                Final Part: 1   

1.) I liked that every time we came in we had a different Student Success Statement and different Job to look up.

2.) I honestly did not have any problems in this class I honestly was glad I would have to come to this class.

3.) I think for this class you should put a little more time and allow us to go on YouTube because some videos we cannot watch.

4.) I think I did try my best in this class because I always tried to finish my work.

5.) I am reading my life planning goals notebook daily even though I am not really up to date on my Electronic Portfolio.

6.) I am committed to being a CTR person because it just doesn’t make me do bad things it also rubs off on others.

7.) I will remember to always choose the right and to treat others how I want to be treated.

                  The Ultimate Choice

Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others-the ultimate choice. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions. This one choice, The Ultimate Choice, is your keystone to being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice. The ultimate choice is: To Be a CTR Person-to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!


To me being a CTR person is being a great person in general. You can say you’re a CTR person but until you do something that is CTR you are. I am glad I had this class because not only have I been doing good in school I’ve also been doing good outside of it. I have now promised to be a CTR person and will always be one.

        Student Success Statement

“Success is not an accident. Success is actually a choice. Are the habits you have today on par with the dreams you have of tomorrow?”







Alan Stein






                


To me this quote was greatly explained by Alan Stein to show what he meant. Stephen Curry was not supposed to be in the NBA he was too short and couldn’t shoot over players. So one summer him and his dad day after day tried to change his shooting form. He was a 3 star player in high school apparently but still was doing what he does in the NBA now. So this shows that letting people tell you things doesn’t mean it will happen you choose how your life will be and to be what you want be just doesn’t happen you have to practice on it.

       Student Success Statement

If there’s beauty in character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, 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: To me this means that in the world one positive thing leads to another and if everyone in the world does positive things there will be no problems and everything that has happened will be fine. So having a beautiful character has many benefits and one is having a positive life.

     “The Six Pillars of Character”

The six pillars of character are Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship.

Trustworthiness: Dependable or reliable.                                                                  Ex: The manager has gotten his trustworthiness with the owner.

Respect: To honor or have confidence in one.                                                                Ex: I respect my elders.

Responsibility: Having a duty or having control over someone.                           Ex: It’s my responsibility to throw away the trash.

Fairness: Being free from bias or injustice.                                                                 Ex: In all fairness I only did one page of homework.

Caring: Worrying for someone else besides yourself.                                                Ex: My parents care for me.

Citizenship: The status of a person recognized under the custom or law as being a member of a state.                                                                                      Ex: To show my citizenship I vote.

  
        


Reflection: To me this means that all these things in life are nothing if you do not have these characteristics.

     Student Success Statement

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

Sophocles

 











To me this quote by Sophocles is saying that winning isn’t everything yes it is a great thing but what matters the most is how you won. Cheating on a game is like cheating on a final. Knowing you cheated is making you feel like you’re no good. But if you fail and know you tried your hardest you will know that you will have to practice harder next time you get the opportunity.

                  Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States. Memorial Day is for remembering the people who died while serving in the country's armed forces.  The holiday is celebrated every year on the last Monday of May. For many Americans, the central event is attending one of the thousands of parades held on Memorial Day in large and small cities all over the country.
