Teachers

Some of the teachers are going to be mean and hard on you guys and also some of the teachers are nice and they will be nice to you and not give you a lot of homework for the weekend. Also when you have math you would have to listen very carefully because you would have to remember it for the test that comes up. Whenever you have a problem, you should ask during that class because if you wait till the next class you will forget all about it. Take down notes so that when you are studying for a math test or science test you know what to study because of the tests.

Mr. Healy is nice but you don't want to talk in reading time or else...

My teachers are Mr. Banks and Mr. Healy. If you have Mr. Banks, I would suggest you not to argue with him. He sends you out of class very often if you talk a lot. In science Mr. Banks grades your reflective essay really hard and you have to reflect what you learn a lot. In Humanities class you have to write essays about the book that you are reading almost every month. The good thing about Mr. Healy's class is that you get to read your own book in the beginning of class. I don’t know what to say to you guys. I guess for some of you, I would say “I hope you enjoyed 6th grade because 7th grade will be much worst!” and for others, I would say that it’d be very similar (excluding the field trips).

I would say that 7th grade will be much worse because for some of you, you might end up with some mean teachers (not mentioning names). And also, as you probably know, some teachers give more or less homework than other teachers.

Mr. Banks is the kind of guy who will let you eat in class but he is also the type of guy would be a great principal because of his bossy attitude and his great eye on catching people who are out of dress code. There are obviously much more things about him but I don’t want to scare you now.

Don't question any of the teachers on any amount of anything. There will be more projects that require full effort and creativity. Having fun is the most important thing the teachers want even if it doesn’t seem like it at first. Good Luck!

The teachers were comforting and let you have fun. As the year goes on you have to remember the responsibilities you have. Best advice is complete your homework everyday. I teacher loves a student who is consistent in turning in their work Mr. McGovern especially. You will see that you will have a lot of fun in seventh grade as long as you listen to your teachers. If you do well they’ll reward you with say games of theater sports (Ms. Ulster).

If you have Mr. Banks as your math/science teacher, you have to listen and follow his instructions. Behave when you are in his class but, when he makes jokes, you must laugh.

All though I only had two teachers, I met all the rest and they too are really nice.

If you do have Mr. McGovern, make sure to make fun of all the Canadian sports teams!

Warning: the teachers will mark you off if you forget to do the thing they assign, sometimes 20% or up to 30%.

I don’t have much to say but just be good to the teacher. If you don’t respect the teacher the teacher won’t respect you and that is only my opinion. Teachers will grade much harder than last year. If you do well in 7th grade then you don’t have to worry about anything again.

You will get to meet new teachers that are really nice and kind. Teachers greatly impact your grades; it actually has been proven (by me) that you do better when you like your teacher (mostly). Although you love some teachers you might still do bad that’s a different issue. So all I can say now is good luck and hope I helped.

The teacher will give you homework and due dates. Some teachers will check, or make sure that you write your assignment in your agenda. There will be tests nearly every 2 weeks, and the teachers will always catch up on you if you forget anything, or if you are late. <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Candara','sans-serif';"> <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255); font-family: 'Courier New',Courier,monospace; font-size: 120%;">Okay, in 7th grade, you start off the year like normal. The teachers introduce you to the classroom and the grade, tell you what we are going to learn, and then you make a goal sheet for yourself. In 7th grade, you have a little higher expectations from your teachers. So my advice for you would be to get on the teachers good list at the beginning of the year. It is not that hard. All you have to do is try really hard in your work. But that doesn’t mean you can’t goof off once in a while. <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Candara','sans-serif';"> <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 120%; color: rgb(0, 255, 255);">If you don't speak English very well, don't be shy. You should talk to everybody in English and only a little in your first language. 7th grade teachers are nice and will help you if you ask them. Don't forget there are many new students and many who don't speak English really well. Don't worry! <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">

<span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';"> <span style="font-size: 120%; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; color: rgb(255, 0, 255);">Always be nice to your teachers because they want you to succeed and become a good student. Teachers seem to be tough on us but this is the way they have to be to get us to work hard, at least this is what they say. <span style="font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace; font-size: 120%; color: rgb(128, 0, 0);">The ** <span style="font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace; font-size: 120%; color: rgb(128, 0, 0);">teachers will treat you guys as more like adults than in 6th grade so don’t be like a little kid! Second, your tests will be harder and you have to explain in more details than 6th grade, otherwise, you will get worst score in your life. Again don’t act like kids in the 7th grade, if you do then teachers will think you're impolite and you will be a loner. Anyway, you will get mad at teachers because they give you a worse grade than 6th grade. Don't be mad at the teachers; it will be hard at first, but when you keep going and going then you will have better grade. <span style="font-size: 14pt; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';"> I hope that 7th Grade will be a great experience for you, as it was for me. 7th Grade was a lot of fun, with the right teachers. Some teachers can be pretty mean, but it’s only to help you learn what you are supposed to. You may start to get on Facebook or MSN every day after school instead of doing homework, thinking that you can do it later. I have done this, and trust me, it feels better to have finished your homework and then get on the internet, than to get to school and tell your Math/Science teacher that you don’t have your homework because you left it at home. Believe me; some of these teachers don’t give you a second chance. You should probably do your homework. <span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0); font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 120%;">
