Final Part 1

1. Some things that I liked about this class are that we learned a lot of quotes from different people and we got to use the computers.

2. Some things that I didn’t like about this class are that it’s too quiet and we can’t move to different seats.

3. I think that you should let us be freer like let us choose our seats, lets us talk more, and make it a fun experience to be here.

4. I do think that I did try and did my best in this class.                   

5. I am reading my 100+ goals daily for at least two minutes every day and will continue to do so.

6. I am committed to be a CTR person because if I’m committed I will be a good person and always choose the right.

7. What I will always remember about this class is all the things that Mr. Haymore taught us like learning to choose the right and being good people to be successful in life.

       The Ultimate Choice

Of all the choices you ever make, there is one choice that supersedes all others that will guide and help you in all your other choices. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions. This one choice, The Ultimate Choice, is the keystone to being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for god more than any other choice. The Ultimate Choice is:

To be a CTR Person-To ALWAYS CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

Reflection: I think that we should always pick the ultimate choice because it’s always the right choice. If we follow the ultimate choice we will always choose the right and be good people in life.

    Student Success Statement

“A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder.”

-Thomas Carlyle

Reflection: I think that this statement is true because a ship can’t be without a rudder because then it won’t be able to steer the ship the direction you want it to go. A person without goals is like a ship and a rudder because if you don’t have goals you don’t know what you want to do or where you want to go where you want to you won’t be able to steer yourself the way you want to go if you don’t have goals.

       Student Success Statement

       Beautiful Character

                    If there is beauty in character,

There will be harmony in the home.

   There will be order in the nation

There will be order in the nation.

    If there is order in the nation,

There will be peace in the world.

Conclusion:

If there is beauty in character, there will be peace in the world

-Chinese Proverb

Reflection: I think that this statement is true because in order to have peace with the world we should have peace within ourselves so we can make peace everywhere we go and with anything that we do. If we don’t have peace we will take hatred and not good feelings where ever we go we will make the world a horrible place.

   “The Six Pillars of Character”

The Six Pillars of Character are

·       Respect: Treat others with respect; It’s the Golden Rule

Ex: Be considerate of others feelings                                             

·       Trustworthiness: Be honest

Ex: Don’t cheat, deceive, or steal

·       Responsibility: Do what you’re supposed to do

Ex: Be self- disciplined

·       Fairness: Play by the rules

Ex: Take turns and share

·       Caring: Be kind

Ex: Express gratitude

·       Citizenship: Do your part

Ex: Follow the rules and laws

Reflection: I think that these six pillars of character are the rules and laws that we should follow to be happy and live a long life without problems. If we don’t follow these we will be un-happy and live a long life of pain.

Student Success Statement

“I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating. “

-Sophocles

Reflection: I think this is a good statement because I would rather have honor in myself than having a better score and feeling bad about my decisions or doing something wrong and regretting it. If I make good decisions I will have honor in myself and won’t need to cheat or choose the wrong choice because I will always do what I have to do.

Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a day in which we remember those who have died in the service of the United States of America. It is celebrated on the 25^th of May. I was originated during the Civil War and became an official federal holiday in 1971. Some ways we can show honor and respect on Memorial Day is by saying thank you to all the people in the armed forces and being thankful to them and their families. Most people celebrate this holiday by going to parades, going to the people who risked their lives for us and decorating their grave, and by having barbecues with the family. One way I will do on Memorial Day is thank all the people who have fought in war for our freedom. Also I will spend time with my family and be free because that’s why people risk their lives for to be free.
