If I Were To Take Away One Change....

          Can I take this away, maybe. Well maybe not! Today we had another chance to show that we want to be here, to show that we care, that’s why I’m doing this blog today. Today we had a choice to give our opinion on things and whether or not, remove one new rule/change that was inputted. We were allowed to choose any rule except the rule about lunch, that will still be there. I’m ok with it. This assignment is very difficult for me because I think that all of the other changes are good and I don’t actually need to complain about them, I could live by them. I get why these changes were put, these changes were put because he wants to help us, make it easier for us, and for us not to try and cause the problems that we had the last quarters. I don’t really know what too choose, its been like 30 minutes just now and I still cant think of anything.
Ok I think I finally got it, I think I would change #7 weekly grade checks even though I like this change because it could really help us keep up in class and to help us know what we have to do to get our grades up and things like that. Why I would rather get this change taken away then the others is because, this is on web grader anyway, this is just all the same, like a move this is just part 2, and plus isn’t it our responsibility to check web grader anyway? Right, this change kind of makes no sense at all because we already see it. Its also our responsibility to make sure we get good grades, that’s the part of the reason why we work during classes, because we know that we have a good grade for that class and we don’t need to bring it up because we’re all safe. We all know the consequences if we have a bad grade and do nothing to raise it up, you’ll get kicked our of leadership, I don’t think anyone wants to get kicked out of leadership, that’s why we don’t have so many people on probation because of there grades. This is our responsibility, one of the responsibilities the many responsibilities we have to be a good leadership student and we don’t need another reminder because we all know how to bring grades up. I do actually really like this rule but this is my opinion of this rule. If we were able to remove this rule then I think everything would be just as the same as they were the day before it was taken away or the day before yester day, or the day before that, it might even be the same as the day when there weren’t that much problems. A good example of this is if mr.ing tells us we have an F for his class, would you believe him? For me, OF COURSE! But we checked web grader, hmm we have an A, this is like the day when he said that AR was due last week Friday for weekly AR but we believed him without checking web grader. This is just like what people say can be different form what you actually see. We herd him and we believed him, we should have checked first. Mr.ing told us that this rule was meant to help us, yes I do believe that but like what I said we have other ways to check of how we’re doing in class, its just a reminder and something that we need to follow. If this change was taken out, it could always be better, we just need to try before we actually say that its not something that we should take out; you’ll never know unless you try.
Before I end this blog, I want to tell you what the time card was really meant for, like what I explained in my blog before, I thought it was just to keep track of what time this person is coming to school. Well I thought this and I was wrong, the real reason is for us to actually talk to mr.ing and get caught up with each other like wahts going on with our lives and his life, its like communication, its just for us to talk to him and say good morning. So far this really worked. I really like this change. Is there a way to bring this back? Well I don’t know, all I know is I really liked this one!
