Sixth Assignment


Here is your sixth assignment:


What are you thankful for? School? Family? Peace? Food? Sports? Ice Cream? Animals? Shelter? Pizza? Tennis? Friends? The Mall?


You must write about one thing that you are thankful for.


Here are the requirements:
- you must give at least 5 reasons for the one thing you are thankful for
(ex: family – five (or more) different examples, explanations, or reasons why you are thankful)

- Use correct grammar usage

- Use correct spelling and punctuation

- Topic and conclusion sentence

- Must be complete by Wednesday


Example:


There are so many things in the world I am thankful for. Clean air, a home to live in, a free country, sunny days, good friends, and family to name just a few. There is one thing that I am thankful for above all else, ice cream. On a hot summer day when I feel like I am going to melt if I take one step, ice cream never tastes better. If I am feeling sad or lonely, ice cream can make things seem just a little bit better. Going to the ice-cream parlor and looking at all the flavors under the glass, even tasting a few, before you pick that one flavor that looks better than all the rest. Buying the same carton at the store every time I go because I know exactly how it will taste when it hits my tongue. These are all reasons why I am so very thankful for ice cream. Whether it is peppermint bon bon, chocolate, strawberry, cookie dough, or vanilla; ice cream makes me a very happy person.

I am thankful for many things, for example, family, friends, good health, food, and a comfortable house. But I am most thankful for the doctors and nurses who cured my grandfather of cancer. I am happy to know that he is not so sick. I am also happy to know that I will not lose him to cancer. It also makes me happy to know that I can visit him this Christmas break. It is nice to have fun with him, and also to make happy memories with him again. I am very thankful that my grandfather is now cancer free.

I am thankful for lots of things like sports, my family, friends, shelter and food. Here are five reasons I am thankful for shelter. Reason one, when it's raining, snowing, hot or cold I can come into a home where the heat is on or the air conditioning is on. Second, I have a warm bed to sleep in instead of the grass or the curb. Third, there are people in the house who care about you and give you things that you need. Fourth, I have toys to play with to keep me occupied from bugging my mom or dad. Lastly, I am thankful for shelter because you have basements or bathrooms that will keep you from getting hurt in a storm. I could say a million more reasons but there are a few.

I am thankful for many, many things. Right now in my life, I am most thankful for my family. When I need arms to hug me after a long day, or when I need a laugh after a hard test, they're always there. When I need someone to tell me that I need to finish my milk after dinner, my mom's always there. When I need someone to take me to DQ after a hard day, that's what dads are for right??!! When I need someone that will listen to ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING, Abby's always there. When I need someone to make me laugh, that's what Timmy is here for!!!! I am blessed to have a family like mine.

P.S. I'm also blessed to have such GREAT classmates and teacher(s)!!!!!!

I am thankful for many things, and one of my favorites is the sport of football. I am thankful for it because it is one of my favorite things to do. I love playing it everywhere, whether it's at recess, in the league, or a pick up
game at the park. Football is my greatest hobbie. I love to play it, watch it on TV, and just do anything that has to do with it. That's how much I like football.

I am thankful for sports. I am thankful for sports because of many reasons. One reason is that it that they are fun to play. I play baseball and hockey. Another reason is thatIt gives you something to do. Another reason is that if you play and your good enough you can go pro when your older.Another reason is that you can go and watch pro teames at their stadium. My 4th reason is that you can get nice trophies. My fifth and final reason is that you never know what is going to happen next. Is a good thing going to happen or is a bad thing going to happen?These are some reasons why I am thankful for sports. Sports rule!

I am thankful for many things. But sometimes I don't think of how lucky I am to have all of these thnigs. Some examples of things that I am thankful for are... Friends because if you didn't have friends, who would you play with all day? Also I am thankful for Sports such as soccer and dance, Food, shelter,my family and even school. Because one, if we didn't go to school, we wouldn't know anything. And two, if we didn't go to school, we wouldn't have anything to do all day and we couldn't play with friends because we wouldn't know anyone. Those are some things that I am thankful for.

I am thankful for sooo many things family, friends, clean water to drink, food to eat...exsetra. But I am most thankful for people who care about me. My friends my family they are all so important to me. Like when ever I cry my mom & dad are there for me, to comfert me. Also when ever I am having a hard time my friends are there to back me up. Like when my grandma died even my grandparents from the other side of the family where there for me, to help me. Even my friends try to help me when I start to cry. But all the time there is always someone out there who thinks about me every day. Friends and family... What could we do with out them.

One thing I am thankful for is pop. I'm thankful for pop because when I'm low on sugar I drink pop. When I hang out with friends we drink pop. another reason I am thankful for pop is because I drink it when I am sad. I like lots of different kinds of pop. The last reason is becuase it just tastes good. that is why I'm thankful for pop.

gives me shelter, also it is where
I live.
