Write some notes about your imaginary ideal school?

I think the ideal school would have 30 minute class sessions- not too short that the information cant be taught, but not too long that the students lose focus.  I think that the perfect class size is about 15 people because there are enough people to have great discussions as a large group, and also enough people to break into smaller groups.  Smaller classes allow for the teacher to spend more time with each student individually and no student can "hide" in the crowd.  In terms of number of lessons I think that beyond the usual math, science, social studies that the student should decide how many additional classes that they want to take.  Some students choose to push themselves and they should be able to do so, those that do not want to shouldn't have to.  The ideal school would have state of the art computers and technology.  There would be an olympic size pool, weightlifting room, track to run on etc.  The school should offer a full range of facilities from a fully stocked library to a fully stocked gym to meet every students needs.  The ideal school should also offer accomodations for disabled students, whether they are physically or mentally disabled.  Extra curricular activities?  The sky should be the limit.  Let the students pick and create after school activities that they enjoy.  Let them create and run their opwn clubs after school.  Why lock them into the generic english club, art club, etc.  Lastly, cost in ideal world this school would be free and open to everyone, but unfortunately all of the things that i have outlined cost money and probably lots of it.  However, if taxpayers were willing to take on that cost, it would really help to make the school open to everyone who chose to attend it.

I think you should do an article on how school is important in the "real world", for example...why learning to spell "magazine" and "quickly" may be important if you plan on working for a real magazine some day.\n\nThe articles you write now will be the tear sheets you submit for articles you submit to "real" magazines and to potential colleges!\n\nOther than that..I think an article on peer pressure could be interesting.

Probably the kind in the syllabus.  You can probably get an idea on-line by searching for information on that class on the school's website.

Come up with a general thesis, like "Evil exists because of humans" or something like that. Then find your sources. Write a long paragraph based on the information from each source that pertains to that thesis. Then, put the paragraphs from each source in some sort of order, based on how they flow the best. Then, in between each paragraph, fill in with more paragraphs that combine ideas with one another, so that they flow. If you used, say, 6 sources, you should have about 6 pages by now. Then, read through and fill in points and embellish the ideas that are already there. Voila... 12 pages. Make sure you take snack and rest breaks every 2 hours or so. Good luck!

Assuming you know the proper layout for an outline, some of the ideas you could address are - grade requirements for entry, location, extracurricular activities available, size of student body, available activities in the college town, reputation of academics at the college, jr. college versus four year college, graduate study available, scholarships available.  Hope this helps!

write about what makes the school a great school and why you want to go there.   Include all the educational type stuff you can think of instead of things like "because it's the closest".\n\nWhat's the essay for?  If it is a class placement type thing where they want to see what level English you need, write about whatever you want to.  Double check your spelling, punctuation, run on sentences, etc

You might want to go to their website and try contacting them that way. Who knows? I think that might be a cool idea for a show. Having a class of school kids come in to watch them build a bike. Maybe your class could have a contest to come up with an idea for a bike. You never know. Stranger things have happened.

hold up/display images of symbols that your kids would be able to easily guess i.e. the mcdonalds arches, the nike swoosh, peace sign, the man/woman you always see on the restroom door, etc.  this will get kids warmed up to the notion that ideas can be symbolized by something other than the words for those ideas, also that they are surrounded by symbolism everyday, everywhere (this always help to counter the "where am i ever gonna use this" complaint).\n\nnext, display for the class an object that would be easy to use in symbolizing many things.  i'll sugggest a rock.  have them describe the characteristics of a rock - strong, hard, dirty, ordinary... on one side of a chart.  then, as a class have them brainstorm other things/people that share some of these characteristics on the other side.\n\nthird, have a bunch of slips of paper in a hat/bucket/whatever, with each slip having something on it like tree, bird, phone, stairs, bench, etc...  have each student pull out a slip of paper from the hat.  have students brainstorm the characteristics of their object, and then characteristics of themselves (may be helpful to have a framework for this - like a worksheet that says "looks like", "smells like", "sounds like" etc. for both object and student).  have students come up with ways their object could symbolize them.\n\nhave students share their symbolisms with the class

I'd love to come back as myself, but.... with the same mental ability I have now. So I could experience being born, appreciate my childhood and parents more.\n\nIt would be cool knowing everything at kindergarden. \nwhen the teacher asks the class to draw a picture about the 'cat on the mat', you could write a 25 page thesis on the exploration of storytelling for development of children in early childhood.\n\nIt would be neato!
