Okay.. a couple days ago I started having a thing for this guy named Chris at my school. I told my friend Bethany about it.. she laughed and hoped it to only be a joke.. but it wasnt.. so she decided to be the match maker and ask him about me.. she ran up to me today before school and told me that he replied "I would go out with him, but Im to afraid to ask"... That made me sooo excited and totally made my day alot better!!!... so.. Im going to call Bethany today after school lets out (I was picked up early).. and Im going to tell her that I may ask him out.. I dont know yet though... because she is going to try to talk him into calling me... Anywho! My Psychiatrist.. Dr.Paul, wanted an essay from all my teachers.. my mom recieved all but from my Language Arts teacher.. I want to put them up.. cause it shows alot of a person I am... 1st period, Coach Mac- I have been requested by Anita Lightner to compare Matthew to other students in his classroom. Matt is very quiet and only speaks to a few students in the activities and very seldom will dress out properly. he will stay with one student the entire period and talk with her. He seldom removes his jacket which has a hood on it and he keeps the hood on his head the entire time in class. He never gives me an attitude and has been respectful to me. I have had him in class before and his activity and attitude have been the same in both classes. Compared to the other students in his class, matt is too quiet and not self motivated. At times, he seems to be "somewhere else" and he has no desire to be active or social with more than one student. I have encouraged him to dress out and even given a little if he is close to proper dress out. when I talk to him about grades or participation, I get very little response-he seems to not care- most students want to know what they can do to improve grades,ect. I do not get this from matt. He is also absent alot from class. If you need any more information, Please feel free to call me at ------- I hope this will help you in helping him. Coach Mac Ms Castelli- Algebra 1 Dear Anita Lightner, Matthew has not been a major behavior problem in my class. When he is in class, he is very respectful towards me and the other students. However, I believe his lack of focus and motivation have contributed to his poor success in algebra 1. Compared to the other students in his class, I have not observed any major diffrences between Matthew and his classmates. However, I do find him drawing constantly, Passing Notes, or just simply Tuning Out. When I do call on him, more often than not, he usually picks up on the concept rather quickly (which tells me he could be successful in my class if he applied himself more). He fails to do his homework, study for tests or quizzes, or seek extra help from me. My biggest challenge with Matthew is trying to keep him on task and motivated. Overall, though, as far as behavior and attitude, I have not observed any major diffrences. I find the same challenges in Matthew as I do in most of my students in his class. Thank you, Linda Castelli. (Im missing my third period teachers Note, Mrs. Bennett, Language Arts) Mr. Batey, Earth/Space Science Matt is a very polite young man. He is very Intelligent- He asks very good questions In class when he is Paying attention. He does not stay on task- talks with his peers. He does not seem to have organizational skills. Class preparation, book, homework, ect. Matt Needs to focus on the task at hand. he gets along well with his peers. He needs to set goals for long and short term so he can see what direction he is headed! Matt is very creative. I enjoy having Matt in my class. Mr. Batey Earth Science. Well.. go figure.. only one teacher talks about my hoodie!!!..anywho.. yeah.. I love to draw, I talk to seldom people. and I dont fight with the teachers.. Im a good student, I just feel, why do the work if I already know what I am doing eh?... nothing important to me.. anywho.. I have already failed this year... I guess I will pass next year for my mother.
