Participating is when you engage with others as a team. I am in Girl Scouts, Jiu-Jitsu, and running. This picture represents three parts of my life. I have participated In Girl Scouts for five years. I learned how to interact with other people, be a part of a team, help others, and sell items (cookies). While learning these life lessons, I have been on the ice at a hockey game and been in a talent show. I am also in Jiu Jitsu. I’ve been participating for two years and have learned never to give up, commit even when it is challenging, and how to defend myself. I have competed in a tournament, and I hope to continue to do so. Lastly, I have participated in running for almost my whole life. I have learned just to keep going and keep up stamina. I’ve been involved in runs at school, various fundraisers, school P.E., and just for fun. Participation isn’t just about winning, it’s about trying something new and having fun!
