2.My name is Sean Walters and I'm a freshman at Loveland High School. My favorite thing to do is play soccer. Right now I'm on the U15 Club United team. During the fall season I played for Loveland High. We had a very good season with a record of 10-2-2 with 12 shutouts in a row. I was a swinger for Loveland, which means I got to play on Varsity and JV. Even though I didn't get to play as much as I wanted, I was just happy to be on such a talented team with so many great seniors to teach me the game. Besides soccer I also enjoy hanging out with friends, going to the movies, and learning to drive. 

    3.One of the most important lessons that I learned during Geometry in Construction is how to work as part of a team. Before this class I always wanted to get all the work done by myself and not include anyone else in the project. Throughout the year I've learned to trust all my partners and have realized that having the help of others can make the project easier. I know this lesson will help me throughout the rest of my years in school as well as into my career. I will always need the help of others whether it be learning from them or working along side them to reach a common goal.
    Another lesson that I've learned in this class is to never give up on a project. There were many times during the begging of the year when I wanted to give up on building a wall or a problem in math because it didn't come easy like I was use to. As the year went on I realized that giving up will get me nowhere and I needed to work harder and except that this class would be a challenge. Finally with a lot of practice and help from Burke and Larson I began to understand both sides of Geometry in Construction. This lesson will definitely helped me in the future because I will have many difficult challenges, such as the ACT's, collage, and job interviews that I can't give up on.

    4. I want Robert and Carrie to know how much i enjoyed helping them build their house. It honestly didn't seem like work most of the time because it was so much fun and I got to do it alongside many of my friends. I will never forget this experience not only because it helped me learn how to work as part of a group or to never give up but also because I hope to pursue a job in architecture and this year was a great starting point for my goal. Hopefully if I run into you someday I will have achieved my dream job and will have you to thank for it.
