A horrible rumor was spreading<br />
from person to person about Leslie.<br />
She was crying so badly. Once I saw<br />
her tears fall down her red cheeks,<br />
There was once a time when I<br />
was in 6th grade and my friends<br />
started picking on 5th graders. I<br />
found out and told them to stop<br />
I decided to fix this.<br />
I couldn’t stand seeing<br />
a person cry from<br />
a rumor about her that<br />
wasn’t even true. Once<br />
the rumor got to me, I<br />
changed it up a little to<br />
what really happened.<br />
Once everyone heard<br />
it, they understood<br />
the misunderstanding<br />
and apologized. I<br />
hope you never know<br />
what it’s like to be in<br />
this situation. This horrible<br />
thing should never<br />
happen in the world.<br />

One day, we were all in recess. A<br />
few of my friends and I were playing<br />
a game. One girl asked to play<br />
and they didn’t want her to play.<br />
They said there were too many<br />
people. So, I said, “I played yesterday<br />
already. She can play instead<br />
of me.” They said, “Fine,<br />
she can also play.” They enjoyed<br />
playing with her and they became<br />
close friends. Vote: 1 2 3 4 5<br />
Don’t be<br />
mean behind<br />
the screen<br />
because they are also people and<br />
we hated it when the former 6th<br />
graders did it to us. They hesitated<br />
to stop but then they realized<br />
what they were doing and felt<br />
bad and stopped. This shows that<br />
when you are doing something<br />
bad, think about how you felt or<br />
would feel if it ever happened<br />
to you. Vote: 1 2 3 4 5<br />

Shani, Devori, Tamar and I were all<br />
standing around. Shani said, “Oh my<br />
gosh, Rina’s boots are so ugly.” Rina<br />
was standing 5 feet away. I quickly<br />
added, “You<br />
are jealous.<br />
Her boots are<br />
so cute.” Shani<br />
immediately<br />
saw what I was<br />
doing and said,<br />
“Of course. I<br />
was being sarcastic.”<br />
She<br />
walked over to<br />
Rina and asked<br />
her where she<br />
got her boots<br />
from. She<br />
made a whole<br />
fuss about<br />
them.<br />

If I would see someone crying<br />
or getting picked on or lonely, I<br />
would go to her and talk to her.<br />
Sarah is a new girl and no one likes<br />
her. I would tell her, “Don’t worry,<br />
don’t cry. It doesn’t matter what<br />
people think. It only matters what<br />
you think. So, don’t cry; ignore<br />
them. Be yourself.” She would<br />
feel better. Vote: 1 2 3 4 5<br />
