Prompt: Reflect on a time when you had to rely on someone else. How did it feel?

 There was a time when I had to rely on my older brother to help me prepare for a big math test. I had been struggling with the material, and no matter how hard I tried, it just wasn’t clicking. At first, I felt frustrated and embarrassed because I wasn’t used to asking for help. However, he was patient with me, breaking down the problems in a way that made sense. It felt reassuring to know someone had my back when I couldn’t figure it out on my own. By the end, I not only understood the material better but also realized that asking for help isn’t a sign of weakness. Instead, it’s a way to learn and grow with the support of others. That experience made me appreciate the importance of teamwork and trusting the people around me.

Today we did a collage and answered questions for ch 13-15.

Write about a truth you were afraid to accept.

A truth I was afraid to accept was that not everyone would understand or support the choices I made in life. For a long time, I feared disappointing others or being misunderstood.

Accepting this truth was difficult, but it ultimately brought me peace and a stronger sense of self. Reflect: Today we did a NewsELA. Summary: I actually have already completed the NewsELA.

  Near-death experiences (NDEs) are fascinating because they make me wonder if there’s something beyond this life. Some people describe bright lights, feelings of peace, or even seeing loved ones who have passed away, which sounds spiritual. Scientists, though, say these experiences might just be the brain reacting to trauma, like a flood of chemicals creating hallucinations. I think there could be truth in both views—maybe NDEs are our minds trying to make sense of something we don’t fully understand. If they are real, they could mean there’s an afterlife, which is both comforting and a little scary. Either way, NDEs remind me how mysterious life and death really are.
