Student Success Statement
“ Decisions Determine Destiny “
-Thomas S. Manson

Reflection : The choices you make , well lead you to your future.

Part 2
4. Successful students learn that a student and a teacher make a team. Most teachers  want exactly what you want: they would like for you to learn the material in their respective classes and earn a good grades.
Successful students reflect well on the efforts of any teacher; if you have learned your material, the instructor takes some justifiable pride in teaching. Join forces with your instructor, they are not an enemy, you share the same interests, the same goals-in short, you’re teammates, Get to know your professor . You’re the most valuable players on the same team. Your jobs are to work together for mutual success. Neither wishes to chalk -up a losing season. Be a team player!
5. Successful students don’t sit in the back. Successful students minimize classroom distractions that interface with learning. Students want the best seats available for their entertainment dollars, but willingly seek worst seat for their educational dollar.  Students who sit in the back cannot possibly be their teacher’s teammates. Why do they expose     themselves to the temptations of classroom experiences and distraction of all the people between then and their instructor? Of course we leave they choose the back of the classroom.
Choose the Right !!!

reflection




Reflection

I think that the boy chose the right, by giving the ball to that other little boy. By choosing the right that boy got the chance to feel good about himself, and he got a reward around 10 times the size as the original prize. This just shows the good the you can get, when you choose the right.

33. they are humble and they are happy to admit mistakes and to apologize. They are confident in their ability, but not arrogant. They are happy to learn from others. They are happy to make others look good rather than seek their own personal glory

34. They are adaptable and embrace change, while the majorities are creatures of comfort and habit. They are comfortable with, and embrace, the new and the unfamiliar.

35. They keep themselves in shape physically, not to be mistaken with the training for the Olympics or being obsessed with their body. They understand the importance of being physically well. They are not all about looks they are more concerned with function and health. Their body is not who they are, it’s where they live.
