For the past couple of days we were making chains and testing how strong they are. To make our chain we used pipe cleaners rubber bands and string to hold it all together. Me (Collin) and Hannah N were partners for this assignment and our team name was “Sah Dood.” We had a list of materials that we could use and we only used half of our options but I think we could have used more. I feel like we made a decent chain. We weren’t allowed to research anything on good chains.

Colossians 3:17

And whatever you do whether in word or deed do it all in the name of the lord jesus giving thanks to God the father through him

 

     Selfless

When I think of selfless I think of God because he sent his only sun to die for our sins and that would be very hard. At the end of 7th grade we went to the church across the street. The teachers split us up into groups and we had to all look through the bible and find different verses. I can apply this theme to my Life as an 8th grader at Zeeland Christian School and to my life in the community and in the world.

 

This year’s theme verse can apply to my life here at Zeeland Christian School. Being a 8th grader at Zeeland Christian there are many different ways I could be selfless. Once everyone leaves the commons I could go help pick up and put the chairs and wheely things. When class is done I could ask the teachers if they need help stacking chairs or helping clean up the floors. If a teacher needed help at the end of the day or during the day I could see if they needed me to take papers to other teachers. If the whiteboards are getting dirty I could clean them. Once lunch is done i could get a paper towel and wipe them up and put all the chairs back to the desk’s.

 

This Year’s theme also applies to my life outside of school. To be selfless in my community I could go around my neighborhood picking up trash. (if there is any). I could also go downtown Zeeland and pick up trash. I could mow my neighbor’s lawns for free if they need help. A way I could be selfless is Holding doors open for people walking in.

 

When I think of selfless I think of God because he sent his only sun to die for our sins and that would be very hard. Being selfless is very hard to do because everyone wants to have stuff to themselves and not share and I think we need to try and do better at that. Being a 8th grader at Zeeland Christian is a big role because the littler kids all look up to you. That is was I think selfless mean to me
