This is my first week in person and I was so excited to meet everyone and see everything that I missed out in my virtual year. Here are some of the things that I experienced during my first week as a seventh grader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Passing Periods<br>I have 5 classes each day, most of them being on the second floor (our school has 3 floors), though some are on other floors. We have 5 minutes to get to each class and after that you&#8217;re tardy. It can sometimes be a big race to get to your next class before the tardy bell rings, though I have been on time for everything so far.<br><\/li><li>One Way Hallways\/Stairs<br>Because of COVID, our school has added one way hallways to the first and second floors. This can be a bit challenging, especially if your class is two doors down, but you have to walk all around the school in the crowd to get to it in only 5 minutes. Luckily, the crowd thins out as you walk around. We also have one way stairs, so you can only go up certain staircases and down certain staircases.<br><\/li><li>Homework<br>There&#8217;s a lot more homework than what I was expecting for the first week of school! A lot of it were only forms to sign, but I did have homework in my Science, English, and Social Studies class. Luckily, the homework is pretty easy, though it will most likely get harder as time passes.<br><\/li><li>Computers<br>We are given school computers to use for the tests and projects we do in certain classes. I got mine on Friday and have already used it in the second week quite a lot (for the beginning of year tests). It&#8217;s handy to have a second computer specifically for school work, where you can keep all of your assignments. <br><\/li><li>My Favorite Classes<br>My Favorite Classes so far are Theater and Science. I love theater because of all the fun activities we do and all the chances we get to learn what we like and how we do everything. Our teacher&#8217;s also very nice. I absolutely love our science teacher and the energy that she gives off. She makes learning much more fun and I&#8217;m really glad I&#8217;m in her class!<br><br>What&#8217;s your favorite part of school?<br>Also, due to school starting up, I will now only be publishing blogs on Wednesdays. <br><\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just started school!
