High School Surprise Analysis

2863 Words12 Pages

At the beginning of seventh grade I was very worried about the first day of school, but as the days went by the worries went away. The first thing I was worried about the most, was getting lost in a big school. As I got used to where my classes were I was not worried about getting lost. The second thing I was worried about was the new principal, Mr. Watkins, because I didn't know if he would be mean or nice or how he acted. Mr. Watkins is a nice principal so my worries went away. Next, being late for class worried me because I didn't want to get in trouble. So far I have been able to find all of my classes. My fourth fear was that the classes were going to be really hard. However, I have been able to keep up with the work and at this point it hasn't been too difficult. Lastly, I did not know if the teachers would be good. All of my teachers are really good, their classes are fun, and I …show more content…

My first surprise is that all of my friends are in my class. The reason for my first surprise is because we have more classes that are bigger than before, so I didn't think I would have many friends in my class. My second surprise is having project lead the way every nine weeks. The reason for my surprise is because last year in sixth grade we only had one nine weeks of project lead the way. My next surprise is being able to sit and talk to the students with special needs at lunch. I didn't know we would be able to because at my old school, we didnt have students with special needs. Another surprise is having a recess. Even though it is a short recess, it is still a recess and I didn't think we would have one this year because we are at the Middle School. My last surprise is not having all of the specials we had last year. This surprised me because I didn't know we didn't have to have all of the specials in one year. The seventh grade has brought many surprises that have all turned out very

  • Personal Narrative: Mr. Gronewold

    Teachers The teachers liked at the beginning of the year and the ones I like now are totally different. Mr. Gronewold I’ve always been close with because of being a wrestling manager. Mr. Belkin I thought I would be his favorite because he is really close with my brother and I’ve known him since kindergarten. Mr. Knights I hated at the beginning of the year, but I realized he wasn’t that bad.

  • What Did We Learn About The Boston Massacre

    536 Words  | 3 Pages

    One thing that was exciting and very interesting for me was learning about the Boston Massacre in Social Studies. Most people think of it as a minor event (which I did too until I learned all about it) in which a few people were killed, but it is much more than that, as I found out when my class went into a lot of depth to investigate the mysterious Boston Massacre. Some people think that the colonists aggravated the British and that the British fired in self-defense. Others say it was the British murdering (or murthering as they said it back then) innocent colonists. Whatever happened, it is a very interesting subject and kind of makes you question our supposed to be innocent ancestors.

    We were beginning our development unit, and being able to see a topic we studied right in front of my own eyes was mesmerizing. It immediately piqued my interest even more than it already was, and I was able to connect some ideas we learned in class (like the stage of development) to a real life scenario. This gave me an incredible urge to learn more and research more. Sometimes it is hard to connect classwork with the real life, but it was a very exciting experience when I did. Seeing the young children play raised new questions on the topic, new ideas, a new passion for the

A day that would finally let me be normal like everyone else and have the choices as other people without being ridiculed by the teachers that saw me as unqualified to be taught in a standard way. Thanks to my mom thinking that it would be a marvelous idea to have me be placed in special education due to my lack of effort taking reading comprehension test. I was placed in special education at the end of 5th grade, and sought to see the end of it.
