...well as society as a whole. There is information on how children are taught, and the way their learning behaviors develop in Japan, as well as compared to that of our American curriculums. Anyone can be under stress, students are one group of people who especially during those angst teenage years undergo a vast majority of stress. A survey by the American Psychological Association found that nearly half of all teens — 45 percent — said they were stressed by school pressures. (Neighmond). In the report we will try to compare the differences between what students in the United States go through in comparison to those in Japan. In Japan the Japanese teaching guidelines are very different from what we here are used to. In Japan children are not separated based on how well or bad they are performing in school rather their age, and they are expected to have the diligence to simply catch upon their own. Not only are the teaching styles different, nor just the way students learn, the schools themselves are different. The school calendar year in Japan is longer than that of the U.S, thus resulting in higher stress in Students. We reviewed how the stressors Japanese students undergo, has lead to an increase in teen suicide, and how some of those stressors differentiate from those teens here face. The paper not only focuses on the stress, and development of teens, rather it focuses on how stress varies in different cultures. The teaching styles vary, the learning styles, the everyday...

I would also watch videos to learn how to dance. My family traveled a lot during the summer I visited many lakes and beaches I was always team captain on the teams I guess that is what lead me to my career in law enforcement and many other team lead positions I love being in charge. Growing up in the country I had nothing to do but play outside mostly with boys who would tell me you got to be tough to hang with us we do not want a cry baby hanging with us. My father was dying to have a child that was athletic it was almost as if I was his last chance none of my siblings seem to even be interested any sports. It all started in elementary school during summer leagues I would always look for the information for basketball summer leagues. My physical education teacher would always tell me you need to make sure you are playing sports every year, tell your parents to give me a call and I will even pick you up and take you myself even if they cannot. My desires to be outstanding in sports lead me to practice every day. My father encourages me he was my biggest support. Its 1980 now it is time to show my talent in middle school. Basketball and volleyball try outs and I am playing my heart out because it seems like everyone is taller than I. I make the teams as captain because I am more talented...

...National Junior Honor Society Application Essay Scholarship I believe that I have demonstrated scholarship throughout the experience that I have had so far at Carmel Middle School. Every quarter last year and this year, I have earned a 4.0 GPA. Doing my best in school is important to me because learning is a huge part in life and it is the beginning of the path to getting good jobs. If you do not learn then you would never grow and expand your mind. Getting good grades is also important to me because it gives me a sense of accomplishment and it is reflects my hard work. Participation and Leadership I take part in many school and community activities. At school I am a member of multiple clubs such as Next Steps Bible Club, CRU Bible Study, choir, track, and I was a member of the seventh grade volleyball team. Some of the other co-curricular activities that I enjoy participating in outside of school are guitar lessons, babysitting and confirmation through my church. One of the things that I am proud of is when I did the annual lemonade stand day. I was interviewed about the entrepreneurial lessons learned that I had learned from doing lemonade stands, and that interview was put in the paper. Also, in Carmel Dad’s Club Basketball I...

...the way you view the world and the people you come in contact with every day. An important influential aspect of my world view comes from my education. Looking back at the educational influence of my parents, a direct parallel to who I was as a student in my past and the student I have grown into is illustrated. Both my parents were high school graduates. My mother was a book worm who excelled at anything and everything she did. While my father was a social butterfly who got through school with his smile and charm. Much like a double edged sword, I received a little of both academic and social influences from my parents. In grade school, as a child, I went to school in the San Ramon Valley Unified School District and received great educational instruction. Both, middle school and high school were no different in the level of education I received. Sadly, I was unaware of how my performance in high school would greatly affect my future, and as the contribution of my father’s genes, I was a social butterfly more than an academic book worm like my mother. Ultimately, I never applied for a real college experience and went to cosmetology school instead. Though a career in cosmetology is not one to be ashamed of, I believed, for myself there was more out there. Now I find...

...I was excited to attend my new school all of this was an adventure for me. It was as if we were on a long vacation going place to place. I went to Thurgood Marshall Elementary School for fourth grade until the year was over we had bought a house and it was time to move again. Completing fifth grade at Castle Hills Elementary, I moved on to middle school by this time I was aware and caught up on how things work in this country. I made friends new hobbies, learned to play new sports, and so much more. My brother came into this world on March 28, 2011, which made things even more exciting as I had someone to grow up with. After I spent three years of schooling at George Read Middle School I was on to William Penn: the biggest school I have yet to see. At the high school, everything was up to you. There were more responsibilities you had to take care of as a student or even at home parents would expect more from you. Only completing my Freshman year at the school, I decided since I was into science a lot, therefore I applied to Conrad Schools of Science. After my submission, Interview and application I got...

...Writing Activities: Telling a Story in your English class This is an activity you can do if you're talking about interesting experiences, achievements, or telling stories. Give the students a few minutes to write about something that they've experienced in the past. The examples I give them are: paragliding or bungee jumping, meeting their girlfriend or boyfriend, a special vacation, eating an interesting food, etc. When the students are finished writing, have them put their names on the paper. Collect them. At this point, I'll usually put the students in teams of 2 or 3. Then, read the papers out loud to the class and have the students write down the name of the person they think it is. Exchange papers with another group, give answers and you have your winner. This works well in my classes because even though there are about 20 people, they know each other well because they are all the same major and have all their classes together. If there are some students not of the same major who are repeating the class, I'll make sure to put them in a group with other students who know the majority of the students. This could also work well for a smaller, more advanced level class of mixed-major students as a "get to know each other" kind of activity. I had some fun with the options on my cheap digital camera this week. I noticed that on many photo programs there are magazine templates available with some of these cameras with such titles as BOSS,FORTUNE, ADVENTURER, etc. so I copied...

...tape recorder he would use to tape songs that came up on the radio. He used it also, to keep track of all the songs my older brother, Alex, learned while attending preschool. In some of those recordings, my baby voice popped trying to imitate his singing. He guided me "¡No Fabish, asi no va, anda canta conmigo, asi, asi¡" (No Fabish, is like this, come on! Sing with me, like this, like this...) His gentle yet firm input provided me with a model to emulate, it enabled me to produce elaborate utterances through singing at an early age. I was one and a half years old when Alex started preschool, from then on, I didn't stop singing, there are more tapes of my preschool singing than all my three brothers combined. I liked learning. I liked school, I still do, and in a big measure I owe it to my older brother Alex's patience and kindness. He was my first teacher. Kindergarten. I wish I could remember more details of the process of my literacy acquisition skills that took place in kindergarten, unfortunately besides the singing I do not. The memories I have had come from going through boxes of old notebooks, worksheets, and collections of artwork that my mother had kept all these years. What these educational archives tell me is that the focus of my early education was on developing the motor skills necessary to write well. There are numerous pages of notebooks filled with continuous pencil strokes resembling worms, zig zags or tunnels. The calligraphy exercises eventually moved...

...Tiange Zou Dr.Backman English 100 January 30, 2012 Memoir of an Autistic Kid I was born and raised in China. According to its law every family is only allowed to have one child. Therefore, I grew up with no brothers or sisters. My parents used to be very busy with their work when I was a toddler. They left home very early in the morning and came back very late, so I did not see my parents often. My grandma was the only person to look after me at that time. Thinking back, the only time I saw my parents was during the weekends. I would sometimes look for my mom and dad. I asked my grandma one time: “where are Mom and Dad?” My grandma was a very humble and good-hearted person. She would say, “Mom and dad are working today and they will bring your favorite toys home tonight. So, you had better be a good boy tonight and finish your dinner.” I did not see any toy the next day and would forget to ask about my toys.My grandma used to spoil me a lot because my parents were not around and I was her only grandson at the time. She would feed me 3 meals a day and give me anything I ask for. She would carry me around even though I was capable of walking by myself. She would not to go to sleep before I fall asleep.Under this kind of circumstance, I gradually became self-centered and did not know how to communicate with others well. When I grew much older, I thought I was very special and could have everything from...

...A Study of Middle Grades Students’ Reading Interests, Habits, and Achievement Nichole Lynnette Smith A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Education in the School of Education. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved By: Dr. Barbara Day Dr. Frank Brown Dr. Sandra Hughes-Hassell Dr. Teresa Petty Dr. Xue Lan Rong i © 2009 Nichole Lynnette Smith ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Nichole Lynnette Smith: A Study of Middle Grades Students’ Reading Interests, Habits, and Achievement (Under the direction of Dr. Barbara Day, Advisor) Reading has become an area of concern among the American culture in the past decade. The amount of time the American public spends reading is declining quickly, and its most frequent drop has been among its youngest readers, elementary school students (National Endowment for the Arts, 2004). McKool’s (2007) research has found that there is a “strong relationship between the amount of out-of-school reading a student engages in and his or her success in school” (p. 111). It has also been found that students’ academic levels do not remain the same with no growth, but their academic levels actually drop if they do not read in their free time (Hughes- Hassell & Lutz, 2006). The current literature focuses on younger students, especially those in elementary school. The purpose of this study was to investigate potential differences of what influences...

...CURRICULUM CENTER THE CRIMSON GROUP, INC. Boulder Public Schools Edward Caton, a teacher in a midsize elementary school in Boulder, Colorado, hoped someday to rise through the administrative ranks to serve as a principal of his own school, but he felt that to do so, he should understand more about the position to which he aspired. This was especially important to him in terms of the control he might have over the budget, which he knew was central to real power in many organizations. In an effort to learn more about the operations of the Boulder Public Schools, he set up some informational interviews with the principals of an elementary school, a middle school, and a high school. Before making those rounds, he visited the headquarters of the Boulder School Committee to obtain background information for his interviews. BACKGROUND Mr. Caton learned that the Department of Implementation (DI) was central to the school system. It’s manager reported directly to the Superintendent of Schools. The DI was responsible for making school enrollment projections each December for the coming fiscal year (which ran from July to June). These projections were important since annual staffing needs for each school were determined by a rather complex formula that used the DI's projections as the starting point. Moreover, since personnel formed the bulk of the budget, these projections effectively determined a school's budget. Each school had a few weeks to challenge the DI’s projections, and...

...scientists just because you do the right thing. As a youth, I learned both good and bad examples of academic success from my parents. The first thing I learned was that mom was a high school graduate but my dad had to drop out of school in the ninth grade. Discovering the educational levels of my parents was important to me because I felt their success in life would be the same as mine, all I had to do was get through school, graduating or not and I’d have money, cars, a house and a family. During my earlier years of learning (elementary school), my parents did not review my school work for accuracy, nor were they members of the Parent Teacher Association (PTA). My parents had hectic schedules; my dad would leave for work early in the morning and return late in the evening, while my mom would leave for work in the afternoon and return late at night. I didn’t have anyone to check to see if my homework was finished or help me with school work; my parents relied on the school system in order to make that happen. As my educational requirements began to get harder (middle school), my grades started to falter, all I could think about was having fun with my friends. My parents would always tell me that I could only blame myself if my grades did not improve but I felt that otherwise. Upon entering high school, I only cared about sports, girls and showing off around my friends, my...
