Why is it the most important?
How would you use this trait in your neighborhood or at school?

  1. Hi Ms. Preston!! I think that ALL of the traits we have been talking about in Social Studies are VERY important. I think this because in a neighborhood or at school these traits are what can make a balanced and happy community. So that concludes that I believe fairness, caring, respect, responsibility and other traits can make a balanced and happy community which can help with are local schools and are neighborhood to be a better place!!

  2. I think the most important citizen trait is involvement. I think it is the most important trait because everybody should get involved with stuff like recycling and other things like cleaning the park with friends and everybody should get involved in things like sports.It is important to get involved with school to lean new things and have fun. Thats why I thing involvement is the most important citizen trait.

  3. I think respect is the most important trait because without it everyone would be rude and mean.
    Also, everyone is different in the world and it is important to respect those differences.
    Respect can help the world by making it a nicer place to live in.
    Respect can be learned, if I respect othere they will learn to respect me. Jake M

  4. I think all the traits are important becuase we can't be caring without being fair, and we can't be trustworthy without being respectful. see all traits help each other out.
    You can use these in your neighborhood by getting involved with recycle projects and be trustworthy with your parents. All traits need each other, and we need them.

  5. I think common good is a good trait because what you do for your community and school. The reason why I think common good is a good trait because you can do a lot for everyone everywhere. You ands some of your friends can pick up trash and that can be a big help to everyone and it will also keep our environment clean.

  6. I think Respect is the most important trait because you should have Respect for every one no matter how their different from you. It is important to respect others opinions, beliefs, religion, and belongings Respect is important to everyone and everything. You need to be respectful to the Earth,your parents,animals,and ect. That is why I think respect is the most important trait.

  7. I think that all of them are important but respect is the most important. I think this because if you treat others nicely they will treat you nicely too. I show this by saying, "good job" to anyone on my baseball team after they bat. I also show this at school when I am a respectful listener.

  8. I think respect is most important. Without it no one would care for anyone. I would use this by not talking while the teachers talking. Also respecting the plant by recycling and not throwing things on the ground.

  9. I think involvment is the best trait because without it no one would be able to play games together. You could be involved at school by playing a game of football with someone or playing tag with your friends. And probaly no one would have friends. Thats why i think it is the most important.

  10. I think that respect is the most important trait. If the whole world respected each other there wouldn't be any wars, fights, crimescenes, and people could live happier. Kids can be respectful at school by not gossiping, talking while the teacher is talking, and being a good classmate.

  11. All of the citizen traits up there are important. I think the most important trait is Responsibility. MY reason why is because if no one had responsibility, our world would not look good because everyone would nor do what they are supposed to. An example is say you and you friend are walking and you see a piece of trash. If non of us had responsibility, do you think you nor your friend would pick it up. Imagine if NO one picked up trash. Our world would be a big ball of trash! :(

  12. I think that responsibility is the most important citizen trait. I still believe the other traits are very important but responsibility is the most important because you are responsible for voting and if you don't vote you can not complain about who we elect for our representatives. Everyone can be responsible by voting, cleaning up trash, or even homework. Thats why i think responsibility is the most important citizen trait.

  14. I think that respect is the most important. Respect is important because where ever you are, you will always have someone who is in charge, like a parent or a boss. It is important to learn to be respectful to them. I show respect in my community by not littering. You to can show respect by cleaning up trash, being kind to everyone,and treating people the way you want to be treated! From,Riley Woodruff(:

  15. like Chole said I think all of the traits are important because if we all do our best with one of the traits we can change ourselves or maybe someone else. But if we do ALL of them be will change our school or neighborhood. If we work together we can do good things for our community.

  17. I think responsibility is the most important. I think this because you need responsibility to keep track of anything you own. You also need it for any chores that you have.

  19. I enjoyed learning about all these traits this week, although I think that citizenship is most important because we need everyone to help the USA. Examples of that are reycling, voting, and things like that. All of the traits are quite important. All citizens of the USA should have citizens.

  31. I would say the boston tea party because that made the british mad. So they closed the harbor and said no one can get it no one can get out. If i had had to live with this i would fight for freedom. Also they dont need to be paying for anything they should just be free.
