is going on. I made sure that when I created my lesson plan, that I had some great ways to differentiate for them. Near the end of our conversation, I had many wonderful ideas to work with. At 10:15, the students came in and got started on their math lessons. Mrs. Beach taught the higher learners the lesson in a small group. These small group lessons are wonderful for differentiating instruction because Mrs. Beach is able to challenge the higher level students by giving them challenge questions

arts and languages. The comment on my reports for Math always read: “Needs to spend more time studying”. To my teacher’s frustration, I always showed a lack of interest, never paid attention in class and wouldn’t heed their advice. Add to that, having bad math teachers. I take full responsibility for my grades, but after all, my math teacher in ninth grade was fired, because we all failed the class and final exam. I was then placed in a remedial math class and I was just never able to catch up after

Virginia Commonwealth University’s (VCU) Accelerated Bachelors of Science in nursing program offers the rigorous training needed to be eligible for competitive employment. As someone who enjoys being challenged, I know I will fit in well in the VCU environment. Medicine has been and always will be an essential component to a healthy and functional society. My desire to complete a degree in the medical field stems from this as well as the constant need for caretakers around the world. My interest

sort of robotic kit and coding to play around with. But even though I may seem like an “average” teen, one thing that separates me from others is that I have grit. Math has not always come easy for me. I was disappointed when I learned that I didn’t make it into pre-algebra, and all my other friends did. I landed in Accelerated Math. The lessons that were taught were things that I already learned at my free time at home, and I felt very bored. But with the help of my parents, I decided to push myself

households, and throughout preschool and elementary school I was met with flashcards, workbooks, and encyclopedias encompassing every core subject. Yet somehow I always found time in the day to draw. In the third grade, I was accepted into an accelerated learning program (then called the “Gifted and Talented” program). For three years, I completed projects, filled workbooks, took placement tests, all to the best of my ability. It was a challenging workload for an elementary schooler, to say the

The career I career I choose for my junior project is pharmacy. I am interested in pharmacy because I love learning things about science and medicine. Pharmacists are always learning about new techniques and medicines for pharmacy. I also like helping people and the community, and this would be a great way to help out. To be able to achieve my dreams of being a pharmacist I will have to go to college. Many colleges have six year pharmacy programs. I hope to be able to make it into a college program

This Code.org certificate demonstrates my completion of the Accelerated Course on the Code website. I worked through 20 different stages in order to learn how to write and utilize code. Learning to code is important because it teaches new ways to test ideas as well as solve problems. Coding takes a lot of patience which is a skill that everyone should acquire and is one that I will need in order to be a good teacher. By completing this course, I am participating in local and global learning communities

Question 1: Upon my enrollment in high school, I joined multiple student organizations. I have been a member of my High School’s marching band, the Sound of Pride (SOP), since the eighth grade and have continued to participate every season. I marched both trombone and euphonium before becoming the Assistant Drum Major as a sophomore in the 2016 season. This past season, I was named the band’s Drum Major, becoming the school’s first junior to ever hold the title. After the conclusion of the marching

taking college level math classes, as all throughout my schooling; math has been a never ending struggle. My struggles with math reach back as long as I can remember, but they all really materialized for the first time in fifth grade. In spite of being an otherwise strong student, I was really having a tough time keeping pace in math class. It was at this time my parents and teachers intervened in my education and I was issued an Individual Educational Plan. I was moved to a math class in the special
