Community and Friendship

I just completed the Charger Trails course. I was a helpful and successful teammate because i listened to others and i took took turns talking and let other people share their ideas. I also participated by helping come up with new strategies, especially for the marble game when i pointed out that we should try a range of different ideas and see which one was most successful and improve it from their. I also pointed out faults and said what i thought we could do better. I also complimented my peers in my advisory when they helped us be successful.

I was a helpful friend because i complimented my peers in my advisory when they helped us be successful. And i cheered them on when they had found another match in Hog Call, the matching name game we played. I gave high fives and helped my friends build confidence and keep trying new ideas. Overall i liked Charger Trails, a lot of my friends who i thought would not like taking charge or being a leader or verbally giving us instructions did and they chose to stand out as a leader. So basically i am very proud of my advisory and my friends for sticking out as leaders and trying their best.

Seedfolks Favorite Character

My favorite character is Kim because she is widely confident in her ideas and she goes through with them. Instead of only thinking about planting she actually goes out there and starts something big that is important to her. Instead of dwelling over her sadness she tries to make herself feel better about it. She is also very strong and confident and bold and she really goes through with what she wants. If someone pushes her down she will fight to stand back up. Kim also accepts tragedy and makes the best of her loss. She is also the first one to start the garden which shows her bravery and confidence.
