This month, Prairie Elementary is recognizing students who show the Very Important Character trait, caring and giving.   Which one of your classmates do you believe deserves the VIC award for being a caring and giving individual?  Write an argumentative paragraph explaining why he/she deserves the award.

Your paragraph should include the following:

You’re not just my mother, you’re my best friend……

Mom, my best friend, you have always cared, have always protected me, have always been there for me no matter what.

You teach me right from wrong, and push me to do the right thing, even when it is hard to do.

You take care of me when I am sick, and your love helps make me well.

You have rules, and I have learned that when I obey them, my life is simpler, better, richer.

You are the guiding light of my life. My heart is filled with love for you, my teacher, my best friend, my mother.
