I think that Carlos learned a lot of good life lessons from his mentor. Personally i don't have a adult figure that I look up too. Being in chess, and being with his mentor really helped him stay out of trouble.The article has a lot of really good morals. Someone needing help with life,friends,and family problem could really use a mentor like Chia. I have a hobby to keep me from the bad crowd that i used to hang out with. I sing so i joined a choir. It helps me relive stress. I also dance im on a church funded dance team. This hobbies really help take me away from all the extra stress so i can definitley feel where carlos is coming from.
Good use of details from the story to make connections to your own life. Dance and choir are AWESOME extra curricular activities to keep you on track towards your goals! I hope you are able to join our school choir!
