Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving, or Thanksgiving Day, is a holiday celebrated in the United States on the fourth Thursday in November. It became an official Federal holiday in 1863, when, during the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of "Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelled in the Heavens", to be celebrated on the last Thursday in November. Also, there are reports that the original Thanksgiving proclamation was signed by George Washington.

 

Twelve things I am thankful for are being able to be alive, have a home, have a family, sleep knowing I am okay, have parents that care for me, having my own room, being happy every day, having good grades, having my grandparents, having a bed, having food , and being thankful for having and getting an education.

 “If it is not right don’t do it; if it’s not true don’t say it,”

Marcus Aurelius

To me this quote means that no matter what the cause is never do something or say something that isn’t true because it is worthless. For example saying curse words just because you want to. Also, falling asleep late when you have school early in the morning.

I would not like to be one because I don’t really want to study our teeth. Also because I think I wouldn’t be happy if that was my job.

 

Veterans Day

Veterans Day

Veterans Day was established on November the 11^th on 1918. Veterans Day, formerly known as Armistice Day, was originally set as a U.S. legal holiday to honor the end of World War I. More than 16 million Veterans served during war and more than 5.5 million served during peace time. Veterans Day is not Memorial Day. Memorial honors the dead soldiers that protected our country and Veterans Day honors the soldiers that are alive and that used to be soldiers and soldiers that are still at war.

 

To me Veterans Day means to me is to honor the soldiers that were and still are soldiers for what they did to protect use and there country. They risked and still risk their lives for us.

Student Success Statement

                  Integrity

The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles. Integrity is a personal choice, an uncompromising and predictably consistent commitment to honor moral, ethical, spiritual and artistic values.

To me integrity means to be strong but kind at the same time. Also being kind of generous in a way that would help others.

Some synonyms for integrity is being honesty, probity, rectitude, honor, righteousness, morality, virtue, decency, fairness, scrupulousness, sincerity, truthfulness, trustworthiness.

The man had integrity as he passed through the people that bullied him,

I had integrity when I had bought new shoes and walked back to school.

 “He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.”

 Proverbs 13:20

 

To me this means that the people you hang around with is the person you’re going to be when you grow up. Also it means that you can mess your life up or have a great life just by hanging around people that are good or bad influences.
