Important Words

Week 15 of the Wednesday lists
I love words and I love lists, which makes a list of words just about perfect. I have many, many words lists in old journals. This list is a bit different as it is collaborative effort. The words below are the ones my students think are important. I'll leave it to you to decide why.




Important Words

* cheerful * please * thank you * friend * you're welcome * responsibility * firefighter * stop * kindness * appreciation * self-control * curious * Army * gratitude * courage * read * respect * breathe * cerebral palsy * think * worms * chocolate * Hershey's * foggy * awesome * love * Bakugon * recess * monkey * hula * Cowabunga * tacos * dance * muffins * Yes! * freedom * learn * laugh * family * teacher * brain *

What are your important words?

I think your list is you - it's wonderful, joyful, and serious.

I feel like I could go on and on, but I'll start with:

Friend, yes, laughter, peace, latte, daughter, hope, concise.

Hmm - mommy, Jesus, depression, love, acceptance, patience, sunshine, community, family, together. That's what popped off of my head.

What a great list from your students! I am very inspired by their picks!
I have to guess though, the chocolate one came from a girl? Lol
Right now my important words are:
Love, faithfulness, Live, cherish, Life,death,family,gratitude,and most important God's Grace
(Just home from a funeral)

"You're welcome" and "Thank you" are big ones in our home. Our 3 year old is always ending his sentences with one or the other. Which, of course, makes me beam. :)

My personal fave is "Belive" because there's so much strength in that one single word.

Great post!!

Hi Relyn,

Just shows how different we all are but I think you may have had a little influence, maybe on the chocolate! :0)

Your school kids are wonderful and sensitive. My list (let us restrict it to ten would be): Joy, Laughter, Family, Friends, Sharing, Pets, Sea-breeze, Learning, Honesty and let us end with Ice-cream since it is so hot in summer, in India.
Have a lovely vacation.

Hey Relyn,
Thanks for stopping by. The early review program is on the internet not a local thing. You can do it too! Check out my link on my blog or try Librarything.com. It's listed on the right on their blog called early review program or something like that. Hope you sign up! Have a great weekend :)

Derrick, Good guess, but no. It was actually a boy who said chocolate. Mine were laugh,cheerful, and family. The rest were theirs.

I like to link my words together. I also like to learn new words. I like to taste them to see if they're the right word for the meaning.

Lists? I make them so I can get things done. If I'm writing, it's blogging or working on my book.
