WWW,
Sometimes we react without thinking. We let ourselves get stressed out and we do or say something that we can later regret. The illustration of the cup overflowing was your favorite illustration from the above video. Your questions for this week (answer both in complete sentences!!) are:
1. What are the three things we can do in moments of STRESS that can help you NOT overflow?
2. What is YOUR cat hair?
I can’t wait to read and respond to each of you!

my cat hair is when one time my big brother and I were playing and we started to get a little carried away and I broke one of my moms favorite medals that was glass and I broke it and when my mom saw me break it she got really mad and told me that I was grounded for 2 weeks and I threw a huge fit and when my mom saw me throwing a huge fit I got grounded for 2 more weeks but then I told my self that I should of broke her favorite medal that was glass so I went to my mom and said mom I am sorry that I broke your favorite medal and my mom said it is okay so when we made up I promised that I would never break any thing else that is important to my mom.
Question number one:there are three things you can do to calm yourself,you can either shake it off, breath,or take a knee.
Question number two:there are three basic things that are my cat hair, there’s #1 due dates #2 failing a certain subject or #3 my sister’s grades.
I could let my mind rest and come down.
I could take my time on my work.
I could think of good things that could happen.
My cat hair is when my coach rushes me and keeps pushing me hard and what I should do is ……..
SHAKE,TAKE A KNEE,and BREATH IN AND BREATH OUT.
I have to take a knee and take a deep breath and shake it off
when I play soccer my coach will sometimes rushes me so I could get better and better
