IMAGINATIVE
ARTS!
CORE
CLASS: This week we will try to create
within ourselves the initiative to DO something!
I. SEEK
KNOWLEDGE: Do all
four and record or highlight your favorite parts.
1. Plan out your week with your mentor/parent
like in a weekly accountability meeting.
2. Read “Way to Be” Ch 6: “Be Positive”
3. Read “The Monument” section of “Charlie’s Monument” and ponder
what the take home message is for you from the book. Be prepared to participate in a book
discussion by writing down a few favorite quotes!
4. Now re-read and finish memorizing the scripture and quote from
Teddy Roosevelt (at least once!) and think about what all these things have in
common.
II. GAIN
UNDERSTANDING: Do both of the following.
1. Come prepared to participate in a hike and book discussion
about “Charlie’s Monument.” Wear good
shoes!
2. Bring a cool rock.
III. INTELLIGENCE: Now, think about what you have studied
this week and this month. How can you
make it a part of your life? Make a plan
and DO something to change yourself with what you have learned. (Check
out the blog for ideas!)
My project for creating
intelligence is:

Do we get to keep our cool rock we bring? :)

Here's a video about forgiving even when it's impossible. I’ve never had something like this or like Charlie’s experience happen to me, but for me, at 4yrs, this was huge. My Dad, Joseph, David and I were at the rec. center for David’s karate class and I brought a baby doll and a stuffed zebra. After his class I left both of my toys on the chair I was sitting on. When we got to the car I realized that I had left my baby doll and my little zebra. We went back inside and they were gone. I was sad at first but as I got older I look back on that day and realize that someone might have needed my toys more than me. I think it takes integrity, courage, compassion, and faith to be able to forgive. “Show me how to love the unloveable Show me how to reach the unreachable Help me now to do the impossible Forgiveness”
