Graduation Speech Composition 1

In July, which is full of farewell, we said lightly: "Huh, we finally graduated!"

If in Add a final modification before graduation, and if you add an exclamation emphasis after graduation, the sentence will not be as simple as you imagined.

Do you still remember that in the summer vacation of 2005, I wrote angrily with deliberate resentment, "This is the summer vacation, why should the school make up classes in violation of regulations?"; I wiped away the tears again and said lightly Gently gritting his teeth, he cursed, "I didn't speak in class, why should you lecture me?" What I hate is school and what I hate is teachers.

Do you still remember that in the first semester of the third year of junior high school, notes were frequently posted during lunch break.

——There’s so much homework, it’s killing me!

——The teacher had nothing to do after eating all day long, so he burped and ran to the printing room to print papers!

——It turns out that the oil stain on this paper was caused by the mother-in-law?

The speculations became more and more outrageous, and even the aunt in her early thirties was cursed into a mother-in-law in her mid-sixties.

——We obviously know that ∠BDC=90°, but we still need to take great pains to prove it! It’s obviously harmful!

——The math teacher thought there were too many blank spaces, so he asked for confirmation if he had nothing to do!

——Hey, is this concentrated sulfuric acid volatile?

——That’s right, why are you so good at chemistry? The most volatile thing is concentrated hydrochloric acid!

——Ouch, I’m so confused!

——Fuck you, stop coming!

Discussing issues about the subject in a nonsensical way. While talking about what role trigonometric functions will play in the workplace in the future, we also talked about the benefits of knowing clearly that the author of "Historical Records" is Sima Qian and the author of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" is Sima Guang.

Do you still remember that in the second semester of the third year of junior high school, the students were busy studying without seeing the sun. You also did a little experiment with me. When you walk into the classroom, you can't see everyone's hair unless you step onto the podium. Why? The pile of books is so high that they are all blocking the way. So at a glance, you will say "Wow, that is spectacular". Yes, I was all suspicious. Did the students dye their hair? Why don't you see that the stuff on the desk is not black, but just grey?

At that time, I hated the teacher. Even though the female teacher put on some rouge to cover up the inevitable dark yellow on her face, she still insisted that she was a yellow-faced woman, which was ugly, and she also had to put on make-up to look better. How disgusting! After the swearing-in ceremony, the teacher came to the classroom more frequently. The test papers were handed out one by one, and we cursed sentence by sentence. The most common thing they say is: "Your grades are so bad! Why are you so unconscious in your studies?" We will always be angry and mutter below: "If you think we are not good, then don't teach here! I wish you could be faster." "Let's go!"

Do you remember that on the day of the high school entrance examination, someone had a stomachache and couldn't take the exam, and the teacher shed tears anxiously. The weather at the end of June was hot and stuffy, so the teacher bought us drinks to quench our thirst. In the evening after the exam on the first day, the teacher told everyone: "Children, you are the best. I believe you will do well in the exam! I always criticized you before to encourage you to study hard!"

Until that special moment, we didn’t know how hard it is to be a teacher! This kind of exclamation is probably a sentence that all first-grade elementary school students have memorized. They often use the metaphor of a teacher as a gardener in their compositions. And I want to express my gratitude to the teacher from the bottom of my heart and repent of the stupid things I have done and the stupid things I have said. I don’t even know where to start. Some people may ask, in this case, you still want to say the sentence at the beginning and finally graduated?

Yes, we have to say it. We finally left the junior high school station and are about to face new challenges.

We must grow up quickly and repay our teachers well in the future! Whether it is a bouquet of flowers or a heartfelt message, it is the reward that the teacher hopes to receive!

Have you heard that, the thousands of students in schools who are ignorant? Graduation Speech Composition Part 2

I didn’t expect that I would leave some words on your graduation CD today - there are always more "unexpected" parts of life than "thought of". Because we are not gods, We are all just ordinary people.

As an ordinary person, even if he is your mentor and is older than your parents, his ability to "predict" things before you is actually very limited; What's more, after two to three years of nagging day and night and bombing day and night, what I have to say to you is either a cliché or has long been invalidated. So why should I repeat it before leaving?

I want to tell you to "cherish your fate."

This sentence should have been said three years ago. But without these two or three years of getting along, where would this sentence begin? Our class 43 Of the classmates, 6 of them have been taught by me for two years, 1 has been taught for two and a half years, and most of them have been taught for three years. There are 36 of them. In my thirty-year teaching career, you are The group with the deepest "fate" with me. Because the "fate" is deep, I want to tell you to "cherish the fate". People, things and things in life are not accidental. Why should you meet him instead of him? If we meet, we are destined. Even if it is just a casual encounter or passing by, it is worth cherishing; not to mention family members who want to get along with each other for a long time, or friends who work hard together, we should meet them from the beginning. Cherish, and continue to cherish, cherish until the end: just as I have done to you in the past three years.

I want to tell you to "live in the moment."

This paragraph I said it a few days ago, and saying it again shows its importance. Life is an unknown journey, and no one knows where it will end when it begins. Therefore, instead of regretting the past and worrying about the future, it is better to "Live in the present" in a down-to-earth manner. Because every effort you make now is proof of your efforts to live; and these efforts also have their deserved harvest. If this harvest is not given here, it will definitely be Where it comes from; if you don't get it today, you will definitely get it tomorrow. This is the law of heaven.

Yanzi said: "A gentleman gives others words." Jiao Jiao said: "I have heard that a gentleman gives words to others, and a common man gives money to others. If I am poor and have no money, I ask for leave from the gentleman and give my son words.")

Laozi also said: " "A benevolent person gives others gifts as gifts." ("Historical Records. Confucius' Family": I have heard that rich and noble people give people gifts as gifts, and benevolent people give people gifts as gifts. I cannot be rich and noble and steal the name of a benevolent person and give children as gifts.) Today, I will act as a gentleman and give you these two sentences carefully. I wish you a smooth life.

Some people say that life is like a grand banquet that always comes to an end. time. I think the school years are like a lively banquet. When we went to the banquet together a few years ago, we had already thought about this day, but what we didn't expect was that it would end so quickly. While I was still thinking about it, someone had already walked past me in a hurry and walked out of the campus. I would no longer be able to scold Fang Qiu like before.

In this sunny and hot season, we are leaving for a better banquet and more excitement.

A few years ago, I was walking happily on this ancient campus, looking forward to it. After graduation, I will leave sadly, because I really can't bear to leave.

Now that you have graduated, do you still have a lot to say, do you still have a lot of wishes that have not been realized, and do you still want to say something to your classmates and teachers who have experienced these years together?

Love, friendship, and the campus of nostalgia!!

Is the departure of the leaves because of the pursuit of the wind or the unwillingness of the tree to stay?

Looking back at the past.

Everything we have walked together is imprinted in each other’s hearts.

We understand the probability of one person meeting another person.

We are grateful for all the joys and sorrows we have had! Cherish my friends! Cherish your friends!

Meeting is fate, a memory that will last a lifetime! Graduation Message Composition Part 3

Since I first entered elementary school, I have known that one day I would graduate. I always thought that graduation was a very exciting and joyful thing. Only today did I know what it is really like.

At 8:30 in the morning, the students have all arrived early. We haven’t seen each other for two days after the exam. We all talked and laughed and had so many intimate conversations. The graduation ceremony of our Class 61 is here with us. It started amidst the laughter.

When the host announced that Teacher Kong would speak for us, Teacher Kong walked up to the podium and said: "Today, I am very happy to see the lovely children here again. I still remember six years ago... "As soon as he said this, Teacher Kong started to choke, and many students also shed tears with Teacher Kong. Teacher Kong told us that no matter where we go in the future, we should never forget the trees and plants of our alma mater, and never forget the teachers who get along with us day and night. With my classmates, at this moment, the teacher's face was filled with tears. I could only feel my tears running in my eyes. We became extremely sad. The originally lively classroom had now become extremely sad.

Next, Teacher Kong will issue graduation certificates to us, and parents will also have to say a blessing to their children face to face.

Many parents shed tears when they spoke. My mother said to me: "Thank you to the teachers for their hard work and dedication over the past six years. I hope Guo Yixin will be steady, confident and happy in her future growth!" I suddenly felt very sad. Now that I have graduated and will be a junior high school student, I really have to say goodbye to my teachers and classmates at my alma mater. The feeling is beyond words.

In order to express his gratitude to his alma mater and teachers, Guo Jingwei, on behalf of us, read the prose poem "Thanks to Alma Mater" he created in a passionate voice. Alma mater, I love you, no matter where I go in the future. No matter where I am, I will never forget you! You will always be the deepest memory in my heart! Now, although I am about to leave you, I will come to see you from time to time. Every plant and tree here is the most beautiful scenery in the world and will be engraved in my mind forever...

What impressed me the most was the whole class singing "Childhood" together. I remember that when the music class teacher taught us to sing this song for the first time, everyone’s faces were filled with happiness, joy, and even a little naughty. But today, when we sang it again at the graduation ceremony, the students looked like that Feeling sad and heavy, squad leader Ding Yixiao wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands from time to time. Some of the students lowered their heads and some were sobbing, but our singing was still loud and beautiful. It was our attachment to our childhood and our alma mater. The reluctance to leave is our eternal concern for Class 61...

When we recited together under the leadership of Teacher Kong and Liu Yuyuan, we seemed to have returned to the classroom we once had. We were so happy, Such excitement...

I never knew that time flies so fast, and the graduation ceremony is over. Teacher Kong said to us gently with red eyes: "Okay, kids, let's go downstairs to play." However, no one moved, and they looked at Teacher Kong reluctantly, because maybe this is our Class 61 class. It was the last time we sat upright in the classroom and listened to Teacher Kong’s speech. Everyone could only express their reluctance to leave the teacher and classmates in this way. Even though Teacher Kong shouted several times, not a single student stood up from his seat. rise. Teacher Kong reminded everyone that they could take photos in the classroom or on campus, or play with their favorite classmates. At this time, the students walked up to the podium one by one, hugged and took photos with Teacher Kong, and many students cried sadly.

The unforgettable graduation ceremony is over, and we are about to become a middle school student. This is the most unforgettable class for me. Let us go on the road with the expectations of our alma mater teachers and classmates, and the blessings of our parents, to welcome a new beginning in life.

Alma mater, I love you! Teacher, I love you! Classmates, I love you! Graduation Speech Composition Part 5

I was appointed as the head teacher of Class 10 (18), and then led 53 "repeat customers" to take the college entrance examination again, which was very commanded and envied by others. It seems that I have become everyone's hope in life. At first, looking at everyone's expectant eyes, I was really a little scared, although time has proved that my piece of ginger is no longer tender. However, I soon calmed down. Because I don’t need to worry too much about everyone’s performance.

The next thing to do is to come to school every day to witness your travels in the sea of ??books, to witness your swords raised to the sky, and to witness your hard work. During these two hundred days, we tasted the ups and downs together and shared the joys, sorrows and joys together. Among them, your education laid a solid foundation for me to educate my son Maomao in the future. In other words, I also used some of my son’s education with you. I really hope that I can become your mentor, but I know that my talents are limited and my knowledge is shallow. Thank you very much for your trust, understanding and support of my sister all the way.

In more than 200 days, I emphasized health, happiness, truth, goodness and beauty, not just the score on the test paper. Of course, you must also know that in China's current education system, you have to work hard for grades - sin, I have indeed been constantly stressing that you must work hard for it. In your senior year of high school, you have to work several times harder than others. Graduation Speech Composition Part 6

Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by, and in the blink of an eye, we have graduated.

I stood at the school gate, looking at the bright and dazzling graduation certificate in my hand. I was suddenly confused. Should I leave, or should I look back at the elementary school that had been with me for six years? I stood there at a loss, looking at As the juniors and junior girls threw themselves happily into the arms of their parents, the crowd gradually thinned out, and I was confused... I hurriedly ran to my dad's car, not wanting to stay here anymore. It used to make me change my moods and moods The place... The car slowly started to move, and my heart felt like a five-flavor bottle had been knocked over. It was really a bad feeling. I was sitting in the car, as if a movie was playing in my mind, and the memories of the past were flowing rapidly. Looking back, we had to wave goodbye to this alma mater that carries so many memories for us. Even if we are reluctant to leave, we must be full of heart. Confidently open a new page in our lives for ourselves and welcome the upcoming junior high school life.

Thinking of the beautiful campus, the sound of reading still lingers in my ears; thinking of the wide and flat playground, our laughter is still rippling there; thinking of the clear and sweet ringtone, it It still reminds us to cherish time... All of this seems to be vivid and fresh in our memories, and we will never forget it.

Dear classmates, now we have said good bye to each other (I guess I am right~~). Thinking of the past days, we have cried and laughed together, just because we have been with you for six years. The study life seems colorful. Although we have grown up separately, I firmly believe that our friendship will always remain unchanged; I firmly believe that the flower of our friendship will always bloom in each other's hearts.

Graduation is the prelude to a new page in our lives; graduation is the end before we go our separate ways or even become far apart; graduation is the starting line where everything will start again; graduation is... …

Dear teacher, thank you! It is you, like an angel, who teaches us kindly; it is you, like the ocean, who tolerates our faults in your broad mind; it is you. , like a big tree, shelters us from the wind and rain... The years have dyed your green hair into white hair; the years have made your hands no longer so smooth and smooth; the years... the years have changed you There are too many, but no matter what, you are our most attached teacher!

Six years of friendship and teacher's care have gathered into our heavy fruits. The successful landing of Shenjiu seemed to congratulate us on our graduation. Nowadays, a perfect full stop is being drawn quietly, as if to tell us that the door of junior high school is waving to us...

Laughter, loud books, crisp ringtones, colorful life... this Everything seems to be very close to us, as if it was yesterday; all of this seems to be far away from us, in the upcoming junior high school life. Six years of ups and downs, six years of morning and evening, passed by inadvertently. Every smile, every tear, every exam, and every story in these six years is always unforgettable for me. It will always be the most precious memory in my life.

Once, we worked hard together in the examination room; once, we ran together on the playground; once, we worked hard together in the classroom; once... Every bit of this, this experience, I think I will never forget it Yes.

Looking back at the past and looking into the future, I hope everyone can get into their ideal middle school. "There are close friends in the sea, and we are neighbors as far as the end of the world." As this poem says, no matter how long it takes, I believe that our friendship will not be diluted by time.

Goodbye, elementary school! Junior high school, here I come! ! Graduation Message Composition Part 7

I am about to graduate from middle school, and I feel really reluctant to think back on the good times in the past. After all, we are parting from old classmates who have lived together for three years. Thinking of us crying together, laughing together, studying together, and experiencing the ups and downs together for three years, tears of reluctance can't help moistening my eyes.

Three years have passed like water, and the moment of separation is coming. There was a sad atmosphere in the classroom, and everyone expressed their reluctance in silence.

In the past three years, we have faced this blackboard, listened to the teacher’s lectures, and felt the warmth brought by the warm classroom. This used to be a place where my classmates and I did homework together, discussed together, and laughed together.

We are destined to be separated, because we are all birds with dreams, and we will not stay.

We must cherish the good life in the last few days, cherish the time spent studying at our alma mater, cherish the time with friends, and cherish every lesson taught by the teachers.

The three-year friendship is not a cloud that will blow away. It is a Great Wall built with our true feelings, which will not change despite the wind and rain.

Graduation is an exciting and sad word. It means that we are about to face a new life and a more difficult road. It means that we have to work hard in this difficulty to create an outstanding ourselves. But graduation is also accompanied by pain, because parting is a friend of three years.

Goodbye, friend; Goodbye, teacher; Goodbye, Alma Mater; Farewell to you, I will still continue to struggle. "Don't worry if you have no friends in the future, no one in the world will know you." A man should aim at all directions and fight for friends! Graduation Speech Composition Part 8

On that day, I was fifteen years old.

On that day, the beautiful first love was still there, and there were not many friends around me who were in love. That day, everything seemed to fall into place that day.

I have been going to school in Luzhou since I was a child, and I have never changed schools during this period, so every year on that day I can see rows of seniors taking photos on the playground. It can be said that feelings are just playing tricks on people. It’s time to get together and leave. Nothing lasts forever.

In a blink of an eye. But I am more willing to admit that the good things are all in the past, because you feel that the good things are all what you have lost.

In a blink of an eye. That day he also became a habitual offender with a criminal record.

That day, when I passed every classroom, I could hear or see slogans or slogans such as "Success in the high school entrance examination, success in life." I am a partial subject in the eyes of teachers, so no teachers are willing to "develop" me as a "delay". Some teachers even impose the weight of "bastard" on me, trying to tilt my thinking balance in the direction of leaving. However, I was lively and active by nature, and I often violated school and class rules. This gave the teacher every reason and certainty to place me in an insignificant position, untouchable.

At that time, the school was roughly divided into two groups. One group advocated studying for higher education, and the other group advocated going crazy and having fun. Obviously I belonged to the latter, so the teachers had another opportunity to take advantage of it. Parents called me one by one to chat. By late at night, this has caused parents' phone bills to soar to three digits, making parents feel a sense of financial crisis whenever they see or hear their names. But parents are different from students. Teachers and parents mostly use polite words. You push me, you are gentle and gentle, which reflects the noble qualities of teachers. Unless your child scratched a certain subject teacher's car parked at school, the consequences will be different depending on the nature.

The human heart is like a fortune teller, and nine times out of ten you cannot believe it. Teachers often use dialects from various places and a large list of professional vocabulary they teach to talk about you, and make you feel embarrassed in every way. When you are so embarrassed that you can’t talk anymore, the teacher comes: I won’t do it next time, so, write A three thousand word review.

That day, the most smiling faces that day were smiling, laughing, crying and laughing.

Our class is often at the bottom of the age spectrum, so of course we become "trash" in the eyes of the teachers. Fortunately, we "junk" are better at entertaining ourselves than the teachers. We have different ways of playing things every day. The teachers can only report to the parents and use their mouths. The teachers think this is what a gentleman does. thing. But it’s hard to imagine how teachers back then could still speak with great interest in front of dozens of “happy rubbish” under the podium.

Happy, I was really happy at that time. I knew clearly that what I got in exchange was a low-class life, and I couldn't live up to the teacher's noble thinking. Forget it, you live your upper-class world of flowers, and I live my low-life, mediocre life.

That day, we left with a smile, and many people went to the Internet cafe to play the same game together. I noticed the expressions of the teachers, and there were many who shook their heads and sighed. Maybe a few decades later, when I am sitting on hundreds of billions of dollars in wealth and accidentally appear on the Forbes China Celebrity List, the teacher will definitely think that he taught well back then, and whether I was one of those "holding back" back then has long been lost. People mention it again.

On this day, there are not many friends around who are not in love.

On this day, I am seventeen years old.

This day, that day... ;
