This week, in honor the compare and contrast essay, we will be doing some self and peer reflection. But in order to be able to see another person with clear eyes, it's important to have a strong sense of self to compare to. For this week's blog entry, I want you to take this quick quiz:
http://www.buzzfeed.com/leonoraepstein/what-grade-are-you-getting-in-life
Once you get your "grade," think about why you got that grade. What areas of your life do you think you can improve on? What changes can you make to get a better "grade in life?" First, use this blog entry to write a plan of action of changes you can make to improve your grade.
Then, pick one change you can make. Take the next 3 or 4 days, and make that change in your life. Get more sleep. Talk to family and friends more often. Reorganize your room. Whatever you choose, make the change and see what happens. Then, finish your blog entry, by telling me what happened once you made the change. Did you life improve after you picked up your socks or cleaned that big pile of laundry in the corner?
If you take this test today, and get an A+ and your life is great, tell me why you think you got that A+. What are your biggest and most successful strategies for living and awesome existence?
This blog entry will be due next Wednesday, March 26 at midnight.
