Reflection:

For thanksgiving all my family came together. We all agreed to go to my Tia’s house. I met family members i didn’t even know i had.When our family came together, some of my cousins from Sinaloa and Mexico came along. Although my whole thanksgiving week i was doing homework and projects that were assigned for my classes, i can honestly say it was a good week. On Friday morning my mom, dad, sisters, and myself went shopping for black Friday. We tried to go early because it gets really packed with people since everything is more than half% off.In the same way on thanksgiving my mom and sister went to the super market to buy everything for the thanksgiving dinner.They usually make many dishes such as tamales, pozole,spagetti, pasta alfredo , turkey, and aside from that deserts. For the desserts my cousins and i were in charge of making two cakes ...and my mom had made jello the day before. We also had many games for kids and later on when everyone finished eating we started to dance since we had loud speakers playing music.

Veterans  Day is the first anniversary of the end of World War I. It has become  a national holiday celebrated on Nov.11.  In the same way Veterans Day is a public holiday that is dedicated to honor anyone who has served in the United States Military. The holiday began as a day to remember the end of World War I and was turned into a holiday by President Woodrow in 1919. Many of you may ask yourself,"why is it important to celebrate Veterans Day?" The reason why is to show respect for those who were willing to give up their lives to the country. In my opinion Veterans Day is important to me because it is a time to recognize and honor or pay respect to those who served this country.

     

                

Student Success Statement : "These are the 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity.''

1) Have the courage to say no.
2)Have the courage to face the truth.
3)Do the right thing because it is right.

Reflection: What i think this quote means is that in order to live a happy and peaceful life you have to be honest and truthful to yourself. Meaning you have to know when something is right or wrong, and if it's wrong than you should be able to say no to it. To add on integrity isn't just a word its a moral principal. It is when someone is always honest never lies, chooses the right every time etc...
For instance if someone offers you weed or any type of drug, someone that has integrity would say no because that's the right thing to do. To live with integrity it's really not much but know when something is wrong, be able to say no to it, and always be truthful to yourself.

Student Success Statement:” The best recreation is to do good.”

Reflection: What i think William Penn meant by this quote is that something you should enjoy doing is doing good.Doing good should be something you would want to do more than go hiking, playing soccer, basketball, volleyball etc… The reason why is because you should enjoy and want to be good to other.In the same way doing something good/nice for someone else should be something you  do daily.I also think this qoute means that theirs nothing better than to do good and feel good everyday.
