Academic Language Week 29 - School Conferences



Parents should not have to face jail time for missing their child’s school conference. Some parents can be single parents who are working at the time or having to take care of their other children at home. They are RESOURCES some parents can SEEK to get help taking care of their children. However some parents refuse to let other programs or adults take care of their children for fear that they may become injured or mistreated. Another reason is that some parents might have to work such as lawyers or doctors who are almost always on call. This type of work field makes it difficult for parents to TRANSFER from one place to the other. Making it extremely difficult for parents to show up to their child’s school conference. In conclusion parents should not have to face jail time for missing their child’s school conference.

Testing Thoughts Paragraph


I have already taken the CAHSEE a couple of times I passed the English portion of it the first time, but I always miss the math portion by a couple of points. I wasn't told if I needed to take the CAHSEE this time around so I hope I finally passed it. The first time however that I took the CASHEE I was really nervous. I calmed myself down a little, and then I just tried to relax and I did OK. The next day I freaked out though and I was like really stressed and tired, I had my head down most of the time because I was having a really hard time concentrating. I failed my test that day, but I still kept trying on it. Every time I get stressed during a test I go take like a 5 minute walk and then go back and finish.
