The Importance of Integrity

Kiwi kids news featured article.

1. Why do you think integrity is important? It is important because if you don’t have integrity then you do not trust yourself. If other people did not show integrity then you can not trust them.

2.How has your integrity or character been tested to the limit? What did you do in response? When two people ask you a question were one answer would make one person upset and the other answer would upset the other person, I said they were both wrong.

3.Do you think that integrity is a part of your nature? Do your instincts warn you when you are doing something that doesn’t show integrity? I think my instincts is to trust myself, it is a part of my nature, I don’t like when I do not show integrity.

4.Do you think the whole world could one day show integrity? If not, why might this be impossible. I think it is not possible because some people do not trust themselves and some people are not trustworthy.

5.Do you think our national and international world leaders display integrity? How and how not? Be specific. I think most prime ministers and royal people try to show integrity but they have so many people to please that they find it very hard. Sometimes they could look back on a mistake and not trust themselves.

KIwi kids news, busy kid

Critical Thinking Challenges:

1. Do you believe kids being really busy is a good or a bad thing? Why? I think that it is good and bad! If you are busy with sports or other talents you may get a job to do with them! But i can be bad because you can get stressed and very tired!

2 1/2. If you think bad, think of three solutions for this issue. I think I is bad because you can get very stressed and tired! And you could not get enough time to there self.

2 2/2. If you think good, think of three ways to encourage other kids to get busier! I think that one way is to tell them that they will get fit if they are playing sports! Another way is to say that they could be famous because of this extra work.

3. Think about the role of teachers and parents in encouraging extra-curricular activities. Is it up to them, or to the kids themselves? I think it is up to the kids, but sometimes the parent need to decide if the kids won't!

Practical Tasks:

1. Ask your parents what they think is best, and what worked with you and your siblings.

2. Make yourself a schedule for this week that keeps you busy in the afternoon or when you would usually have downtime. If it goes well you could make it permanent! Done, i don’t have a photo!

3. Research the positives and negatives of being a kid with a busy schedule. What are the short and long term effects? Link to website that I read.
