School Returneth!

Matthias720 · August 25, 2011, 02:17:35 AM

All across North America (and other continents, I suspect) school/college is either starting or about to start. What are you looking forward to, and what do you dread?

Personally, I'm wrapping up a Associate's Degree in small business this semester. It's both exciting and slightly nerve-wracking.

I'm the teacher not the student....

I'd like to continue to see parent participation in their students successes and help them through their trying times. I'd like a greater sense of respect in my classroom, and if it goes like last year, it won't be half bad.

A couple of students I'll just really have to keep my eye on what they do because they are definitely a challenge!

I'm going into my second year of college; I'm double-majoring in two computers majors. I'm looking forward to the fact that 3 out of the 4 classes I'm taking are computer-related. I'm NOT looking forward to three-hour long class periods (I will have two of them, once a week each) or the difficulty of chemistry.

I'm looking forward to school. I'm not sure what I'm not looking forward to.

Yeah, I just didn't realize how different our school terms and stuff were!

Huh. You know I'm homeschooled, which means that we can work even on really-super heavy days of snow. I usually finish school for the year ahead of all of the public schools. I'm looking forward to Science and English, but not Math. Science, because I just love science, English, because I know it all already, so it'll be easy, and Math I'm not looking forward to, becasue it's the year I start to learn Algebra.

Skalrag of Marshank · August 25, 2011, 03:34:01 PM

Agh, I start algebra this year, too.

I'm going into 7th grade. I'm kind of excited to start school and see all my friends again, although I'm not excited for P.E., or math.

Lutra · August 25, 2011, 05:59:03 PM

^ That's nuts you guys start algebra so early. Sign of the global times I guess...I didn't remember seeing algebra until I got to high school. One of my cousins is going into 8th grade and needed help. I even had a bit of trouble with some of the questions!

What do you take by high school then...advanced calculus or are you done?

Trigoma · August 25, 2011, 06:02:07 PM

sheesh im just in high school O_O and it started like 3 weeks ago :O and im not looking forward to any of it! ;_;

Same here, it doesn't matter what the weathers like. I'm starting pre-algebra this year too, but I've already taken Geometry (Go figure

) in which we went over some of it and I've looked though the book and it doesn't look too hard.

Math was made for me to doodle, English is boring, so I do it, then forget it as soon as can. Art and music is FUN! My favorite part of school is drawing mice, squirrels and otters on the back of my paper.
