7. I will be participating in cheerleading.

2. I like the people in the class mostly, I think this class has a good atmosphere in it and I like the grading system we have is very helpful and a success.

8. I haven’t heard of either of these books actually, but I think they both sound interesting.
9. I haven’t ever really written poetry except for school assignments, and I think that poetry is whatever a person wants it to be, it just comes from your heart and is personal.
10. I think that this class is really fun and has good intentions. There are just people who like to make it fun, which is always good.
11. I don’t like being assigned a book to read. I think if we need to read a book, then we should each pick our own and have to fill out questions about it so it is proved that we actually read it. I think that if we got to choose, so many more people would actually read it.
12. Maybe just to learn about you and your life.
13. Just myself. I really can’t focus unless I am wanting to do it. May sound selfish but that’s the way I work.
14. About your family, what you like to do, things like that in general. It’s always nice when teachers tell you everything about themselves and bring in pictures and stuff. It’s interesting.
15. I think I’m writing my own book/movie :)
Mr. Ruggles
1)I have lived in Colorado for 5 years. I was born in California so I’m not used to the weather here. What I like most about Colorado is the mountains especially when there is snow it’s such a nice view!
2)There are a lot of things that I like about English 9 such as the group projects and I love using the lab tops.
3)The most effective way that I learn is to review almost every day because it will refresh my mind and I will remember more.
4)We were in groups and we did a project based on a book. This helped me because I learn more from other students in the class since. They always have ideas and suggestions.
5)I like to study history because I’m really good in that class.
6)I play the trumpet and I’m passionate for music because I can express myself with music and not words. I love listening to music to. It is like my medicine whenever I feel bad.
7)I don’t think I will be participating in anything. I might just be more involved with band.
8)I don’t really know anything about these books but I’m excited to read them all!
9)I think poetry is a piece of writing that has a lot of deep meaning behind it. I actually love writing poetry it is a good way to write creatively.
10)We use lab tops in our class and we read together as a class.
11)I would change the books. I would make the class vote on a book they would rather read.
12)I want to accomplish my reading. I want to read out loud more.
13)Friends motivate me a lot because they are always there supporting me.
14)I know that you’re going to be our student teacher second semester.
15)I think I’m like Paul because he is very calm and in the book it doesn’t seem like he gets mad.
Hello Mr. Ruggles. Can I call ya Ruggs? I'm Chase.I sit next to Nate. 1.) I think my favorite thing about Colorado is the weather in the state. One day it could be snowing and then, by the end of the day, all the snow could have melted. In the summer it still feels like summer and in the winter it feels like winter. The only thing is that sometimes, you can expect snow in the middle of April.
2.) What I like about English 9 is how sophisticated it is. I like how our class can still mess around though. We can be serious and then joke around the next minute. And we still get everything done on time. I also like how we have been brought into the 21st century with the laptops and everything.
3.) I think the way I learn best is to have fun while doing it. I'm pretty much all about having fun and it works better for me when I have fun while learning. For example, I learn well in this class because we can still joke around a little bit while learning.
4.) In the classroom, what has been meaningful to me has been having in depth conversations about topics on peoples Personal Learning Networks. Many good subjects have come up from the PLN's because many people choose great topics to talk about in their PLN's.
5.) Outside of the classroom, I have made great friends in this class and have gotten to spend some time with them outside the class. That has been great for me. 6.) I am passionate about my friends and family. Friends are some of the most important things to me. My friends are like my second family and my family is very close to me as well. I love music and play guitar some. So I am also passionate about music.
7.) I plan on joining the Arapahoe Track Team and maybe doing some drama stuff. Maybe a couple music things too.
8.) I have never heard of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night. I have heard about Lord of the Flies. Apparently it's about kids an an island and it's kind of freaky or something.
9.) I have written poetry before in English class in Eighth grade and fifth grade. I would describe it as a way for some people to express themselves through words and rhymes.
10.) Our class likes to be treated like we are mature most of the time. But some times, we just want to mess around.
11.)I don't really know. I wouldn't really change anything about the class. Especially not the seating arrangement. Maybe reading books that we know or everyone finds interesting.
12.) One thing I want to accomplish is getting used to the system we will be using again and get back into all the stuff we do at school.
13.) I am motivated by how well I want to do in the world. Ms. Smith always tells us that we are more than just an English class and that our goal for this class is to change the world. I think that is part of what motivates me in English class.
14.) I'd like to know what your age is. For some reason, I learn better from younger teachers.
15.) I can't really say that I am like one movie character or book character, but if I had to choose one, I would say I am like Chris McCandless in his last couple days when he realized that what truly mattered to him was his friends and family. I haven't realized that lately, but I've known it for a while.
1.I love Colorado and the thing I love most is that most of my family lives here, and the mountains here. I love the mountains because you can see them from wherever you are and they are beautiful.
2.What I like about English 9 is that the work isn’t quite easy and not too hard, the work is at just the right level.
3.I am a visual, and hands on learner so if I can do things myself I can understand it better and quicker. Also, if I have something right in front of me, I learn faster. If I am just don’t told it isn’t as easy.
4.The group activities we do are meaningful because I can expand my learning more by hearing what other people have to say, and their ideas plus my ideas can always make for a good project.
6.I am passionate about photography, and dirt biking. I just love taking pictures of everything and printing them so I can make a huge collage on my wall. I am also passionate about dirt biking and go whenever I have a chance. I haven’t entered a race yet but really want to sometime in the near future.
7. I probably won’t be doing much of anything because none of that stuff interests me too much.
8.I know nothing about either of those books.
9.I define poetry as a form of writing that rhymes or can be in different formats that express someone’s feelings about something. I have written my own poetry but only for a class, not just on my own.
10.You should know that sometimes this class can be a little crazy, but we can also listen to directions and be respectful.
11.I would let the class read books that interest them, something they actually want to read because I know when I read a book that I am not interested in, I just read and don’t remember or care about the book.
12.I want to accomplish reading faster on the first day of the new semester.
13.I am motivated by the thought of going to college so I can become a veterinarian so I need to get good grades.
14. One thing I want to know about you is how did you know you wanted to do this student teacher thing?
Mr.Ruggles,
1.Colorado is great the thing I like most about it is the weather. I love the weather hear because you never know for sure what it is going to be like. Also because we never have a winter without snow.
2.English 9 is so much fun, no matter what we are doing in the class it is always so much fun. We always have good topics to write about and good books to read.
3.I learn best when I do things such as write read and do hands on things.
4.I think the things in this class that are meaningful to me are having so many friends in the class and the class always being so much fun.
5.Having a lot of friends, off hours and, teacher help and support have been the most meaningful things to me outside this class.
6.I love to write and I love music. Hanging out with my friends is one of my favorite things to do.
7.The things I will be doing most will be sports and hanging out with my friends.
8.I don’t know anything about these books, but they sound like good ones.
9.Poetry is a type of writing that is peaceful and mellow. I have written my own poetry many times.
10.This class is awesome and is always a lot of fun.
11.I would not change anything about this class, it is always tons of fun and I like the way it is.
12.I want to make sure my writing is still good after a long break.
13.I am motivated by myself and my friends and teachers; they are really helpful when you could use a hand.
14.Where did you go to school?
15.Paul from All Quiet on the Western Front because he was trying to figure out what he was going to do with his life and so am I.
Caleb Wilmore
Hello Mr. Ruggles my name is Mitchel Lincoln.
1. I have many favorite things about Colorado. To start off the mountains in the winter, but during the summer is the dirt bike tracks.
2. One thing I enjoy about English nine is that we are able to use the laptops every day so we don’t have to spend extra hours that are not needed typing or researching what is not needed.
3. The way I learn best is by hearing and then doing.
4. The types of activities that have been really meaningful to me are the small projects about the characters that we read in our books.
5. The types of activities that are meaningful to me outside of the class room are the sports I take part in and the help I can come in and get on my off hours.
6. I am passionate about my family friends and making something out of my life, change the world.
7. The sorts of things I will be taking part of second semester will be my academics, baseball, working, snowboarding and dirt biking when it gets warmer.
8. To speak my mind I have truthfully never heard of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night and the Lord of The Flies was alright but not the best book in the world.
9. Poetry is the art of expressing one’s mind through short rhythmical stories, and yes I have written poetry before and I prefer that over what matters.
10. We like to clap when people walk into the class room it’s our own special thing and have fun with the class.
11. If I were teaching thee class one thing I would change is not doing the PLN’s they don’t have much to do with our learning except inform us about what is happening in the world and I really can’t express my best writing through these pieces of writing.
12. One thing I plan to accomplish on the first day of the second semester is setting a goal to succeed in getting a 4.0
13. One thing that really motivates me is to take pride in my work and do a fantastic job.
14. What is your favorite football team and do you like the Vikings.
15. The movie that describes me and my life right now is the movie Invincible because the odds are against me because I had just moved I didn’t know anybody no one knew me I had to prove myself in my athletics and show the coaches what I can do, also in my academics because I had come from a school that ever thing came easy to me and I had a little struggle here so I had to reset my standards for how I will do in this new area.
1: Definantly the snow, the mountains and the skiing and snowbarding is great here.
2: That in our class we get to use laptops and it makes the class a lot more fun and interesting. With our laptops we can do a lot more things that classes without laptops can’t do like this.

1. Colorado is a beautiful place to live, and there are great parts about it. My favorite thing about Colorado is definitely the mountains. I really love to ski in the winter, and camp and hike in the summer. The mountains are the most beautiful place to be any time of the year. In this part of Colorado, we have an amazing view, and when the sun reflects off the mountain tops each morning and sunset, it is a spectacular sight to see.
2. In English 9, I really like how we do project quizzes. After every couple chapters in the books we read, we take a quiz but it is usually it is something creative like making a collage about what matters to the character of our choice, or how the effects of war on young soldiers is shown. This forces us to think on higher level thinking questions and apply them in a way that relates to the book, but also to us. I prefer these rather then quizzes with questions regarding what happened in the book because then we can’t go further into the story than what is written in the text. I also like how we have bonded as a class, and how we are able to work with each other.
3. I learn best with hands-on projects and visualizing things. I tend to get things, and they stick in my head better when I can do things for myself, or when I can see how things work or are put together. This is the reason that I like project quizzes better than normal quizzes. If I can physically put something together by myself, and take it apart and to it again, I understand the concept better and I can apply it better.
4. Our big question this semester has been “What matters?” We applied this first to ourselves by creating a blog and writing what is important in our lives. Then we made a collage online with pictures showing what mattered to us. Then we applied the question to all the texts that we read. This has been the most meaningful to me because it has made me think about what other people feel, whether in real life or in fiction. It has made me think about what’s going through peoples head when I read books. I have developed the skill of comprehending reading and thinking it through better in this class than ever before. This skill will stay with me forever and it’s the one that means that means the most to me.
5. Volleyball is very meaningful to me. It is a sport that I play almost year round and that I am passionate about. I also am involved in Student Council at Arapahoe. In the summer I play softball, and in the spring I run track.
6. I am most passionate about, my faith, volleyball and my academics. These things really matter to me, as well as spending time with my family and friends.
7. In the second semester I will be playing volleyball for Colorado Intensity, participating in Student Council and running track for Arapahoe.
8. I honestly don’t know anything about those books. I think that it will be very interesting to read them.
9. I define poetry as deep literature that means something. It goes much deeper than the context, and you have to dig into it and understand it. I have never written my own poetry, but I would be willing to try.
10. I think that you should know that our class is a great class to be in, and we always have fun doing things like working in group projects and discussions in class,
11. If I were teaching the class, one thing that I would change is the way we have PLN presentations. I would change having up to 4 go in one day to one or two, allowing the class to debate about matters in the world, and how we should go about them.
12. On the first day of the second semester, I wish to accomplish the concept of the second semester, and what is going to be the ultimate thinking question for the end of the semester.
13. I think that I am most motivated by my dreams and goals. I often set high standards for myself and do what I can to reach them, and that motivates me to do higher and better than the requirements.
14. One thing that I would like to know is
15. I think that I am most like the pauper in The Prince and the Pauper because I work for what I have but I have success. I have a lot of friends and get along quite well in life but I recognize the fact that I have to work for everything I have to find success, I do not jus have it handed to me. I have never switched places with a Prince, but I think my personality matches that of the pauper.
