Life At PAAAS

Now that I am all settled in at the school there is a lot to tell you! Let me just show you a day at PAAAS.

1st Period
We have the lovely English! These past two weeks we have been writing about why we commemorate past events such as 9/11. I have come to the conclusion that we commemorate past events to show respect, give the survivors something to remember and also like the quote by George Santayana says "If we don't learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it."

2nd Period
I have Spanish; since Plainfield is coming to be more then half Hispanic and the world is multi-cultural it is important that today's students speak many different languages. In Spanish we are learning more about the Spanish countries including Brazil even though they speak Portuguese  because we do a lot of business with this country it is important we study and understand their culture.

3rd Period
We have wonderful Earth Science! I’m not a fan of very earthy things such as bugs (Lol), but I enjoy this class mainly because I LOVE labs and that usually what we do. I also LOVE taking notes which tends to be important in this class because we do a lot of observations to prove our hypothesis and get our conclusion.

4th Period
BEST CLASS EVER!!! I LLOOVVEEE technology! We have the best teacher!!! He does different accents during class and he always makes class fun! Now we are really getting into computer parts and what’s in the computers, also Microsoft programs and things like that!

5th Period
AHHHH Gym! Hmmm I didn’t do the best in this class last year. . . But it’s getting off to a really good start so I’m excited!! Football and Volleyball here I come!

6th Period
Well this lunch which really sucks,but i understand that my mom and a group of people are going to be working with Sodexo. So Woohoo, Hurry up, I'm hunrgy!

7th Period
 Hmm this period we are in
Algebra 1, sadly it’s not one of my strongest subjects, but I have definitely improved since last year since I spent a lot of my summer doing math problems on a website that was provided by my math teacher, and it really has helped me get a jump start on Algebra fundamentals.

8th Period
I have Civics! I have always been in love with this class! I love the work learning about all these different things about history! This would be if not my strongest class one of them! It helps that my mom is actively involved in our community so she provides me with a great example of how civic-minded people commit to volunteering!

9th Period
This period is instrumental I would have to say I look forward to this class everyday! If I don’t have it I feel incomplete, this is one of the best classes I have ever taken, I love everything about it, it helps me with my guitar skills which  gives me a sense of peace and lets me escape from reality until my mom calls me back down to do the dishes!

I've been fighting my mom about writing the blog! I took the whole summer off despite her wishes,but now i am back on it! I know that writing this blog will help me be a better student, and will help me master writing techniques like persuasive and explanatory as well as increase my vocabulary and my awareness of current events in my community.

SO PLEASE KEEP READING and send me your thoughts!
