My School Trip To The Liberty Science Center
My School Trip

In the 1990s, I went to Regent elementary school in the Bronx, N.Y and was a B student. I wasn’t an honor roll student, though I believe I could’ve been if I had put in the effort to do so. Like many elementary school students, I just wanted to go outside, and play Nintendo after finishing my homework. I was also one for leaving my weekend assignments to the last minute. I once did my weekend assignments during a school trip that Monday because I forgot to do it due to my excitement for the forthcoming trip to the Liberty Science Center.

Whilst on the bus school, heading to the Liberty Science Center, I was able to finish my homework . It was a two hour drive to our destination thus, I knew time was on my side. Then …show more content…
And because of our noise making, the bus driver- Mr. Francis started threatening to go back to the school. A girl named Roslyn told Mr. Francis that “you can go anywhere; look at all the cars”. When we realized that he was bluffing and we keep on being with our noise making. As a result to Mr. Francis failed attempt get order on the bus, our teacher Mrs. Gainer told us ( the children ), “if anyone of you made another sound I will be checking homework and whoever didn’t do it will stay on the bus”. Then It got quiet enough to hear heartbeats. Soon after, the traffic started to let up and we were our way to the Liberty Science Center. We weren’t free and clear yet. There was plenty of time left for the teacher to make good on her word and I for one, did not want to be left on the bus while the other children would be in the one of my favorite places. Not long after, a boy name Ronald started singing loud for some strange reason. That teacher thought he was calling her bluff much like Roslyn called the bus driver’s. Consequently Mrs. Gainer discovered that he did not do his homework and ultimately had to stay on the bus. As a result, the teacher decided to check if everybody else did not do there homework. At this point, I was not very nervous because I was in the back of the bus. Moreover, I only had five math problems to

He went down to the office to get a tour he thought he didn’t need because he remembered every single solitary thing about this place. While the tour was going on everything going on was a blur. He looked left, right and left again, admiring the changes the school had made. “Wow” he sighed. “Is there a problem Rufus?” the tour guide asked. Rufus answered, “When I was here the wall paint was all chipped, there were broken windows and holes in the walls.” “Oh ok, well that concludes our tour and this door on your right is your first period class.” The tour guide replied. Rufus walked in and sat at an available seat at the back of the class room. He opened his notebook and took notes even though he didn’t understand anything that was going on. By the time 5th period came around it was time for lunch he was starving. All of his friends called him over and asked him to sit with him.

    Interpretation to the Story of Lawrence Exeter

    About a minute later, I saw Johnny’s car around the corner. My eyes followed it until it was in front of me. “Let’s go, Angela.” I opened the car door, threw in the bag of clothes, and signaled Angela to get in. I followed, and closed the door. “Going back home.” Johnny nodded as he locked the car. While the car was in motion, Angela started to move and took out the blue shirt she picked earlier. She showed a proud smile while holding it in front of her. She started to chuckle and talk in a happy proud tune. “John, John! Don’t you think that this is cute?” He looked at the front car mirror and smiled. “Of course, madam.” I started to notice that the speed of the car is a little unusual. It seems faster than usual.…

    “Turn to page three hundred and eight in your excel books”, Said the teacher. What? Shouted the boys on the left. You promised us it was prac today? This is bullshit! A general giggle erupted across the classroom. I felt sorry for the teacher as she and I both knew she was in for an hour of torture. “We only have practical classes once a week, you know that” she said hesitantly. Yeah.. well - that’s shit isn’t it! Said one of the boys. The teacher was beginning to show her frustration but she didn’t reply. She knew they got their kicks out of making her angry so she remained silent. They had made her cry a couple of times this term already. I didn’t see why they liked teasing her; but I still didn’t tell them off.…

After she took attendance, she addressed that she had taken some privileges away from the students because the students did not picked up their mess after having centers and would not follow instructions that the teacher gave. She explained that centers might return for the upcoming school year if they behaved properly.

Mrs.Metcalfe went up to the front of the class to use the projector and expected her students to follow what she was doing on their worksheets.…
