The Power of Words
Words can make someone's day or totally ruin it. Words can make your heart sing or crumble.

I remember a time when I was in second grade and my friend Kara's words saved me. That morning, my mom pulled my bangs back into a rubber band and then put hairspray on the front. I thought my new style was nice. When I walked into the classroom, Blaire Schmizer just stared, opened his mouth wide and pointed at me. My heart stopped. Kids started to laugh and then went silent. In the silence, my best friend Kara said in a loud, strong voice, "Christine, your hair looks pretty." Then, the teacher looked sternly at Blaire and the other kids that laughed and everyone just went about their day. I was saved!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was about five or six something really weird happened. My toenail just randomly fell off. I was with my cousin Lila and she is the one who noticed it. She said "Daphne your toenail!" I stated to freak out. Lila ran over to one of the life guards. All I really remember was Lila saying "Daphne you will be ok." under her breath. It made me feel really good haring her voice. Her actions and her words made me feel a lot better.
ReplyDeleteGot to go. See you tomorrow;)
Well sadly I was not there but I heard that Mrs. Babine's speech in the forum was amazing! I do agree with Mrs. Babine about how you can say something nice but the way your tone of your voice is can also determine if it really IS nice. My sister is a victim of it because around the house she can say a nice thing but we can determine it differently. Do you have any experience with something like that?
ReplyDeleteP.S Sorry ms. Papadakes I did not have any ideas
for your blog!!! So So Sorry! :[ :[
When I was eight. I remember when these older kids were picking on me and my brother said stop it or I will throw the tennis ball. The older kids walked off is aid you saved my live then a few days laterI stud up for sam thence were so happy they were gone.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was five my friend was getting bullied by six year olds and I stood up for him and told them to stop. My friend thank me. I felt good Inside.
ReplyDeleteAbout a month ago I was at baseball I missed a couple of hard ground balls and I did not do good. And after practice my coach asked me if I could see. And started laughing and I got very sad. And it made me want to try harder.
ReplyDeleteI was playing at a chess tournament at Aldine Middle School.I won a trophy and my dad congratulated me. It made me feel good.
ReplyDeleteI thought Ms.Babine's speech was great! One time one of my friends called me fat as a joke, (I think it was a joke.) I was so sad and I just sat there frowning! It was really devastating to me. We are friends again now but I still remember that. :( I will see you guys tomorrow at school.
ReplyDeleteI thought Ms. Babine's speech on the power of words was very good. One time I was in pre-k and I was late for school and when I went into class a little boy I am not going to say the name but they laugh at me. And he made other people laugh. All I wanted to do was run as fast as I can back to my house. And my best friend Libby Davis got up and said " tomorrow I bet you won't be late !" and then smiled really big. And then my the people who laughed got in big trouble and she had to call their parents. I was so happy that Libby saved me :)!
ReplyDeleteSee you guys at school tomorrow!
I was sick on the speech day so I don't know what she said. I my Heart felt bad when I got my self out at boomer ball. Everyone was laughing and calling me names. And that me sad. That was the most embarrassing moment of my life. I'm pretty sure everybody remembers that day and someday Ill look back and laugh. I hope none of my friends laughed! Sometimes your tone of voice can change a joke into an insult! Remember that guys!!!!!
ReplyDeleteEvery morning Miss P. acknowledgs me when I walk in the room and, says "hello!" I think people should all say kind words to each other! And another time when someone made me sad was...
ReplyDeletemeny times . My sister Does usual sister things and all day and blames everything on me! Those are some of the worst days. And she hurts my feelings I'm sure there's a lot more I could tell you about but I have to go
P.s.
When they say sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me it's not true words can hurt you!!
My little sister also blames everything on me. I always say, "That is NOT true! You LOVE to blame things on me." And I say that because it's basically true! I hate it when she gets me in trouble. Sometimes (rather, most of the time!) I talk my way out of it, and sometimes I don't. When I don't, I get really, really mad!
DeleteEach day when I walk in the class room, I say hi to Ms. Papadakes. When I come in before her I wait to say hi, because it makes me feel good. When I'm tiered and she says good morning she makes me feel welcomed. I love when I can start the day with kind words. I hope she keeps doing it because she britons my day.

ReplyDeletewhen people say something I think it pretty much depends on what you say and how you say it. For example: Sometimes when i'm in a bad mood and I don't say yes please and my mom tells me to I say it grumbling and under my breath. And when any of my siblings do something wrong and my mom asks any of us to say sorry we sometimes say it quickly an run off. And if somebody said "You look really ugly today Annie." that would be an example of what you say. (Not that anybody has ever said that to me personally.)
ReplyDeleteBye, See you tomorrow.
Well I did like it. and I loved the word words are powerful. And Ms. Babines speech. Words can make someones day or hurt someones day!! Be careful your words!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was first learning to water sky I thought I could never do I but my mom said "keep going you can do it" that made me feel good. When i went to my friends house she felt really bad I cant tell why but i said hey it was not her falt when i said that she looked happier.
ReplyDeleteHi, Mrs. Babine talked to us about kind words. Then, we talked about it with her. I like it when people say nice things to other people. I also like it when people use a nice tone of voice. It makes a difference. I hope that I can help someone feel better by choosing my words carefully.
ReplyDeleteI think we could get better with words. We're definitely trying to 99.9.9.99..9.9.9.9.9..9..9.9.9.9.9.9..9 %. What do you think
