We invite you to reflect on the person you look up to the most. Who is your personal role model, and why do they inspire you?
Reflecting on Personal Role Models: Your Task

Make sure to write a thoughtful response that fully answers the question: “Who do you look up to the most and why?” Your response should be at least three sentences long and include details or examples to clearly explain your ideas. Once you’ve posted your comment, read through your classmates’ responses and reply to at least three of them. When replying, focus on adding to the conversation, agreeing or disagreeing respectfully, and making connections to your own thoughts about personal role models.
