Day 28

Well, here we are the last blog of first semester. For some it will be the last blog of the year if you are not in my class again. I want to say I have enjoyed the semester and getting to know each of you as students and as people. If you are not in my class next semester but ever need help or just a place to call home my room is always open to you.

For tonight, please evaluate your semester in this class. What were your strengths and weaknesses and how do you use them to create goals for next semester? If you want to give any positive or constructive feedback for me please feel free as well. Believe it or not, I am not perfect and look to always work better with students.

This semester in your class was really fun. It helped that i had some good friends in there. I'm not going to be in your class next semester so I'm kinda bummed but I'm really happy that i don't have to do the blogs. My strength in this class was learning the vocab. I got a really study habit of it and i was able to get all the vocab words right. My weakness was learning the grammar. I haven't done really well on the grammar sides of the quiz so for next semester i'm going to try harder to learn it. Hopefully next marking period i can get an A in the class. I don't have any feedback for you, just keep making the class fun.

my semester was very educational and enjoyable! i have discovered some strengths and weaknesses this semester to. On of my greatest weaknesses is remembering that their is always a vocab test on Fridays. This intern caused me not to study and effecting my grades. another one of my weaknesses was bringing my book doing all the blogs, and getting to class on time. i also had strengths, one of my strengths was remembering the vocab evin without studying. another another was listening in class. but it wasint hard because your class never was boring. for some criticism i dont think you should give out detention every time i miss a blog and make my grampa have to come and get me! Maby if someone misses 2 you should give them out.

This semester was a lot of fun and I had a lot of laughs. Its pretty clear to say you are one of the best teachers in the school. My strengths in this class was probably vocab once I got the hang of it. My weakness was grammar not very good at it. For next semester I would like to work harder on the grammar so I understand it better. Some feedback would be to keep doing what you're doing cause you are a good teacher. next semester I hope to have better grammar skills.

This semester was very educational and lively. I mostly enjoyed the fact that most of the students got picked on. One my weaknesses are still writing papers. Another one of my weaknesses is the fact that I procrastinate when doing homework. One of my strengths is that I am a friendly person. I also don't use profanity. I believe that Mr. Kay shouldn't change anything.

This semester was a real card. I found class very amusing and very easy to stay awake in first thing in the morning. I found in terms of strengths that the blogs where one thing. Seeing as im almost always on the computer doing blogs was unavoidable for me unlike worksheets or bookwork. My main struggle was with studying and memorizing the vocab and grammar for quizes. I guess i was just to easily distracted!(XD)Memorizing things for quizes was just a big weakness for me. Keep thee class entertaining please! thats my main feed back, i hope i can get a better grade next semester for this class.

This semester didnt go so well for me. I didnt do very good in this class in any of the terms. My strengths in this class I think were that I was always on time to class and I tried my best to complete and do assignments correctly. My weaknesses were that I wasnt that good at some of the vocab and grammer. Also a weakness I had was remembering to do the blogs. I think you were a great teacher Mr. Kay. This was an entertaining class most of the time. I hope my class next semester is as entertaining as this class was at times. I am glad that the school year is almost half over now though.

man 1 semester almost done woot. i think that some of my strengths in class were doing these blogs. i feel that it has helped me in writing paragraphs and my sentences. i think some of my weakness in this class was reading when we had to. alot of the time i would just forget and read b4 school. overall even though you were a hard teacher mr. kay you were one that i learned from in the end.

I really enjoyed your class this semester. I may not have done so well but it was good. One of my strengths in yor class was probably vocab. One of the weaknesses was probably doing my work. My goal for next semester is to improve getting my work done. Next semester I want to focus more and do good. I don't know if I have you next semester but I hope I do. I like the way you teach and you make the class fun. I really undersand it and it is easy for me.

I thought this class was extremely fun. One of my strengths was the vocab because i could always work with others to memorize them. One of my weaknesses would be grammar. I think this is one of everyone's weaknesses. My goal for next semester would be to get an A. Keep doing what your doing mr. kay, its working. Some feedback? Keep making fun of Marissa. It keeps some of us up in the morning. :) and sorry this is late. i kinda forgot.
