getting along.

I was just on a cool website that gives advice on how to get along. It seems like it should be for little kids, but it gives really good advice. It says that when you get in a fight with somebody you have three things you can do. There is a loud choice that involves screaming and fighting. There was a soft choice as well, on that you would just walk away. There was also a think and share choice. If you pick that choice you talk to the person that you are having a conflict with, and share feelings and tell each other why you called each other what you did. Personally I think that the think and share choice would be the best. i think that anybody could benefit from this website, regardless of age.

MHS freshman football team

As part of team 3 I am excited to be blogging this year on the topic of co-existence. Football at Moline High School is really fun. We have at least 60 kids on our team. We had our first game last weekend against bettendorf. We didn't play at our highest potential, and Bettendorf did, and so we suffered a lose in our first high school game. Our next game is against Geneseo. Since we were held to just 7 points our last game, we are hoping to put at least 40 points on the board and have a huge win.
