Introduction
Hello, if you are a new student from Room 8 at Tamaki Primary School. I can tell you how to become a good, intelligent and responsible room 8 student.

Paragraph 1
In room 8 we look for children helping out each other. Mr Wong and Miss Kyla are our teachers. What they respect is your culture or how you feel. Even if you're angry, sad or mad they will help you out and sort your problem out. The expectations we have in room 8 is no put downs. That means not ganging up on people in class and also no swearing or chewing gum in class.

Paragraph 2
We look for people making the right decisions. Our teachers will respect you if you respect them back. Always try out new things. Try and set goals to a high standard.

Paragraph 3
In room 8 these lovely and kind teachers will always look and ask for anyone who needs help. They will respect you and yourself that’s including your culture, but the important thing is to pay attention when they tell you to be quite or listen for what they have to say.

Conclusion
If you follow this it will be a lot easier for the teachers to try, and finish their work in there own time in class. Also you can be a successful student, work hard and have a better future. Encourage others to follow this explanation because this can help people who have a sad attitude to a happy attitude, and also not being disorganised in the morning for learning time.

Find an inspiring quote about it:
Make sure you include:
  • Who said it
  • What it means to myself
  • how you will apply it on your own life

The person who reads too much and uses his brain too little will fall into lazy habits of thinking.

-Albert Einstein

This quote was from Albert Einstein.

This quote means think more than reading then copying and pasting it on your own work.

This will apply in my life once I get to university because I could remember the quote to inspire me a little bit about using my thinking skills instead of reading information and copying and pasting it into my own work.
