Use games by Diamondny Colbert

The school has some what of a good environment from the looks of it, but really I would say scary. The faculty is easy to get along with; we have some good teachers. My four years of high school can be viewed as a senior class teacher or freshman. Those years are the worst. Freshman year is all about being childish, playing all the time, talking etc. Basically we don’t take high school serious in the beginning. Senior year everyone’s considered real grown, most of the students have seniorities so bad that they don’t want to do any work. Taking a job at cedar shoals is just like taking a major risk. You have to have courage and patience to put up with all the mess. You have to be dedicated to your job, you cant let the students take advantage of you because they will try to especially if you’re a new teacher. Sometimes I can just see the expressions on a teachers face and they just feel like giving up.
But all about the school isn’t just negativity, its fun if make it fun. A good teacher can survive but they have to keep us wild children occupied. A good way to keep your students occupied is to make games like jeopardy to help study. A good way to award your students is to bring them gifts or prizes then that will encourage them to do more work.
If I was my decision to be a teacher at Cedar Shoals I would because I really think I could handle the students because I have had a good experience at my school and I see what different students like to do.

    I like this essay because it actually tells how every student in high school feels. By the time a student reaches their senior year they wish they wouldnt have played around their senior year because it al catches up to you. Especially the playing around your freshman year. I also like how you talked about how teachrs should reward their students toencourage them.
