Well-Being

   To be a healthy person you need to eat well, exercise and keep your mind healthy.  Exercise, eating well and keeping your mind healthy are all connected.  Keeping good mental health includes mind exercises, reading your Bible, praying and keeping a good perspective.  Some things that benefit physical health are staying away from junky and sugary foods, eating the main food groups, drinking water and exercising.  They are all connected because they all help benefit your boy so you can stay healthy. Some thing that do not benefit your health are drugs, alcohol and junk food.
   You can make good choices by saying "No" when someone offers you drugs and alcohol and staying away from junk food.  You should try and exercise at least 30min. a day.  

Refugees

My current Social Studies project is on Refugees.  A helpful book that I read during my project planning is called, "World Issues, Refugees" by Clive Gifford.  This book has personal stories, key debates and facts.  One thing I learned from this book is that some famous composers were refugees as well as Albert Einstein.  Another thing I learned is that many people try to travel illegally to another country to gain safety from war.  In that case the person usually gets sent to court or to jail.  I will share more in my report that is due at the end of the month.
