Chapter Twelve
What do you think about the conditions Miss Sedgewick placed upon Ida and her students in exchange for keeping the school a secret? Are these conditions fair? Please support your thinking with detailed explanations.
True but thats why there is a thing called studying. Plus I bet for the kindergardeners the problems will be like whats 1 cookie plus 1 cookies and easy stuff like that.
I think the conditions Miss Sedgewick placed upon the kids in exchange for keeping their secret was fair because it's not fair that she has to keep a secret as big as that and get nothing in return.
Well it is near the end of the year and even in the begging of the book it said we will not look for another teacher because it is near the end of the year.
I think its pretty fair but not for the other students because they need to study hard for there exit exam even the 1st graders.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it is fair for the other students because Ida and Tom know almost all the stuff on the test while the other kids don't.

ReplyDeleteThey might take different tests be cause if the little kids get a fith grade test than it would be way to hsrd.
