Parent/Student Agreements
I think I am responsible enough to take it home and bring it back because I use my mom's laptop at home, and I am very careful with it. Last year we had iPads, and as soon as I got home, I charged my school iPad.
As I said, last year I always charged my iPad as soon as I got home. It's a thing for me that I have to save as much battery as I can, and when I could, I always tried to make it 100%. I will charge it on my desk as soon as I can. I will get in the door, and as soon as I start homework, I will plug it in to charge.

Be Healthy With Electronics
When my family and I were driving around America this summer I had nothing to do. I had played on my iPad and watched movies the whole time, but once we got to Florida I noticed that I had spent too much time on electronics. I had felt light headed, dizzy, and I couldn’t see clearly. In boot camp, I found out that it is because I hadn’t been balancing using computers and staying healthy. At the time I didn’t know it, but now I realize that you have to balance using electronics, and doing things that don’t involve screens. When I use electronics now I know that I should also take a break from screens to stay physically fit.
What I have experienced over the summer has truly changed my whole point of view on electronic devices. I discovered that even if things with screens can help you, it can still affect you for the rest of your life. This will definitely change my future because I won’t be on electronic devices all day for the rest of my life. I will be out in the world having fun with friends and family. I know that it might be hard for you to take breaks every once and a while, but there are plenty of fun things to do. You could play a board game, ride a bike, do a craft, or even just go for a walk. I hope that you will become someone who grew up without electronics, I hope you become an amazing person without all that stuff. Don’t you want to be that person?

About Me 2015
Caitlin is a girl who loves her family and school. She goes to an international school on an island. She likes reading but only when she is super bored and has to read. Same for writing. She writes at school, and only at home if she has a really great idea. She is more of a math person. Caitlin really likes to read fantasy and nonfiction books. She loves reading fantasy because it takes her to magical world, and she loves nonfiction because she learns something new every time she reads nonfiction books. She writes nonfiction, fantasy, personal narratives, and mysteries, but Caitlin writes nonfiction the best. She gets the concept that you’re trying to teach the readers about the topic, while giving them fun facts. Caitlin finds a way to learn about a topic, and then she makes it fun with more detail and a little humor, and then she types it all out and then she checks it and publishes it. She knows that it may never be perfect, but she still tries. She always tries to do her best. Caitlin will always try. If she can, she never gives up.
When Caitlin is not writing at home or at school, you will find her with her family, having fun. On the weekend, when she is not having fun with her family, once in a while you will find her at a swim meet.
She first picked up writing at school. She learned how to get ideas, and since that she always had ideas. When she thought hey were good, she typed them out. She started this way, but at school they started helping her to make her stories stronger. Now she writes at school and finds it fun. She will always have ideas, and she will always have fun.

Laptop Care
The purpose for this poster, is to make sure that wherever you go, you never should pack your bag so that your laptop is squished, it should always be free, the opposite of an MRT trip.
