Intro
As you guys know, my name is Shawn and I'm in 7th grade thank you for coming to my TPOL. TPOL stands for transitional presentation of learning. This year has been the biggest eye opening year of school I have ever done. I’ve learned how hard school actually is because all my other years of school were pretty easy but this year we get so much homework, really big assignments and many essays, this year has helped me learn that if I want something I will have to work hard to get it once I am old enough.
Identity
My grade level lens is Identity. For me Identity is who you are, I know that that is super original but it's true, it's everything, what you do, how you act, what you like, the people you chose to hang out with, it's all part of your identity. This year my identity has changed a lot. Normally to avoid making other people annoyed or feel bad I would just let people shove me around and be rude but throughout this year I have learned to stand up for myself. Now If somebody is being annoying or rude I stand up for myself and end it. Also something that has changed my identity is presenting. Presenting has helped me a lot, presenting made me better at presenting, it helps me a lot right now but also it will help me a lot in the future for high school and college but it has also made me more social and I get along with people a lot more and have more friends. Also I have changed in procrastinating, I do great with this most of the time, like for homework I get all of it done within the first 2 days, but when I get super nervous for something I tend to just keep putting it off, like I don’t practice my script, most of the time it has ended ok for me, but one time it did not, me and some of my friends wanted to sign up for the talent show, we planned on singing life could be a dream, but I kept putting it off because I was scared, but once I finally got the guts to sign up, it was to late, we could not sign up because there were a lot of people that had already signed up. So now I know that I can’t procrastinate on anything.
Significant Adult
Significant Adult
My significant adult this year is Mr Tony. Mr Tony is super kind and caring to everybody, and if people are feeling down he can always make them feel better with his funny voices and jokes. But that's not all he’s good at, he’s also really good at the habits of heart and mind, for respect he always respects people by being kind, and he is respectful to the area too by picking up trash and more. For integrity he is always just doing the right thing but he also holds other people accountable by making sure they pick up their trash and aren’t playing games. Next is effort, I don’t really get to see him putting effort into his work and stuff but I know that he works really hard in his work and works hard in the most terrible thing ever, CMAS. Last is refinement, because I really only see Mr Tony in advisory and at recess I don’t know what he refines but I bet if he messes something up I bet that he would work hard to fix it. He inspires me because of how happy he is all the time, even if he is having a hard time he always has a happy attitude, and is a good example for everyone.
