    They expect too much of us. Its a hard class.
    Totally impossible! They are rigid and expect us to be workaholics!


  1. Do you feel that your teachers are fair in discipline? Was everyone treated the same?
    Horribly unfair. Some kids got great treatment and others not so much.
    They are a little unfair.
    They are perfectly fair.


  1. How well do your teachers control behavior in class? Was the class out of control and crazy, too orderly, about right?
    The class is a joke. It feels more like dodgeball in gym class...crazy!
    They really need to keep the class in line so I can learn.

    I feel the teachers are in control and it is the perfect learning environment.
    They are control freaks! Nobody can get off topic or have fun.

    I would never attempt to talk to them about a problem.

    It's a boring classroom and not fun at all
    It's just like any other class in the school
    I think the class is cheerful and fun
    I think the class atmosphere, both visually and in terms of cheerfulness, is very good.
    What an amazing class! I love the look and the feel of the class. I wish all classes felt like this!


  1. How fair are you being graded? Did the questions match what you learned in class and during homework? Were the questions on graded items too difficult?
    Impossible! The graded stuff is totally unfair
    I think it is just okay
    I think the fairness is just perfect
    I think the teachers are extremely fair and are prepping us for these graded items


  1. How are the opportunities in the class? Do you feel there are enough quizzes, tests, projects, classwork, labs, homework, etc. to evaluate your progress?

    There is a perfect amount of opportunities too evaluate me


  1. Do you feel that assignments, projects, quizzes, tests, labs, homework, etc. are being graded in a timely manner or do you constantly wonder about your standing in the class?
    Never get anything back and I have no idea how I'm doing

    We get back stuff very quickly
    They do extremely well in getting graded stuff back to me and I pretty much know where I stand in terms of grades


  1. Do you teachers prepare you for tests and quizzes? Is there enough of a review, time to study before quizzes? Do your teachers provide you study guides, online games, and the like to help you on quizzes and tests?
    They do not prepare me at all for quizzes and tests
    They need to prepare us a little more for quizzes and tests
    I feel the teachers adequately prepare us
    The teachers go above and beyond for the class to succeed on quizzes and tests


  1. Do your teachers update you enough on your progress/grades?
    Definitely not
    Kind of
    Good job of that
    Excellent! Get them all the time!


  1. Are your teachers available after school for extra help enough?
    Play audio
    They leave as soon as the kids leave
    They are only available once a week and that doesn't work for me
    They are there enough to help me
    They are always there!
