cause i am in track and i am in 4th i act like i am cool some times around one of my best frineds in 6th grade and when i am in track and i think that 4th graders are faster because we have more energy to let out from school all day cause in my school we only have 15 mins of recess at our school!

It really doesn't matter what grade you are in to see if you are the fastest. It is basically how much effort and time you actually put into it. In track in HS they don't care if your a freshman you can still make the Varsity level because of how fast you run. Usually the ones who have been running for the longest amount of time generally do better in the event that they are "trained" to do. hopefully that answers your question.

In life, certain people are better at certain things at others. Some are better at math, some are better at english. Some are better are baseball than others.\n\nSome children are better at running than others. The faster kids, while having good hearts, sometimes  can't help but leave the slower children behind.

Me! I'm in fifth grade! I live in Charleston, West Virginia. I read, skateboard, play tennis, play with my 7 year old brother and I take guitar lessons. I've been taking lessons for about 2 and a half years. I play a lot of sports, but I like soccer the best. I'm not as athletic as I used to be, because my mom and dad took me out to excercise more often then they do now. They are often very busy. So now if I want to excercise, I have to run on our treadmill or play in our backyard. I'm homeschooled, but when I finish all of my stuff, I pretty much just sit around the house and play video games, play with my younger brother, use the computer and read. We don't go out as much as we used to, so I have to excersice on our treadmill. Being homeschooled means you can hang out all day, but you can be lonely sometimes, because all of my friends are nowhere near me. We have a homeschool gym class twice a week at the YMCA with various activities that my friends and I go to. And we go out to see movies together, or play in a park or go to a museum. But even then I get lonely when I'm not with them for a while, so I have to go everywhere with my family. My email address is gintrisoc@yahoo.com

My motivation for running early in the morning is that i think no one else is working as hard as me right now. I seem to have more energy through the day and once my run is over my workout is done for the day and I can get everything else accomplished that I need to.

BE CONSISTENT!!  Don't let them wear you down.  If you said you were taking recess for a month, then by golly take recess for a month.  I have a color system which correlates to their conduct grades (this works K-6). Green-great day. Yellow-warning.  Purple-loss of priviledge, loss of points.  Orange-phone call home, loss of points.  Red--minor referral (note home), loss of points.  Black--principal's office, conference with parent and loss of points.  Note that if one is on black everything above it occurs as well, etc.  I also have a ticket box.  Anytime I see good behavior, i tell them to get a ticket.  Anyone staying on green that day gets a ticket as well.  Every Friday, I pull one name out of the box for a prize out of my toybox.  We discuss the probability of pulling their name if they have only 1 ticket as opposed to 10 tickets.  Whoever makes a 100A with no warnings recieves a certificate and a prize out of my box. (I also have a record sheet for the week.)   Granted, I do have first grade but out of 17 students 15 made an A in conduct on their report cards.  1 was a B and the other was a little thief who is now making an A!

People have different abilities. Teachers are responsible for recognising that. Ok so the students get a D, it isn't the end of the world... that was about my average in school, and granted at 21 im still studying but this is not a negative thing as I believe im just building a foundation and getting a thorough understanding of the world before i really enter it. I remember these words from my childhood "if at first you don't succeed try and try again" it doesn't matter how long it takes, you should tell students in this sitution that it is ok and they should take their time, after all the snail once the race not the hare.

Our actions can have effects that travel and/ or we may be unaware of how things affect those around us. As a teacher, I wonder at how i'm affecting these kids lives. Many really like me and i wonder if they'll remember me for a long time (like i remember some of my teachers) and how much do i shape them.

I was shy when I was young hid behind my mommys leg if anyone looked at me. When I hit 7th grade it was like overnight I wasn't shy no more and wasn't embarrassed to do things. I am not sure why. They way I see it enjoy life and if someone don't like the way you are and what you say that is their problem as long as you are being nice and kind. Try humor... Just don't worry about what other people thinks.

yeah and they care more about being in the "in" crowd too. I care a lot about my school work because I don't like a lot of the people at my school and I think a lot of the "in" people are fake and I want to go to college and have a successful career and get away from this small town. But, a lot of kids don't care about their schoolwork or they just copy off people.

I was on my school's varsity team and got player of the year. You would think that I was cocky but I am completely the opposite.  I am always humble and polite. You would think that I was surrounded by girls but I was one of the shyest people at the school. I even wondered how some of the "nerds" were getting girls and I wasn't getting any.  Just remember that just because losers call us cocky bastards and we call losers losers doesn't mean that you guys are losers and were're cocky bastards. We're all the same. We just focused on two different things.

I am a freshman girl that started out at 2:48 for the 800. I improved every race, and finally started running every race at 2:30. My coach said I was an alternate for the state sectionals, because I wasn't really that fast. But then someone got taken out, and I was put in. I started out in dead last and then at the end I love sprinting so I passed 9 people and got 8th place! I got a 2:24! I was so happy because I was supposed to get like 20th place based on my 2:30 time.

me too, OMG we can definitely relate! i'm too polite and i feel like i'm interrupting other people's conversations if i just butt in. but now i'm starting to realize, but observing my friends that it's okay and that no one will hate you just because you interrupted a conversation. it's a way to make friends. and i'm also really shy. just join clubs in school, cuz that's what i do.

I did CC in high school, and it was the worst time i've ever had in my life even though i was the top runner. i think you should quit track. it realy doesn't sound like you're having a good time of it. i wish someone would have made me quit CC--my life would have been so much better!Waaay too much pressure. I've learned that all the things in HS i thought were such huuuge problems really aren't that big of a deal. If you want to talk sometime, i'm here. As for the phone thing....it won't last forever. Use the time you would've talked to friends to write in a journal, figure out things in your life.
