Inspiration! Student Blogging!

Check out these pictures.  You may recognize them from billboards.  Which one inspires you most?  Why?

What is a value you could be recognized for?  How do you Pass It On?

Values: Pass-It-On

Here is what some students had to say...

Thomas Edison inspires me because he discovered electricity. Even after he tried to do it 9,999 times and he still persevered. So after he thought about it and put some hard work into it on the next time he tried he discovered the light bulb and electricity. That shows if you persevere you can do anything.  That is why Thomas Edison is the person that inspires me.

If they were making a poster about me I think they should elaborate on how caring I am. I'm caring because I put others before myself.  I am also patient.  I don't get frustrated easily.  The final thing is that I'm friendly and that I'm a good listener.  That is what I think should go on a poster if they made one about me. - QB


 All of these pictures inspire me, but Bethany Hamilton inspired me most out of 57 different pictures of amazing people. Bethany inspired me because after she lost her arm she kept trying and learned to surf with only one arm. She believed in herself and what she loved to do. If I were her I would have given up completely on surfing, she didn't. Bethany had friends and family help her through it. She put all of her effort into surfing and living life normal. I am amazed by Bethany Hamilton.
            I think that if I were recognized for something it would be my effort in school and caring about school. I think that I would be recognized for these things because when I come to school every day I care about my grades and so I do my personal best. If people that do not enjoy school I recommend that they do their best and will soon start to love it. School and your education are very important in your life so be the best that you can be. :) - SM

The one that inspires me is the one that say life is more than a game. The person on that was Shaquille O'Neal and they honored him because of his perseverance and that he went to college and got a great education and then he went to the NBA. Shaq was a great role model because he always tried his best and he never gave up no matter what.  That is the reason that he inspired me. If they made a poster with me on it, it would say something like never give up because I always like to push myself harder, and do my best and always keep trying.  I want to be successful in life an go to college an get an good education and then become famous like Shaq did. - JL

     The pass it on poster that inspired me was the family of Incredibles. The saying is: Your family can do incredible things, too. The reason this inspires me is because my mom gets tired and says she needs help, and no one helps her. When we all help her she is not as tired and we can do more stuff together as a family.  Our family works better as a family rather than one person doing all the work.
      The pass it on poster that would fit me is, one about honesty. It would fit me because I am a very honest person. How I try to pass on honesty is I tell everyone I know to be honest. I say that I would rather get my feelings hurt and know the truth than be happy because of a story. -EA

The pass it on poster I chose was one of a little girl who raised 1,000,000 dollars so that she can help people who have cancer although she also has cancer. She showed an example of INSPIRATION. Many people can follow her example. Her name is Alex Scott. She set an example for me in not only inspiration, but also in ambition, compassion, caring, confidence, and overcoming all of her hardships. -VA
    

The one that inspire me the most is the one that say that life is more than a game cause you should do more in your life than play all day you got to learn in your life too.  If life is always a game you would not learn. Shaquille O`Neal got a good education and graduated from college. He played basketball in the NBA and he kept persevering and he never gave up in his life.  He kept trying. - JL
