Many athletes and celebrities fall into the category of role models, regardless if they choose to be or not and I find this to be an extremely interesting topic. Watch the Lebron James commercial below and answer the following questions:
1. Do you think that celebrities/athletes make good role models?
2. Do you look up to any celebrities/athletes? If so, tell me why. If not, tell me why. :-)
3. Do you think they should assume the responsibility of acting as a role model to young kids, regardless if they want to or not?
*cough..cough* Don't forget to put the question in your answer! :-)
Once you have posted your response, read the responses posted by your peers and reply thoughtfully to at least two other students. Compliment strong points, make connections, ask questions and build on ideas shared!
Mr. Boettger :-)
- I am really looking forward to reading your responses and opinions on this one.

I think celebrities are good role modles but i do not look up to one because what i want to do does not have a celebrity. I think celebrities should chose wether kids look up to them because it is thier life.
What's with the "blah blah blah"? $:

I can not say yes or no to that question because you could have a role model and than that person starts to smoke and gets lung cancer. So is that person still your role model not to me maybe you.
ReplyDeleteBut there are many celeberities or atheletes that do nothing disrespectful to them selves. I kind of do look up to some people such as Sydney Crosby because he lives a clean lifestyle.I think that if they do not want to be a role model than it dose not matter to me but it will probably change the way they live their life.

DeleteI havn't thought of sidney crosby. I think he is a good role model too
1. I think that celebrities/athletes make good role models because they can make us belivie in are slefs.
ReplyDelete2. I look up to any Ellen because she is not like everyone else and she is ok what people think of her.
3. I think that they should not assume because if they do this when they all act to good for everyone. And if you act like yourself and treat people nice that is when you are a good role modle.

I think that there is a lot of celebrities that are very good role models, such as 1 Direction 1 example of that they are good role models is that they all ways wear appropriate clothing. I do not look up to any celebrities, the reasoning for that is because I want to be me and nobody else. I think that any celebrity shouldn't worry about acting a certain way they should act the way they want and live their life the way they want and nobody else.
ReplyDelete1. I think that celebreitys and athelets do make good role model becuase they can be inspirational in many ways.
ReplyDelete2. Yes I do look up to celebrities and atheletes. One of them are Selena gomez becuase she doesn't do drugs and donates most of her songs to charity.
3. yes I do think they should act like role models forced or not becuse they are watched by so many people and are listend to. This could make our world a whole lot better.

yes i think that celebrities make good role models because they cinda tell you that if you push yourself than you cold make it into the big leages like the NHL, NBA or NFL
ReplyDeletewho i look up to as a celebritie role model is Mario Lemuex i look up to him because he stayed with the same team (pitsburg) evenwhen he stoped playing he maneges the team now so i look up to him cause he didnt give up the team
well if they dont want to stay a role model they shouldnt be one but if they do thats great cause its just another person to look up to :)

Yes I think that athletes/celebs. make good role models because if you are someone that is into sports then you would want to try to be like your favourite athlete. The athletes that I look up are Christine Sinclair and David Beckham. Both of these people play on soccer teams that comepte in World Cup series. I look up to both of these players because they are both great soccer players and I want to be just like them when im older. I think that if a celb. or athlete were good people then they wouldn't have to "act" for kids that look up to them.

ReplyDelete1.Yes I think that athletes/celebrities are good roles models as long as they don't do bad stuff like drugs.
2. No, I don't really have any role models. There really isn't anybody who does my favorite things while being a good role model.
3. Yes, they should be good role models towards kids, because famous people are always on TV and in magazines, so we can know what they are doing. They will become less famous if they are bad role models.
I think athletes/celebritys arn't good role models because they don't always send the right mesage.
DeleteI don't really have any celebrity role models because people you think would be a good person could some times turn out to be a bad person.
I think famous people should be good role models because they are in magazines and on tv and kids will pick some one to follow after and do everything they do.

ReplyDelete1. Do you think celebreties/athletes make good role models? personnaly yes as long as they do good for charities, don't do drugs and arn't adicted to alchohol
2. Do you look up to any celebreties/athletes? No because that just could change who I am
3. Do you think they should assume the responsibility of acting as a role model to young kids, regardless if they want to or not? Yes necause if they like attention like a glory hog or like doing the right thing they should assume the position as a role model as long as youn don't get drunk all the time,do illegal drugs, getting high all the time or being just plain rude
1.I think that they are good role models if they don't do drugs.
ReplyDelete2.I don't have a role model cause I want to be myself not somebody else.
3.I think they should be good role models for kids because then kids wouldn't be doing drugs.

ReplyDeleteYes, I think that they can be role models because they are good people and do good things.
2. Do you look up to any celebrities/athletes? If so, tell me why. If not, tell me why.
Yes, I look up to many celebrities one of them being, Ed Sheeran. I look up to him because he doesn't do drugs& His songs speak to me.
3. Do you think they should assume the responsibility of acting as a role model to young kids, regardless if they want to or not?
No. They should be able to do what they want because they're their own person.

1. good at i think that a celebrities/athelites are good role models because its showing kids and adults that u need to stay fit and practice at what you are good at.
ReplyDelete2. an athelite that i look up to is Tessa Bonhomme because she plays on the canadian olympic hockey team and she also plays the same perition as me.
3. i dont think they should have the responsibility to be forced to be a role model infront of people because itd there own life and they can do what they want to do not what a person forces you to do.
I think that some celebrities are good role models because they make a goal and they dont quit antil they achive that goal.
ReplyDeleteI look up to Dion Phaneuf, Mike Komisarek,Joffrey Lupul, Phil Kessel,Mikhail Grabovski,Tim Connolly and Tyler Bozak. I look up to all of these hockey players because i like how they play there game, and I also love the team they play for.
Yes i think that the celebrities should act like role models to younger childern because the younger childern look up to celebrities and want to be like the celebrities.

1. I think some celebrities/athletes make good role models, depending on what choices they make. For example, Lynsay Lohan is not a good role model because she made some bad decisions, but, someone like Carrie Underwood makes good choices and is a good role model.
ReplyDelete2. I look up to the celebritie Carrie Underwood. The reason I look up to her is because she worked hard to get to where she is today. Also, she makes good decisions in her everyday life and career. The last reason I look up to her is in her songs she always sends a good message that will have a positive impact.
3. I think that the celebritie/athlete should except the responsibility of being a role model. The reason I say that is because they should realize that there are always going tho have people looking up to them, and that comes with fame.
1. I think that some actors/celebrities are good role models, such as Oprah she has made a big diffrence in the world. In comparison to someone like Lindsay Lohan who is setting a bad example to all of her fans by going to jail because of her bad actions with drugs and alcohol.
ReplyDelete2. I do look up to Oprah because she has lots of good shows that are educational and eye opening.
3. Its is well knowen that many actors/celebrities get paied very well, so they should atleast have the responsibility of being a good role model because so may people will follow in their footsteps. They should do this regardless if they want to or not
