  7. Passcode: Kerfuffle Monday's Exit ticket  Steps to Positivity in the Classroom  Success after high school depends on many things, but one of the most important is having a positive attitude. There are many ways to develop a positive outlook. You can try using encouraging self-talk to motivate yourself. For example, if you tell yourself that you are smart and can be successful, you are more likely to do well in your classes. Helping others to be successful is also a way of maintaining a positive attitude. When you see that college is not a competition, you will see success come to you and those who work closely with you. Finally, you can develop a positive attitude by viewing difficult situations as opportunities to grow. For example, if you are struggling in a class because the material is challenging, don't let yourself feel down about it. Instead, take action! Visit with your professor or form a study group. Getting help will enable you to learn the material and therefore do better in your class. By using encouraging self-talk, helping others, and utilizing difficult moments as an opportunity to grow, you will have the optimistic outlook that will enable you to succeed in college—and in life!  What steps are you going to take?  Kindness habit challenge...​ make an effort not to complain the rest of the day

  24. Ch. 1 #1 – p. 18 • Why has Latin influenced English vocabulary much more than Greek has? • Before around 1500 CE there was little direct contact between the Greek and English languages. Greek was not widely known in England or even Western Europe. Latin, however, has influenced English in several ways. Indirectly it has influenced English through the languages that developed from Latin (the Romance languages, mainly French, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese). Directly it has influenced it through contact between Romans and the Germanic tribes that settled in southern Britain and through the Christian church and scholarship, for both of which Latin was the official language. 

  25. Passcode: loquacious • The days of the week were named after Norse gods and giant objects in the sky.​​ • These names come to us originally from the Greeks and Romans, who named the days of the week after their gods.​​ • The Anglo-Saxons, who invaded Britain hundreds of years ago, adopted this idea but substituted their own gods. The English language has inherited and changed those names a bit, but the ones we use today resemble those names.​​ • ​ • Here's how:​​ • Sunday: Sun's Day. The Sun gave people light and warmth every day. They decided to name the first (or last) day of the week after the Sun.​​ • Monday: Moon's Day. The Moon was thought to be very important in the lives of people and their crops.​​ • Tuesday: Tiw's Day. Tiw, or Tyr, was a Norse god known for his sense of justice.​​ • Wednesday: Woden's Day. Woden, or Odin, was a Norse god who was one of the most powerful of them all.​​ • Thursday: Thor's Day. Thor was a Norse god who wielded a giant hammer.​​ • Friday: Frigg's Day. Frigg was a Norse god equal in power to Odin.​​ • Saturday: Seater's Day or Saturn's Day.
