A grade, a buzz, a high, you never seem to stop worrying about them. Most of this year my grades have been A’s because, of the work I put into my stuff and how much I participate. The grade I believe I deserve is an A because of the improvement I’ve made and participation.
Some students in our class may think I’ve always been argueementive and really good at English but really I’ve never have been too good at English until the last three years. This year a lot of people think I’ve gotten really argueementive when I really just have an opinion than I have ever had in any other class.
This year my improvement in English has sky rocketed more than ever. Kansas reading Assessment score was 82. The score I got was the best score I have ever had on the reading assessment. I was really proud of this score and hope to get better at the assessment before the end of my senior year. Understanding what I learned has increased greatly this year. Understanding what I’ve learned in years past has always been difficult to me but this whole year I’ve understood what we have learned or talked about. Being able to understand what we’ve been doing has made it so much easier for me because I understand discussions and assignments which help me with class participation. Being able to understand is like a dog barking at the mail man it’s common and very necessary to our daily lives.
Participation is essential to life just like oxygen is to the existence of pretty much everything. Notorias B.I.G. rapped, “No heat, wonder why Christmas missed us” I choose this because being able to TPFASTT even this line from a poem your participating. Participation consists of pretty much everything you do being able to TPFASTT the poem that quote came from because discussing it with your class means you understand how to do it. Just being able to talk about something is participation because one it shows you understand something and that you’re willing to engage with your fellow classmates. Suffixes, Prefixes and Roots a way of words, a way of a sentence and a way to speak if we didn’t have then we wouldn’t have words. Intersection, orthodontist, microbiologist. These words some common words in one society which use prefixes. These had to come from somewhere which most of the times they are either Greek or Latin words. Identifying these roots in everyday life cause like come on its plan English but its participation in everyday life. Boom, Boom, Buzz the sign of talking is everywhere, life is everywhere, and understanding and participation is what you do to succeed.
One life, one understanding and one participation. The grade I should get is an A because of the improvement and participation I’ve done throughout the year.
