Dragon Den Question

The color that best describes me is green. The reason why I chose the color green to describe me is because I am a happy person that does not let anyone get to me when I am having a bad day most of the time. I can also see the green side on the other part everyday because I am a confident person in what I do in life that is another reason why green describes me.

End of Year Reflection – Greatest High School Achievement

My biggest greatest achievement from the last past two years is doing my homework and turning it on time. When I was a freshman I did not want to do my homework and I would make a story up that I did my homework when I did not do my homework. So every time I walked into class and the teacher would ask where was my homework I would say I did not feel good or I lost it I would feel guilty for lying to my teachers. After a while I stopped lying to my teachers about my homework and just do the work so I would not have to do it later, I could just get it done. Now that I came into the sophomore year I don't lie about my homework because it is no point in lying about my work and homework because I want to be successful in life and go to school when I get older. I feel great about my homework because I don't have to lie about my work and I don't need to hide what I know that I did instead of trying to cover the lie up with a cover up. Lying changed me because I want to start being honest and having people trust me instead of not trusting me. I may lie still to this day but it is not my homework or something important .

Portfolio - Improvement

My writing skills before high school were horrible. I use to use random capital letters in a sentence and I would forget to put the correct punctuation in the right place. My writing skills are a lot better because I stopped putting random capital letters in a sentence and I put the punctuations in the right place. I improved because Ms. Priester had helped me with my writing. My reading skills were good before high school. I need more help on reading because I have not been reading lately and I don’t get used to reading that much. I have not improved yet but I am working on improving on my reading skills. My speaking skills were good, except I would not use s at the end of sentences a lot. I have improved on this skill because I watch what I say carefully. Before high school my group work was not good because I would not get along with a lot of people. Now I like to work by myself because it is more peaceful and less rowdy. My technology skills before high school are good because I now a lot about technology because that is what we have now and days. I will stay in school and worry about myself for the next two years so that I can be successful.

Portfolio - Future

I feel that my future is going to be succesful and I am going to strive for what I want. My future palns for school is to go to a communitky college for two years and start my own daycare buisness with baby's and toddlers.I guess since I am around kids a lot they make me happy and brighten my day when I am upset or feeling down. My carrer plan would most likely be owning my own daycare buisness and braiding hair. My previous experiences are preparing my because when I go on pass I watch my nefu and my little god cousins for 20 minutes but I like to watch them longer because I love little kids. I need to stay in school and start practicing during the summer so I can get used to it most of the time. I and my family and friends will help me reach my goal. I do believe I will achieve my goals because I am determined to do my future plans and go to a two year.

Portfolio - My Educational Experiences

My educational experience has influenced my academic performance in many ways. For example do to my educational experiences I am currently getting good grades and doing my work. For example when it came to doing my work in school I always would go outside and talk to my friends and not even do my work. Another example is I would waste time, I would not make time manageable for me to do my work and I would let other things get into my way of doing my work. Last I would say that I want to go somewhere and my mind would thin of that somewhere instead of my work in school. I am making time, going outside a little bit and ask the staff for help when I need help on my work.

This is a link to my timeline:

Portfolio - My Educational Experiences

Due to my educational experiences, I am currently still in school and I am learning more evreyday in classes. For example when I used to be in the six grade and the seventh grade I would be rude to the teachers and tell them that I am not going to do any of my work in school. Another exmaple is in my old grade school I also would try to fight people and get into arguments because they would get on my nerves. I currently go to school evreyday do my my work, get good grades on tests and always in a good mood these are making me succesful in the school.

End of Year Reflection – Greatest High School Obstacle

The biggest obstacle that I had in the two years is not seeing my sister Amber and talking to her. When she was stationed in San Diego she would not call me or write me. I haven't seen her since last April. When I had went to go see her in April it felt like I was not even there. For example when I seen her come off the ship I was in tears, I wiped them before he seen me cry. I stood their waiting for a hug and she said Hi without a hug. That moment I was sad and hurt because I wasn't going to come but she said that she wanted to see me and all she would talk about is how I'm her little sister and how she would be there for me. I rethought about it. When I seen her I was telling myself that it was just a mistake to come and see my sister because I felt that she thought that I was a friend or something. Did she forget that I used to be the closet to her and when I was younger we would cry together, stay together, and even walk together through tough times. I don't even know if we are still together like that anymore. The incident changed me because I am a stronger person and whether or not my sister and I are not close that is still my big sister and I love her to death and I will be there for her no matter what.

Cst Reflecting Paragraph

When I have started the CS T's testing I felt anxious about if I'm going to pass. The first part of the testing was the English part and that was a little bit difficult. I began to look at the questions and read the passage over and over so I can understand the passage and the main idea. When I started evaluating with the questions and deciding what are the best answers that answers the passage. The second part of the testing was math which I did not take instead I was in the gym with coach Burgos I had fun and I was just doing some other homework from other class that I needed to make up. The other test that we are having is science and some students are taking biology and chemistry. I wish that all students can take biology so it can be easier and so the school does not have to separate a different pile from biology or chemistry.

Third quarter Awards Review

Today was the assembly award for students from the teachers, county social workers and the manager of the SPA. Many of the students that got an award was for getting a 3.0 gpa in both scholarship and gpa or a 4.0. I had got an award from the county social workers for chaanging both my academics and my behavior at SPA and always being positive. After the awards assembly the students that got an award got to stay after and eat pizza for doing a great job. Next award assembly I would like to get an award for getting a 3.0 gpa or higher.

Fourth Quarter Reflection Paragraph

When we had the fourth quarter kick off I was not intrested in doing any of the activities. The activities were good for you but it's just that im not a sports person that much. I felt that by me not participating I could've joined but instead I decided to read a book and sit around and eat sunflower seeds. When it got around lunch I was ready to eat even though I did not do anything I was just was really sleepy and hungry. After lunch there were at least three more sport groups and those groups looked really interesting. The next time we have another sport activitie thing I think there shoukd be a choice in doing arts or something else.

Fourth Quarter Goals.

My greatest accomplishment last qaurter was getting my work done and doing what I need to do in oreder to get good grades for the quarter. In order to accomplish my goals I had to stay focus and do all my work. I also had to go to school prepared and ready to learn. I actually had faith in myself this whole time and I know that I can do whatever it takes to get good grades and stay focus and do what I need to do to succeed in my dreams.

My goals for this quarter is to stay in school, turn in all my homework and be prepared evreyday. I will accomplish these goals by focusing on myself and getting good grades and being positive evreyday, because in order to be prepared you have to have a good positive attitude.

What I Learned in the Third Quarter of English 9/10

This quarter in Ms. Priester’s class I learned about allegory, poetry, imagery, figurative language, primary source and secondary source. In the beginning of the quarter I first learned about poetry and what it is used for. For example poetry is used in many ways and styles like rap, slow jams and country. After we learned about the session poetry we moved on to allegory. It is used mainly in figurative language that different categories fall in to like imagery, primary source and secondary source. I hope to learn more about poetry and figurative and other topics that are related to either one of those.

CAHSEE Reflection Paragraph

Today I took the cahsee and I felt like I did a great job and to my ability. When I took the cahsee I though it would be nerve racking and that it was going to be difficult, but it turned out to be pretty easy. When I started to read the articles they started to be pretty interesting and fun to read. So as soon as I seen the questions about the article I began to reread the article and awnser the questions. I think I passed the cahsee and I will be graduating with my class of 2013 and so I feel really confident.

Feelings about the Cahsse

Since the cahsee is next week I feel very confident. I know that when I take the English part of the cahsee I will do good and I will know what to get prepared for. I thought that the cahsee would be difficult and I would think to myself that I am not going to pass the cahsee but I thought about it and I can't tell myself what I can't do when knowing that I can pass anything when I put my mind to it. I feel that by taking the cahsee as a sophomore I can learn alot and it will be interesting, and I can just get it over with instead of waiting.

Sophomore Paragraph

In order to be a sophomore you need to act mature and show everybody and yourself that you are ready to be an upper classroom instead of a lower class man again. Being a sophomore means to show the teachers and the adults in the classroom that you don’t need assistance for following directions that are given to you. Once you’re in the real world and you feel you need to be the class clown or a job clown when you’re working then your being really childish and immature. Also in order to be a sophomore you should not have to be told many times to do something.

Third Quarter Goals Reflection

My goals for this third quarter is to get a 3.0 and manage to stay off two hour so I wont have to go to summer school my whole summer vacation. In order to reach my goal I go to school evreyday pay attention and ask for help when I am struggling with the work were doing in class. I also have my friends, peers and adults help me with my work that is difficult for me. I am doing my classwork and going to school and following directions when I am asked to do something in class by the teachers or the administrators. I need to start doing all my homework evreyday instead of most of my homework and I need to organize my time more wisely instead of finding time that best fits the campus time. At the end of the quarter I expect to feel that I can push myself more and that I can maintain a 3.0 GPA or even higher instead of a GPA under 2.0.

Poetry Experience Paragraph

I feel by studying poetry that the subject will be more interesting and one of the easiest subjects to learn about. Also poetry will teach us about backgrounds of history and lives back then in the 1900’s. I know that poetry does not have to rhyme with a word that is close to the definition or subject it can be described in how you feel and what you are thinking about. When I studied poetry in the past most of my English teachers would have me write words that rhyme and that go together most of the time. Sometimes on my free time I do write a couple of poetry entries on how I feel or what my days are like. I usually talk out loud when I do poetry so I can think about what I write before I put it on paper. During this poetry unit I look forward to learning many different ways to write poetry instead of rhyming all the words when describing how you feel or what you are thinking at the time.

Symbolism and Allegory Unit Reflection

Ive learned a lot this passed two weeks and I had fun while learning about symbolism and allegory. I also learned that when using symbolism you can use an example like an lamp and explain what the lamp is and what it represents. Ive learned what symbolism is many ways and ideas. One of the ways I learned about symbolism is through one of my assignments in class where we read a book called Animal farm and the book explained symbolism and what it is used for. When we read the book symbolism was explained by using an symbolic way. Ive learned allegory when we compared the book Animal farm to the real world. The assignment was interesting and a lot easier to learn about because the real world has many things to describe in a literal way. My favorite symbolism and allegory assignment is the characterAnimal symolism paragraph because I got to describe the characters and what they symbolize in the book. The assignment was also my favorite because the book had a lot of examles from the real world. By studying allegory and symbolism it changed my thinking because I know that a walking stick or even a cow can symbolize as a happy person or a lazy thing in life.

Third Quarter goals

My greatest accomplishment of 2010 was getting a good grade on my reform essay that I did in English this year with my partner. The way I achieved getting a good grade on my reform essay is by paying attention in class about the directions and the expectations. My partner also helped me reach the point where I needed to be to get a great grade. I also took time out of my day to have staff read over the essays and help me fix any mistakes that I had in the essay. I had faith in myself that I would be able to get it in on time and I did and I felt great about it.

My goal for this quarter is to keep a 3.0 and A’s and B’s and at least one C. I would reach my goal by going to school and to all my classes and learn everything that I need to learn this year. I will also ask an adult or a peer to help me out on anything that I need help on. Last but not least I will have faith in myself to reach my goal.
