Being my authentic self means I’m free to express myself with art. I’m able to express my authentic self through sculpting clay in my room. I like making miniature toys and furniture like couches for my dolls. Some challenges to being my authentic self are that I don’t get to sculpt as often as I’d like. Another challenge is that I can’t make a mess with clay in my room in Brooklyn so I can only make sculptures in my house in Rockaway. One thing that I can work on is having more confidence in myself and my abilities.
ReplyDeleteI like how you really told everyone what you do
DeleteI agree because if you are controlled you are not your authentic self, you are being someone else that someone is forcing you to be.
DeleteI like how you expressed your feeling.
DeleteI think that if your best friend is doing something bad then he says you want to do the same you should say i don't think that is good and i don't like it at all.I think that you should make people stop being mean to you because it will be very bad.
ReplyDeletei defiantly agree and if somebody ids being mean to you you should not be their friend.
DeleteQ:What does being your authentic self mean to you? I think being your authentic means being yourself and not letting people control you life because if you do that then your friend will feel like that they could boss you around and that your their puppet!
ReplyDeleteQ:How are you able to your authentic in your own life?How I be my authentic self in my own life is I am weird and sometimes I like to write how my day went and I love math and I love books about sea animals and I don't like tacos which is weird for people because people love tacos but I don't!
Q:What are the challenges that make being your authentic self difficult?Sometimes people think I'm bragging when I'm telling them about my talent and people think I'm popular and fact but I'm more like wearing sneakers and pants!
Q:What things can you work on in your own life to be even more authentic and the best version of yourself?
I could be more myself because I feel like people will make fun of my real personality if show my real self and I could wear more my style clothes because I feel like people won't like what I look like but I ill start being more myself!
Thats my Authentic self
Those are really,really good answers.
DeleteBeing my authentic self means for example if someone says What kind of music do you like and they say rap, I could be embarrassed because I like jazz, then I might say rap. But what I would do in real life is I would say jazz.
ReplyDeleteWhen I'm tired of playing video games with Teddy, I say this is getting boring can we stop. Teddy usually says sure but if he ever says no, I would say we can play 5 more minutes of video games and then play something else.
Sometimes, I get embarrassed say in math. Sometimes I don't know it and it makes me really want to look at someone else's page and write their answer down but I don't because that would be cheating and I do not cheat.
To be the best version of myself, I could play less video games so I have more time to be creative and build things.
How I am able to be a authentic self is first treat people nicely and if somebody makes fun of me then I ignore and walk away and be there friend because they don't like what I like or something.If somebody makes fun of me and doesn't like what I like and they judge me by that then there not nice so thats how you should be an authentic self.
ReplyDeletebeing an authentic self means to me is be nice and be a leader not a follower and just be yourself it means to be yourself
What challenges it is to be an authentic self diffiuclt is because maybe theres a really popular kid in school and you want to be friends with them and they like curtain things or people and you try to hangout with them and they don't like what you like and let's say that she loves chips and you don't and then you eat them that's not being an authentic self So it's kind of difficult.
things you can work on on being more authentic is to be brave speak up for yourself and you don't have to like things every body likes
Authentic self
ReplyDeleteBy Josh Liu
Being my Authentic self means to me that you should be who you are and to not be a follower.
It means that to me because
it is not comfortable to be someone you are not.
You are able to be your Authentic self in your own life by liking what you like and doing what you think is right.
For example, if someone brought a toy to school and you want to get it because they are a popular kid, then, after you get it, they have a new toy and say “Why do you still have that toy?It’s a baby toy”, or something like that.
The challenges that make being your Authentic self difficult are :
Inappropriate talk by friend
Peer pressure
A few things I can work on to be the best version of myself is to listen better and
put effort into everything I do.
This was written by Joshua Liu.
To clarify my second paragraph, don't copy someone because them seem cool or popular.
DeleteBeing your authentic self means doing what you think is right.For example: when your best friends like classical music and you like jazz music you feel like you should be liking classical music instead of jazz.If you were your authentic self you would stick with jazz and if your not your authentic self you would give in to classical.
ReplyDeleteI’m able to be my authentic self by not following my friends when they do something naughty.When they steal their little sisters toys and hide them on purpose.
The challenges of being your authentic self are that you could lose friends because you disobey them. (but are they really friendS?)
I can work on not being self conscious because that leads to not being your authentic self.
Being myself mean to me that if your friend
ReplyDeletehave a toy and you want it ,than you finally get it but you see something on the
box saying "This toy is very dangerous"than
you might HURT yourself really bad so never change .How you
could be your authentic self is that the people around you let you be yourself.the
challenge for me is that I don't make that
much friends because of who I am.What I could work on is loving myself.
It means having free will.Like choosing where you sit instead of being forced to sit with your friends.
ReplyDeleteI’m can be my authentic self when all my friends play one game and I don’t want to play even though all my friends are playing it so I don’t play it.
The challenges of being your authentic self are not having work done for you (for cheaters.),and losing friends.
I can work on not doing what my friends are doing even if I don’t want to do it.
good example on the first paragraph
DeleteBeing my authentic self mean being who I am. This not trying to be someone that I am not. This also means to be true to myself and accepting who I really am.i am able to be my authentic self in my own life by the people who are around me just accepting me for who I am. For example, I am shy and slow very quiet which to me is sort of a problem because other use it as a reason to disrespect me. The challenges that I face with being my authentic self is not being able to make friends easily or being bullied AND NOT respected by my peers.the things in my own life that I can work on is to just to love myself a little more and not caring how different I am.
ReplyDeleteBeing authentic mean to me that if your friend likes to draw and you think that it is not right for you do not be someone else and be you self.
ReplyDelete2.I am able to authentic myself by not following friends that are doing something very noddy to others and when they take someones toy .
3.The challenges of being your authentic self is that you are mostly going to lose friend because you are not kind of that student.
4.I can try to work on not to be self conscious or that will lead you to not be your authentic that you want.
Being my authentic self means - if I go to school and every girl wears pink and wears their hair in braids and wears high stockings and I come in wearing a black t-shirt, purple pants, and sneakers with my hair in a ponytail then I would be my authentic self because i am standing apart from the crowd instead of trying to blend in with everyone else.
ReplyDeleteI remain my authentic self because I have my own fashion thoughts instead of just copying what other people are doing. I don't try to copy other people. I never try to change who I am to make someone else happy.
A challenge to being true to my authentic self is that sometimes when I am being my authentic self around my friends, they say they are not going to be my friend anymore. Like sometimes I don't mind getting sweaty and don't care about my looks so much and sometimes some people might not want to play with me because of that.
I think I can start speaking up more and start trying to make more relationships with people because I want to be their friend not because they are going to give me something. I can try to make true friends.
To be your authentic self means your a leader and not a follower.You can actually be your authentic self....Yourself!You can do that by not being friends with people that push you to be something your not and you can do that by saying no! To the friend that is trying to push you.Being your authentic self is kind of hard.You want me to tell you?I will take that as a yes,well it's hard because what if you want to be like your friend?Maybe your scared to tell the truth.MAYBE your probably scared of that JERK because he's BUFF and STRONG and he might KICK you in the FACE!!!!!!!!Ok But you can't be afraid to stand up.But to be even better being your authentic self is to be more comfortable to tell the WORLD what you like and I mean everything you like.Thats some ways I think about being your authentic self oh and this is Val have a good day.
ReplyDeleteMy authentic self means that if someone offers to give me answers to a math problem, I deny it. I think if people pay attention to themselves, this wouldn’t happen. Some things that make being yourself hard is that people can put you under peer pressure easily. One time a group of kids asked me if I wanted something, a snack that I didn’t like. I got under peer pressure easily, and ate the snack anyway.Being your authentic self means that you should be yourself even if people don’t think if you as cool. Just always be yourself.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I didn't talk, I don't know what authentic self means but I know the definition of authentic. Authentic means "true" and self is self so that means "true self". They were first introduced into psychoanalysis in 1960 by D. W. Winnicott. Like your own life, Fourth Grade Rats has some authentic self. Suds has 99.3% peer pressure and 85.6% authentic self. Everyone from around the world only has 32.6% authentic selves. For another example like when you want a mansion and everyone else gets either a manor or a pretty mansion beside a lake. You want to visit all of your friends' houses. But when you knock on anybody's door, they said "GET OUT!!!". That’s authentic self. You should be a true self. When you are isolated or solo, you should believe and have confidence in yourself.
ReplyDeleteTo be your authentic self means to be yourself and not to be a leader and not a follower.
ReplyDeleteand to be yourself. The ways you can do that are if somebody wants you to do something that is wrong and it does not feel right to you you should not do that and instead say no and just walk away from them. But if you at a playdate with them then first you should say can we do something else and if they don’t want to then call your parents and they will pick you up from that person's house. Also if somebody else for example wants to do tigers and then right away you say you want to do tigers and you don’t even like tigers but the only reason somebody else said it that it is being a follower and the better thing to do would be to think of something else. Yes, but if you also wanted to do tigers before that person said it and you also say tigers that is all right.
The reason people don’t want to be their authentic self is because they think their friends won’t like them for example if you like rock and they don’t you can still be friends but if they are mean to you because you like rock and they don’t then you should not be their friend.
Also you should never ever under no circumstances should you not be your self.
My authentic self is to be kind to each other and not to follow other bad people and not to be bad.For example if someone has chips and they bribe u to be there friend say no because they just want to boss u around and stuff. I’m really a nice kid but I acted like a kid who does not care about anything and talks back. I really want to stay friends with someone but they said I have to be like not good to be friends with them. When I see a lot of drama I just walk away from it and I don’t walk two wards it��������
ReplyDeleteBeing your Authentic self means to be your self and to not be follower.If you are your authentic self you wont be doing what other kids do and you would be doing what YOU like to do.Say you go to a birthday party and you see your friends doing something you Reeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaly hate and you don't want stay at the birthday party anymore.You go to there parents and say "I don't like what your kid is doing I want to leave!"so you leave.If you did that you would be very authentic.
ReplyDeleteIt means yo me like getting into peer pressure and like do this do that.
ReplyDeleteTo be yourself and don't do any thing somebody tells you yo do like for ex:wear a skirt and purple top tomorrow and then the girl says but i don't want to wear that and then she's/he's like well your gonna and the next day they come to school looking really sad.
Other people don't like you and doesn't want to be your friend.and spread rumors about you and some people are really sensitive and they fell sad every day.
Don't listen to the other people and just be your self and don't follow other people.
I think being your authentic self means doing what you want and not always going with the majority.I think things that make it difficult are stuff like peer pressure. For example if you buy new red sneakers and you really like them and then some kid comes to school wearing green sneakers and that becomes the big fashion and everybody is wearing green sneakers and people say stuff like, "you're wearing red shoes? not green shoes? that's like so last year," or whatever, if you just gave in and just bought new green sneakers, that wouldn't be your authentic self. But if you just stood up and said, "I like my red sneakers," then you would be your authentic self. I think in my own life I can be more like my authentic self by just not caring if people make fun of me for what I like.

ReplyDeleteBeing my authentic self means to be a leader not a follower and not doing what other people tell me to do.
ReplyDeleteIn my own life I am able to be my authentic self by speaking up for myself. For example, one of my friends told me I could copy off of their paper but I said no because it would have been cheating and I would not learn anything if I didn't do it by myself.
The challenges that make being my authentic self difficult are peer pressure and being judged by people. For example, once I was at school and someone told me to say something but I said no because I knew it was wrong.
Some things I can work on to be more authentic are concentrating on my surroundings and not judging people before I get to know them well.
My Authentic self means to be nice and to be shy because when I go on stage or share something that has a lot of people looking at me I get really shy but I try not to act shy. I am nice because sometimes I hold the door for people. But I hold the door when there is like 1 or 2 or 3 people but rarely for a whole class or classes. Like when I was going down to the first floor I held the door for someone at the first floor. I am nice because on my birthday I saved a cupcake for Aliya but she did not want it so I gave it to my friend who was there because Aliya wanted her to come to my birthday party. I also gave Aliya 5 packs of pokemon cards she really wanted that I got for my birthday. I am shy because in kindergarten on the first day of school I did not want to leave my mom to go to school and I am embarrassed writing this right now. The challenge of my authentic self is: talking or dancing or doing anything in front of a lot of people and that is really the only challenge I can think of. My best version is to be better at writing and be less shy.
ReplyDeletewhen I most feel like my authentic self is when I'm confident and brave. For example I was pick to introduce my class for our Native American. I had to speak in front of a lot of people on stage I was a bit nervous but then I felt brave ad confident and we ready to speak. I was very proud of myself and that made my feel more confident. Some thing I want to do to be my better authentic self is learn to be more sure of myself by myself sometime I look for my mom and dad to help me feel confident but I want to feel brave and confident even if there are not able to be with me.
