NBTT- Teachers I get along with

Since we're reading Nothing But The Truth, which involves a boy who doesn't get along with a teacher, I want you to consider teacher-student relationships you've had in the past. Have you had teachers that you just got along with whether or not you did well in their class? Have you had teachers whose personality just didn't mesh with yours? Without naming names, expound upon these ideas and thoughtfully consider how personality differences or similarities have affected you in your classes.

i have had a few teachers i got along with, a few that didn't like me and i didn't like them, and alot that was somewhere in between. i don't think your personalities really have to mesh, i think more that they have to be the fun teacher that everyone likes and they like everyone. or they have to be the coaches that like people who are good at sports. mostly just the coaches like me but there have been a few other teachers who i got along with pretty well. and its not that i was the smartest or best behaved person in the class. cause i am definately not the smartest or best behaved in any of my classes. i don't know why most of the teachers and coaches liked me.

Honesty

How important is honesty to you? Is it more important than kindness? Share a story of a time you or someone you know was not honest and it caused problems or was 'too honest' and it caused problems.

honesty is really important to me, but maybe not more than kindness. i dont know any stories in particular, i just know examples. like if you dont tell the truth you could lose the one you want. and if you are too honest, you can really offend some people. so ultimately, you want to be honest, but you dont need to say the stuff that could be taken as offensive to someone. sometimes it is nicer to leave some honest things out.

Its the end of the world as we know it...

The world is ending. There are natural disasters happening everywhere. You know that soon you will be stranded in your house with only the food left in your cupboards. You make a mad dash to the grocery store but everyone there is in such chaos that you know you'll only have time to grab one item before escaping with your life. What item of food do you grab?Describe what the food is, how long you'll wait to eat it, what it will feel like to know you're eating it for the last time. Will you share with your family? Will you hide it away until there's nothing else left? Will you eat it a little at a time or gobble it all at once? Describe every aspect of enjoying this last savory morsel of food.

i would probably go to sams club because they only sell everything in big packs. i would get big chicken nuggets. because they already come in big bags, and they are easy to divide with your family. we would probably ration the food so that we each ate so many each day. i would definately not hide it from my family. it would be a little depressing knowing that it would be my last time eating them but i would live.

Super power

Imagine that you have a superpower. The Power of Persuasion. You can convince anyone of anything. How would you use that power? What would you try to get, do, change? Would you use it for good? Or evil? Describe what the Power of Persuasion is.

I don't think that I would use that power at all. It could be horrible, or good. You would be able to convince someone that what they were doing was wrong, or that something they were doing is actually good. You could make it so that there where no bad people in the world. But if there was no bad people, then there is also no good people. I don't think that using a power like that would benefit the world at all.

Book Review

Write a review of the last good book you've read. You should include:1 paragraph summary- what's the story about?1 paragraph review- what did you like about the book? What could have been better?Your review: how many stars would you give it?

The last good book I read was called "the secret journal of Brett Colton". It was about a girl who was just turning sixteen. Her older brother Brett died when she was 2 and he left a box full of stuff for her 16th birthday. He was the star football player and died at 17 of cancer. The girl later meets an LDS quarterback.

I liked the book because it was good and didn't have any bad content. It was also an LDS book but it wasn't a dumb, boring, ultra-spiritual one. This book is so cute and makes me wish I had an older brother.

Create A Character

Pick three letters from the alphabet. For example, A, J, and L. Then, for each letter, pick a name, a location, and a job. This is your new character. Write a couple paragraphs about them.


My 3 letters from the alphabet are M, J, and N. My character is 17 year old Monty. He is a Lifeguard in Jamaica even though he is from Japan.

Japan was great, when he wasn't a secret agent for a group called LAAM. Living to Assist All Mankind. Jamaica is full of unsolved deaths surrounding the ocean, hence the reason he is a lifeguard.

One day, Monty was walking back down to the beach after his lunch break, he heard a loud scream. He ran down to the beach, but only got there in time to see someone disapear under the waves. They never were seen again.
