Respect
Let's practice Blogging. I thought it would be appropriate to pick Respect as the topic of our first blog post. This, in my opinion, is the biggest thing one can give. To practice blogging, let's talk about respect. I will give you a few questions to get you started on this "respect" discussion.
1. What does the word Respect mean?
2. How do you show Respect?
3. How do you earn Respect?
4. How does someone LOSE respect?
5. Tell me who you should respect and why.
6. How will you earn the respect of your teachers?
7. How will you earn the respect of your classmates?
Respect, Respect, Respect. Very important Stuff. Good Luck.
