Final Check-In Letter

My experience in Ms. Priester’s class was overall really good. She was able to teach me in ways I could easily understand things. All the taking notes have been totally helpful throughout the whole year. One big impact to me was preparing for the CASHEE. Ms. Priester did everything possible to have every single one of her students to pass. Being in the system distracted me from my learning in school. I was going through so much that I didn’t care about passing my classes. I used to think that a C or D in class was not that bad. When I came to SPA I realized the importance about grades. Since freshman year to sophomore year I have improved my grades so much. I cried when I got a D on my progress report this quarter. Then I realized Mr. Walker messed it up. Anyways, school has become one of the most important things for me. Being one or the only girl in my house off 2-hour makes me really proud. I have learned a lot of things being in Ms. Priester’s class. I have learned more about technology, better writing skills, and so much more. More about technology is one of the things I have learned. Ms. Priester made us do many projects in the laptops and made work fun and easier to turn in. Google Docs. is one of the many things Ms. Priester thought to us. Many students complained that they lost their work in the computer when in shut down, or they lost their hard drive, well Google Docs. saves our work if the computer shuts down. This class has thought me manners. Manners are important everywhere is this world. Ms. Priester pushes her students to the best that they can be and honestly she pushed me so much to be at the level I am now. Confidence, Ms. Priester has thought me confidence in myself to do my work and get grades about C’s. Going into my junior year, I have set goal for myself. I want to make sure I turn every single assignment in and do all my work in class. I want to try to stay at a least of a 3.5gpa. I would also like to keep this goal for my senior year and hopefully finding a college where I would like to study and keeping my same goal. Can’t wait for summer.

APA Format Teacher-less Lesson

APA format is one f many styles of attribution. This has two major parts which are the in-text citation and the reference page. Citing a source means that when you got the information of some website or a type of source you in parenthesis put the source name you found that in. The writer needs to cite their surces when found over any reference page. When the wrieter is citing a direct quote from the reference page they have used quotations marks around the whole thing they are dirrectly coping. A reference page is where you put all the references you have used and you put it at the back of your essay. Using APA format in my research paper will help me keep my paper organize.

KNOTT'S BERRY FARM!!!

Today was such a fun day. Our school gave a free day of school to all students who maintained a 2.7 GPA over the last 3 quarters. Many of my friend were able to go. It was so much fun, even though I didn't get in many rides. I had a great time with my friends. We had to stay in groups, at least 2 people together and I would like to thank Sam, Marquise, Jessica, Joseph, Marry, and Becky, for hanging out with me. Later on after lunch we found Mr.Walker, Ms.Priester, Ms.Emily, and Mr.Eric. It was so much fun spending time with our teachers out of school. Honestly, they are so much cooler out of school. Anyways, it was my first time going to Knott's so I really appreciate my friends understand my fear to most roller costers. HAHAH! It was really cool. Well, that's all folks. Thank you for reading!

I am really exited to get the new loptops. It will be so easy when we are doing projects in school. I am so happy to have saved some newborn baby, either squires or gophers, from Robert Keil and Jose from boys 5. They found this tiny little baby and they were trying to microwave them for no reason but to be mean. Lebari and I went to get the rest as we saw, what we think is the mother, get eaten by a hawk. It was sad! We got the babies and I was up every 2 hours after 10 to feed this little cuties something. I was giving them milk and today we found a little more about them and we gave them some water. I'm really going to miss them. We were thinking about giving them to Ms. Davis to give to the animal rescue but then we thought about keeping it. Now, we have decided to just let them go to a place that they can be safe. Well, things are ok so far and they are still alive. Hopefully one day I could see them again when they are big. HAHA!! CUTE!!!

YEY ME FOR SAVING AND CARING FOR SOME TINY LITTLE CUTE CREATURES!!! 100% FOR CANDY AND LEBARI, EVEN THOUGH I SHOULD GET THE WHOLE CREDIT BECAUSE I WAS THE ONE UP ALL NIGHT!!! OH, HAHA, I FORGOT, THEY SLEPT ON MY BED LAST NIGHT, THEY WERE SO CUTE....AWWWW I AM PROUD!!!

Extra Credit Blog Value Blog Post

Using blogs in schools is a good way to be able to share students projects to people. Is a way to keep track of things and as my teacher Ms. Priester does, puts our homework on her blog and we are able to know our assingment if we weren't in class. Though, a downfall would be like keeping predators away. The internet is a web page and you can be found by anyone looking for you. In our campus, we have to keep our identity hidden because of oour situation. Other than that, we get to have lots of fun, and also see what other classmates have done. A good way to get ideas about how to do a certain project, share a little about ourselves and since many teens, now in days, like technology, this is a nice easy way to keep school and technology working together.

Prom & BBQ Blog Post

Prom this year was at a really nice hotel. I had lots of fun but at the same time last year was so much better. Overall, though, things were good the food was good, but the drinks tasted a little weird. I sat with some friends and i enjoyed my time. The BBQ on friday was really fun. All the activities were very entertaining. It was very fun to have a day off from school and have fun a compete against other classes. We should do that more often.
