Question of the Day: What do you do when you encounter obstacles to success?
Tuesday, September 5, 2017
Happy Tuesday, hope you had a great day off yesterday.
Remember today is a Tuesday schedule, so it's a long hour and only odd classes today.
You will have this week and next week to finish Module 2.
But, keep in mind you will only have 3 days each week because of days off and long hours.
Question of the day: What role does procrastination play in your life?
I am not a fan of procrastination. If I wait until the last minute then I am just all stressed out and try to hurry and get it done and don't do my best work. Planning ahead and staying on top of things is crucial!

Journal grades are in.
Pretty good grades overall for the first week.
Remember to be ON TASK and WORKING the entire class period to receive all of your points!
Keep up the great work!
Question of the day: What kind of feedback helps you improve?
It is rare for someone to like to be critiqued, however that is what helps you get better.
I LOVE feedback. Specific feedback. Honest feedback. It helps me know what I am doing wrong so I can fix and improve it and get better! I heard someone say on TV yesterday, "There is a difference between being tough and being mean" and I agree with that statement and can also say I love when someone is tough on me, it makes me better.

Your score will be placed in Infinite Campus.

Question of the Day: Are you a saver or a tosser?
I am a tosser. They say you should throw 7 things a day away!
I do not like clutter, or things out of place.
That stresses me out!
The only thing I am a saver for are sentimental things. Family things. I'm emotional about it.

Question of the Day: What annoys you?
Ask my sons, or my volleyball girls!...I have a lot of pet peeves.
I like to number them...
Pet peeve #462 Disorganization. My brain doesn't function without organization.
Pet peeve #624 Talking while I'm talking and trying to teach you something (or dribbling a volleyball while I'm trying to coach you). Don't do it.
Pet peeve #359 Not owning up. Say sorry and fix it!
Keep listening, I'll tell you more of them as we go. 😁

Question of the day: How competitive are you?
I am very competitive! I love the feeling of success and a win, especially when you know you have worked hard and tried your best at something.
I also think that sometimes there are bigger and more important things in life than winning.
My mom always told me in those times I was "building character". Not always a fun thing!

Question of the day: Are you a good listener?
I have to work really hard to be a good listener. My brain thinks fast and sometimes when others are talking I start thinking about how I am going to respond or if I get a question in my own brain while they are talking, then I get distracted. So....I am working REALLY hard on concentrating and focusing to be a better listener!
