VIC – Trustworthiness
In my opinion Jarse should be VIC for trustworthiness. To start with, he always writes down his own answers on a test. This shows that he is trustworthy because if Jarsen doesn’t look at other people’s answers on test, cheating, than he is showing Ms.Adams that he can trust him to do what is right. Another reason that Jarsen is trustworthy is that he is reliable and he keeps his promises. I know that he’s reliable because when i’m hurt or my feelings are hurt then he is there for me. In fact, when I tell Jarsen a secret he promises that he’ll keep it, and he does. This show that he is trustworthy because I can trust him to be there for me, in the bad times and in keeping my secrets. The final reason that I choose Jarsen, VIC for trustworthiness, is that he tries to avoid gossip. This means that you can trust him to not talk about you when you are gone. As I said before, Jarsen should be VIC for trustworthiness. He doesn’t cheat, he’s reliable, he doesn’t break his promises, and he avoids gossip.
Trustworthiness
In my opinion I think that Jonathan should be VIC for trustworthiness. Jonathan should be VIC because he is a very trustworthy person. He tells the truth instead of lying and making up a different story. That is being trustworthy because he is not lying about what happened or what he did. He keeps promises. That is being trustworthy because he is not starting drama and gossip. Lastly, he doesn’t copy other people’s tests. That is being trustworthy because when we are taking a test you know that he won’t try to cheat. All and all even though most people are trustworthy I wanted to pick Jonathan for VIC.
V.I.C
This week V.I.C is trustworthiness. I nominate Jodi for V.I.C.
To begin with, She is trustworthy because she always keeps her promises. When she tells someone that she will bring them a snack she brings it the next day. That is trustworthy because if she says she will bring something you can trust her to bring it later. Next, She is trustworthy because she doesn’t cheat. If someone who wants to give her the answer for a hard question she says “No, I can do this myself.” This proves she is trustworthy because you are not suppose to be cheating on a test, that would be breaking our teacher’s rule and she doesn’t break any rules and you can trust not for her to cheat off of you. Finally, She is trustworthy because she doesn’t spread any gossip about anyone. If someone is spreading gossip and she hears them she just walks away. This proves that she is trustworthy because her friend can trust her not to gossip about them.
All in all, Jodi is very trustworthy and anyone can trust her.
Trustworthiness
I will choose Akila because she is trustworthy she is always nice to others. She always tell the truth to everybody that she trust. She always keeps the promises, and never tells someone else the promises that the person who told her the promise. And she have never lied to everybody. She is nice to everybody and mostly the classroom. She never copies from others person test. She is honest to everybody and the teachers mostly.
V.I.C
For V.I.C i think that Emani should be V.I.C because she is so nice and very funny and i think she will be a nice V.I.C because she does not tell nobody there secret and she can keep a promise.She does not copy other people’s test answers and she makes people laugh when they feel sad of there is something that hurts. Like one time someone was sad and she always makes them really happy. And she can make lots of friends because she is so nice to people one time there was a new kid and then she made him her friend. I think this is why Emani should be VIC.
V.I.C
For VIC I am nominating E’mani for trustworthiness. I am voting for E’mani because I can trust her with my secrets. For example when I tell her secret she keeps it, but when I tell somebody else everybody knows my secret and start making rumors. The next reason why I chose E’mani is because I can trust her with my belongings. For example I can trust her with my chips, but when I tell somebody else there is some missing. All in all I think E’mani deserves VIC for this month.
Trustworthiness
For V.I.C I would like to vote for Jonathan because he is trustworthy. I want to vote for him because I can always trust him. I can trust him because he can keep secrets and he won’t tell anyone. I also nominated Jonathan because he never cheats on tests and he puts his own answers. He puts his own answers because he can always support it. I voted for him because he avoids gossip and he doesn’t talk about others. He avoids gossip because he doesn’t start rumors about other people. As you can see, Jonathan should win V.I.C because he is trustworthy.
V.I.C.
For VIC today we are having trustworthiness. My vote and person that I think should be VIC today is Jarsen. I will be picking Jarsen because he always avoids gossip. Whenever people talk about other people, he just walks away and minds his own business. He also keeps his promises. One time I gave him chips, and he promised me the other day he would also give me some chips. The third reason why I chose him is because he puts his own answers on tests and homework. He never tells someone what is the answer for a question, he just works hard and tries his best on everything. Therefore, I pick Jarsen for VIC because he is very trustworthy.
VIC-Trustworthiness
There are many people who are trustworthy and a good candidate for VIC, but I believe Akila should be VIC. Akila should be VIC because she demonstrates trustworthiness by never cheating on tests. This is trustworthy of her to do this because if you cheat on tests, I can’t trust you because you might cheat from my paper. Another reason why Akila should be VIC is because you can tell a secret to her without fear of her telling anyone. This is trustworthy of her because if she did tell someone, I can’t trust her, but she doesn’t tell anyone, which makes her trustworthy. The final reason why Akila should be VIC is because Akila avoids gossiping about others. That shows she is trustworthy because you know she won’t say anything bad about you. In conclusion, Akila is trustworthy because she never cheats on tests, you can tell secrets to her, and she avoids gossip.
V.I.C-Trustworthiness
First things first for this month is trustworthiness again and this time I would like to chose Jarson. I would like to pick Jarson because he is very honest and not only me but we can trust him. For example, every time he says he is going to borrow something he will borrow it then bring the thing back. This means that you can trust him and not worry about it. Another example is that every time I tell or ask him something he will not tell someone else and not go oh he ask me this and he told me that. He will keep it a secret and you can trust him with certain things. The last thing is that if he says he will do something he will do it. Like this one time he said he will do something the next day and he did it and i was kinda surprised. You can trust this person and this is why he should be V.I.C.
VIC- Trustworthiness
The student that I believe should be recognized for being a trustworthy is, Amy.
One reason I believe she should be recognized is because, I’ve never seen her get into any drama or mischief in the weeks that I’ve been here. The only time that I’ve seen her in any relation to that is when she is concerned to what all of the commotion is about.
Another example of her being a trustworthy person is, how welcome she makes me feel to talk to her. She listens and that makes me feel like I can trust her.
The last example is because she is respectful. And I feel that respectful people don’t tell anything that they know they shouldn’t tell.
In conclusion I believe she should be recognized for her trustworthiness is because, she never gets into any drama, she makes me feel welcome to talk to her, and she’s is respectful.
Trustworthiness
There are many classmates in my class that I can trust and that are trustworthiness. The person that I can trust the most is a person that keeps their promises, is honest, and tells the truth. The person I picked for this month’s V.I.C is Jodi. I picked Jodi because she is trustworthiness in many ways. She is able to keep promises and to be trusted. If someone would tell her something personal she wouldn’t go out gossiping and telling everyone else in class if she wasn’t told too. These are the reasons why I choose Jodilyn for this month’s V.I.C character.
Trustworthiness
I believe that Jarsen should be V.I.C because he is always Trustworthy. Frist of all Jarsen will never spill your secrets. For an example I can always make sure he can keep my secrets. Second of all Jarsen will keep everything he says. So If he says he will give anything back he borrowed he will give it back. Finally Jarsen will never copy on test. So I will always know that he won’t copy our test when we are next to him. As you can see Jarsen is the perfect choice for V.I.C.

VIC
VIC-Trustworthiness
For VIC trustworthy I would like to nominate Payton. I nominate him because I can always count on him. One reason why I could count on him is because whenever I tell him a secret he would keep it a secret. The second reason why I nominated Payton is because he would always tell the truth. When he tells me something has happened and he tells me about it then if I ask Ryan then he would tell me the same thing.The last reason why I nominated him is because he avoids gossip. The way that he avoids gossip is because he minds his own business. All in all that is why I nominated Payon for VIC trustworthiness.
VIC
I choose Raynell for VIC because he is trustworthiness. I choose Raynell because he is that kind of person that can keep a promise. For example, when you feel bad he comes and helps you tells you “what’s wrong” and if it’s a secret, you can trust him to keep it. To add on that, I choose Raynell is because he doesn’t cheat. If it’s in a math test, a game, or just playing he is always a good sport. My last, reason he tells the truth. When he did something bad he says “ I did it”. For trustworthiness I chose Raynell.
V.I.C
For VIC I think it should be Jonathan. To begin with he is very helpful because when someone needs help you can trust him. Also if he has to take care of something he does it. Also he always does his homework on time. You can forget something but he will bring it. One way is that he gave me my jacket when i forgot it at recess. Also he is always on time when a project is due. I think Jonathan should be VIC.
V.I.C Trustworthiness
For this V.I.C I want to pick someone who has never been V.I.C before because the same people get chosen all the time. The person who has hasn’t been V.I.C and deserves V.I.C is Payton I think he is trustworthy and a good person. Payton is a good friend, he’s funny, and I can always trust him. Payton is trustworthy because most people in our class go to Payton when they need to tell someone something private and they know that Payton will keep the secret. Most people just choose their friends although Payton and I are friends that’s not why I’m choosing him, I’m choosing Payton because everybody can trust him and he always tells the truth and gets along with everybody. I hope Payton gets V.I.C this month.
Trustworthiness
I think Raynell 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 tries to get A+ every time.
My second reason is that he won’t tell anyone a secret and he never tells lies. He is reliable to himself and others. We can give him secrets and won’t tell. My last reason is when he says he will do something he will do it. He never tells lies and does what he promised. When he says that he will bring something or tell us he promise he does it. In conclusion raynell does not cheat, he keeps his promises, and he keeps his word which is why I chose him as a trustworthy person for V.I.C.
Trustworthiness
This month’s character is Trustworthiness, and i am voting for Jarsen. For example I will be voting for him because he is always telling the truth, he is never coping on a test, and i can trust him. In fact if you tell him a secret he keeps it to himself. He is not the person that goes around to people and telling them the secret. There for He tells the truth all the time if he gets in trouble head admits it was him and doesn’t blame it on a different person. He is honest about everything. Not to mention He never cheats on test no matter how hard the question is and he will never look at the person’s paper. If he sits next to me i know he will not copy off my paper. In conclusion Jarsen should be V.I.C for this month for trustworthiness.
VIC: Trustworthiness
Today we will be voting for VIC (Very Important Character), and I’m choosing Damarion. I chose him, because he is very polite, he listens, and he is reliable. He is also respectful to himself, not just others. I believe Curly should be VIC, because he helps others, when they don’t get it. For instance, if Emani needs help with something or clarification about something, he’ll help. Whenever he hears gossip he avoids it and says “what if it’s fake” or “I it is true then why are you telling people’s business. Therefore I choose this person, because he differs in many ways. For one, he keeps his promise to others. Secondly, he does his own work and does not copy. For instance, if he didn’t finish a homework assignment, and he comes to school. Then someone in his group wants him to complete it last minute and copy theirs, he’ll say “no”.
All in all I believe that Damarion should be VIC because he is a very helpful, and trustful friend.
VIC-Trustworthiness
I choose Jarsen to be VIC for trustworthiness because he is never incomplete for anything. He also never talks about anyone and could keep secrets.
One reason why I think Jarsen should be vic for trustworthiness is because he’s never incomplete and never forgets to do his homework which is why he’s never incomplete. Well I know it’s talking about being responsible but at the sametime you trust him to do and finish his homework on time.
Another reason why I think Jarsen should VIC for trustworthiness because he is always nice and you can always rely on him to do something like keep secrets because, if you had something you wanted to keep to yourself but at the same time tell someone he would
The final reason why I think Jarsen should be VIC for trustworthiness is because he never wants to commit violence or cause any harm to anyone. That’s why you could trust him with other people and expect that he will not fight.
Therefore I believe Jarsen should be vic for trustworthiness because of the things he does like do his homework and not be incomplete. He can keep secrets and little things to himself, and finally not to commit violence.
I think Angel should be vic because Angel is one a kind. One of the reasons is when we play sharks and minnows he plays fair. If he get tagged he be it with everybody else. Anda one is that when I tell him a secret and tell him not to tell anyone he keeps a secret. One time Told him one secret and he kept it. Fore another example that he is trustworthy is like if when the class a game on the field we can trust not cheat or do to make us mess up except when it’s allowed. Another reason is like Ms.Adams gives us a test I can trust Angel not to look at my test when sit next to each other. All in all, I think Angel should be V.I.C
V.I.c. Trustworthiness
Have you had to make a hard decision before, If you have well than we can relate. For V.I.C I choose Payton. I choose Payton because I can trust him with my secrets and never gossips about people. I can trust him with my secret because he does not go and tell people my business. Another reason I can Trust Payton is because even if Someone he does not like talks to him he would not be like get out of my face. All in all Payton is a very trustworthy person.
V. I. C- Trustworthiness
In my opinion I think that Akila should be V.I.C because she is trustworthy. The first reason that I think she is trustworthy because she is honest by telling the truth. Second reason is that she puts her own answer when the class takes a test. Third reason is that she keeps her friends promises. Fourth reason is she avoids gossip like for an example if there was someone telling Alika something that is not nice Akila would not go around telling people that what happen when she heard about it. Akila is a really good friend to me she was always trustworthy to her friends and siblings. Whenever I am her partner she will always be helpful like when she was playing a game and then I asked her for help and she helped me. Akila is also smart she works hard for good grades. All in all, I think that I am very lucky to have a really great and trustworthy friend like Akila.

V.I.C
For V.I.C I am picking Amy. I am picking Amy because she is reliable and she keeps my promises . These are the some reasons why I think Amy should be V.I.C. She always keeps my promises because one day I told her a secret and I told her to promise me to keep it and she never told anybody so that means she always keeps my promises. She’s reliable because she never betrays me and one time I told her to borrow one of my pencils and I told her not to lose it and bring it back to me. The next day she brought me my pencil and so that means she’s reliable and so I can trust her.
