Video Reflection

Video Reflection

In the video there was a football team and there was a boy who had a disability, he was also on the team, i don't think he played much, but anyways the team let him play on a game just so they could be nice and make his day and just make him feel happy and special. So they let him play and they all huddled around him they took very good care of him and led him to goal post, so they led him to the goal post and he made a touchdown. You couldn't see him but he was in the middle of the team huddle that's how much they wanted to make his day. The kid with the disability said "awesome" he said this because that's how he felt when he scored a touchdown.

"I won't cheat"

Reflection: His quote is basically means what it says, He won't cheat, but it also means more, he is trying to teach people everywhere children and adults, that cheating is wrong, it is not right to cheat, and if you cheat and win, your only cheating yourself because that wasn't really winning, that was losing making everyone else think that you have won. So i agree with Dale Murphy it isn't right to cheat and you should always remember that when you cheat YOU ARE ONLY CHEATING YOURSELF!!!

Wrestler Kid

Mitch Makee a 9th grade freshman boy had a dad that had an incurable type of cancer and they didn't know how much time he had to live. So apparently he thought that if he started a sport and win the championship that he would make his dad and every one else proud and that it would make everything all better. So he joined wrestling and every morning he would wake up at 6 am and go to the gym to train and practice, he would even practice when there wasn't practice. So then he won his first match... then another , then another, until he finally made it to the championships. So it was time for the big match, all his training paid off and he won the championship and he made his dad so proud.
