Class Evaluation

        There are many things that I like about this class, first for all we get to practice our typing skill. Each day we will get better and faster at typing. Also because we get to get better at our writing and typing skills. One other thing I like about this class is that we get to hear new inspirational quotes when we are here.

      One thing that I do not like about this class is that some of the other classes don't get the same projects as we do and that's not fair. For example we got assigned a CTR project and none of his other digital comperturing classes got it.

      My recommendations to improve this class is to give us more time to write and finish our assignments in class. For example when we are writing our student success statements I don’t have enough time to finish what I am going to write. Then I feel like I am falling behind in class have have to finish outside of class.

       A highlight for me in this class is when we got to ask him a lot of questions. I believe that brought him and the whole class a lot close together because we really got to know a lot about him.

      Yes, I really did my best in this class because I always made sure I had at least 10 sentences in my SSS’s. I made sure it had no grammar errors and everything was spelled correctly in each thing we did. Also because I always used to challenge myself in the typing tutor to get 100% in every single one.

      Yes, I am reading and writing in my Life Planning Goals journal each and every day for five minutes. I make sure I prevail those goals and make more. I also make sure I type a “yes” on my blog account every day once I finish writing in my journal.


      I am committed to being a CTR person because I feel that it makes a big impact on your life whether you do bad or good. This is why I always remember to do the right every day to succeed. It is very important to learn about and I’m glad I did learn about it because it has really had a huge impact on my life to getting straight A’s in school to also having good manners.

Honesty

      In this video was a class that was taking a test and a girl asked this other person for the answer. Then she realized that telling her the answer was the wrong thing to do so she said “no.” Then there was also some medical students in a room taking a test and the professor left. Then all of a sudden they started pulling out cheat sheets from their sleeves and pockets. Not until one brave person stood up and said how cheating was bad. He was also going to tell on anyone that was cheating because he had a long journey to take the test and he didn't want anyone cheating. He thought it wasn't fair. These are just some great examples about being honest but there are definitely more out there that you can relate to more. You should always be honest because then if you dont thing will end up going bad.


“When you tell one lie it leads to another.”
Paul Hatch

      This quote means that if you tell one tiny little lie it just keeps going to another and another and you can't stop. One you start you can never stop because then you get the habit of lying and that's not good. You have to remember to always choose the right and never lie, you should always tell the truth. For example, your teacher gave you homework during summer break, 2 essays and reading. You have almost 3 weeks to finish that assignment but you become a sloth and decide to not do it. Then you go back to school and you tell your teacher that your dog ate it instead of telling her that you didn't do it at all. So what you did there is tell a lie and once you said that you can never stop you just keep going and going with all the lies. You can't even catch up with how many lies you've told. This is why it is always better to tell the truth and be honest towards people because it is never right to lie. You have to be a CTR person 24/7 no matter what and that includes telling the truth.

The Sting of the Scorpion
Patrick Kearon

      One day there was a family having an idyllic vacation in the desert, everything was going well until a little boy decided to choose the wrong. He want to go on  a walk to go explore but he was forgetting one important thing. His parents always told him to put his shoes on before he goes out anywhere. That one day he decided to become a sloth and not listen to his parents. Then he put on his flip-flops thinking it was a source of protection for his feet when it wasn't. So he when out walking and all of a sudden he felt a little sting on his foot, he moved away and saw it was the scorpion who stung him. He felt pain all throughout his leg and screamed very boisterous for help. His parents quickly went running and went in the car to the nearest hospital which was two hours away. Luckily the doctors stopped the pain but just because the little boy showed impertinence to his parents they had to run there who vacation. This is why you always listen to your parents and choose the right because if you don't then it's going to come back to bite you. Even if you don't feel like doing it, you have to because you know that's the right thing to do.


 
“Always do right”
Mark Twain

      This quote means that no matter in what situation you are in you always have to remember to always do right. These 3 little words can mean something very powerful to someone. It could inspire them to do better. It could inspire them to make it difference in their life. It could also be a complete turning point in their life and very will change them for the better in just 3 simple words, always do right.This is very important because if you don't do right then many bad things can happen and nobody wants that. This is why you have to pay attention to what the good people are tell you to do. You should follow in their footsteps and do right just like other people did. Now hopefully you will do the same in always doing right. For example you are in school and walking in the hallway and you see a piece of trash on the floor. If you choose to always do the right then you will pick it up and throw it to the nearest trash can you see. If you choose not to follow this quote and you choose the wrong then life may not turn out as great as you think. If you do not follow this things can go very bad. So this is why you have to always do right.

“It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company.”
Unknown

      This quote means that you would rather be better off by yourself than to be around with bad people that are going to influence you to do bad things. If you know there is going to be bad untrustworthy people in a party then might as well not go at all. Even though you might think it's cool to hang around with the bad kids in reality it actually not. You have to remember to always choose the right in situations like these. You might not even know that you will have more fun by yourself than hanging out with the wrong group of people. For example your friend invites you to a party at her house and you go. Once you arrive you see everyone smoking and drinking right away you have to leave because it is not right. Even though you might think it is fun you are better off alone than this bad influences. You don't need other people to make you happy because you have yourself and that's all you need. Being reclusive doesn't mean anything bad it just means you are choosing the right to say by yourself away from all the bad. Just remember to always choose the right even in tough situations.

      There are many ways we can honor and show respect for WW2 veterans. First of all we can start by saying a simple “thank you” because even a little word can mean so much to a person. You could also help donate at the USO and volunteer at a local USO Chapter. If you know a family member that passed away during WW2 then stop by at their grave and give them a flower/ flag. You can also display a yellow ribbon on your clothes, car, or around a tree. However there are many more things you can do to honor and show respect for our veterans because they have done so much for us. There are some people that don't appreciate this as much as they're supposed to but we have to encourage them that they work so hard to get us at where we are now and we have to appreciate every single moment of it.

Challenges Teens Face Today

      It can be very hard when you become a teenager because everything from that point on is going to change either for the better or worse. Teenagers deal with very conundrum situations. It might be very rough at times and you have to deal with it but not for other people. Some teens might not know how to react to certain problems and don't know how to handle things. They don't want anyones help and that's when they start experiencing things. For example, they might start smoking or drinking because a loved family member passed away. They can start being bullied and get peer pressured to do certain things. They might also have difficulty with their body image and not like how they look and they don't eat or vomited their food. Then they become very ill. A major challenge I am dealing with today is school and stress. It can be very hard maintaining a certain grade for a long time. Then there are tests, essays, presentations, and everything can be very stressful at once. Some people can't deal with the work and decide not to do it and just renounce. Today I am dealing with it by asking for help either if it's from my teacher, friend, or family member that can help me with school work. You can also become a Ctr person which can help you make good choices throughout times. If you don't know what a CTR person is, basically it means choose the right. This motto can help you overcome challenges you might face because you will know what good decisions to make. Instead of choosing drinking and smoking as a solution you can choose the right and ask for help. I can help teenagers to overcome their challenges by telling them some good advice. Also by helping them out and talking it through on what to do.

Reflection:
   The greatest needs that teens have today is getting help and attention. Some of their parents don't even know there suffering in school. Teenagers need all the help necessary to get through their toughest times in life. If they don't get any kind of help or attention they might just renounce and start smoking and drinking. This is why they need help so they can start succeeding in life and make better choices.

"Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. Intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity when the body is healthy and strong"
President John F. Kennedy

      This quote means that having a healthy and fit body is the key and basis to being intelligent. Not only do you have to be smart and a good person but you have to be healthy and active all the time. For example if you are healthy then that will get you the motivation to start studying and pay attention to your surroundings. But for example if you are always a sloth and you just relax everyday that will not give you the motivation you need to become an intelligent person in life. Being health and active plays a big role on your life. If you are healthy you exercise, no drugs, no drinking, and you're a good person. If you choose not to be healthy and be lazy all day then your might as well rotund, don't get enough sleep, unmotivated, lazy, and you don't want to do anything but just sit there and do nothing. If you are healthy then there is a higher possibility that you are smarter and more intelligent because you are always active and going, You never give up and go for the best in life.
