Welcome to my blog. My name is James I am currently attending Camino Nuevo Highschool.I am determined to learn what i can as a student even thought sometimes things gets tough. Being a student is really hard if you dont put your effort into it but with hard work and determination it could get you to places you would never even think of. I am a student myself so i know how hard it is to do your homework by staying up all night even though sometimes I dont even get it but it doesnt mean u cant try your best to figure it out. Even though we cant figure something out, it doesnt mean we cant ask any of our teachers for help in the classroom while doing class work or so.
My topic is about the rhetoric of classrooms. This means the way how people talk in a classroom and how it is unique. In a classroom we cant simply say anything we want because we are there to learn and not to fool around. We want a classroom to be a learning environment for everyone so that we could learn easily. Teachers set some boundaries of how we should behave in a class so that we could make it a good learning environment. Teachers might sometimes talk to you in a different way when they are outside of the classroom but when it is school time you somtimes dont know what they are talking about.
We will learn all of these things in the process so that we would understand why we have to act or talk differently in a classroom than we do outside. Most likely in a classroom there are certain boundaries we should keep in mind and we will also be learning that in the process. Everything could go differently in a classroom depends how their rules are made and how the students obey in those rules. Being in a classroom could be tough but learning on the process wouldnt hurt.

Dear James,
I have read your welcome post and I had difficulties reading it. I understand that you may have lots of homework and getting everything done is sometimes a mission that not even James Bond can accomplish it. Nevertheless, I really liked your welcome post, but unfortunately was infilterated by errors. James, writing may not be your strenght, but together we can all grow as writer. James, next time try to put more time. I did liked your welcome post, but remember we are here to strive high not low, but high.
Your writing friend,

James,
your welcome post was alright. i had difficulty reading and understanding some parts but other parts of the post i was able to understand and understand why you wrote what you wrote in your blog.

I've noticed that too, that when your in a classroom with a teacher is different than when your outside the classroom with the same teacher.
There are times though, when how a teacher and the language spoken inside the classroom is sometimes similar to outside the classroom. Like in Del Real's and Seo's class, we goof around sometimes, but there is some underlying seriousness there. There are limits to how much we joke or talk. We do have purpose afterall, and it is our education on the line.
James I do agree with you that there are boundaries in how you should talk and act in a classroom. It is sometimes okay to be funny in the classroom, but only if its acceptable to the teacher. Teachers do act differently when they are inside and outside a classroom, but if you've noticed there are certain rules that stay inside and outside a classroom. We should follow them and why break them if will end up getting in trouble. I've noticed that in some of our classrooms we can goof around,but there is a certain limit. We need to larn and are teachers are there t help us and thats the good thing.
James,
I have to agree with you; being a student is not easy. This is why I believe that there are several rules in classes because if we had no rules don't you think everything would be even harder. We wouldn't be able to concentrate because there would be people who didn't care talking loudly or who kept walking around the class. Still, you're blog seems like an interesting one to stay updated on. Maybe you talk about how not only are teachers different when they are in or out of the class, but also how they are different depending on the subject they teach.

James,
Yes you are right teachers do have a limit on how you can goof around. but as well as like you said teachers act differently as well when they are not in class. Very good description of how to have a working enviorment works as well as the homework, like you said and also i should learn that even if the homework might be hard and complex still try to do it because teachers also see if you not only did your homework,or Homefun, but as well as if you try as well. A recomendation: try to not use alot of texting writing because it looks bad but as far as i am concerned the rest is great! Keep up the good work
James i totally agree what you are talking about in your post. Being outside in lunch is completely different than being in the classroom. In lunch we have time to chat gossip and run around. We can be ourselves and scream our lungs out, but while we are in a classroom i do believe their are certain ways we should behaves. We should not act the way we do when we are with our friends because we are their to learn. James this was a really strong point you have sent out as a message and i agree with you 100%
Dear James, (freakin stupid intro)
Rhetoric of classrooms is an interesting one. I got rhetorics of the U.S. I agree that there are certain boundaries to where you should behave in a class, but I hate a clasroom environment where it's just sit down and shut up. I want some noise and some music so I feel more comfortable. I feel like the language that the teacher uses in our classrooms is humor, most of the time. Our school has more urbanized teachers so that the students have a better relationship with them.
James!
Leo Jagetro said... “I really liked your welcome post, but unfortunately was infilterated by errors.” Either “infilterated” is not a real word or I got myself another vocabulary word to add to my list of 50! This why we must understand what lies under the Rhetoric of classrooms. I remember you telling me you weren’t sure what to write about; hey you’re doing a great job so far! I’m totally with you when you say that it’s hard to get all our work done. I’m experiencing it as I write; it has always been a great struggle for me to accomplish all that I want. It happens to many and we will only better ourselves as
we overcome these challenges.
Rhetoric of classrooms you say, well you spoke about our behaviors and what is being said in a classroom. I can see where you are going with this and I completely understand you. I think that what happens in a classroom is one of the most important aspects of our future. I think that it’s a marking point in our lives and that it can both benefit us and damage us. The result lies under us, we are the ones who make the final decision, and we choose to take advantage of a classroom or to let it be.
Just a few things you can take as suggestions would be, how do teachers affect the rhetoric of classrooms? How do students affect the rhetoric of classrooms? What is the ultimate purpose of a classroom, and how do we take advantage of one?

Dear James,
I think your topic would be very interesting because this is something we all could really relate to. I also agree on that we don’t come to school to be considered as fools, because in reality we are not the teachers were the students and were not trying to provide information to a group of 20 students or more, were actually the ones out of those e groups trying to figure out this new learning.
Sincerely,

James, that was some pretty good advice that you wrote in your intro and i believe it can be helpful to many people. There are some pretty good things written in your post like for example the fact about the boundaries that teachers have in a classroom. After reading, i am not sure i fyou decided to put a lot of effort into your topic. One thing i think you could have done better could have been adding more examples. There is also the part where you could have added more powerful details into the writng because i would seem to see that you didn't really put the effort you have into writing this post of your topic.
James, I, too, am eager to read the examples you examine in your blog. Call it narcissism.
All in all, a good start. Do proofread -- all of you. And, masses, invest in the shift key, please.
:)
