This I Believe is a narrative essay the kids will write using events in their lives. It can be related to their three words or not, but it should have some deeper meaning.
For example, I am contemplating using this sentence as my thesis::: I believe that good people should not stand silent and let bad things happen.
Very recently, a situation occurred in which I did this very thing. I still feel guilty about it, and I do believe that good people don't let bad things happen. My essay would reflect that through my experience. Usually these are the most powerful essays they write all year, and some will be read at the My 3 Words Premiere.
CALLING ALL PARENTS/GUARDIANS: My 3 Words Parent Committeee will meet Wednesday at 4:00 in Miss Cioni's room to discuss all things My 3 Words!!! ANYONE wanting to help is invited! I appreciate your time and help as well as your involvement with your child! I am so excited.
Key word for Extra Credit: respect.
