Future- 3 Years

In three years I see myself at North Broward Prep in 12th grade. My brand will get me there because I will hopefully still be playing hockey.

Group Involvement

 I was in a group activity with my friend. We were in 7th grade science and had to make the coral reef in a shoe box. I made a few of the fish, got most of the supplies, and painted the box. Unique skills that came up was molding and molding the clay  to look like fish, painting the box with the right color blue and not getting it on anything else, and pouring the sand in without it getting all over the place.

US Schools Under My Control

If I had control over the current educational design in the US' format I would change many things. School would be Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. There would be certain classes on certain days. Yes, I do like school on some days, but I rather be at home able to sleep in and hang out with my friends. I would change shorter hours to the school days, good lunch, and not as many classes. You choose the classes that you like.

         The first thing I would change is shorter hours. I would start school at 10 and end at 3. Kids would come to school more well rested, and ready to learn. They wouldn’t complain their tired and they could still be with their friends at later hours of the night.

         The second thing I would change is better lunches. I would either bring food in from other restaurants, or it would be freshly, home cooked. None of the microwave junk. There will be different items to buy each day. They won’t be just fast food restaurants, they will be healthy, yet delicious.

         The third thing I would change is not as many classes. Some kids don’t like to take PE or band, or art, so they would get to choose the class of what their talented in. Instead of seven periods, you will have 3 classes one day, and 4 the other, and then they would be mixed up for the third day of school each week. It will keep the kids focused, and they will have to pay attention, and that is always good for the mind.

I would change shorter hours to the school days, good lunch, and not as many classes. Yes, some people may disagree with me others not. That is just a fact in life. That is what I would do if I had control over the current educational design in the US’s format.

A Memorable Moment in My Life that Changed Me

A memorable moment in my life that changed me is when I learned how to tie my shoe. When my mom, dad, and I were driving from my Grandma and Grandpa’s house in Ocala, Florida. I had a little book for kids learning to count, spell, and then there was to laces on a flat shoe in the book. I was trying so hard, and on a 5 hour car ride I knew I would learn. It was my third time trying and the next thing I knew I had just learned how to tie a shoe. I was so happy. My mom was thrilled and my dad was even happier. That changed me because it showed that I was capable of achieving anything I put my mind to.
