Educational years

morning announcements on a chunky old TV bolted to a corner. Little did our four-year-old minds know that technology in school was going to get more complicated from there. My earliest experiences with desktops were in pre-k and kindergarten. We used to go to the computer lab a few times a month. There was a program with a little customizable elephant. The elephant was somewhat like our tour guide for all the cute educational games. I liked the games but I dreaded going to the computer lab because I thought

of those people who at one point needed help all the time. In pre-school and kindergarten, I was amazing I knew all my ABC’s. I could even read a basic sentence or two, my favorite book was the “Hungry Caterpillar”. Toward the end of my kindergarten year my granddaddy got very sick, I started to struggle in school.

long-term and short-term effects of grade skipping. Park, Benbow, and Lubunski (2013) used the Study of Mathematically Precocious Youth, a 40 year longitudinal study, to determine if skipping a grade has long-term effects on performance in STEM fields. The main goal was to find if individuals who skipped a grade after identification at or before thirteen years of age were more likely to receive advanced degrees and accomplishments in STEM fields, reach those achievements faster than their peers who

You see, I am that student that came to school daily in flight-or-fight mode. My father was an abusive parent, mentally, physically, and sexually. He was also an alcoholic. My years from kindergarten to second grade are vague, with the exceptions of a few prominent memories and feelings of being constantly scared. My year in first grade, my mother made the decision to leave. One night, while my father was out drinking, my mother's co-worker came in a U-haul truck, we loaded up the truck and left

tunneling tends to narrow our children’s education. The percentages of failures indicate change is needed. A new form of educating our children, which is really a return to the schoolhouse-type of education, is Mixed Age Education.

CNSMPTN On the channel Nickelodeon Junior, there is a popular kids show called Dora the Explorer. Boots, Dora’s companion, helps Dora on her educational Spanish adventures and aids her in warding off the sneaky fox, Swiper. When I worked at Nickelodeon some three years ago, I was the storyboard director, and oversaw many episodes of Dora being made every day. This included going to screenings of new episodes.

In middle school, 5th to 8th grade, I endure multiple adjective to describe my experience in middle school. While in Middle School, I struggle with my appearance which has stayed as an adult. For I always look at myself and all the flaws in my features, as my family members and/or friends state my beauty features, I will brushed them off by stating the negative feature I visually observe.
