https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae Post your response to the “Think about it” or “Check it out!” questions after you read over page 116. en-us 2017-11-08 18:19:11 UTC 2017-11-08 22:32:26 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205004435 I would assume the attitudes are more negative than positive. Attitudes vary as well in my area. I personally dislike school but my sister loves school. Hang out with people who enjoy school so they can learn what is common and what is not. Instead of saying just professor, include the teachers last name. Foreign exchange students could also wear there own clothes instead of a uniform.]]> 2017-11-08 19:06:15 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205004435 1631945 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205004771 Others schools in my area are both different and similar to my school. They are different because they don't have different academy but they still have the same classes as other schools. Schools in Spanish-speaking countries are similar and different to my school. They speak Spanish and we speak English but they are taught the same things as us. Some schools in my area are Monroe, Porter Ridge, Piedmont, and Weddington. These schools have most of the same classes but aren't academy based. Some schools are more formal. Some students do take classes that I don't take.]]> 2017-11-08 19:06:48 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205004771 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205005058 From what I read is that the attitude toward school is more like they are babysitting rather then learning the topic. A lot of people hate school but I sort of enjoy it because most of my classes are things I have chosen because I am interested in them. Some suggestions I would give a exchange student would be to call the teacher by there last name and typically in public high schools they do not have uniforms so they could wear what they want. Also they do not have to stand every time a teacher enters the room. I would also tell them that most of class time is learning rather then lecturing.]]> 2017-11-08 19:07:20 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205005058 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205005283 Schools in Spanish speaking countries seem to be more strict than schools in our country. For example, my school is very laid back compared to their schools. Suggestions I would give to a student form Mexico City to adjust to my school is to not be super uptight, just have respect for your teachers and the other students and don't cause trouble and you should be fine. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205005283 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205007370 Spanish schools probably take school more seriously than we do in our country. 

Compared to Spanish countries, the attitudes we have are more informal and interactive with our teachers.  

If a student transfers from Mexico City, I would tell them to only stand for the pledge of allegiance or when asked. In general, everyone is less formal, so they should get used to teachers calling them by their first name. They should address the teachers as Miss/Mister and then their last name. They should also prepare to have teachers lecture a lot less, as the classes are more interactive. They should also get used to there not being uniforms in most places.]]> 2017-11-08 19:11:29 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205007370 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205007656 Schools in my area are different to mine because they do do not have academy classes that are based on their whole high school career. They are different from Spanish speaking countries because we don´t have to wear uniforms (cata does not) also they are less independent for an example they can not discuss as much with others as they listen to the teacher lecture more.]]> 2017-11-08 19:11:54 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205007656 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205008649 Schools in my area are different in some ways  like  they start school earlier than us, and we have academy class based classes. Our schools do not have uniforms to wear each day we go to class instead we have a dress code where we can only wear clothes that go to the dress code.Sun valley for example is very similar to central academy comparing to the dress code but is different because sun valley starts around a hour before us.Yes there are some other students that take different classes than me. Very serious to school and wanting to learn the curriculum and information.You should talk to teachers and other students to know people and become friends with them.]]> 2017-11-08 19:13:36 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205008649 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205008718 Spanish students seem to take school a lot more seriously than kids in America.  The students in South America probably hate going to school because they just sit through class and get lectured the whole day, whereas the students here are somewhat excited to come to school because we use other, more interesting ways to teach.]]> 2017-11-08 19:13:43 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205008718 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205008826 the schools seem more formal and military like but at the same time layed back. normally here you call your teacher mr or mrs while in the schools of Spanish speaking countries they respond with less formal names such as a nickname. the more military like is the teachers calling student say last name and the students standing when a teacher comes in the room.]]> 2017-11-08 19:13:55 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205008826 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205009416 Other schools in my area are similar because a lot of high schools dont wear uniforms,But Cata is different because we are an academy based school.The schools around me are different than Spanish speaking schools because most of them do not wear uniforms or stand when their teachers arrive. They could be possibly similar because some teachers might call them by last names. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:14:44 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205009416 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205010071 Other schools in my area are different from my school because my school is somewhat focused on arts and/or interests. Other schools are similar though, because of classes and what is taught. Schools in my area are different than ones in spanish speaking countries because our teacher call us by our names, and we do not call them "teacher". We also have a lot of class discussion and partner work. Some school are more formal and require uniforms or have a very strict dress code. Schools do offer different classes but a lot of the core classes are the same.

Other schools don't have academy based classes like we do. Our schools are different from schools in Spanish-speaking countries, because they are less formal. Most schools in my area do not require school uniforms, and the students can form personal relationships with their teachers and their classmates. For example, at my school we have academy teachers who you spend most of your time with. You get to know the teacher, and the teacher gets to know you. Schools like Sun Valley have uniforms like in Spanish-speaking countries, but we do not. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:16:19 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205010286 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205010675 Other schools in my area are different from my school because we have academy based classes, which also makes them different from most school in spanish speaking countries. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:16:59 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205010675 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205010833 Spanish speaking countries are much more strict than the schools in my area. In my school, we are much more casual with the way we address each other and our teachers. Many schools in my area are not required to wear uniforms, while most are required to in Spanish speaking countries. If a student transferred from Mexico City to Cata, I would tell them that they do not need to wear uniforms; they don't need to stand when a teacher enters the room; they are allowed to class the teachers by their last name; we have many discussions during class; we have different academies at CATA and we are more based on technology and the arts than their old school. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:17:17 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205010833 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205011481 I think schools in Spanish Speaking countries are different from schools in my area because we have specific sections and divisions of our school.]]> 2017-11-08 19:18:34 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205011481 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205012109 Many other schools in my area are different because CATA is the only school in Union County that is based upon academy´s. Majority of all the high schools around me do not wear uniforms. In Spanish speaking countries it is normal for students to wear uniforms and stand when their teacher arrives but we do not do that here at schools. Schools that are more formal are private schools in our area. Everyone around the county takes about the same classes just our school has extra academy classes. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:19:51 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205012109 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205012611 Schools in my area different to my school because at my high school, our classes are divided by different academies that you take classes for and other schools have more classes per day and an A day or B day schedule. Our high school is different then a school in a Spanish speaking country because schools in Spanish speaking countries they have longer school days and more strict than our schools. These schools also require the students to wear uniforms. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:20:51 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205012611 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205012937 I think that in Spanish-speaking Countries they treat school with a lot more respect than we do. Teachers are most likely treated with the most upright respect and address them with more respect than we do. In our communities we sometimes forget that we are younger than the adult we are speaking too and speak to them any way we want, but in Spanish-Speaking countries they still treat them tons of respect. They also have more classes than we have.
1. I would inform them about why and when we stand for the pledge 
2. Explain the Bell schedule
3. help them adjust to having longer classes and only having 1 break 
4. Help them adjust to the dress code
5. I would help them understand why not to stand when the teacher comes in. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205012937 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205013135 The attitudes in Spanish-speaking countries are different from in the U.S. because if we had to look at their school systems and would think that its too formal compared to ours as well as more of our college format in middle school with more lectures and less talking than we have here. One thing they should change is their uniform policy so they could be able to express themselves as much as they want as long as they fit dress code. Second thing they should do is make the school system to more benefits the students more as well as letting them talk more than listening to a lecture.I also think they should change the teachers to be less formal with their students and not call them by their last name. The next thing they should do is make the students have less days of schools in places like Chile and Columbia. Then they should implement them to have less lectures in their classes.]]> 2017-11-08 19:22:06 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205013135 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205013243 I think schools in Spanish speaking countries are different because when teacher walk into a class room the students must stand up while the teacher calls them by their last name and students in Spanish speaking countries call their teachers maestro(a), profesor(a), and also profe. In the United States we can our teachers Mr. or Mrs. but we also say their last names.]]> 2017-11-08 19:22:19 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205013243 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205013618 My school is different then other schools because we have to go through a lottery to be admitted.

We do not stand when the teachers enter and we are called usually by first names. I feel that many students in America take school for granted because it doesn't cost us much. Compared to other schools in Union County, CATA has academies based on the career path we'd like to follow. We have more opportunities to get the career we want.]]> 2017-11-08 19:24:03 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205014252 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205016570 I think schools in spanish speaking countries have more classes but they get more breaks then us, but in the U.S. we have 4 classes but only about 1 or 2 breaks a day depending on the days. ]]> 2017-11-08 19:28:12 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205016570 https://padlet.com/amanda_mancilla/gsodyx76pmae/wish/205038094 In Spanish speaking countries many students wear uniforms, they stand up when there teacher walks into the classroom and in America the teachers call the students by their first name or even a nick name. The school i go to is different and similar to many other schools in the area, for we are a lottery and you have to apply to get in.
