ALRIGHTY, well I have a lot of things to talk about so bear with me... I honestly do not understand what is going on in our class right now. There is more work in each period than any AP class that I've ever heard of. Along with our junior theme, which is by far, the biggest paper of our highschool careers. It really bothers me that Mr. S and Mr. H both are so confused about why our class doesn't give them respect. It's because they both give us so much work, no one can keep it straight! They wonder why there are a lot more zeros in all of our homework sections on our progress reports and part of me thinks it's a student rebelion against bogus teaching methods. I don't have a problem with either of them as people, for the most part they are both nice. But when it comes to how they teach, I think that they need some retooling. I wish that all the assignments could kind of "flow better" you know? Like, for instence, I wish that whatever the homework for that day is, it could be tied in with our junior themes or with the activity we did in class. Don't get me wrong, sometimes it does tie in, but it needs to more often. And what is with this NEW GIANT WHITE/GREY BOOK??!?!?!?! Is a 10 page paper not enough? We now need a new TEXT BOOK to complete in less than 19 days? I relly just fail to see how realistic that is with our timeframe. We all have other classes to adhear to and this much work is kind of hanous. And another thing about the work load, when it's as big as it is, no one is going to actually try on it. They just want to get the points and be done with it, which cripples our motivation to actualy LEARN something. Just to let you know, whoever the reader of this is. I'm sorry if I'm coming off a little hostile, but this class is seriously stressing me out right now and I KNOW I'm not the only one.
