Breaking the Grade
Do you feel that being an honor roll student just isn't cutting it for you anymore? Are you tired of making the honor roll?. All your friends are busy in summer school while u sit home bored with nothing to do. Your fellow students make fun of you because your almost every single teachers' pet. Maybe you should try this program of breaking the grade. Think about it, you have so many other things that you could be doing instead of studying for that boring history class. So, with my previous personal experience, I will instruct you on how to successfully break your grade and fail your class. With three easy components of laziness, rudeness, and distractions, you'll be struggling to graduate in no time.
Laziness is one of the major keys to failing a class. Almost every student who has done so has had this characteristic. Try staying up a couple hours later than usual on a school night so that the snooze button is hit multiple times the next morning until you say " Forget it, I'm taking this day off.". Nowadays teachers count attendance as part of your grade, so this can add to your declining grade. Being lazy also includes missing assignments. If you are unorganized and keep up with your work , how will you be able to turn it in the next day in class since you cannot
find it? The answer is, you wont, and this will be a crucial step because homework assignments make up fairly large percentage of your grade. Put it in the wrong folders, or even in your textbooks that
aren't for that class. Another thing you can do is just go to sleep during class. Why not, you are tired aren't you? Catch up on those extra z's that you've been missing because of parties.
Little things like misspelled words and skipped questions will also add to points lost.
The next step in this process is rudeness. They may not show it right away, but teachers can not stand a rude student. The easiest to be rude is to talk in class, especially while the teacher is talking. As a matter of fact, while the teacher is talking, talk just loud enough to your neighbor so that you can be heard over the teacher's voice. This is almost guaranteed to get their attention because they feel as if they are being disrespected. Cell phones are another way to show that you are not interested in the class. Hit up a couple friends to see what's going to be happening on the weekend. Even accept incoming phone calls and have the conversation right then and there in class. Text your girlfriend or boyfriend to see where they're at. Let you favorite ringtone play loud for everyone to hear. This will surely get your teachers
