When taking this class, it's essential to realize the impact of the lessons and values taught. The core elements of ERWC are built to help set the foundation for yourself to become a better writer. ERWC with Ms. Atlansky is more than just going over the basic concepts of English because she also teaches you about the life that lies ahead of you This class may be challenging but it is not impossible, it is bearable. Those who complain about this class are the type of people who want to feel comfortable and do the bare minimum. Without the challenge, there is no growth. I assure you that if you get to know Ms. Atlansky and seek for her help, you will grow inevitably! - Punctuality is key. Late homework is rarely given full credit. Know your due dates, test dates, and quiz dates. - Don't try SparkNotes or read off summaries for the books you need to read. They will not help you at all. It may help you in the short run but not in the long run. - Take part in discussions and class participation. - Not that many tests - Material is always posted in Google Classroom! - Don't be intimidated, just communicate!
A. P. E is a great place, you get to be with your teammates the whole time. We use this period as a study hall to get homework done. During the offseason, this period is used as a place to lift weights and work out. This free hour that we get from APE helps us prepare our bodies for practice, games, and overall goes a long way in helping us. Overall this class is great and the atmosphere is even better.
The best piece of advice I can give to a student taking Ms. Berkowitz's Child/Human Development class is to do the work she assigns. Most of her class is work/reading-oriented rather than lectures. Thus, most of the material on quizzes is from classwork or homework. The work itself is quite easy but it is still crucial to do it. Also, be prepared to speak to the class by yourself. There is a lot of projects, group works, and presentations involved in this course that you'll have to present to the class. However, Ms. Berkowitz is very easygoing so if you do slip up, it's okay.
