Write about a time when your failure was necessary for your growth.

Prompt Response: A time when my failure was necessary for my growth was not getting a time cut. I was going for a best time and a swim time cut but I fell short. I was really upset and I am really harsh on myself so I chewed myself out. But without that race I wouldn't have realized a critical mistake I was making that was making me slow. With the help of my coach, I am working to improve the skill so that the next opportunity I have to race I will be prepared. 

Summary: Today in class we took a benchmark test.

Reflection: I don't really like tests but it wasn't long so I don't have too many complaints.

This hit me when I played basketball with some friends and one of their little siblings joined in. I thought this was no big deal, but l was getting beat by him and that made me realize I wasn't the best a sports with a ball.  Summary: Today in class we completed a Newsela while Mr.Rease had a substitute  Reflection: I liked the lesson because the article we read was on an interesting topic everyone should know about the dangers of self diagnosis.

I wouldn't pay extra for something made in the United States because if I'm comparing to products I'm only looking at price and quality to make my decision.  Summary: Today in class we read an article and anwserd questions and did a writing prompt on it.  Reflection:  I liked the simple assignment on a Friday because I was really tired.

 Today in class we started to type up our essay that we have been working on for the past week. The topic of my essay was on goals I had this year. I learned that writing an essay is not as hard as it seems at first glance. I like the lesson because I got to see the work I've done starting to come into a finished product. I did struggle a little writing my opening and closing paragraphs but nothing in can't over come. Feeling great today I revised my schedule to fit all I need to do. So I have time for everything I need to do in a day.
