The Witch & The baby - Happiness is not physical perfection; it comes from the heart and one's positive emotions.

I'm Gay - One should always acknowledge another person's self with no questioning or discrimination.

Bringing Language Back to life - One should acknowledge the Creator of the world and be grateful that he is living in such "perfect" conditions.

Mutts - Humans are not the only beings suffering in this world; with animals and even plants, we should treat all beings equally and care for one another as if we are one kind.

Earthbound - There is nothing in nature that is wasted; it always cleans up after itself.

P.S. I shared my reading schedule with Vida, Jeffrey, and Marivi. Our plan is aim to read eights chapters per session, and complete seven pages of our novel approach booklet per session. If the work is an overload, we will adjust it accordingly.

The Witch & The baby - Happiness is not physical perfection; it comes from the heart and one's positive emotions.

I'm Gay - One should always acknowledge another person's self with no questioning or discrimination. I recorded this by writing it on novel approach booklet cover and on my "to-do" list.

Bringing Language Back to life - One should acknowledge the Creator of the world and be grateful that he is living in such "perfect" conditions.

Mutts - Humans are not the only beings suffering in this world; with animals and even plants, we should treat all beings equally and care for one another as if we are one kind.

The Witch & The baby - Happiness comes from ones heart, not from external beauty.
I'm Gay - You should always accept people for who they are, even if their sexuality or views don't match your own.
Bringing Language Back to life - We should thank the world for what it gives us.
Mutts - Sometimes people aren't the only refugees, even dogs can suffer the same harsh conditions that some humans do.
Earthbound - Nature never wastes anything, it's always able to find a purpose for it.

@Ryan- Double check the success criteria:)

The Witch & The Baby: Beauty isn't everything. It's what's in your heart that matters.

I'm Gay: The people who love you will always accept you for who you are.

Mutts: Not only humans need homes. Dogs also deserve to have a home.

Earthbound: Every living creature is a part of the earth.

Bring Language Back To Life: It is important to preserve a dying language because saving a language means saving the culture, tradition, and value of a particular group of people.

P.S. I shared my book club reading schedule with Bob and Kim. We decided to read 3 chapters per session, but we'll read 5 chapters in the last session. We're completing 3 pages of the novel approach booklet each session.

P.P.S. I put the due dates in my family calendars, both on paper and in my parents' phones.

In witch and the baby film, the big idea of this video it is does not matter what you looks like outside. But, it is important that your inside it must be kind and being good feeling. If your outside doesn’t look good, it won’t affect other people. In the other hand, if your inside feeling is bad and that will affect whole things of your personality of yourself. So, we should always make our inside good and not suppose to make yourself outside look like!

PS: I shared my my novel approach reading/ worksheet schedule with my oldest sisters, I used sticky notes to remind myself what pages do I need to read and what pages do I need to complete on the worksheet. Lastly, write the due dates in front of my worksheet.
