When you are finished in the word processing program and have a final draft, cut and paste it into the comment box and preview your comment before you post them.

ReplyDeleteThe thesis of this speech is that Mr. Obama wants us to do well in school. Never miss homework. Do well on tests, and never talk back to a teacher. The three most important words are 1.education because that is what Mr. Obama wants us to do. 2. Schools because that is where we get our education and 3.Teachers because they provide us with the knowledge we are supposed to know.
ReplyDeleteI believe the challenges of our generation are being our selves because everybody gets teased. Either because of how they look or just because they have glasses. Some people gang up on one person just because they don’t like him or her. Others may not want to tease somebody but are forced to. Some kids hate coming to school because they got teased or have no friends. Some students don’t feel safe in their school. There are bullies the teachers don’t notice them because what bully would act in front of a teacher. But the kids notice and you may be bullied some day to so tell a teacher if you are getting bullied more than once they will help.
