What is “America” means to me My poster board is broken up into five different sections. My first section of my collage is pictures of America’s most famous symbols‚ such as the White House‚ the flag‚ Mount Rushmore‚ and the Statue of Liberty.

my needs. I do not fully understand what it means to really save money because the money I make I just spend on wants‚ not needs. I have yet to do any of these things. Also as a 17 about to be 18 year old boy I am still not fully mature‚ I still act like a child quite often. An example of this immaturity is I still expect Christmas and birthday presents‚ I still expect my parents to pay for me when I am with them‚ and finally I still sometimes act like a little kid when I do not get what I want.

I asked those around me what patriotism means to them. The most common answer I received was the love of one’s country. But what does that really mean? I received all types of examples. Displaying our country’s flag at your home or in your business was patriotic. Observing national holidays such as Memorial Day‚ Flag Day‚ Independence Day and Veterans Day.

What Family Means To Me There are things in life we simply do not have a choice about. These include birth‚ death‚ taxes and of course the people we are permanently associated with. From the moment of conception we live with people who help and shape our lives known as our family. As a teenager this “no choice deal” seems very frustrating to me at times.

What race and ethnicity means to me When I hear the word “race”‚ the first thing that I think of is a person’s skin color‚ facial features and the texture of their hair.

What Does it Mean to Be a Teacher? By: Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee The love between teacher and disciple is both the most powerful and the most paradoxical relationship a human being can experience; it is unique in this world‚ in that it belongs only to God. And yet it has to be played out in the human arena where it is inevitably brought into the limited and distorted structures of the ego and personality. From the point of view of the soul all the projection and misunderstanding this gives rise to

I have many educational goals that I would like to accomplish. My fist goal is to finish high school. My second goal is to go to collage to study for engineering. While Im in high school I would like to start an extra curricular activity. I want to try out for the football team. I like to play football because it is a thrill to me when I make a touch down. I like to release my anger by running down the field and by tackling people. Football also makes me feel important because I have a curtain
