My goals in 7th Grade is to make it to my clases on time, have no citizen(not sure how to spell that)marks, or have bad grades. My favorite unit in social studies last year, was when we studied about a lot of countries like Canada, and Mexico. The last post reminded me of the Aztecs and the Incas. That was my favorite unit in 5th Grade.

My goal for 7th grade is to be more excited about social studies, because last year Social Studies was very boring for me. My favorite thing that we learned in
6th grade was our Canada unit and memorizing all the provinces and learning all about its history, because my relatives live there.

my goal for this year is to learn more about different cultures and get to know geography better. my favorite subject in social studies my sixth grade year was learning about the acient civilization of the Aztecs and incas. I don't think I could live with the Aztecs. especially knowing that I could get sacrificed to the gods at any time.

To become legendary this year, I will conquer my goals. To do this I will study harder than ever before and will start saying my personal ideas and start asking questions about any misunderstandings or concerns I might have. I will not do this in just one class but all classes that I take.

To reach my goal this year, I plan to focus more on studying. last year I would scan a paper and say "ready!", but now I plan to be more thorough. I plan to not be afraid to ask a lot of questions. Which I intend to do sometimes. I'm glad i can have a new chance for a better start this year.

If you are caught texting your thumbs will be cut off. I think we can use this rule because we are not supposed to carry phones and I know that this is a problem because kids do it anyway, so this law would probably would be scared to text or even carry their phones in school.

If you skip detention or ISS then you will be given ten days of detention or ten days of ISS.

Revised.

If you are caught texting in class your thumbs will be tied together. This is a good rule because a lot of kids text in school when their not supposed to. This will also embarrass kids so they will stop.
