Eighth grade

I will be writing this essay to give advice to upcoming eighth graders. I will speak in three main points in this essay. Eighth grade is not that hard if you try. But trying includes dedication, dedication means school first. In this essay I will talk about how hard you need to work, how some of the teachers work, and finally the best class in my opinion. First, I will write on how hard you need to work. When you get in the eighth grade, it is a different ball game. If you do not do your homework in Coach Davis’s class then you will fail the test. You need to be dedicated to do school work before any other hobby besides going to church. If you work hard, there is no reason why you couldn’t make straight A’s you eighth grade year. Next, I will…

Joe Bucks was just an ordinary 7th grade kid. In fact, he was so ordinary that everybody in his grade looked at him as if he were nothing. Everybody around him had some sort of talent, from running to playing the violin. Everybody had warned Joe that seventh grade is the hardest year to go through, but he never imagined it would be this bad. Nobody wanted to be his friend, and everybody made fun of him for having no talent. Joe was a little wimpier than the rest of his peers which made it that…

Eighth Grade Reflection Over the course of eighth grade I have learned and experienced many new, exciting things. Becoming a part of the high school has allowed me to try new sports and learn more about myself and my friends. Before my first day I had an idea of what I thought this year would be like. There’s no way I would have been able to imagine what eighth grade actually turned out to be! I’ve grown in innumerable ways after experiencing this year. After accomplishing so much this year, if…

Every since 7th grade I was in ABC. ABC is an advance class of orchestra where we play anything but classical music, hence the name. ABC was a class that started before school, and anyone who was in 7th or 8th grade could join. Usually our orchestra teacher was Mr. Hudson but the teacher for ABC was Mrs. Dykman. ABC music in middle school is meant to be harder and faster but at the time the music seemed easier and I was ready for a challenge. Mrs. Dykman told us our 8th grade year that if…

For as long as I can remember, I have had a burning desire to earn my bachelor’s degree, a goal which has been set for countless years. My future goal is to complete my bachelor’s degree with an emphasis in math and English, with the ultimate goal to teach algebra at any level between the seventh and tenth grades. My eighth grade algebra teacher helped me achieve an understanding of algebra that I never knew existed, instilling in me a desire to pass on an understanding of and an excitement…

When people think about graduation, whether it be eighth grade, high school, or college, it’s normally one of the best moments of their life. They’ve just accomplished a huge feat in their life, which is cause for a celebration. They are one step closer to achieving the ultimate goal they have set for themselves and are also maturing through the stages of life, gaining more responsibilities that will eventually shape them into well-rounded adults. However, this wasn’t the case for my eight grade…

the classroom, and I have also had many opportunities to explore math beyond the required work and have acquired multiple awards. In fifth and sixth grade, I participated in the math team in the “bases” division and proudly aced every competition except for one. In fifth and seventh grade, I received distinctions in the Olympiads for scoring high. In seventh grade, I also participated in the New England Math competition and received a distinction for having the top score in my grade. Model UN…

winning and losing did not matter at all. As long as I got to throw, hit, and catch the ball, I was happy. Like all little kids, I just wanted to get to feel the thrill of getting a hit and running around all of the bases to make it home. At six years old not only was I new to the sport of softball, but also to the girls that were signed up for the team. Prior to living in Brasher Falls and playing softball in North Lawrence, my family lived in Bombay. I have always been very talkative,…

your own style. I have two older siblings; a brother and a sister, and my sister is only a year older than I am. This tempted me to want to be just like her, which she did not enjoy as much as I did. I would try to be friends with her friends and of course at younger ages, we did not get along, so she would tend to push me out of her life. This was the most horrible feeling when I was younger, but today I thank her for it due to the fact that she pushed me to be my own person. Since middle…
