Teacher warm-up

I know spring is here because it's slushy and you can see
the ground, its getting warm, and you can hear the birdies.

WHATEVER!!!!

Don't you dare stare at me
I am not wanting people to stare at me
Please forgive me I'm not myself now
I just want to be aloe right now.

How to be successful in School


Expository Paper

Hey I’m Heather Whitman. I’m from Bethel and now living in Mekoryuk for about three years now. Since I started school here I was sometimes getting sent home. Even for little things that didn’t ever matter to me, but to them it mattered. Sometimes even for just walking out of class a lot. Now that I’m older I know better.

These are some good behaviors that you need to be successful in school. You always have to try your best at everything, even if you do it wrong, just do it again. Stay focused in class and don’t let other people distract you with anything. Have a positive attitude towards your school, your teachers and your peers. Give respect to everyone around you; don’t give them a negative attitude. When asking for something, ask in a polite way and not so rudely.

Some other things that you might need to do to be successful in school are going to school everyday, unless you’re sick, then you don’t need to. When you have a test, you should study hard for them in your own free time. If you have lots of free time don’t spend it at the game room or at home laying around doing nothing. Time management is like choosing your time wisely not slacking.

There may have been times that I didn’t want to do anything. Like for instance quitting school (which I’ve already done like 3 times now). I have heard the, “mistakes that you make always learn from them.” I may have been a bad girl in the past like not listening to the teachers, giving them hard time, and sometimes even sleeping in class. Now, I know better. I want to be in school and get what I came here for. I want to succeed in life and not be a drop out. I want to have a diploma. Also have a good job. You need goals and hope so you can be happy in life. You can always turn things around.

I.....

Long ago I was at home.
Yesterday I stayed home all day.
Today I'm a school.
Tomorrow I'll be here.
In the future I'll be forever gone.
