What would you change in high school? On Sunday evening teens on twitter where asked ONE thing they would change about high school and why? Teens are willing to change time schedule to cafeteria food. There where 20 teens that tweeted to this question. The teens are asking for time, help in school and career offers. As I was reading these tweets everyone is wanting something to change high school but most tweets are for learning. one tweet that was posted that i got attached to was this one" The courses available. My school doesn't offer any classes that are going to help me with the careers I'm interested in".
I think that this shouldn't happen to students because they should be able to choose there own courses to have their own career. Students have also tweeted about letter grades which has been discussed already but has people tweeting about because they care that they are telling people what they want to change about high school and its there own opinion.
In high school i thought you would have more opportunities to classes and different courses but when i see these tweets i see that students are not enjoying high school because their not getting what they wanted to learn like in the tweet i posted on the top. Theses students need to be heard to learn. The students want more activities and clubs so they have a chance to enjoy high school. Some students are complaining that teachers aren't doing what they need to do and teach more and not start with lowest common of teaching. i think this is a good topic to talk about because theses students give ideas and opportunities to learn better and have a good career for collage/university.

Hi Merna! I agree with your opinion that in order for students to learn, they also need to be heard. You introduced the topic to the reader very well, and you concluded on the topic very well. According to the tweet you pasted on, the tweet is about the schools not offering enough choices for the student - and you commented saying that students should have their own courses to choose from. So i got a little puzzled there, whether you were commenting on that tweet or not. Also, I think you should reread since there's some grammar mistakes. You did a good job stating your own thoughts, and having ideas to backup what you're saying. Overall, nice try! Keep up the good effort!
ReplyDeleteHello! You did a good job with your introduction; I was able to see what the post was going to be about, You had a few usage mistakes and typos, so make sure you go back and fix those. Also, maybe you could expand a little bit more on the information of this event, such as giving more examples of other things the students have requested to change about high school. However, I think you made a valid effort. Keep doing your best and strive to improve! Nice job!
