Education & Reference - 4 February 2007

Being a newcomer to this Yahoo answer game, but am an avid emailer & texter, does anyone nowadays know how to write proper English? "Your" instead of "You're" , "To" instead of "Too" , "Weather" instead of "Whether" are just 3 of basic grammatical no-brainer mistakes that I see far too often in these type of web pages, emails from friends etc. It's got to stop for the sake of all mankind as we know it!! There's even a spell checker that can be used, but no one can be bothered. I am not a teacher, or a writer. Just a baldyoldgit with a bee in his bonnet. Now why don't you all just f-f-f-f-fade away.......talkin' about my generation. The Who, 1960something, Isle of Wight, LSD & flower people. Now that's my bag man. Nurse, I think it's time for my labotomy.Pass me the screwdriver quick. TTFN playmates.

Jo is ten-year-old fourth grade student who is completing the fifth year of school, including kindergarten. In many ways Jo is a delightful student: bright, keenly perceptive of others adn their feelings, and has a very good speaking vocabulary. According to the fourth grade teacher, Jo is capable of performing above grade level. Social studies and science are special interests. Jo is currently reading at the end of the third grade. Jo has difficulty completing independently; much of the "seat work" is incomplete. Penmanship is nearly indecipherable. Spelling has improved dramatically this year with much work on Jo's part. The teacher is concerned that as the requirements for completing work independently increase, the amont of work Jo completes will decrease. Close monitoring and supervision are required to combat Jo's distractibility, daydreaming and failure to complete work. A review of Jo's cumulative file supports the accuracy of the teacher's perceptions regarding

- black humour
- a white night

Does anybody think this is too hard or too much history for one year? Along with these two, I would also take Honors English, Honors French IV, Honors Chemistry, 1/2 year of gym/drawing I, Honors PreCalculus, which is my sophomore year. I took AP World History as a freshman, along with Honors English, Honors French III, Honors Biology, 1/2 year of gym/health, and Honors Algebra II with very good grades in all.

I do like history, but does it sound like too much?

Thanks!
