How was the first day of year 11? (2 Viewers)

[angelarr]

Yesterday was the first official day of year 11 for us.
Timetable clashes, year meeting, talks, blahblah. But surprisingly, we only missed out on first period, so we still had 4 other periods.
Got a little bit of maths homework [which is quite alot compared to year 10, but not alot compared to other classes] did work in eng and chem.
I'm quite liking my teachers this year

Umm wlel im not really starting year 11 im actually about to start my HSC at TAFE on the 8th of feb. I just finished year 10 at school and im excited about meeting new friends and not having to wear a uniform. I got my timetable and i have tons of spare time! My longest day out of a 5 day week goes from 10 30 to 3 with a half hour break. Im only doing 3 subjects this year (different way of getting hsc) which are society and culture, standard english and modenr history!

I am excited but scared. Mainly due to the workload and whether or not i will make lots of friends!

quite a fun day...
"study period" first up, and from there it was a bit of a cruise-y day
only thing that dragged it down was that year 7s were there too.

First few days were okay.

I already have homework (as many others, I can see). We got a LOT of lectures of the first day and most of the teachers described our white shirts as "gold" and that we should "act more maturely now as the juniors look up to you seniors in white shirts" and all these metaphors about white shirts.

Modern was excellent. Just went over the syllabus. Homework: list all the countries of Asia, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. I had a free period after that but I couldn't really be bothered so I just hung around the senior area, doing nothing.

Advanced was also good but nowhere near as good as Extension. Basically told to bring a lecture book and a black pen every lesson. Homework: read Othello by the end of the next week. Great.

Extension was excellent. We just spent the lesson talking about BOOKS and literature and it was just the best thing ever. Although, a bit heavy in the workload. Homework: read "The Tale" by Joseph Conrad and do an essay on the story. Must include, audience, content, purpose, language techniques, who was Conrad, themes, ideas and a summary of the short story. Due: on Tuesday.

But I'm happy. There was a few stuff ups on my timetable but they are all fixed by now.

Loving year eleven

Year 11 was enjoyable, and the excitement still remains. Every lesson of math we get about 10 pages, which take me about 2-3 hours to do at home and during my frees, but I'm surprised I don't hate it. I actually enjoy it lol. Getting to do my own subjects are the best.

+1. However for maths i got 4 pages, and 10 excercises and i still enjoy it too

it was fantastic! LOOOVVEEEEE my subjects but have heaps of maths homework already

 

[harrisony]

Going to be good to see all my friends again and have subjects I want to do

Oh My God.

Extension essay = torture. And I LOVE English and I'm dreading doing this.

Advanced = Othello. Much lighter. Much better.

My teachers suck. Chem and Physics teachers only know junior science, Maths teacher is a tool and I have two English teachers...

Hi! I thought the first day of year 11 was fun! Except we did get a bit of work throughout the first week It was really fun being in new subjects though and having free periods!

 

[klaris]

Luckily, I have excellent teachers

 

[musing]

Second day of year 11 is so SO much better.

Free periods are awesome as well.
