Journey to Independence

By Pahdee At the start of the unit, I wasn't really independent. I forget things all the time and that made me suffer lots of consequences later on. I also had my mom wake me up in the morning instead of an alarm clock In the middle of the unit, we did the GRR which made me determined to be more independent. A few typical changes occurred: I got a new alarm clock, stopped forgetting things by leaving notes and sometimes reminders in my phone/ i-pod. I am now more independent than the start of the unit. I don't need my mom to wake me up and I also don't forget things even though I don't need a reminder. I sometimes think up new ways of remembering things like saying or writing it 10 times, make a little poem or joke about it.
