School

School is going well. But I am kind of cranky at my one teacher. I turned in my homework, (and yes, I should have ran it through spell check but I didn't) and he dinged me some points for having a comma where it was not needed and also I misspelled no by spelling np (P and O are next to each other on the keys) A fellow class mate also got dinged on spelling so she made a copy of his handout to use and highlighted all his wrong spelling and wrote a note telling him that when he's perfect then he can expect perfection from her!

Some of his questions asked "What do you think/feel about this statement?" and then he would give a 9 (10 being perfect) but if it's what I think/feel then how can you score me less when it's my thinking/feeling? I'm going to ask him but today he was not in and we had a sub teacher.

Did I tell you that school is full of Cougar bait? Well it is!

That's all.

  2. Cougar bait is young men(bait) and older woman(Cougar) that prey on them. I am not doing that but school is full of young cute guys.

  3. Yeah, you might want to make more use of spell check. So how did teacher respond to student pointing out his errors? It kind of seems like you should be graded more on content than correct spelling, but it is important for message to get across that it be correct in both spelling and grammar, otherwise it's hard to read.

  4. eeeehhhh gads - you are a Taylor - am always asking her, when she has spell check available, how she can turn in something with misspelled words. Hope the teacher takes it well of the student pointing out his mistakes and doesn' come down hard on them. It always amazed me when Rye High would send out letters etc... with incorrect spelling/grammar. Is soap on it's way??
