Integrity

Today the our teacher in the Reading Workshop told us to write a post about integrity. These are the questions he asked “This prods the question, does integrity matter to a sixth grader?  Should it?  Thinking back to the read aloud of Freak the Mighty, and having watched the film, The Mighty, I was thinking about Kevin’s view of integrity.  How does it compare to yours?  In a few words, does your integrity guide how you live?” This is what I wrote…

Yes I think integrity does matter to a sixth grader. And yes I think it should. Kevin’s, from Freak The Mighty, view of integrity is to never lie and to always do the right thing. Like if someone were to  tell me to steal something I wouldn’t do it. That means I have integrity. If I were to take it that would mean I would have no integrity. When I compare Kevin’s view on integrity to mine I see they are the same. I believe you shouldn’t lie and you always need to do the right thing. And yes integrity does guide my life.
