Write a letter to your future self to read after you graduate high school. Paragraph 1- tell yourself about how you made it through the pandemic- how did you persevere, what do you want to remember about it?
Paragraph 1- tell yourself how proud you are for making it through this difficult time

Paragraph 2 - predict what your next 4-5 years of schooling will be like- what will school look like? What clubs or hobbies would you like to do? What colleges do you want to look at? What are your hopes and dreams?

Dear Future Self,
(paragraph 1)Let me tell you about this past year……………

(paragraph 2)

Sincerely,

Read this excerpt from i never had it made. "it's all that ought to count," he replied. "but it isn't. maybe one of these days it will be all that counts. that is one of the reasons i've got you here, robinson. if you're a good enough man, we can make this a start in the right direction. but let me tell you, it's going to take an awful lot of courage." he was back to the crossroads question that made me start to get angry minutes earlier. he asked it slowly and with great care. "have you got the guts to play the game no matter what happens? " "i think i can play the game, mr. rickey," i said. the next few minutes were tough. branch rickey had to make absolutely sure that i knew what i would face. beanballs would be thrown at me. i would be called the kind of names which would hurt and infuriate any man. i would be physically attacked. could i take all of this and control my temper, remain steadfastly loyal to our ultimate aim? which is the central idea of this excerpt?
