Using winter break time wisely....

Using winter break time wisely....

1. wake up early. Nothing eats away the winter break like moping around beneath the covers. decide the previous day when you will get out of bed, then make sure follow though.

During the first few days of vacation, chances are that you will relish the opportunity to sleep in. It's okay to do this and give yourself a break, because your body will naturally put itself on a schedule to wake itself up earlier.

follow routine. however loose, the structure will both motivate you and keep hours spent 'doing nothing ' to a minimum. Don't play to many games and even if it might be cold to go out for a few hours every week.

6 Questions?

1. What direction do you see the U.S. going? Why is it going this direction?

I see the U.S going in a bad direction, I think there might be another depression because of the Obama Care there are a lot of people who might not be able to afford medical care.
2. Why do SAT scores in the U.S continue to go downwards?
I think the reason that SAT scores continue to go down in the U.S, because there are a lot of people in school not doing what they're suppose to be doing in school.
3. What are solutions to low SAT scores?
I think we should get people in schools better education by giving after school programs and getting kids to take the SAT more serious so that they know its an important test.
4. make a few bullet list of a few problems with education in California.

• Some teachers don't pay attention.
• Some get mad if you didn't hear the instructions and wont repeat it.
• Too many teachers giving worksheets than helping out.
• Kids not doing there homework and not learning the material

5. What are solutions to the California education problems?
I think the principle should talk to his teachers without mentioning any students names so that we all get the same treatment not just one, if a student asks a question help them out rather than get mad, and doing more class activities and communicating more.
6. " To educate a man in mind but not in morals is to educate a menace to society."
What I think this quote is saying is that if you teach a man he'll learn but if you reach out to him and make learning a fun and more than just learning you are helping him or her have better morals with there work than bad ones.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement

"It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference."

What I think this statement is trying to say is that you cant always win when you feel like you are you have to prepare yourself to win you have to do step to win at something. Just because you feel like you are going to win doesn't mean you will so always prepare yourself to win.

I think this is a worrying statistic, because the number of student that should be under 2.0 should be a lot less than 1/3 of the school. I think some specific reasons i think this is happening is,because kids are barely getting use to 8 classes so I know next semester will be way better than this one. The way we can resolve this problem is with time or change the schedule back.

Working notebook

The working notebook is the daily notebook taken to class. It holds all the paper and information needed each day. Any three-ring binder can serve as a working notebook; the nylon zippered type tends to last longer. Your working notebook should contain:

• A portable three-hole punch
• A zippered pouch with three holes to hold highlighters, pencils, pens,clips, "sticky notes" , and other small supplies
• section dividers for each subject labeled homework, notes, handouts, and quizzes/tests

 An assignment book
these items are available 
One working notebook for all of your child's classes might be too large for some students, especially if they are in high school. Two medium-size notebooks with two or three subject in each is an alternative to one large notebook. morning classes might be placed in another.
Whichever alternative note above that you choose, the important thing is that on a daily basis, you should date, three-hole punch, and file any of his school papers under the appropriate divider for each subject. You should also note assignments in detail in his assignment book.

Prompt 4

Prompt 4

Thanks to the internet, people have more access to more information than at any other time in history. People can instantly find information on almost any topic in the time it takes to type a couple of words and click a mouse. But we often know little about the source of this information, including its reliability and the qualifications of the person who wrote it. If we don't know its resource, information is not much good to us. 

1. Do people need to know the source of any information before they use it?

Yes, people know information about a source before using it, because they don't know what they are getting into or if the information is accurate.

2. Plan and write an essay in which you develop your own point of view on the issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observation.

       I think that people should know about the information they are searching up, because what if you are searching up information on a project and you got to a website you have no idea ever existed but it has information on your topic. You should never engage in a website you have no idea about they could be giving you made up information or information that has not been proven correct or incorrect. You should either use websites suggested by someone who knows the site rather than taking it a pond yourself. Another reason a website might want you to log into their website is to give you viruses so watch out.
