The High Cost of Education.
I plan to apply for grants, scholarships and student loans to pay for college. I don't think I've done enough to be completely ready for college. I should definitely work harder than I have been. I haven't applied for FASFA.

Creativity Counts
What is creativity?
Creativity is being able to see the world in a different perspective.
Why is creativity important in education?
Creativity is important in education because everyone is creative in their own way. School would be very dull and incredibly boring without being able to use our imaginations.
Imaginations and creativity go hand in hand. If you are using your imagination you are being creative. I also think it helps you learn better if you're able to use it.
Hire me, please!
1. Some of my strengths I would benefit from during an interview is eye contact. I always make sure I'm using good eye contact when I'm talking to anyone. Another thing is my people skills. I enjoy talking and listening to people so I think that would definitely be a strength during a job interview.
A weakness I have is fidgeting. I fidget A LOT. I don't think that would be good during an interview because it's very distracting.
2. I can over come my weakness by keeping my hands in my lap and being mindful of what my body is doing so its not a distraction. I can accentuate my strengths by keeping good eye contact and being a good listener and try not to talk too much.
3. I've never applied for a job.

Digital Learning Day
A digital tool I could use in my classroom is the document camera. I could use it when teaching or explaining something new to them. I've used it when teaching a math game. It is beneficial to them because the picture is projected onto a large screen where the whole class can see it.
Digital tools that my teachers use on a day to day basis are power points and the document cameras for note taking. Sometimes we watch videos on the internet related to the subject we are studying.
Heres a site that talks about different digital tools-
