I went from an A to a D and I knew if I didn't get my grade up the coaches would not let me play football and my dad would be mad at me. I really wanted to play football so I knew I had to get my grade back up to a B or A. I studied and went to tutoring every day until I had an A or B. I also fixed my attitude and payed attention to the teacher.

This relates to the theme because I didn't understand what I was doing to my grade by messing around and not paying attention.

This obstacle made me understand that I have to learn and pay attention in class to do what I want. It also made me understand that I was making the wrong choices and it taught me how to fix what I was doing.

I did play wide receiver even though I wasn't at my best. After the season I saw what I was playing like and didn't like it. I went to my uncle because he is a great hockey player and was the top of his class for the razor backs. (Arkansas) I knew he knew how to gain muscle and get faster so he help me. I am now in 8th grade and really strong and fast.

How does this relate to the theme?

This relates to the theme because I found what was wrong and I understood that I had to fix it. I did fix it and now I am great at football.]]> 2022-10-18 16:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/schmagra000/ikkdjgtcft8ymkbl/wish/2345514392
