   " I would prefer to fail with honor than win by cheating."


                                            Sophocles 
                                       

Reflection; I agree with this quote because I believe cheating is very unfair and wrong. For example, if you are taking a test, you do not understand a question on your test, it is better to try your best than copy your partner. Honor is so graceful we shouldn't lose it but trying to win unfairly.

                                                                  May 21, 2015

What is Memorial Day? 

Memorial Day is a day in which we show respect and appreciate those who passed away in the military of the U.S. 

What is the purpose of Memorial Day? 

       The purpose of Memorial Day is to dedicate a day to those who died fighting for our country. 

 When is it? 
          Memorial day is always on the last Monday of May. 

What are a few ways to show honor and respect on Memorial Day? 

One way to show honor  is to wear the United States colors to show that we also represent our country and we are proud that we are living here. Another way to show respect is to take flowers to a cemetery if you know someone who passed away in the military. You can also visit a family of someone who had a member of their family in the military. Making a prayer for someone who passed away is also a way to show respect. 
                          
                                  This May 2015, Memorial Day will land on May 25.
