 Trouble in Class

by

Monserath

 

            One day in school, we were all doing homework and Samantha was not sure if she got it. Then, Samantha said, “Can I imitate your homework?” I said,” No way.” So, Mrs. Young said, “What are you girls chatting about?” I said, “Nothing.”

             Just then, Mrs. Young said, “If you don’t tell me I will give you a time – out!” I said, “I will explain everything,” “See, Samantha had trouble doing the homework so, she asked me if she could duplicate my homework and I said no!” So, the teacher said, “I have an idea.”

             A few minutes later, Mrs. Young separated us and Samantha was sent to the Principal’s office. After school, Samantha went home in a bus, when she got home her mom said, “Why did Mrs. Young change you to another room?” Samantha said, “What? I thought they separated me from Monserath, not rooms.”

            The next day, when Samantha was in another room, she was depressed and I was cheerful to be in Mrs. Young’s room but, I still don’t get that, instead of changing seats, they just changed Samantha to another room but, at least she is not going to copy from me.

             The day after that, Mrs. Young wanted to talk to me so, Mrs. Young said, “Samantha is coming back to the room.” When Samantha came she said that she was sorry and we became friends again.

Someone Who Wants to Copy
by
Alin

       One afternoon when I was doing my homework at home my friend Gabriel came over. He asked me if he could copy my math homework. So I said, “No! You already copied my homework one time and I’m not going to let you copy my homework again!”

      The next day he begged and was bobbing up and down around me to let him copy my homework. Then I still said, “No because copying is wrong.” So I asked him, “Why do you want to copy my math homework?” So he blurted, “I don’t know how to do my math homework.” I said, “That’s not bad, just trying your best.”

       When he was about to leave I asked him if he wanted me to help him on his math homework, not copy. So he said, “Yes I do want help from you.” So I was getting ready to help Gabriel with his math homework.

       The next morning Gabriel came to my house and said, “Are you ready to help me with my math homework?” I said, “Yes I am ready to help you with you with your math homework.” When I was helping him I said, “You know why I said no for copying because I don’t know if I going to get them wrong or right. He said, “That’s why you didn’t let me copy your math homework.”
After that it became fun helping Gabriel with his math homework. One of the reasons is because after I am finished helping him, were allowed to play the wii. The other reason is he gets to stay and eat a snack with me. When he left I was exhausted.

       But when he knew how to do his math homework he said, “I don’t need anymore help with my math homework.” I said, “That is good but are you coming to my house everyday.” He said, “Yes I’m still coming to your to your house everyday.”

        Later when he left to go to school, and the teacher said to turn in our homework. So when Gabriel turned in his homework. When the teacher was finished she gave us our homework back to see how we did. So when the teacher gave Gabriel his homework he got one hundred percent. I said, “Good job getting one hundred percent!” So he said, “If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t get one hundred percent. When he was finished he said “Thank you!” So when I got home I had a lovely day.

Homework Problem 

by David 

           One day with some substantial nimbus clouds I, wearing my parent’s unyielding raincoat with eight buttons was at Jason’s accommodations. He was doing a surveillance mission on his sibling. Unlike me, I was doing my intolerable math assignment. It was genuinely intolerable; I only completed two interrogations. He approached me and said “I uh… need uh… your uh… math assignment again.” “Why do you want my math assignment again?” I replied. “I need your math assignments because I want to check your reciprocations if they are erroneous!” He yelled. “Ok” I muttered. I was cogitating. I said to myself.

          “If he had my math assignment, would he alter my name?” I came up to him. He imitated my reciprocations. “Why did you duplicate my answers? “Because… because… I didn’t comprehend it and I still did not finish my math obligation in two days. I might get detention for two weeks! The school will call my parents and I’ll get grounded again, for a month!” He cried. “So, may I assist you?” I replied, curiously. “Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes…” “Ok, Ok, you can stop saying yes” I interrupted. “Do you know the subject?” I asked. “Yes.” “What is it then?” “It’s about the millionths’ place.” “Correct.” You just have to go left seven times and insert it.” “Oh, THANK YOU!!!” “OW…” I told Jason.  “Sorry.” He apologized. “Thanks, can you do it by yourself now?” I said. “Yes, just thank you for the help.” “You’re welcome.”  The next day, Jason finally turned his homework.
