How do you learn best? What are your expectations for your 9th grade English teacher?
A textbook is a valuable aspect for school. It contains a lot of important information. But after flipping through multiple pages, it can just become dry reading that doesn’t hold your interest anymore.
I learn best when I have exposure to technology. […]
The plants next to the ocean wafted back in forth slowly in the evening breeze, like someone was breathing deeply. The pale ocean water lapped onto the sand before retreating. A subtle scent of the salt water was in the air. A small child picked up a handful of smooth sand and watched it […]
It’s weird. I’ve always thought that middle school would be longer than it actually is. Only eight more weeks of tests and pacers and weekly authentics and then there’s those empty weeks of the calendar called summer. Then 9th grade.

This TV show, Beauty and the Geek, featured 8 girls and 8 guys. After the guys got makeovers, they were seen as better looking by society. But just because you're pretty doesn't mean […]
The streamers drooped from the ceiling, their once curly shapes now hanging to the floor. The balloons that had been filled to the max with helium were now deflated.

A home
A place

A home
A place you have to leave behind
One with all the laughter
The joy
The secrets
The sadness

I handed the crinkled dollar bill to the student teacher standing in the hallway. She gave me a sucker with a happy face on it. Cherry cheesecake, I think. I had no idea how it would taste, but I would never know unless I tried. I took off the plastic and put the sucker in […]
How will you prove to your parents that you learned something?
I will prove to my parents that I learned something by demonstrating my profound knowledge of new words. I will use words like “loqacious” and “translucent” and “sangfroid” (and if anyone knows what that means, then you’re smart!) I will also share my views with […]

The super bowl offers so many things: a chance to watch grown men tackle each other for a football, bet big bucks on the best team (the bears lost *sniff*), and […]
