Things that matter to me, my friends matter to me because they are always there when I need help or to share funny stories or just have some fun like play football or basketball. Another thing is my dogs they are the best dogs in the world because they will play sleep and do tricks with you and they will always protect you from a Stanger too. And the last thing that matters to me is my family because they will always support me in a sport or in school.

There are many things that matter to me, but I can only control so many of them. I should focus on things I can control and that matter to me. One of those things is my grades. My grades are the basis for a good life. Without good grades, you won’t get into a good college, which leads to not having a good job, and a good job is a necessity for a successful life. If I focus on my grades and try hard, I will be a better student. Something else that that I should focus on is managing my time better and prioritizing. If I do so, I will get all my work done, and will hopefully have spare time to socialize with my friends. This will make me a better friend. The last thing I should focus on is listening to my parents. I know my parents are always saying things for my own good and will never hurt me. If I listen to what they have to say, I will be a better person, and a better family member.

First, my grades, I care about my grades and if I care about my grades, it will help me become a better scholar, because I can learn, and I can help out my mom for the fact that she needs my help with her work at home which requires math a lot of the times. Next, my handwriting, I have multiple teachers who say I write to small, if I improve this spot, I might be understood more. Last but not least, I want to read more, I feel that it helps me with my writing grades, by teaching me grammar, and a reader itself. These are things I would like to focus on more.

Something that matters to me as a student is that I stay organized. I can control this by putting my things back were they are supposed to go, not just shoved anywhere. Also I can bring home things that I need to study and then put them back in my backpack, so that when I’m done so that I can bring them back to school.

One thing that matters to me is ejection because I want to be an athlete. I can control that by paying more attention in class. I can also control my behavior by listening and following directions. The last thing that matters to me is my friends. I can control this by being kinder to everyone around me…

Things that I can control and matter to me a lot are my actions. These are important to me because it affects people if I do something. Another thing that is important to me is what I say because I can control what I say. Whether I say something nice or mean I can control it. Lastly I can control my emotions because I have all control of my body.

Basketball and grades and behavior so that what matters to me. Basketball is hard working not easy but it is so much fun to play. Grades are also in important. It helps you get into a good school. Behavior is important if you are nice to a friend they will treat you good.

My grades matter to me the most as a student. I can control them by studying the study guides, making sure I ask questions, and making sure that I understand what the lesson is about. I can also control them by focusing on my homework and my teachers. I have to do first things first and always get my homework done because homework counts as a grade. I like getting good grade because you can get into a better collage and get a better job.

My grades matter to me. I can control that by studying and doing well in school. If I pay attention and study very well I will get good grades and do well. If I do this for the rest of my life I will not be bad at life

The three things that I can control and that matter to me a lot are my actions, how I perform in school, and everything that I say.

The three things I should focus more in life is, grades, caring for family and friends, and taking care of my behavior. I need to be responsible for my grades, when I mean responsible I mean paying attention while the teacher are someone is talking studying for upcoming tests . Also to mention completing assignments like homework then I will get better grades in my fifth grade tests.
