This VIC today is Jodi because she is trustworthy.
She is trustworthy because she always keeps her promises. When she tells someone that she will bring them a snack and she forgets, she still brings it the next day. That is trustworthy because if she forgets what she was suppose to bring you, you can still trust her to bring it a day later.
She doesn’t cheat. If someone who wants to give her the answer for a hard question she says no thank you. This proves she is trustworthy because you are not suppose to be cheating on a test and she doesn’t.
She doesn’t spread any gossip about anyone. If someone is spreading gossip and she hears them she just walks away. This is trustworthy because her friend can trust her not to gossip about them.
All in all Jodi is very trustworthy because anyone can trust her to do anything.
VIC Trustworthiness
For this VIC I am choosing Payton. I am choosing Payton because when I need help on something like my math he always helps me. He never looks at the answers I have. Another, reason why Payton should be VIC is that he’s always cares about other people. When he’s playing and someone is on the floor he stops and helps him up. Then, When I let him use something like a pencil he says “ I owe you”. Then I said “You don’t owe me”. The next day he gave me a bag of chips. All in all I choose Payton for VIC.
For VIC I will be choosing someone for trustworthiness, that person is Spencer. The reason I choose Spencer is because he always avoids gossip. I know he always does his because when a person is talking about someone, he never gets in the group to hear what they’re saying. Another reason why I choose him is because he is a reliable person to trust. When I tell him a secret, he never tells this to someone else it is only between both of us. Another reason is that he always puts his own answers in a test. He always shows his work in every test we do, he may get it wrong but he always shows his mistakes in his own answers.

Trustworthiness
This month’s character is Trustworthiness, and i am voting for jose. I will be voting for him because he is always telling the truth, he is never coping on a test, i can trust him, and he never spreads rumors. People tell him secrets and he keeps them to himself, he is not the type of guy that goes around to people and telling them the secret. Jose tells the truth all the time if he gets in trouble he admits it was him and doesn’t blame it on a different person. He never cheats on test no matter how hard the question is he will never look at the person’s paper next to him. In conclusion jose should be V.I.C for this month.
Trustworthiness
I believe that the V.I.C for this month should be Arturo. First, if I tell him a secret he will not go and tell anybody. That is being trustworthy by not telling anyone and letting people know they could depend on him. Secondly, if I ask him what is wrong he would tell me and not lie to me. He will always tell the truth even if it means getting in trouble. Lastly, he will not copy any bodies work and test in tough situations. He works hard and will not copy which is being trustworthy. Therefore Arturo is perfect for V.I.C this month.
V.I.C.- Trustworthy
I think Arturo should be V.I.C. for this month because he is always trustworthy to everyone. My first example is that when we do tests he does not copy off of anyone he is next to. He does his own work for his own test. He never cheats at any test or any personal assignment he does. He always does his work silently and does not talk to his friends while a test.
My second reason is that he plays by the rules when he is playing with his friends sports or other games. He always plays by the rules in soccer or other games he plays at recess. He never gives up on his teammates whether he wins or loses. He haves fun in all of his games. He is reliable to himself and others. We can give him secrets and won’t tell. This are two reasons why Arturo should be V.I.C.
In my opinion believe that Lizbeth should be one of the next VIC for this last character trait (trustworthiness). My first reason on showing how Lizbeth is trustworthiness is that I can always count on her with a promise or a deep secret that needs to come out of me. I know that my secrets are safe with her because she wouldn’t tell anyone one if she knew how much it would hurt me. Another way I could prove Lizbeth is a good trustworthy friend is that when someone needs to ask a question, she will be honest and tell what she needs to say. Lizbeth wouldn’t tell lies, I know she would not tell them because she knows that one lies leads to another and sooner or later you will get caught. The last evidence I have to show you that Lizbeth has trustworthiness in her is that she can be reliable whenever we need her to be. When I say reliable I mean she can be a friend in hand, she will be there by your side to defend you in any way she could help in.
Clearly after reading this you should vote for Lizbeth because from my opinion she is a great trustworthy friend I can for sure count on, and you should to if you want a buddy to be by your.
