New Teacher

Thursday, February 12, 2009

Peace, Love,and Power, my name is Michael Young. I'm in the 8th grade, and I enjoy learning. I am looking forward to meeting you mothura/mothuri. The point of this essay is to inform you on how I learn, What I've learned in Social Studies,and how a little freetime should be implied if earned.

To begin, students learn in different ways, I particularly by audio and visual teaching. I find hearing things eay because I have a good memory(for now). The same rule applies for visual learning. I do learn by reading something,occasionally. I believe, this information is helpul to you.

Next, we've learned a variety o thing in social studies. Our former social studies teacher taught us about "The 3 Great West African Empires". We learned "The 3 Great West Arican Empires" were The empires of Ghana, Mali, and Songhay. In addition, we discussed how Christopher Columbus didn't discover the "New World" but died thinking he had found a faster trade route to India. We also discuss how he treated the Indians.

Finally, if earned freetime should be available to the student body. I like to learn,but freetime is good sometimes. I don' t need freetime but it would be nice. Freetime could be something as simple as talking or us using the computer lab downstairs. Freetime could help the teachegrs grade papers and the students socialize.

In conclusion, I learn by hearing and seeing. We've learned a variety of things in Social Studies. Next, freetime would be nice if earned. Finally, I look forward to meeting you and hope we have a good year together.
