I glow with pride after I finally learn a piano piece that I’ve been working on. After I’ve spent weeks learning the different parts of the music, the moment when I can play the whole piece start to finish is exciting. It makes me feel good that I have accomplished that.

It’s that time of year again! The time when “No. 2 pencils” and “non-graphing calculators” are brought out to be used to fill in the little answer bubbles on standardized tests. Where I live we take I-STEP and NWEA in eighth grade. I-STEP is the state-wide test. We take the short answer and essay portion in the March and the multiple choice portion on the computer in April. In eighth grade, we only have to take Math and Language. (We took Science and Social Studies in past years.) NWEA is taken both in the fall and in the spring and entirely on the computer. We take three tests: Math, Reading, and English.
Even though these tests can be tedious and seem like a waste of time, the scores on these tests are important because they are used to determine our school’s quality and moving into advanced classes. We also do not have much homework the weeks of these tests!
What standardized tests do you take? Do you think that they are a waste of time?
Todos los días, a las dos menos diez, tengo la clase de español. Este año estoy en español dos. Mi profesora es Señora Zamudio. Sra. Zamudio dio a luz a un niño, Niko, y tenimos una profesora sustituta, Señora Overstreet, por tres meses. Pero ahora Sra. Zamudio es volvienda.
Nuestra clase, hora siete, es muy divertida. Es la última clase del día. Nuestra canción es el primero de “The Banana Song.” Nos gusta la película Nacho Libre. Muchas veces en la clase, creamos y presentamos skits. Los skits siempre son desmesurados y graciosos.
Ahora estamos aprendando vocabulario de la comida. En la gramática estamos aprendando la diferencia del pretérito y el imperfecto.
