I have a good friend . His name is Lee. He is a real great person and
friend. There is this fair in town that we want to go to. However, Lee
doesnt have the money . He is willing to do any odd jobs that can help
him to earn some money. To begin with, Lee is an honest boy. As his
friend, I have never seen him cheated anyone either family or friends. He
is honest with his work and I am sure anyone who takes him to work with
will find him useful and helpful.
Besides, Lee is a very determined person. I have witnessed many times of
his determination in completing any tasks given to him. I believe you will
not regret asking him to do work like car washing or running errands for
you as he will do it in the best of his ability. As his good friend as well, I
really admire his attitude positive attitude especially in being resourceful.
He finds ways and means to achieve his dream and goals be it long term
and short term.
Finally, Lee is a hardworking person. Whoever hires Lee will be satisfied
with his work. He works hard and he is honest about it. Lee is a great boy
with many fine qualities and now he is looking for anyone who can offer
him simple work as he badly needs some money. I vote for Lee as an
errand boy, wouldnt you?

ACTIVITY 6 MOVIE REVIEW ( THEME)

- Accept any possible answerSAMPLE ANSWER
Dear Amir,
I just caught a movie last Saturday. It was Big Hero 6. I really
recommend you to watch the movie as it was so thrilling. I really like the
story. It revolved around determination, family love and friendship. The
story was about a boy named Hiro. He was a genius in Science just like
you! He was accepted to a University at the age of 14, I think! And the
best part he had a supportive brother who helped him all the way.
Unfortunately, his brother died in a mysterious fire explosion and Hiro was
devastated after that. His brother left behind a nurse robot who became
his best friend and also another 4 friends. They all turned out to be super
heroes after that! It was so exciting as they tried to nail down the villain
who Hiro believed to have murdered his brother. I want to tell you more
but you really have to go and watch the movie yourself. I love it so much
because I could see how important friends are in our lives just like how
important you are to me , Amir. Friends are the ones who help us in darker
times and it is also shows how important to choose good friends. Hey, if
you are interested , lets go and catch the movie this weekend. I dont
mind watching it another time. It is just so superb! Till then, drop me a line
and tell me whats the plan. Bye Amir.

ACTIVITY 7 MORAL VALUES

You could keep it, said Raj

Then you could have a really good time at the fair,
said Sam
Now, do you agree with Sam and Raj? If you disagree, what are your reasons. Give 2
reasons. In the empty speech bubble at the bottom, give your own advice to Lee on what do
you think he should do.

REASON 1

Lee should not keep the purse because it doesnt

belong to him. Besides, he saw the woman and was
able to return the purse back to her

REASON 2

The woman may need the money badly and it is an

unkind and dishonest to keep the purse to yourself.
(Lee)

B. What is your advice to Lee?

ACTIVITY 8

Lee, you should return the purse to its owner. Even

though, you need the money, but you never know that
the owner could be needing it more. Besides, honesty is
the best policy. You shouldnt take something that
doesnt belong to you. It is just not right!
