“In life as in football, you won’t go far, unless you know where goalposts are”

Arnold h. Glasgow

 

What I think this quote means is that you always got to have your head up high, look forward and never look back. 

History of Basketball

History of Basketball

Who Invented Basketball? James Naismith

Where? Springfield Massachusetts in the United States

When? 1891

How? He invited the game for his class using a peach basket and a soccer style ball.

Why? To condition young athletes during the winter

What were the circumstances at the beginning? That some players felt that the game shouldn’t ball call “Naismith game” but more with the name that has ball and basket.  So they ended up calling the game basketball.

What was it like at the start? There was only 13 rules in the beginning, it was 9 vs 9 and later on they cut the bottom of the peach basket so the ball can go thru.

How is basketball different today than when it first started? What’s different in today basketball is that there are more rules, the basket has a net and there can only be 5 players on the court for each team.

Student Successes Statement

A choice: Poverty or Prosperity

“I hated poverty, Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it.”

What I think about this quote is that he is right about; it’s up to a person to decide if they want poverty or not. Also how hard they need to work and go for it. 

Student Success Statement, Thomas S. Monson

Student Success Statement

Never because,

“You can’t be right by doing wrong; you can’t be wrong by doing right.”

 

Thomas S. Monson

What the quote means is that if you do something wrong to earn something it’s not really worth it in the end. Also if you’re doing it right and without anything being wrong there’s no way you can fail.
