Encouragement

There is one person that has encouraged me. He has and will encourage me throughout my whole life. He is my PaPa. He encouraged me through sports as a young child by giving me a dollar or maybe more for every hit, touchdown, out, or basket I scored.

Prezi Makes "The Giver"

This first week of school was mostly about our reading we did over the summer. Brock, Zac, and I were the only people in our class to read The Giver so that was why we were put in the same group. Our group was assigned to use Prezi as our presentation tool. One thing that I learned from this project is the meaning of theme. I always thought that the theme was just the main idea of the story, but it's actually the message about the main idea that the author is pointing out. All in all I feel that we did a great job with the project.

Freshman Ambitions for Success

For my freshman year of high school, I have three goals I want to achieve. One of these goals is an academic goal. My academic goal for the year is to get all A's in every class and to learn as much as I can. The second of these three goals is a social goal. This social goal is to try and talk to some people I haven't gotten to know yet. My third and final goal is to be able to increase my relationship with God greatly. I hope to have also memorized some bible quotes that I can use for the rest of my life.
