Mr. Todd 12 September 2011 “A Word Is Only a Word” The word friend means exactly what it is‚ just a word. The pure substance behind the word no longer bares any true meaning and feeling behind it. I have learned to limit the use of the word and can only call a select few a true friend. Growing up I thought I was popular because I had so many friends. However little did I know that instead of calling these people friends‚ I should have substituted the word for acquaintances‚ or in the future

Several years ago‚ I heard someone say‚ “Values are caught‚ not taught.” At first‚ this sounded counterintuitive and completely wrong.

I strongly believe that we should get rid of reading logs. Because it just brings stress to the kids of getting their parent to sign the reading log‚ because they know if their parent does not sign their reading log the grade will go down. Secondly reading should be a gift you should not have to think of it as a chore. You should be able to get into a good book without thinking about how long you are reading for. By getting rid of reading logs if you don’t have the full time you won’t have to walk
