After our class discussion about words having POWER and the week of RESPECT, we are now thinking about a word that we wish to remove from our daily use. We are calling it "Banish a Word." We went over an example in class and worked on some ideas...
This is the paragraph we wrote together in class...
If I could banish a word it would be evil. Evil has the power to change how you feel about yourself in a negative way. Evil can cause you to harm yourself or others. Evil makes the world a terrible, unsafe place. If I could get rid of evil, I would crush it under my shoe like a tiny, squirming insect. I would watch it die and be replaced with love. Love has the power to change the world into a better place. It can make you feel good inside like a harm hug you carry with you all day long. Love makes you feel better by helping you to see the beauty in all of the people around you. If evil was replaced with love, the world would be a safer, happier place.
You can type up your paragraphy and email it to me or share it with me via Google Docs. My email is nmulry@ewingboe.org.
We also talked about adding a Wordle. If you would like to do that, go here.
