Final: Part 1

FINAL: PART 1 

1. The things that I like about this class is that we were able to explore many health careers and what needs to be done do we can achieve that career. Also we came to know many quotes that can help us later in life to choose the right. 
2. The things that I dislike about this class is that it is so quiet and we are far apart from each other and are not able to discuss with our partners and friends. 
3. I don't have any recommendations for the class I think Mr. Haymore does a great job teaching it. 
4. Yes I really did my best in the class. I did all my assignments and would almost bring my life-planning book every class meeting. 
5. No I do not read my life-planning book daily for 2 minutes because I am very busy. I have to do homework, help my mom, and take care of my little brother and sisters so I don't really have time to sit and read my book for even two minutes. Also I honestly I don't read my Life Planning Goals daily because sometimes I leave it at school or I forget. But I also feel that I don't need it because I have those goals on my mind and its like I'm reading them but only in my mind.
6. Yes, I am committed to being a CTR person because I was raised to be like that. My parents always taught me manners, helping those in need, being friendly, hardworking, and just doing my best. Also being a CTR person has helped me gain the trust of many of teachers and peers.
7. I will always remember about this class is the song about Do the Right Thing and learning how to type. 

Student Success Statement The Ultimate Choice

The Ultimate Choice 

Of all the choices you ever make, there us one that supersedes all the 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 good more than any other choice. THE ULTIMATE CHOICE is: To be a CTR person -to always CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

Reflection: This last student success statement is telling us that the best choice we can make, to lead a better life, is being a CTR person and always doing the right. This choice as stated before supersedes all the other choice, in other words, its above any other choice which I don't really think is true. However it is true that being a CTR person helps you make correct choice and helps you be a better student and that we should be able to demonstrate that.

Student Success Statement

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

Sophocles 

Reflection: This should be what everyone should think because we should rather fail a test than cheat. We should rather not win in a sports game than use steroids and enhance our performance. If we do the opposite of what we should do then the consequences will be much worse you can be shameful, regretful and humiliated.
