CST Testing Reflection

Today I finished taking the last test which was based on science. I seriously hated this whole week of testing. It was so long that I really do not want to go through it again next year.The first day of testing was ok because I got to take my English test with my favorite teacher Ms. Priester. The next day I was very happy because I did not have to test so all I did was stay in the gym With coach Burgo and play some basketball. Unfortunately the following morning I had to test in biology and World History. I really hated taking the world history test because I seriously strongly dislike the subject. I believe that it is the most boring subject that can be taught by a teacher. At the same time I its hard to try and learn it when I don't want to! Over all this whole testing week was very long. I was very exhausted at the end of every session and day and thinking I had to do it the next day made it worse. I am pretty confident that I did a great job on my tests. I am also sure that I have improved compared to my freshmen year test scores. I am looking forward to my results.

Testing Tips, Strategies, and Plays Reflection

Comprehending and being able to know tips, strategies, and plays helps a student out on testing because the testing can be done much quicker with no hesitation. For example before taking the test the teacher or person giving out the test reads some instructions of tasks that must be complete. If a student were to not listen to the instructions that he or she has expressed the student can mess some sort of information like the number to the booklet or the wrong information in the wrong place. Another example is when teachers or people giving the test let the students know that they have a certain time limit. Certain students are slower then others and may not finish in the time that was set causing students to rebel and complain about how they are not done. A great strategy for this type of situation would be starting a little earlier then others if possible. There are many ways tips, strategies, and plays help students out on testing and the one's mentioned above are not even half of them.

My Feelings about the Upcoming CSTs

I am a little nervous to start the star testing but also very excited. according to my calculations I always feel a little nervous but this is the first time I've ever felt excited about testing. The reason I am feeling excited about taking these tests is because I feel that I have progressed sense my freshmen year here at San Pasqual Academy. I believe that my grades have increased tremendously. I also believe that I have learned plenty of the material that is on the tests that we are going to take. I always feel nervous when it comes to seeing the test right in front of me because I feel like I forget all the material that I have gone through and learned. Right now at this very moment I am still nervous but I know that when I start it I will feel accomplished.

Today I am going to wright about my weekend starting with Friday. On Friday I was ready to finish the school day. I feel like it went pretty slow actually especially because it was hot. When school was over at 12:50 I had a Key Club meeting in the career center. The whole group gathered up and talked about future plans and then ate a lot of pepperoni/ Hawaiian pizza. After that I basically spent the rest of my day home and rested. On Saturday morning I woke up around 9am and started getting ready. I curled my hair and put some nice clothing on and headed out to my boyfriends house. Saturday was also Family Day so my boyfriend and I went to the clinic and watched the talent show. All the students that participated in the show did and outstanding job! Later on that night I went home and got ready for a night party in the auditorium. I had a great tie dancing with my boyfriend and my friends. I had a great time over all this weekend.

Playwrights Project Inspired by Music Paragraph

In class today, we had to write three scenes that we could imagine while listening to three different instrumentals. While listening to the first song I wrote about a young girl named Ishmaely stranded in a deserted island. The song brought sadness and loneliness so I wrote that the girl was by herself next to the water ready to stand up and head to sit up on a rock. For the second song I wrote about a 17 year old girl who was escaping her house every night to go sell her body to drunk men. This young girl was only trying to support her mom because her mother had no money. The reason I wrote about this was because it was the first thing that automatically popped up in my head as the song finished. At first, I was not really looking forward to doing the assignment because it took imagination and I really though I wasn't going to be able to do it but then the imagination came out really easy. While listening to the music, I came up with more then one story but I feel I chose the one I wanted to be heard. While I was writing, I I felt like I was able to describe in detail what was in my mind and I also felt like I could actually see it all happening. Afterward, I felt great because I found out I can actually wright a play and my stories would be great to listen to.

Third Quarter Awards Review

Today I attended a San Pasqual Academy awards assembly in the auditorium during 5Th and 6Th period. The awards assembly was held in order to acknowledge students with certain high GPA's. It was also held in order to recognize the great job students have done not only in academics but also in being great role models and behaviors outside of school. I was one of the students who received a award along with a 25$ check because I was able to keep a 3.0 through a 3.5 GPA. Receiving that award made me feel very proud of myself and let me know that hard work does really pay off in the end. I was also happy to see the friends of San Pasqual add an award to recognize the students that are welcoming and open to them when they come visit us. Over all I had a great time and I am very proud that Joseph B. and Yajaria O. are representing our sophmore class as students of the quarter. I am looking forward to the next assembly and recieve another award.

“Switch” Play Audience Member Experience

Today all my sophomore class and some juniors attended a field trip. This field was held in downtown, San Diego at 11am. I had a great time because I got to watch a group of people act out different situations in which foster youth are put in. They did a great job acting each and every situation out especially when the new family had arrived to pick a child up because the mother could no longer support him. I was able to relate to many of the scenes but overall the one that touched me the most was when a young girl named "Swipper" was singing happy birthday to herself. As I watched the actor play that role I remembered when I was in that situation and sang happy birthday to myself. After the whole play the whole group gathered and ate some pizza. We later on took group pictures and headed back to spa. Overall the play was great and hope to see another one again.

P.S Thank you Ms. Priester for taking us all and I am not looking forward to leaving your class after this quarter!! At all!!!!!

Fourth Quarter Kickoff Reflection

I had a great time at forth Quarter kickoff! I was already happy because school did not start until 9am that morning. All the students entered school at 9 am and were sperated into 6 groups. We started our first period by heading to the tech center and watching a movie and answering some questions. Then we re-wrote our goals for the 4Th quarter. Following we had a raffle and I won a bag of cookies and a water bottle. After 1st period was all the groups went to lunch. After lunch was over my group and I headed to the football field and played some water games! Of course we won first place! After a good 30 min. playing that we headed to the softball field and played some fake softball with waffle balls. It was pretty fun as I got to hang out and talk to my friends. After playing waffle ball my group and I went to the gym and played a game involving volleyball's, jail, and plenty of running. Over all I had a great time with my friends and playing these games. I am definitely looking forward to doing this again.

When I hang out outside I see the blue sky

as I blew the bubbles into the side

I stand here and hear nothing but the whistle sound that the wind makes as it passes by

the weather is hot I do not know wether to head to the pool or stay home and rest
