Some of the activities that George is active in is martial arts. I do think that activities can keep teenagers out of trouble. It gives teenagers the time to enjoy what they are doing. It gives them the chance to think of the future. Activities Occupies the teenagers time. I did belong to a basketball group like that when I was little, but when I got into high school, I got involved in after school activities.
ReplyDeleteGeorge joins many activities including the Shakespeare Club, and the police athletic club in elementary. And in high school, hejoined baseball. I agree that school activities help teens stay away from the streets. They are fun and safe. I don't join activities but i do join in sports.

ReplyDeleteSome groups that George joined during high school was the Shakespeare Group and Martial Arts lessions. Do I agree or disagree that activities and athletics can keep teenages off the streets? Well I do agree but I believe it keeps not just teenages off the streets but almost every other age group. I can say this cause putting in hard work at football practice or going to the gym makes me not feel like going back out. lol

ReplyDeleteThe activities that George did, for example, are martial arts. I, personally, believe that activities do keep teenagers off the streets. Some of the reasons are that if your committed to something then you have to be there and if you have something to occupy your time it will keep you out of trouble. I do belong to sports groups and other extra corricular activities: examples are basketball, soccer, etc.
ReplyDeleteGeorge joined the martial arts club and te Shakespeare club to keep him out of trouble. I do think that activity's that you jooin in school keeps you out of trouble because it keeps you occupied and out of trouble, and it's better for you to be doing something in school rather than be getting in trouble outside of school.
ReplyDeleteGeorge, I belive found a very good way to try nd keep himself out of trouble which was joinin the Shakespeare nd arts club. I think that it was a good way to try nd stay out of trouble because instead of being out on the streets, he was spending most of his time in school.

Most of the time that causes them to get into trouble because there with the wrong crowd . An after school activity keeps you supervised, you learn new things, and have fun.
ReplyDeleteGeorge did a few activities to keep him out of trouble. One of them was a martial arts class. This could help him because instead of fighting on the streets you can actually come here to learn a skill in a productive matter. Another one was the Shakespere club.Like George i did do the drama club which allowed me to express myself.
ReplyDeleteGeorge joins many groups including Shakespeare and martial arts. i do beleive that extra curricular actives can help teens stay off the streets.

ReplyDeleteSome of the activities George was involved in were things like his school's baseball team, and the Shakespeare. I do think these type of programs are beneficial for inner city kids that live in neighborhoods with negative influences, because it keeps them away from the things that can get them into trouble. Programs like this also put kids around better influences that can keep them on the right track, and keeps them occupied so they have something that can look forward to doing that is progressive. I can relate to this because I play a lot of sports as extra curricular activities
ReplyDeleteHe played baseball for his highschool and also joined the Shakespeare club. I think these programs
ReplyDeleteare helpful for keeping teens out of trouble because they give them something to do so they stay out of trouble on the streets and stuff. Im not currently involved in any of these programs.

Another club that he joined was the Police Athletic League in both elementary and junior high. A third activity he did was play basketball in highschool. Yes, I do believe that joining clubs and doing activities keeps kids off the streets and away from bad people because it keeps them busy and focused onto that one thing like basketball or chess. Clubs that I've joined at Prep Charter that keeps me away from the streets are ping pong, dance class, and rarely, chess.

I am apart of a Student Council and sometimes i have to stay after school and i strongly believe that clubs like that help me stay out of trouble.

ReplyDeleteGeorge was involved in the Shakespeare Club in elementary school. In future time he joined the Police Athletic League and Baseball in junior high. These activities would help most people if not all to stay out of troubles in the street. Activities can keep you from getting in trouble because at times you have a coach or teacher to help you so you don't regret ever joining that club. It would definitely help me out of trouble because there are many different kinds of activities you can join so it would keep you busy for a while and you might even enjoy it by getting yourself into it.
ReplyDeleteThe best thing for a child or basically any person that has spare time on their hands would be to keep themselves busy and find things to do. We all need to keep our minds working because if not then our minds will become bored, and as the old saying goes "idle hands are the devil's workshop." It is in one's nature to do things they feel curious about once they are bored, so i do believe in the theory that it is best to keep yourselves busy with activities and/or sports.
ReplyDeleteIn order to stay out of trouble, George said he had participated in the Shakespeare Club, Police Athletic League, and baseball throughout his school years. I personally agree that activities and athletics can keep teenagers off the streets because it keeps you busy and gives you an opportunity to do something positive in your spare time. Keeping yourself occupied in after school activities and meeting other students who shared the same interest is a whole lot better and beneficial than getting in trouble from the streets. I remember when I was younger, my teacher would often tell my class that “A busy mind is a step to success.” There are many activities in my school that I have joined such as table tennis, the chess club, and the music club in order to occupy my time.

Yes, I do agree that such activities are able to keep adolescences away from trouble. As opposed to George, I currently do not belong to any group such as those. There are presently no clubs that actually spark any interests or catches my attention.

The clubs that George is involved in what he and his fellow classmates called "The Shakespeare club" he alsohad martial arts, the police athletic league and base ball.

ReplyDeleteYes I do believe tht sports and extracurricular activities keeps children off the streets and focused on good things. It keeps their time occupied and gives them good energy to feed off of. Also, it introduces them to teenagers who are like themselves and have the same morals in life which keeps them from turning to the "foolish kids" who have nothing better to do than start or cause chaos. I myself have belonged to a couple of extra curricular activities before and though I wasn't a child who needed to be taught to stay on the right path it still helped me.

Living in a bad neighborhood, the activities also provided the safe environment where he could meet others with the same interests. I agree that activities and athletics keeps teenagers off the street. Teens are able to improve their self-esteem and make new friends who avoids the negativity that surrounds them. I am currently not in any group or club.
ReplyDeleteBy joining various amounts of different groups such as the Shakespeare Club, baseball team, and many other different activities that he did together with Rameck and Sam, George has avoided many troubles that he could've gotten into if his friends weren't there to support him. Joining clubs like these really can help many teenagers stay out of trouble because when your mind is too occupied on doing something specific, you'll forget all about doing other things that could've gotten you in serious trouble. I, myself, am in a sports club; table tennis to be exact, and by staying after school for tutoring and then going to play table tennis, I have used up time to do things that I feel are important to me, and not things that I could've regretted doing.
ReplyDeleteMany school activities that kept George out of trouble were the Shakespeare Club, Police Athletic League, and the baseball team.

ReplyDeleteGeorge was involved in several activities as he was growing up. One of the activities was a martial arts class. I Dont agree being in a martial arts class would keep people out of trouble because maybe someone in the class would want to try a deadly move on someone outside of the class.
