Community and Friendship

Community and Friendship

As a teammate I came up with ideas to help and different solutions. When our group was doing the marble luge we all listened to each other’s ideas and at the end we figured it out. We were the first group to finish the maze. In that activity you had to pay a lot of attention and trust your friends and teammates. I thought that the hog call was the easiest but you had to choose a leader and in that you have to step down and let the leader handle things.

-It was sometimes hard not to control something our check and make sure everything is right but you have to believe and trust to know that your team is right. My favorite activity was the maze because you had to trust your instinct and figure the maze out with your friends. When someone messed up we did not bring them down our yell at them we just said nice try. You have to trust people who you don’t hang out with because you don’t know if the person that you trust more is correct. You also have to listen to boys and girls even if you don’t like the person or believe that they are right.

My favorite character is Leona’s grandmother because she is super sassy and she has a attitude. I admire her because she out smarted and out lived all of the doctors that said her heart would exploded and she proved them wrong. She did not care what people thought about her and her method. I can relate to her because I am sassy and I don’t care what people think. She is really inspiring.
