To the incoming 9th graders.

Starting this speech with a quote. “Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over.” F. Scott Fitzgerald.This quote is a reminder of how we don’t need to do anything and let the world revolve around us. But what is life if we let the world revolve around us ?
Don’t stress out. Pre-study your materials and be prepared to class. Don’t be shocked what is about to come at you. You are given a textbook a whole month before school starts. Use this time to preview. 9th grade isn’t tough. As like graduating from 5th grade to middle school it’s not a really a big deal. Like middle school, south high school is a feeder school.

You are fragile . You are capable of failing. It's too dangerous to go alone take this. (zelda reference) Sometimes you must fail to learn how to move forward. Sometimes, you have to laugh off all of the bad things that keep happening. If you let every little word bother you, it is only going to bring you down. You have to remember the people insulting you are doing it because of their own insecurities.
There is always an obstacle in your way. Nothing is free. In Pokemon snorlax block your way getting to you next destination. Until you got the pokeflute from Mr. Fuji you didn't go anywhere. Many of us faced challenges in our formative years and we struggled with them. Some of those struggles might have changed who we are or how we later approached life. Remember Thomas edison didn’t invent the lightbulb in one go.Struggling can be embarrassing. But being embarrassed can help us remember important things.

Hello, Dr. Satterlee! I've done everything correctly. Unfortunately, I was having computer issues due the server storm we suffered in our area and every time I tried to submit the Discussion Board Thread, it kept submitting the saved draft.

I am writing on behalf of the 8th Grade Class at Monticello Trails Middle School to persuade you to publish a book for Kansas. Kansas would like a book because 46 out of 50 states do not have a Goodnight Series book and Kansas is one of those 4 states that do not. I believe that Kansas deserves to be included in the Goodnight Series because many people believe that Kansas is a boring state but there are many things that other states do not have that are in Kansas. Kansas has so much to offer to the Goodnight Series because Kansas is home to some of the most iconic things. Kansas is the soccer capital of the United States where men and women play soccer on the Sporting KC team and some on the USA team.

I am writing on behalf of the 8th Grade Class at Monticello Trails Middle School to share with you why Kansas should have its own addition in the Goodnight Series. I understand that the book publishing process can take a great deal of time, but there are a plentiful amount of reasons for why it will be worthwhile in the end. Kansas is a unique state, with many fantastic attractions and features, so I’m certain you’ll see why once you hear what I have to say. Kansas has many appealing locations that would be great to feature in the book. It appears to be that there are four states in the United States that do not have their own book, with Kansas being one of them.

In order to succeed in any English class, a students needs to be a proficient reader, where they can both understand the story and find the literary devices the author uses. Usually when I read story, I can blatantly identify the author’s techniques to writing, and the overall purpose of the piece. However, this is not always the case, and I can admit that.

Seventy-two percent of teenagers say they rather just focus on passing school than worrying about playing a sport on top of everything else.
