ballgame than middle school’s easy going years. There is much more work, the classes are harder, and the environment is completely different. Many people’s grades may slip and they may cower in fear at the barrage of assignments they receive class after class. Unlike other people, I am confident in my ability to excel at all classes and to sustain exemplary grades. Therefore, while many are trembling in fear at the prodigious assignments and work is bombarding them from all angles, I will be at ease, knowing that whatever obstacle is thrown my way, I will conquer it and be its own

    I have learned so much material and more. I learned soon into the year that I couldn’t just study a little bit the night before a test, so now I study for a little while every day starting some days before the test so I feel prepared when it comes. I have also learned that for my academic benefit that I can’t procrastinate each night. Now, whenever I am doing homework or studying, I leave my phone somewhere where it can’t distract me and grab a snack before I start so I don’t have to get up at all. During 7th I grade I have also figured out how to use my class time more efficiently. This allows me to have less homework and ask teachers questions if I need to at school. I have also become better at being proactive, and because of this I get less missing assignments and my work doesn’t pile up. Finally, I have learned over the course of this year that school is all about the growth and improving yourself, and personally I have noticed that good, progressive growth often comes along with good grades. As a 7th grader this year I have been pushed and compelled to expand my academic abilities with the various assignments, projects, and tests in all of my subjects, and though at times it may have seemed like a challenge I have had growth therefore allowing me to push through these

    We did so much, and it went by so fast, faster than any other previous year, and I wish it hadn't. My favorite part of this year was all of the trips. We went to Philadelphia and saw amazing buildings hundreds of years old such as the liberty bell and independence hall. We visited the Preschool down the road, and I made a new little friend. My favorite of all, Washington D.C. I got to spend 2 school days with three of my best friends still while learning. This was my favorite trip because I got to spend school hours with people on other teams, while still having fun. Eighth grade has more privileges than the other years, but you have to use them wisely. I wasn't exactly the best at using them wisely. Teachers knew me to be very sassy because I had quite the

    When I started the 8th grade I was quite nervous and anxious at the same time. To be honest it's not that different from 7th grade. Even though most of your teachers probably tell you it more work and the teachers are really strictked it really no different than seventh grade. As long as you do your work and turn it in on time you will have a good year. If you're on team A you will have Mr. Dunford who teaches language arts, Mrs. Merritt she is the math teacher, Mrs. Lewis is social studies, Mrs. Hall teaches science, and Mr. Watson he teaches career literacy. The wonderful thing about having all of these teachers is that they have a good since of humor.
