We
took our concentration and it was our medication. With that
medication, we were able to learn things that we never knew. It
also helped us get from one grade to another. Today is the last
day and it's time to say good-bye to all the teachers and friends
we came to know. But this is how life is supposed to be, you're
supposed to go on in life and learn even more things to help you
achieve your goals.
Some
of us may be happy to leave and some of us aren't. We have so many
memories of Waverly. We have had fun days, gone to Shake n' Bake,
and most of all the annual school-wide trip to the zoo. This is
the one trip we have loved since pre-k. It’s hard to leave
behind the things we treasure the most, even people we grew to
love.
It was
easy for us to know everyone in school and now we're going to a
larger school with so many children. This year has finally ended.
We have worked so hard to do everything that's possible to advance
to middle school. We shall always treasure, love, care, and think
about the good things Waverly has done for us to pass on to middle
school. Teachers like Mr. Martin, Ms. Njenga, and Ms. Rock have
helped kids like me apply to the advanced academics or other
programs. Without them, we would not be able to graduate today.
We
thank all the teachers, Mr. McKenna and Ms. Terry for caring about
our futures. Without them, we would not be standing here. Thank
you.

I am
here to tell you that concentration is the medication to your
education. I witnessed this many times this year. An example is
when we had two really hard tests. The test were called the CTB
and the MSA. I concentrated on each of these tests and I was able
to get good grades. In fact, we all did well on these tests.
Another
way I witnessed this was when we had to make a 10-foot chain. This
was hard work. In the beginning, we were having troubles. But
after we settled down, we were able to concentrate. This helped my
group get focused and we were able to finish the task. We finished
in second place!
These
are some examples of how concentration is the medication to your
education. If you just take your time, then you can achieve any
goal. Therefore, always remember that concentration is the
medication to your education.

I
agree that concentration is important because it helps me to learn
just as medication helps me when I am sick. I believe
concentration is important because you need to concentrate to go
to higher levels. It also helps you to learn about different and
important things. Like how you should do a certain job, activity,
task, or any other kind of work. It teaches some people that they
should always concentrate because sometimes they just don't think.
And that is not right! Sometimes they just go on and say, "I
think this is right, I'm not even going to check it." That is
the wrong attitude. You should always concentrate because it helps
you to learn different things so you can pass a test. That is why
I think Concentration Is The Medication To Your Education.

This
theme means that concentration is the key to what getting a good
grade is all about. It also means that if you concentrate often
your education will be great. If you do not concentrate on your
work, your grades will get lower and lower.
Concentration
in class leads to good grades, which means that you will pass
tests
And go
to the next grade. This means you can achieve your goal. This will
lead to success in life and the career you want to choose.
If you
don't take the concentrating seriously, your grades will be low;
you could fail classes, not reach your goals or be successful.
That's
what this theme means to me. Without education, you wouldn't be
able to do anything.! Education is very, very important.
