         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I do agree with this statement, but the key word for me in this sentence is <em>sometimes</em>. I do not think it’s good to lie often, but there are times where it doesn’t really matter. Think about how many times in a day students say they’ll flunk a test and end up getting a high grade? Really, it comes with the scenario.<br><br>2. I totally disagree with this statement. The first thing that comes to mind in argument against this is that, even when we face challenges that are awful in the moment, we usually end up love the memories and experience later. It helps us and makes us prouder of ourselves in the long run; I’d never get rid of it.</div><div><br>3. I do agree with this statement. Humans are very much a pack animal; it’s in our nature. Good groups can help provide many important things to us, teach us valuable lessons, and make us happier. They’re good things to have. Not all groups are good, though. Bad groups should still be avoided.<br><br>4. I don’t really like this one. It seems alright at first, but I don’t think it’s that good. Another thing that goes along with this is there aren’t really any wrong choices. And some wrong choices end up being good. One thing’s for sure, wrong choices do make us stronger, and the ability to choose is valuable.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.&nbsp; Yes, sometimes it is okay to lie. If it's for someone's protection, or their own well being. Sometimes you just have to lie or bend the truth to protect someone. Or maybe it's just for a surprise party, you can lie for that too.&nbsp;<br><br>2.&nbsp; Well, you kinda need to have difficult challenges in your life. They make you smarter and a better problems solver. sure, it would be fun never to have something go wrong, but you sometimes need things to go wrong, good things might happen in the aftermath, they are a learning experience.&nbsp;<br><br>3.&nbsp; You know, both. Humans need to socialize, we are social creatures. No matter how anti-social you are, You still want to be around someone, even if you are not talking to them. But, sometimes it's good to be alone. Being in groups can be nerve racking sometimes, and you just need to be alone and have your own space.&nbsp;<br><br>4.&nbsp; No, i'd rather make my mistakes and learn from them, instead of always doing the right thing and never learning.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.I agree that it is ok to lie. If someone is at the door asking if your parents are home saying they are in the shower maybe true or you are lying because you don't know who they are. If you lie to much it can turn on you like the boy that cried wolf.<br><br>2.I disagree with that. If you never had to experience bad times then you would never have good times. You would never learn from your mistakes<br><br>3.I agree that it is better to be apart of a group. If you are alone then you would not know how to talk to people. It would help you in the long run when you have to work with other people.<br><br>4.I disagree with that. If you were never wrong then how would you know what is right. You would also never learn from what you do wrong if you do it right all of the time</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I would agree with this statement. Lying can be harmful but in some circumstances lying is essential to keep people from harm or pain. Just imagine if we didn’t lie, surprise parties would be pointless.<br>2. I would disagree with this statement. Although difficult challenges can cause us pain, its what we learn from it that makes us stronger. Without these challenges we would be weak and more vulnerable to the smallest of challenges instead of taking them head on.&nbsp;<br>3. I would agree with this statement. Being alone, well, is lonely. Having people around you encouraging you and pushing you to be best self. It also helps to have someone to talk to, to get different points of views.&nbsp;<br>4. I would disagree with this statement. I believe I would like to the freedom to make my own decisions even if it’s the wrong one. Making those decisions help he learn and grow as a person.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.</div><ul><li>It only depends on the lie itself, if it were to protect someone until further notice then I feel like it would be okay to lie. If it were to be because of protecting yourself, then I don’t think that it is okay to lie.</li></ul><div>2.</div><ul><li>If we never did, then we I don’t think that we would learn from our own selves. Everyone should experience something difficult so we can all adapt to different changes.</li></ul><div>3.</div><ul><li>In some situations, it is better, but if it is personal, then I don’t feel like you should be in a group unless it also involves them personally. It would make sense to have some friends to help guide you along.</li></ul><div>4.</div><ul><li>I don’t think that making choices for yourself should be dependant on other people but yourself. If everything was made for us, then we would never know right from&nbsp; wrong, it wouldn’t really be fair to the people themselves.</li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.I disagree with this statement because personally I think that even though every single person does lie and sometimes we don’t even realize that we are telling little white lies, I still don’t think it’s okay. Lying may seem like a solution in some situations and it's easy to do but&nbsp; lying never actually benefits you in the long haul.&nbsp;<br>2.I disagree with this statement because I believe that experiencing difficult challenges shapes us into better people and teaches us so much. Going through a difficult situation can really make you into a stronger and better person and you learn so many important things from experiencing it.&nbsp;<br>3.I agree with this statement .When you’re apart of a group you have people who will be there to support you and help you through many situations and sometimes you can’t just do everything on your own and you need help from&nbsp; someone.<br>4.I disagree with this statement because personally I like being able to make my own choices even if they are wrong. I don’t like the idea of all my choices being made by someone else even if they are the right choices because I want to have the choice and not be controlled by someone else.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. It agree with this statement because it is okay to lie if it is for something good. If you are protecting someone or something, or helping someone out, it is okay to lie.&nbsp;<br><br>2. I disagree with this statement because difficult things in life make you stronger. You could appreciate things more if difficult challenges stood in your way that made you work for it.&nbsp;<br><br>3. I agree with this statement because people need companionship. You need friends and people you can count on when you have trouble.&nbsp;<br><br>4. I disagree with this statement because you need to learn from your mistakes. People need to know how to make the right choice, not have someone make it for them.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. It is okay to sometimes tell a little lie. Like if you were throwing a surprise party you have to lie to the person being surprised. But sometimes you just have to lie because it might be the right thing to do.<br><br>2. I think it would not be better to not experience any difficult challenges in life because the difficult challenges is how we learn. If we don't experience the difficult times we will never learn and we will not know how to have fun.<br><br>3. It is better to be apart of a group but it is also good to be alone sometimes. It depends on your mood and how you are feeling that day. But you should definitely have a group of friends to talk to and have fun with.<br><br>4. I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices because then again we can learn from our mistakes. If we don't learn we will never know and sometimes when you do the wrong thing you have learned something very important.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I agree that&nbsp; sometimes, it’s okay to lie, because sometimes you need to lie to not hurt someone’s feelings or to protect their reputation. Most of the time lying is bad, but it is easier to lie, than to hurt someone’s feelings.<br><br>2. I do not agree, because experiencing difficult challenges in life are what make up your moral character and who you are.&nbsp; If you didn’t go through tough challenges, I don’t think you would even be a person anymore.<br><br>3. I agree at is is better to be apart of a group. Being apart of a group is what makes your “people skills” develop, especially if you have a large role in it. Being alone sometimes is good, but if you’re alone all the time you won’t know how to talk and interact with people.<br><br>4. I believe that I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choice, because wrong choices can lead to good things. As they say, sometimes a door to an opportunity has to close, for an even better one to open</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I think it is ok to lie sometimes. To me, it is ok to lie to help somebody feel better.<br>2. I think that it wouldn’t be better to have no difficult challenges in life. The things that you fail at are what make you who you are.<br>3. It is better to be a part of a group because no one works better alone in my opinion. I couldn’t imagine being without a friend or a group.<br>4. I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices then to have someone else make them for me. What if I don’t agree with that person’s choice, then I wouldn't be happy and the point of a utopia, is everyone is happy.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Yes because if it is for the better it should be allowed.<br>2.No because society wouldn't be able to grow without issues. We need to have issues to continue in our species.</div><div><br>3.Sometimes yes, but if it is something like a test, no never.</div><div><br>4.No because not all right choices are what you want. It would take the fun out of life.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I disagree with that. I disagree because if you lie you might get yourself in more trouble than if you just tell the truth.&nbsp;<br>2. I disagree with that. I disagree because If you don’t experience difficult challenges you may not know how to handle tough situations when they come your way. So I would rather experience them now so that way I know how to handle them.&nbsp;<br>3. I agree with that. I would rather be with a group. That way you have someone to talk to and if a scary situations pops up, you have someone else to face it with you.&nbsp;<br>4. I disagree with that. I disagree because I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices. Even if they were the wrong choices, I would still learn from my mistakes.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Yes, I agree because if you are in a bad situation like when it’s a matter of life and death and you have to lie to protect someone else's life. Otherwise, I don't think it's okay to lie because then people won't trust you and lying often hurts people more than the truth does.</div><div>2. I don’t agree because&nbsp; we couldn’t get stronger and learn from our mistakes.&nbsp;<br>3. I agree because when you are in a group you can have more fun. And I also think that you tend to be more happy.<br>4. No, I don’t agree because we can’t learn because we wouldn’t make any mistakes. I like to have freedom because you feel more alive when you have the freedom to choose what you want to do.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.&nbsp;<br>I think that it is OK to lie sometimes but you should not get carried away and begin to lie all of the time. I think that it is OK to lie because sometime it is better for that person to not know the truth.<br>2.&nbsp;<br>Not I think that the difficulties that a person faces defines the way that they are. I also think that if there were no difficulties then people would become dependent on those people to not have difficulties.<br>3.&nbsp;<br>I think that it is better to be in a group more often than not because it is always to have other input and more brains working on something. But sometimes it is better to just work alone like the quote “if you want&nbsp; something done right you have to do it yourself.<br>4.&nbsp;<br>I disagree because what if the right choice is not the choice that you wanted to be made. Or who knows if by letting them make your own choices they may not stop there and maybe soon you have no control over any of your actions.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Yes it is because what if you are a grown up and have kids that ask you a lot of questions, you could lie depending on what the question was. If it's something personal you might not want to lie because if you do the person will find out sooner or later and they will probably get mad that you didn’t tell them. .(depending on what it was about)<br><br>2. I think It's better to experience difficult challenges in life because if you don’t then you won’t be prepared for you kids or&nbsp; yourself in the future.&nbsp;<br><br>3. I think It is better to be part of a group, because if you are alone you won’t have any friends and then you will be alone forever. It is possible to not want to be around people.&nbsp;<br><br>4. I would want to have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices, because who knows what wrong decisions they could be.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I believe that sometimes it is okay to lie. If you are planning a surprise for someone and they ask you about it you can’t exactly tell them the truth because then you will ruin the surprise. I think it’s okay to lie if the truth will come out later.&nbsp;<br><br>2. I disagree. In life you need some challenges or it would get boring. Sometimes, difficult challenges can make you stronger and prepare you for other challenges that may be heading your way in the future.&nbsp;<br><br>3. I would say that most of the time it is better to be part of a group. It is never fun to be all alone all of the time. It really depends on the person to decide whether they like to be in a group or not.&nbsp;<br><br>4. I would not rather have the right choice made for me. Every person has the freedom to make their own choices and choose their own path in life.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. </div><ul><li>I think sometimes it is okay to lie as long as it is not a huge lie. For example if someone asked you when you are by yourself you would tell them no and say your parents will be right back.</li></ul><div><br>2. Yes in some cases and no in some other cases. It all depends on what the challenges are and when they are and how they affect you<br><br>3. I think it is better to be part of a group. It good to be a part of a group because you will have friends to talk to.<br><br>4. </div><ul><li>I would rather have freedom and make wrong choices. There is a few reasons but one is that you are free and you can do anything but if you are not free you have every very strict. </li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.&nbsp;<br>Yes, I have to agree, sometimes it is okay to tell little white lies. An example would be if you are telling a lie to keep someone safe, or telling a lie so nobody gets hurt.<br><br>2.&nbsp;<br>I disagree, if you had no difficult challenges, then when could you learn. Learning anything new is always a challenge. Having to think about things a little harder isn’t always a bad thing. It can overall make you a better person.</div><div><br>3.<br>I agree and disagree with this one. Honestly it depends on what you’re doing. Some people like to work alone on things like projects while others like to work in groups.</div><div><br>4.<br>I have to disagree. I would rather make some wrong choices. What good does always doing the right thing do? Nobody would probably learn anything because you wouldn’t do anything wrong.</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

It is also ok to lie if you are trying to help someone else or if it is a little white lie.</li></ul><div>2.&nbsp;</div><ul><li>I think that it is important to experience difficult situations in order to improve your response to the situation.

When you don't have the right to make decision it takes part of your humanity away.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.&nbsp;</div><ul><li>I agree that it's alright to lie sometimes because if you don't lie then you could hurt someone's feelings. Even though lying is a terrible thing to do everybody does it. And in some situations you just have to lie. Also honesty is not the best policy.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</li></ul><div>2.</div><ul><li>I would have to disagree that it would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life because if you never have to deal with that then you will never learn from your mistakes. I also think experiencing difficult challenges makes you a stronger and better person. Also having difficulty challenges makes you a smarter and better person.</li></ul><div>3.</div><ul><li>I would have to agree that it is better to be a part of a group than to be alone because when I am with a group of people I seem to be more happier. Also being with a group makes things more fun and interesting. And doing stuff with a group is better than doing it alone such as going to the mall. &nbsp;</li></ul><div>4.</div><ul><li>I would have to disagree that I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices because I like having the freedom to make my own wrong choices. And if I couldn't choose my life choices, I would never learn from them. Learning from mistakes helps me be a better and smarter&nbsp; person.&nbsp;</li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I agree with this statement because if you lie for someone else's protection. I do not think you should lie all the time though or if you are lying for no reason.&nbsp;<br>2.&nbsp; I do not agree with this statement because if you do not have challenges in your life you will never develop problem solving skills. Also if you don't have any challenges you will never have the feeling of accomplishment.<br>3. I agree with this statement because if you are in a group they can help you accomplish your goals if they are too hard to accomplish on your own&nbsp;</div><div>4. I do not agree with this statement because if you make the right choices you cant become smart enough to not do that again.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I think sometimes it’s okay to lie because if the lie brings a smile to someone’s face and make he/she happy, that is a lie for a good purpose.<br><br>2.Well yes, life would be a lot easier if we never had to experience difficult challenges in life. But, in reality, life is full of challenges, and when we face these challenges actually it is a great-learning experience which helps to develop a skill to tackle other challenges in future and helps you gain self-confidence.</div><div><br></div><div>3.&nbsp; Yes, it would be better to be a part of a group rather than to be alone, because if you are in a group than you collaborate with others and you share ideas between each other which helps you to know other’s perspectives in a same situation. This also develops our skill to work in groups.</div><div><br>4. In my opinion, I would rather have the right choice made for me because I don’t want to have the freedom to make my own decisions and regret for it later.. I would like to someone else make right choices in my life rather than ruining my life with the freedom of making my own wrong choices.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

No, I think you should experience difficult challenges in life.

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>1. Yes I do think it is okay to lie sometimes, because there are certain situations where you might need to lie to save/protect yourself. But it is not okay to lie when you know that it isn’t right.</li><li>2.&nbsp; No It wouldn’t be better because going through difficult situations or challenges in life, can often help you in some way. After you overcome that challenge you can reflect on it, and see how it affected your way.</li><li>3.Yes it is better to be apart of the group because it can keep you safe. If somebody were to try&nbsp; and hurt you while you’re by yourself then you can’t really do much, but if you have more than one person, then it gives you a better chance of protecting yourself.&nbsp;</li><li>4.No I would rather make my own wrong choices, because if someone makes all of the decisions for you, then you can’t learn form those mistakes, but if you mess up or make the wrong decision, then you can learn from them and fix what you did wrong.</li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

We're not gonna understand if it’s always good in life.<br>3.It’s better to be in a group because it is healthier for you.

Without challenge we wouldn't learn anything know any thing or be anything but mindless shells living a senseless life.&nbsp;</li><li>3. With others one is made stronger we sharpen each other lift each other up. When the storms come they are a rock to hold onto. When the wind rages and the thunder boomers they are hands to grip and never let go.&nbsp;</li><li>4. With no choice comes no freedom no new experiences. With no choice we have no life. A dog on a leash is safer with a short leash than a long leash or no leash with no leash it could run into the road and with a long leash it could choke itself. &nbsp;</li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I agree because than if you don't want to hurt someone's feeling or something like that than it is a good thing. But if you do it too much than it is a very bad thing<br>2. I disagree because than you can't really learn for yourself if you already know everything and there's not really any point of even having those challenges<br>3. Depending on the person that you are like if you are doing homework some people like to do it alone and some like the help of others<br>4. I disagree because then you don't really know what the right choices really are. if you make the wrong choices you will know what you did wrong for next time</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. In my opinion I think that it is okay to lie sometimes. I think that it is okay to lie sometimes because if a person is going through a hard time you sometimes have to lie instead of making them feel worse.&nbsp;<br>2. In my opinion I think that it would not be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. I think this because if we were not given these difficult experiences we would never realize&nbsp;<br>3. In my opinion I think that it is better to be a part of a group. I think this because without people you would always be lonely and not ever have anybody to talk to. &nbsp;<br>4. In my opinion I would rather have the right choices made for me. I think this because if you make a wrong choice something bad could happen to you or you could get hurt. If the right choice is made for you then there would be less of a chance of something bad happening to you.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.Yes, I think that it is alright to lie sometimes because it can be for a good reason. One reason could be to protect someone so they do not get hurt.<br>2.No, because sometimes i think that things like that can shape you as a person. I also think that it can help build character.<br>3.Yes, I think this is very trust because with a group of people you have a lot of people to talk to and to hangout with. You can also have a place to go and you have friends as well.<br>4.No, Because with freedom you can have that right to pink what you want to do. Another reason is that people learn from their mistakes therefore i say no.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I agree with this because you could be lying to be keeping them safe. If you are lying to them to keep them safe from something I feel like that is ok.<br><br>2. I disagree with this because you have to face challenges in life otherwise it would just be boring. The challenges in life and what shape you as a person.<br><br>3. I agree because being alone in life would be terrible no one to talk. If you were alone for your entire life there really no point to live you never get to interact with others.<br><br>4. I disagree because if someone is making all of your choices what's the point then. I feel as if you don't get to choose what you want to what's the point.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I believe that it is okay to lie because you're trying to protect a person that you love. I think that it is not okay when you lie not trying to protect anybody and you end up hurting them more than if you would’ve said the truth.<br><br>2. I think that it wouldn’t be better because most challenges are to test us on how smart we are/how easy it is for us to fail. I think that if there were no challenges the smallest things in life could just set us off like a bomb.<br><br>3. I think that it is better to be in a group because you have certain people to rely on that could end up being there for you for life. If you weren’t in a group you would be sad all the time and depressed.<br><br>4. I think that I would rather have somebody make choices for me because then life wouldn’t be as stressful. Where as today when you make your own choices people end up making wrong decisions imagine if that didn’t happen, it would be so easy.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>]]></description>

Difficult challenges are a chance to learn from them. They also give you the chance to grow from them.<br>3.It would depend on the situation. It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone if the situation absolutely needs a group to be done.<br>4I agree and disagree with this statement. It would be better to have more freedom but to also be told the right choices once and awhile.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br>1. Speaker and Audience:<br>Who said this? Who is it said to and what is the purpose?<br><br>- Jonas said this and his rules for his job said it. It’s purpose was to tell Jonas that he is allowed to lie with his new job and he was in awe when he found that out because ever since he was a little kid he was taught to never lie.<br><br>2. Context:<br>What is happening in the story when it is being said?<br><br>- When this quote was said, Jonas had just gotten the the rules for his new job and the last rule allows him to lie and he doesn’t like to lie or be untruthful.<br><br>3. Significance:<br>What does the quote mean? What does it reveal about the characters/conflict/theme?<br><br>- This quote means that Jonas has the freedom to lie whenever he wants. This reveals about Jonas that he is the kind of person who never lies, which isn’t unusual in this book because everyone tells the truth always, and he doesn’t like to lie or ever have the urge to lie.<br><br>4. Connections: <br>What does this quote mean to you? How do you see this idea in the world?<br><br>- This quote means to me that no one in that world is allowed to lie so they need to be told that they are allowed to lie. This idea in this world wouldn’t make our world that different because we lie all of the time even though it is frowned upon we still do it. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. - <br></strong>I agree with this statement because sometimes it is okay to lie. I believe this because sometimes lying to someone is the best way to keep them from getting hurt. You can lie to keep people out of harm’s way.<br><strong>It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. - <br></strong>I think that having bad experiences in life can help you, but it can also harm you. It can help you because having to go through something bad can make you stronger and smarter from that experience. However, some experiences in life can impact you so bad that you cannot recover from them. <br><strong>It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone.  - <br></strong>I agree with this statement because I think that you should never be alone. Sometimes, you might want to be alone, and I think that it is good to be by yourself for a little bit of time each day. However, you should have people around you that are your friends so that you have someone to talk to.<br><strong>I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices. - <br></strong>I disagree with this because you should be able to make your own choices. Even if you end up making the wrong choice, you will learn more from that then always having the right choice decided for you.</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

You also have to lie sometimes about your age to get a video game.<br><br>2. False because the more difficult the challenge the more experience you have in life. I say this because you can learn many life lessons on your journey.<br><br>3. I agree because two is greater than one and three is greater than two. Like they say in the movies teamwork makes the dreamwork.<br><br>4. I disagree because the best part of life is making your own decisions. I mean what's the point of living if you can't make your own choices.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. I think that lying is bad but sometimes it is okay. If it depends on someone's life then it is okay to lie but if it is for something that will save someone's reputation or prevent them from not getting hurt then it is okay.<br>2. I think that it is better to experience difficult things in life because it makes us tougher. People need to go through bad stuff to realize when the good stuff is happening.<br>3. I think that teamwork makes everything go faster and easy but sometimes you have to do stuff alone. Some stuff you can’t do with a group because you are the only one who can figure it out.<br>4. I would rather have freedom to make my own choices. Even if what I choose is wrong, I can still learn from my mistakes instead of having it done for me.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br></div><ul><li>I agree, because sometimes it is to protect yourself. You on the other hand won't always be helping yourself out because your parents may already know the answer and then you go out lying to them about what you did/said etc. At this moment you are really screwed. </li><li>I disagree with this due to the fact that in life you will always have hard or difficult things come up in your lifetime and you will need to know how to deal with them. Or you may not be exposed to the real world before you head off to college or anything really. </li><li>I agree with this, because you will get the feel of talking with other people around your general age group. YOu will also get exposed to talking about real life situations. </li><li>I disagree with this, because when my mom makes my choices she will always make me do my sisters chores and when i get to make my own choices i don't do them and ask my dad if he can take me shopping then i use the lying part and say mom said i didn't have to do my chores and that i can go to the mall even tho she told me to do my chores. </li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div> Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. <strong>(2 or more sentences) <br>- </strong>I agree and disagree with this because though you should never lie sometimes it is almost necessary. For instance let’s say that you are throwing your best friend a  surprise party. If you want it to be a surprise you must tell you friend a little lie. <br><br>It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. <strong>(2 or more sentences)<br>- </strong>I disagree because I feel like difficult challenges are thing that make us stronger and prepare us for the next time something bad come about. Hard times teach us the things we have done wrong and help us to achieve better later on.<br><br>It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. <strong>(2 or more sentences)<br>- </strong>I agree and disagree because it honestly depends on the situation. Somethings you have to have someone who you work well with to help you and other times it is better if you just do something by yourself. In a group you can here what others have to say and their opinions on something where as being alone helps you so you don't rely on someone to do the work for you.<br><br>I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.</div><div><strong>(2 or more sentences)<br>- </strong>I disagree because  If you have someone making the choices for you then you will never have the chance to make the wrong ones and learn from them. I would much rather have the freedom to make my own choices even if I make the wrong choice. I feel like if I let someone else choose for me it would be like they were controlling me.</div><div><br></div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br></div><ul><li>Sometimes its OK if its for the better. If it’s a white lie, and saves someone from getting their feelings hurt of whatever, it’s fine most of the time.</li><li>No, since challenges make you stronger. Think about it, they don’t want antibiotics in meat anymore because it weakens our immune system, it’s the same type of things with challenges to our life.</li><li>No, not always. That “group” could be the mafia or something and that’s for sure not good. However, there’s good groups such as boy scouts and such.</li><li>I’d rather make my own choices, wrong or not. It strengthens you for other problems, such as having challenges in life. Choices form a better person (usually) in the end because you learn from them.</li></ul>]]></description>

No it would not be better to never experience difficult challenges in life. If you never face hard time you will not be built up for the time that get really hard<br><br>3. It all depends on the person, what there doing and what is going on.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. <strong>(2 or more sentences)</strong></div><ul><li>I think that it is very wrong to lie. Why, because when you tell a lie it is hard to not tell another one and another one, then you will be in a big mess that you will have no idea how to clean up, and also if you just tell the truth in the first place then it will be a lot easier to ask for forgiveness. </li></ul><div>2. It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. <strong>(2 or more sentences)</strong></div><ul><li>I think that it is good to experience difficult challenges in life. Why, because if you didn’t then you wouldn’t know what to do if something bad were to happen that has never happened before. You also might become a fake kind of person. </li></ul><div>3. It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. <strong>(2 or more sentences)</strong></div><ul><li>I think that it is better to be a part of a group. Why, because if you are in trouble your group can help you, they will be there when you need them and you are there for them. If you were alone then it might be hard for you to defend yourself, at the least two is better than one.  </li></ul><div>4. I  would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.</div><div><strong>(2 or more sentences)</strong></div><ul><li>I don’t know what is better. Why, because making the wrong choice can be what you need to make the right choice, and sometimes the “right” choice might not be the best way to figure things out. Also if you are given the freedom to choose you might make the right decision anyway. </li></ul>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1.Agree, i think its okay to lie sometimes because you could be protecting one another from something in a situation. It depends on the situation.<br>2.</div><ul><li>Disagree i think challenges shape you into the person you are, it helps you learn from them and try to do better next time. Some people might think it would be better to have no challenges because it would make life easier but then you wouldn't learn.</li></ul><div>3. </div><ul><li>Agree, but it would depend on the situation. because being part of a group means that you have people there with you along the way. They are there to back you up in a way possible. They help you grow and learn.</li></ul><div>4. </div><ul><li>Agree but disagree at the same time. Agree because at points it would be easier for the right choice to be made for me because it would help me but then im not learning from anything so it wont better me. Disagree also because soemtimes you need to be on your own and think for yourself.</li></ul>]]></description>

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I disagree to this statement and here is why. if you lie to someone about something and then they tell someone else you forget about what you're lie was and they ask you and you make up different story and then they said the story they heard from a friend. And you say they made it up. That can tear up a friendly relationship with you're frend

Sometimes its good to lie like if your with someone you think is lying to you can lie to get the truth out of them. But i dont suggest lying because if you are in trouble with a cop and you lie they can easily catch you lying and then you will be in more trouble
I agree cause if you are a mean person and you bully people and all of a sudden they commit suicide they probably did it because of you. So expeirenceing challenges could change you from a mean person to a really nice person.
Sometimes because if your with a group of freinds and they all do something bad then you will get in trouble but if then again you are going to need a group of friends to help with things but being alone it can be harder to do bad things if your smart about it
I dis agree because if you always make the right choices you will never learn. But if you make those wrong choices you can learn from them

Yes,under certain circumstanes. If the lie will damage or hurt someones reputation then it is not okay. But if the lie is something like a good superise therefor i say it is okay.

I think having difficult challenges in life is  a good thing because you do learn from them. Also you could stop someone or guide someone so they dont go through the situation.


Sometimes yes and sometimes no, because sometimes you need to focus and not have all distractions. And then yes so you are not sad and lonely

1.Yes, it depends on the situation. Lying can make things a lot worse in the long run. If your lying to protect someone's feelings it would be different. 
2.No, because the problems that you go through make you who you are. If nothing bad ever happened then we would never know when to stop. 
3.Yes, you can get into some trouble if your in a group. If your by yourself the decisions you make is your fault. 
4.I would rather have the choice to make my own decisions. lt´s my life and when I make a mistake I want to be able to suffer the consequences.

1. 
I think it is because if something bad could happen if you didn't lie, but also if you do lie then there can be some consequences if it's something serious you lied about
2. 
I disagree because if you never have challenges then you won't learn on how to understand what other people are going through or you will never get better at something
3. 
Sometimes you will need to learn how to do stuff on your own
4. 
I disagree because you live and learn from your mistakes, and if you just had every choice made for you then you wont really have any relationships with anyone
Maggie Schommer 1.No, because if you tell this one little lie. That one tiny little lie can follow you everywhere and sooner or later the truth will come out.
        Maggie Schommer                                     1.No, because if you tell this one little lie. That one tiny little lie can follow you everywhere and sooner or later the truth will come out.
2. no , if you never have to experience challenges. then what is life, life is full of them and that's what keeps you going 

3.Yes it is better to be apart of a group, you can ask for help when you need it and it gives you people to confide in and to your feelings to. 
4. 
I would like to have the freedom to make my own choice because if someone else makes it for me i may have the experience to make my own choices ever. and if it comes down to one or the other like family of friend there is no right choice.

1.)
yes, sometimes you do need to tell a lie in order to help somebody or protect someone. It can help in some situations      
 2.)
 think it would be worse for you in the long run, because then you never learn and grow from those difficult times. So when something difficult does happen you won’t know how to deal with it. 
3.) I think it is better to be in a group because than you have a support system and you can take care of each other and help one another. 
4.)
I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices, because then I learn something from them.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
No, because if you lie you won’t stop. The lie will get bigger and bigger until the true comes out.
It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
No, because difficult challenges grow people in to the person they will become. No difficult challenges no truly good people in the world who will give back because they know how it feels.

1: Although it is bad, you can still lie. You can still lie if its to keep people safe or to help others
2: I don’t think it would be better to not experience any difficulties in life. In life, in order to grow up and mature you need to have some type of difficulties that hinder you.
3: It is sometimes better to be part of a group than to be alone. I say this because some days people just need to be alone more than in a group, but other days it is better to be in a group because that group can help with many things.
4: I would not have the right choice made for me instead of me being able to make the wrong choices. I say this because everyone needs to be wrong once in a while.

1.
It is okay to lie sometimes but not all the time. Because it can get you into either trouble or get you out of certain situations.
2. 
No it would not be better to not to have to experience difficult changes in life. Because if we never had to experience difficult things then we would be very weak and more than likely not be able to defend ourselves.

3.

Sometimes it is better to be part of a group, but sometimes it is not. Because you could make enemies while in a group and sometimes you could make friends.
4.

I disagree. I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices because it can be a big learning experience so that I won’t do it the next time.

1. Yes it depends on how far the lie can go. But sometimes people can’t handle the truth and it isn’t terrible to lie. 

2. No. We need to experience the worst in life to understand when it gets good. Life isn't perfect and we as humans need build a immunity like disease

3. Depends on what th group is about  if the group is doing something wrong or making you do something wrong. then yes it is better to be alone and proud that you still have your dignity and move on.

1.Agree, i think its okay to lie sometimes because you could be protecting one another from something in a situation. It depends on the situation.
2.
Disagree i think challenges shape you into the person you are, it helps you learn from them and try to do better next time. Some people might think it would be better to have no challenges because it would make life easier but then you wouldn't learn.
3. 
Agree, but it would depend on the situation. because being part of a group means that you have people there with you along the way. They are there to back you up in a way possible. They help you grow and learn.
4. 
Agree but disagree at the same time. Agree because at points it would be easier for the right choice to be made for me because it would help me but then im not learning from anything so it wont better me. Disagree also because soemtimes you need to be on your own and think for yourself.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. I think it’s ok to lie sometimes, It can be useful for some situations.

 It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. I think it would be worse. Because if you didn’t then if they did happen you wouldn’t have any experience with them. 

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. I think it would be better. When your alone you have no one to talk to about what your feeling and there’s no one to distract you from who you really are. 

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
I would not like to have my choices made for me. It would be dumb because I could get stuck doing something I don’t like.

1. Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is very wrong to lie. Why, because when you tell a lie it is hard to not tell another one and another one, then you will be in a big mess that you will have no idea how to clean up, and also if you just tell the truth in the first place then it will be a lot easier to ask for forgiveness. 
2. It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is good to experience difficult challenges in life. Why, because if you didn’t then you wouldn’t know what to do if something bad were to happen that has never happened before. You also might become a fake kind of person. 
3. It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is better to be a part of a group. Why, because if you are in trouble your group can help you, they will be there when you need them and you are there for them. If you were alone then it might be hard for you to defend yourself, at the least two is better than one.  
4. I  would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
I don’t know what is better. Why, because making the wrong choice can be what you need to make the right choice, and sometimes the “right” choice might not be the best way to figure things out. Also if you are given the freedom to choose you might make the right decision anyway.

t would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life.
I do not think this is true because without these difficult times your personality would be bland and distasteful. But when you do endure these hard times you build character and become relatable.

1. Sometimes it is okay to lie. I think it is okay to lie because it can keep a person very calm during a stressful situation. 

2. No it would not be better to never experience difficult challenges in life. If you never face hard time you will not be built up for the time that get really hard

3. It all depends on the person, what there doing and what is going on. I say that because sometimes people work better by themselves then with a group and other times people need that help from other people 

4. I would rather have the choice to make my own choices. We grow from our past and our experiences in  life, and if we do not have that then we will not grow to be better people.
Carter

Sometimes its OK if its for the better. If it’s a white lie, and saves someone from getting their feelings hurt of whatever, it’s fine most of the time.
No, since challenges make you stronger. Think about it, they don’t want antibiotics in meat anymore because it weakens our immune system, it’s the same type of things with challenges to our life.
No, not always. That “group” could be the mafia or something and that’s for sure not good. However, there’s good groups such as boy scouts and such.
I’d rather make my own choices, wrong or not. It strengthens you for other problems, such as having challenges in life. Choices form a better person (usually) in the end because you learn from them.

1. I think that lying is bad but sometimes it is okay. If it depends on someone's life then it is okay to lie but if it is for something that will save someone's reputation or prevent them from not getting hurt then it is okay.
2. I think that it is better to experience difficult things in life because it makes us tougher. People need to go through bad stuff to realize when the good stuff is happening.
3. I think that teamwork makes everything go faster and easy but sometimes you have to do stuff alone. Some stuff you can’t do with a group because you are the only one who can figure it out.
4. I would rather have freedom to make my own choices. Even if what I choose is wrong, I can still learn from my mistakes instead of having it done for me.

I agree, because sometimes it is to protect yourself. You on the other hand won't always be helping yourself out because your parents may already know the answer and then you go out lying to them about what you did/said etc. At this moment you are really screwed. 
I disagree with this due to the fact that in life you will always have hard or difficult things come up in your lifetime and you will need to know how to deal with them. Or you may not be exposed to the real world before you head off to college or anything really. 
I agree with this, because you will get the feel of talking with other people around your general age group. YOu will also get exposed to talking about real life situations. 
I disagree with this, because when my mom makes my choices she will always make me do my sisters chores and when i get to make my own choices i don't do them and ask my dad if he can take me shopping then i use the lying part and say mom said i didn't have to do my chores and that i can go to the mall even tho she told me to do my chores.

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
I think that sometimes it is better to be in a group and sometimes it is better to be alone. With a group you guys might not communicate well or be slowed down, and alone you won't have the assistance and company of others.

Yes, I do agree with this statement. If it is a lie that will keep someone safe or is for the benefit of someone it can be okay to lie.
I strongly disagree with this statement. If you never experience difficult challenges than you don’t grow as much as a person or learn some valuable life lessons. 
I  both agree and disagree with this statement.  I feel like there are certain situations where being alone can benefit you, and certain ones where being part of a group or team can also benefit you.

Yes, sometimes the truth hurts too much. It can be more beneficial to keep something secret.
No, you need to go through some real challenges  in order to learn about yourself. Hardships in life can make you a better person, have more empathy for other people, and be more humble.
It depends on the situation. I think it’s good to be apart of a teams sometimes, that’s why a lot of people including myself love sports.  You also need time alone to relax and learn about other things you enjoy doing, which is why it's good to spend time alone.
No, how can you expect to learn anything doing this. Sometimes the wrong choice is even more worth it in the long run and chances are you won’t look back and regret it.

Conner Andree

Yes when you did something that hurt someone or something happened in the someones life. No because you should only speak the truth.

No because it shapes who you are as a person. It also is the rough spots in life you have to get past

Yes because they help guide you through life. It also helps when you have a job and work with someone.

Yes because then you have a easy path through life. Then you will never get in trouble , and you'll never cause harm to anyone.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. - 
I agree with this statement because sometimes it is okay to lie. I believe this because sometimes lying to someone is the best way to keep them from getting hurt. You can lie to keep people out of harm’s way.
It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. - 
I think that having bad experiences in life can help you, but it can also harm you. It can help you because having to go through something bad can make you stronger and smarter from that experience. However, some experiences in life can impact you so bad that you cannot recover from them. 
It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone.  - 
I agree with this statement because I think that you should never be alone. Sometimes, you might want to be alone, and I think that it is good to be by yourself for a little bit of time each day. However, you should have people around you that are your friends so that you have someone to talk to.
I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices. - 
I disagree with this because you should be able to make your own choices. Even if you end up making the wrong choice, you will learn more from that then always having the right choice decided for you.


Colby Amundson
Colby Amundson
1. I agree because you sometimes have to stretch the truth so the person's feelings doesn't get hurt. You also have to lie sometimes about your age to get a video game.

2. False because the more difficult the challenge the more experience you have in life. I say this because you can learn many life lessons on your journey.

3. I agree because two is greater than one and three is greater than two. Like they say in the movies teamwork makes the dreamwork.

4. I disagree because the best part of life is making your own decisions. I mean what's the point of living if you can't make your own choices.
Carsten Schult
Carsten Schult
1.If in the grand scheme of things it will benefit you or the other person. Only in some circumstances.
2.No, because it’s the difficult challenges that will shape who you are as a person. It will show who you are also
3. Sometimes, of the group is going to slow you down then you would rather be alone. if the group with speed you up then the group is very useful
4. No, of you can’t make the wrong choice and never become wiser then you will always lean on someone else and not be able to do anything yourself. You have to be able to tell right and wrong and making wrong decisions is part of that
Madison Daly
Madison Daly
 Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences) 
- I agree and disagree with this because though you should never lie sometimes it is almost necessary. For instance let’s say that you are throwing your best friend a  surprise party. If you want it to be a surprise you must tell you friend a little lie. 

It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
- I disagree because I feel like difficult challenges are thing that make us stronger and prepare us for the next time something bad come about. Hard times teach us the things we have done wrong and help us to achieve better later on.

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
- I agree and disagree because it honestly depends on the situation. Somethings you have to have someone who you work well with to help you and other times it is better if you just do something by yourself. In a group you can here what others have to say and their opinions on something where as being alone helps you so you don't rely on someone to do the work for you.

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
- I disagree because  If you have someone making the choices for you then you will never have the chance to make the wrong ones and learn from them. I would much rather have the freedom to make my own choices even if I make the wrong choice. I feel like if I let someone else choose for me it would be like they were controlling me.

1:I agree with this, but only when your in immediate danger or you absolutely need too. I don't think it's ok to lie to your parents because it could get you in trouble or it could possibly keep you out of danger.

2:No, if you never experience them then when they happen then you won’t  know how to react.But if you don't and you will never have to then i guess you're just a luck person 

3:Not always because sometimes you just need to be alone.But when you need to it's always nice to have someone to talk to about all your problems.

4:No, everyone should be able to make their own choices even if they are wrong.What will you learn if someone always makes the right choice but then you are given the chance to make your own and it's wrong, you won’t ever learn.

The Giver Quote Analysis - Chs 6-11


Speaker and Audience:Who said this? Who is it said to and what is the purpose?


 | The rules for Jonas’ assignment. If someone askes what he knows
Context:What is happening in the story when it is being said?


 | If Jonas can, then who else can?
Significance:What does the quote mean? What does it reveal about the characters/conflict/theme?


 | To take everything being said with a dumptruck of salt 
Connections: What does this quote mean to you? How do you see this idea in the world?




 | You can’t be sure of everything said 


Putting it all together:
Introduce the quote:When (event from the book-context) happened, (character’s name-speaker) says… | 
Jonas wanted to know if his family unit was liers 
Paraphase:“In other words…” | You don't have to tell what you know 
Analyze:Explain significance, tone/mood, literary device:“The author is trying to make us see that…” | Sceptical 
Evaluate:Why is this quote important? What real world applications and connections can be drawn from the meaning of the quote?“This story/passage had a significant impact on my thinking about…” | 
It is important because now we know that the citizens can’t have these memories.

1. Speaker and Audience:
Who said this? Who is it said to and what is the purpose?

- Jonas said this and his rules for his job said it. It’s purpose was to tell Jonas that he is allowed to lie with his new job and he was in awe when he found that out because ever since he was a little kid he was taught to never lie.

2. Context:
What is happening in the story when it is being said?

- When this quote was said, Jonas had just gotten the the rules for his new job and the last rule allows him to lie and he doesn’t like to lie or be untruthful.

3. Significance:
What does the quote mean? What does it reveal about the characters/conflict/theme?

- This quote means that Jonas has the freedom to lie whenever he wants. This reveals about Jonas that he is the kind of person who never lies, which isn’t unusual in this book because everyone tells the truth always, and he doesn’t like to lie or ever have the urge to lie.

4. Connections: 
What does this quote mean to you? How do you see this idea in the world?

- This quote means to me that no one in that world is allowed to lie so they need to be told that they are allowed to lie. This idea in this world wouldn’t make our world that different because we lie all of the time even though it is frowned upon we still do it.

1. Agree although I also disagree with this statement. I don’t agree with it because it isn’t right to lie to anyone. Although I do agree with it because at some point in time your going to have to lie to someone to protect someone else.

2.I disagree with this statement because if you never have difficult experiences in life how are you going to get strong. Also how are you going to learn to get past it and move on to the better things.

3. I agree and disagree with this statement. I agree with it because it is nice to be part of a group of people that you work well with and respect. Although I disagree with it because some people but do better alone or like to work alone.

4. I disagree with this statement. I disagree with it because it you always had the right choices given to you and you never had the wrong ones, how are you suppose to learn from them. Also if you don’t get to make your own choices how are you going to find yourself as a person.

2.I disagree with this statement. Difficult challenges are a chance to learn from them. They also give you the chance to grow from them.

4I agree and disagree with this statement. It would be better to have more freedom but to also be told the right choices once and awhile.

1. No, I don’t think that it is ever ok to lie. I think this way because lying can cause you a lot of problems.

2. No,  I think that you need challenges. I think this way because this is how people learn and grow and a way to come together as a community.

3. I think it is better to be alone. I think this way because to many people make me overwhelmed.

4.I think it is better to make your own wrong choice. I think this way because people are not perfect and need to make mistakes sometimes.

1.I think that it is ok to lie sometimes if it is better for a person not to know the truth. If the lie could prevent something bad from happening then it would also be ok to lie.               

2. No, because difficult challenges make you better at a certain thing. They will help you learn from your mistakes and make you better at a certain thing or things.

3.Yes, because then you don't; have all of the burden on you to get the whole thing done. You have other people to help you get a certain task done.

4.I would always want to make my own choices .I would be able to change my mistakes and choose a different option next time. 
Emily Drummer
Emily Drummer
1. I believe that it is okay to lie because you're trying to protect a person that you love. I think that it is not okay when you lie not trying to protect anybody and you end up hurting them more than if you would’ve said the truth.

2. I think that it wouldn’t be better because most challenges are to test us on how smart we are/how easy it is for us to fail. I think that if there were no challenges the smallest things in life could just set us off like a bomb.

3. I think that it is better to be in a group because you have certain people to rely on that could end up being there for you for life. If you weren’t in a group you would be sad all the time and depressed.

4. I think that I would rather have somebody make choices for me because then life wouldn’t be as stressful. Where as today when you make your own choices people end up making wrong decisions imagine if that didn’t happen, it would be so easy.


John Lynch

1. I agree with this because you could be lying to be keeping them safe. If you are lying to them to keep them safe from something I feel like that is ok.

2. I disagree with this because you have to face challenges in life otherwise it would just be boring. The challenges in life and what shape you as a person.

3. I agree because being alone in life would be terrible no one to talk. If you were alone for your entire life there really no point to live you never get to interact with others.

4. I disagree because if someone is making all of your choices what's the point then. I feel as if you don't get to choose what you want to what's the point.
Jack Klinder
Jack Klinder
1.Yes, I think that it is alright to lie sometimes because it can be for a good reason. One reason could be to protect someone so they do not get hurt.
2.No, because sometimes i think that things like that can shape you as a person. I also think that it can help build character.
3.Yes, I think this is very trust because with a group of people you have a lot of people to talk to and to hangout with. You can also have a place to go and you have friends as well.
4.No, Because with freedom you can have that right to pink what you want to do. Another reason is that people learn from their mistakes therefore i say no.

1. In my opinion I think that it is okay to lie sometimes. I think that it is okay to lie sometimes because if a person is going through a hard time you sometimes have to lie instead of making them feel worse. 
2. In my opinion I think that it would not be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. I think this because if we were not given these difficult experiences we would never realize 
3. In my opinion I think that it is better to be a part of a group. I think this because without people you would always be lonely and not ever have anybody to talk to.  
4. In my opinion I would rather have the right choices made for me. I think this because if you make a wrong choice something bad could happen to you or you could get hurt. If the right choice is made for you then there would be less of a chance of something bad happening to you. 
Cody Phillips

1. I agree because than if you don't want to hurt someone's feeling or something like that than it is a good thing. But if you do it too much than it is a very bad thing
2. I disagree because than you can't really learn for yourself if you already know everything and there's not really any point of even having those challenges
3. Depending on the person that you are like if you are doing homework some people like to do it alone and some like the help of others
4. I disagree because then you don't really know what the right choices really are. if you make the wrong choices you will know what you did wrong for next time
Hannah Schommer
Hannah Schommer
1. Liying deceives the heart, and tricks the mind. Even when you do it to protect someone it can cause even more damage than what the original lie would have done. 
2. Challenges make us stronger physically and mentally. Without challenge we wouldn't learn anything know any thing or be anything but mindless shells living a senseless life. 
3. With others one is made stronger we sharpen each other lift each other up. When the storms come they are a rock to hold onto. When the wind rages and the thunder boomers they are hands to grip and never let go. 
4. With no choice comes no freedom no new experiences. With no choice we have no life. A dog on a leash is safer with a short leash than a long leash or no leash with no leash it could run into the road and with a long leash it could choke itself.

In my opinion i think that sometimes it is okay to lie. Because sometimes it's better to say a lie then tell the truth if i benefits for someone else's well being
2.In my opinion i think that it's better to have difficult challenges. Because it defines you as a person and what you're capable of and it shows you have hard life can be and that you don't get things handed to you, you need to work for them.
3.In my opinion it think it is better to be alone. Because i think it's better to be alone then to be with the wrong/ bad group.

1.I agree because maybe you are lying for a good reason. You could be lying so you don’t get in trouble but is better to tell the truth.
2.I disagree,because we need to have challenges otherwise we're just gonna get everything easy. We're not gonna understand if it’s always good in life.
3.It’s better to be in a group because it is healthier for you. It is sometimes better to be alone because if you are trying to do something then you don’t have to wait on your group or anything.
4.I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choice because if have the right choice then im not gonna be able to experience anything that is wrong.  
Amy Shaw
Amy Shaw

1. No, it’s okay to lie even when the truth will hurt. Even though the truth will hurt you shouldn’t lie to the person.
2. No, if we never had difficult challenges then how would we succeed in life. It’s better to have difficult times then to not have them.
3. Yes, even if you don’t like people it’s not fun to be alone. It’s so much better to be a group so you can get to know them.
4. No, I would rather chose my own choices. If I didn't chose my own choices life could be a bad.
Gabriela Otto
Gabriela Otto
1. Yes I do think it is okay to lie sometimes, because there are certain situations where you might need to lie to save/protect yourself. But it is not okay to lie when you know that it isn’t right.
2.  No It wouldn’t be better because going through difficult situations or challenges in life, can often help you in some way. After you overcome that challenge you can reflect on it, and see how it affected your way.
3.Yes it is better to be apart of the group because it can keep you safe. If somebody were to try  and hurt you while you’re by yourself then you can’t really do much, but if you have more than one person, then it gives you a better chance of protecting yourself. 
4.No I would rather make my own wrong choices, because if someone makes all of the decisions for you, then you can’t learn form those mistakes, but if you mess up or make the wrong decision, then you can learn from them and fix what you did wrong.

Devin Adms
Devin Adms
1. Yes, in my personal opinion it is okay to lie sometimes. Sometimes  lies protect people from the horrible truth that could destroy them forever.
2. No, I think you should experience difficult challenges in life. Difficult challenges can change people for the better and give them stories that they could tell there children or grandchildren.
3. Yes, I agree that it is better to be in a group than by yourself. A group can be people that you enjoy or people than shares the same views with you.
4.  Yes, I would rather have other people make my right choices. Those people could understand the situation more than me if I’m one sided.
Prajita Chauhan
Prajita Chauhan
1. I think sometimes it’s okay to lie because if the lie brings a smile to someone’s face and make he/she happy, that is a lie for a good purpose.

2.Well yes, life would be a lot easier if we never had to experience difficult challenges in life. But, in reality, life is full of challenges, and when we face these challenges actually it is a great-learning experience which helps to develop a skill to tackle other challenges in future and helps you gain self-confidence.

3.  Yes, it would be better to be a part of a group rather than to be alone, because if you are in a group than you collaborate with others and you share ideas between each other which helps you to know other’s perspectives in a same situation. This also develops our skill to work in groups.

4. In my opinion, I would rather have the right choice made for me because I don’t want to have the freedom to make my own decisions and regret for it later.. I would like to someone else make right choices in my life rather than ruining my life with the freedom of making my own wrong choices.

1.
No, it is not okay to lie in my opinion because it is usually not a good thing to do. I will admit though, I am guilty of doing it before.

2. 
Yes, because sometimes difficult challenges in life can really bring a person down. I think it would be great to not have difficult challenges in life, because people would probably be happier.

3.
I think it is better to be a part of a group. Being a part of a group makes me feel happier, than being alone.

4.
I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices in life. Without being able to choose from my choices in life, I would never learn from them.

1.If it is a life or death situation I think it is ok to lie.If it is not a life or death situation I think it is not ok to lie.
2.I think if you didn't have any difficult challenges in life we wouldn't learn anything.If we didn't learn anything the world would be dumb.
3.I think it is better to be a part of a group rather than work alone because when you're working in a group you have more than just one person with their ideas.When your working in a group you can talk to your friends too
4.I would rather make my own choices rather than have someone else make them for me.If someone made all the right choices for me I wouldn't learn anything.
Kaleb Sorenson
Kaleb Sorenson
1. I agree with this statement because if you lie for someone else's protection. I do not think you should lie all the time though or if you are lying for no reason. 
2.  I do not agree with this statement because if you do not have challenges in your life you will never develop problem solving skills. Also if you don't have any challenges you will never have the feeling of accomplishment.
3. I agree with this statement because if you are in a group they can help you accomplish your goals if they are too hard to accomplish on your own 
4. I do not agree with this statement because if you make the right choices you cant become smart enough to not do that again. And if you make wrong choices you can learn if you make the right choices you will never learn 
Annika Wick
Annika Wick 
1. 
I agree that it's alright to lie sometimes because if you don't lie then you could hurt someone's feelings. Even though lying is a terrible thing to do everybody does it. And in some situations you just have to lie. Also honesty is not the best policy.      
2.
I would have to disagree that it would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life because if you never have to deal with that then you will never learn from your mistakes. I also think experiencing difficult challenges makes you a stronger and better person. Also having difficulty challenges makes you a smarter and better person.
3.
I would have to agree that it is better to be a part of a group than to be alone because when I am with a group of people I seem to be more happier. Also being with a group makes things more fun and interesting. And doing stuff with a group is better than doing it alone such as going to the mall.  
4.
I would have to disagree that I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices because I like having the freedom to make my own wrong choices. And if I couldn't choose my life choices, I would never learn from them. Learning from mistakes helps me be a better and smarter  person. 
I would rather be able to
 I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices. So i can learn from them.
Brandon Miller

1. 
I think that it is ok  to lie if you are doing it for the good of another  person or someone else you know. It is also ok to lie if you are trying to help someone else or if it is a little white lie.
2. 
I think that it is important to experience difficult situations in order to improve your response to the situation. It also helps you to be more prepared and understand things better.
3. I think that it is better to be part of a group because you have someone to help you if you're confused. If you are alone you have no one to help you improve except for yourself.
4. I don't agree with the statement because making your own decisions is part of who you are as a person. When you don't have the right to make decision it takes part of your humanity away.
Isabel Street
Isabel Street
1. 
Yes, I have to agree, sometimes it is okay to tell little white lies. An example would be if you are telling a lie to keep someone safe, or telling a lie so nobody gets hurt.

2. 
I disagree, if you had no difficult challenges, then when could you learn. Learning anything new is always a challenge. Having to think about things a little harder isn’t always a bad thing. It can overall make you a better person.

3.
I agree and disagree with this one. Honestly it depends on what you’re doing. Some people like to work alone on things like projects while others like to work in groups.

4.
I have to disagree. I would rather make some wrong choices. What good does always doing the right thing do? Nobody would probably learn anything because you wouldn’t do anything wrong.

Joey Rule
Joey Rule
1. 
I think sometimes it is okay to lie as long as it is not a huge lie. For example if someone asked you when you are by yourself you would tell them no and say your parents will be right back.

2. Yes in some cases and no in some other cases. It all depends on what the challenges are and when they are and how they affect you

3. I think it is better to be part of a group. It good to be a part of a group because you will have friends to talk to.

4. 
I would rather have freedom and make wrong choices. There is a few reasons but one is that you are free and you can do anything but if you are not free you have every very strict. 
Savannah Flugum
Savannah Flugum
1. I believe that sometimes it is okay to lie. If you are planning a surprise for someone and they ask you about it you can’t exactly tell them the truth because then you will ruin the surprise. I think it’s okay to lie if the truth will come out later. 

2. I disagree. In life you need some challenges or it would get boring. Sometimes, difficult challenges can make you stronger and prepare you for other challenges that may be heading your way in the future. 

3. I would say that most of the time it is better to be part of a group. It is never fun to be all alone all of the time. It really depends on the person to decide whether they like to be in a group or not. 

4. I would not rather have the right choice made for me. Every person has the freedom to make their own choices and choose their own path in life. 
Riley Coult
Riley Coult
1. Yes it is because what if you are a grown up and have kids that ask you a lot of questions, you could lie depending on what the question was. If it's something personal you might not want to lie because if you do the person will find out sooner or later and they will probably get mad that you didn’t tell them. .(depending on what it was about)

2. I think It's better to experience difficult challenges in life because if you don’t then you won’t be prepared for you kids or  yourself in the future. 

3. I think It is better to be part of a group, because if you are alone you won’t have any friends and then you will be alone forever. It is possible to not want to be around people. 

4. I would want to have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices, because who knows what wrong decisions they could be.
Logan Kroeker
Logan Kroeker
1. 
I think that it is OK to lie sometimes but you should not get carried away and begin to lie all of the time. I think that it is OK to lie because sometime it is better for that person to not know the truth.
2. 
Not I think that the difficulties that a person faces defines the way that they are. I also think that if there were no difficulties then people would become dependent on those people to not have difficulties.
3. 
I think that it is better to be in a group more often than not because it is always to have other input and more brains working on something. But sometimes it is better to just work alone like the quote “if you want  something done right you have to do it yourself.
4. 
I disagree because what if the right choice is not the choice that you wanted to be made. Or who knows if by letting them make your own choices they may not stop there and maybe soon you have no control over any of your actions.
asa
asa
It depends of you're believes. If you believe it is okay to lie. Or not to lie
No, it would not be better difficult choices is what defines us. It also tells us what to do.
It is better to be alone. Cause then you're less likely to be made fun of
I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices. So i can learn from them.

1. 
I do not think that it is okay to lie sometimes. I do not think that it is okay to lie sometimes because even if you are lieing to help someone they will most likely always figure out the truth
2. 
I do not think that it would be better if there were no difficult life challenges because then people would not get better at anything and we usually learn from challenging life experiences so if there no difficult challenges then we would not learn anything.
3. 
I think that it is much better to be in a group than being alone because if you are alone you cannot learn from other people and people need to socialize to be better people. I also think that it is better to be a part of a group than alone because being alone is just really boring.
4. 
I would rather make my own choices and have them be wrong than someone else make my choices and have them be right because the choices you make show what kind of person you are.
Chloe Terhark
Chloe Terhark
1. 
In my opinion I think that it’s not okay to lie.  I would rather want to know a hurtful truth than a comforting lie. sometimes it is okay to lie if it is protecting someone.
2. In my opinion I think that it would be better to face difficult challenges in life.  facing challenges is what makes you the person you are by going through difficult obstacles and how you overcome them. 
3.
I don’t agree with this statement but I also don’t disagree with this statement because it’s good to be in a group because then other people have your back and are there for you. Sometimes it’s also better to be alone.
4.
I disagree with this statement because in my opinion I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.  I would want to learn from my mistakes and become a better person because of it. 
 
Sadie Moosey
Sadie Moosey
1. Yes, I agree because if you are in a bad situation like when it’s a matter of life and death and you have to lie to protect someone else's life. Otherwise, I don't think it's okay to lie because then people won't trust you and lying often hurts people more than the truth does.
2. I don’t agree because  we couldn’t get stronger and learn from our mistakes. 
3. I agree because when you are in a group you can have more fun. And I also think that you tend to be more happy.
4. No, I don’t agree because we can’t learn because we wouldn’t make any mistakes. I like to have freedom because you feel more alive when you have the freedom to choose what you want to do.
Cassandra Bade
Cassandra Bade
1.
Yes, I think it is ok to lie something not all the time though.  If you lie all the time you could get into a lot of trouble if you lie to much.
2. 
I think everyone should experience difficult challenges in life.  People need challenges life just can’t be easy for everyone.
3.
It is better to be a part of a group than being alone by yourself.  If you're by yourself you're not really connecting with other people you're just connecting to yourself.  Also being in a group you can talk about what’s going on in the world and not just talk or think by yourself.
4.
Yes, I would rather have the right choices made for me.  Then I will not get in trouble and I will follow my rights
Gavin Weinandt
Gavin Weinandt

Yes, A little white lie almost never hurt anyone. If we stopped lying we might hurt more people 

It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. 
No because we would not have that sense of fulfillment from accomplishing something. We would all be bored out of our minds.

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. 
I feel like better to be alone. When working in a group almost all my experiences lead to me doing it all.

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.

I’d rather have my freedom. Unless it's in a way where i’m unaware I don’t have freedom

Allie Carlson
Allie Carlson
1. I disagree with that. I disagree because if you lie you might get yourself in more trouble than if you just tell the truth. 
2. I disagree with that. I disagree because If you don’t experience difficult challenges you may not know how to handle tough situations when they come your way. So I would rather experience them now so that way I know how to handle them. 
3. I agree with that. I would rather be with a group. That way you have someone to talk to and if a scary situations pops up, you have someone else to face it with you. 
4. I disagree with that. I disagree because I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices. Even if they were the wrong choices, I would still learn from my mistakes. 
cale anderson
cale anderson
1. Yes because if it is for the better it should be allowed.
2.No because society wouldn't be able to grow without issues. We need to have issues to continue in our species.

3.Sometimes yes, but if it is something like a test, no never.

4.No because not all right choices are what you want. It would take the fun out of life.
Grace Eischens
Grace Eischens
1. I think it is ok to lie sometimes. To me, it is ok to lie to help somebody feel better.
2. I think that it wouldn’t be better to have no difficult challenges in life. The things that you fail at are what make you who you are.
3. It is better to be a part of a group because no one works better alone in my opinion. I couldn’t imagine being without a friend or a group.
4. I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices then to have someone else make them for me. What if I don’t agree with that person’s choice, then I wouldn't be happy and the point of a utopia, is everyone is happy.
Brooke Sonnek
Brooke Sonnek
1. I agree that  sometimes, it’s okay to lie, because sometimes you need to lie to not hurt someone’s feelings or to protect their reputation. Most of the time lying is bad, but it is easier to lie, than to hurt someone’s feelings.

2. I do not agree, because experiencing difficult challenges in life are what make up your moral character and who you are.  If you didn’t go through tough challenges, I don’t think you would even be a person anymore.

3. I agree at is is better to be apart of a group. Being apart of a group is what makes your “people skills” develop, especially if you have a large role in it. Being alone sometimes is good, but if you’re alone all the time you won’t know how to talk and interact with people.

4. I believe that I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choice, because wrong choices can lead to good things. As they say, sometimes a door to an opportunity has to close, for an even better one to open
Makena Dammer
Makena Dammer
1. It is okay to sometimes tell a little lie. Like if you were throwing a surprise party you have to lie to the person being surprised. But sometimes you just have to lie because it might be the right thing to do.

2. I think it would not be better to not experience any difficult challenges in life because the difficult challenges is how we learn. If we don't experience the difficult times we will never learn and we will not know how to have fun.

3. It is better to be apart of a group but it is also good to be alone sometimes. It depends on your mood and how you are feeling that day. But you should definitely have a group of friends to talk to and have fun with.

4. I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices because then again we can learn from our mistakes. If we don't learn we will never know and sometimes when you do the wrong thing you have learned something very important.
Sarah Terry
Sarah Terry
1. It agree with this statement because it is okay to lie if it is for something good. If you are protecting someone or something, or helping someone out, it is okay to lie. 

2. I disagree with this statement because difficult things in life make you stronger. You could appreciate things more if difficult challenges stood in your way that made you work for it. 

3. I agree with this statement because people need companionship. You need friends and people you can count on when you have trouble. 

4. I disagree with this statement because you need to learn from your mistakes. People need to know how to make the right choice, not have someone make it for them. 

Leah Quiram
Leah Quiram
1.I disagree with this statement because personally I think that even though every single person does lie and sometimes we don’t even realize that we are telling little white lies, I still don’t think it’s okay. Lying may seem like a solution in some situations and it's easy to do but  lying never actually benefits you in the long haul. 
2.I disagree with this statement because I believe that experiencing difficult challenges shapes us into better people and teaches us so much. Going through a difficult situation can really make you into a stronger and better person and you learn so many important things from experiencing it. 
3.I agree with this statement .When you’re apart of a group you have people who will be there to support you and help you through many situations and sometimes you can’t just do everything on your own and you need help from  someone.
4.I disagree with this statement because personally I like being able to make my own choices even if they are wrong. I don’t like the idea of all my choices being made by someone else even if they are the right choices because I want to have the choice and not be controlled by someone else.
Arianna Armendariz
Arianna Armendariz
1.
It only depends on the lie itself, if it were to protect someone until further notice then I feel like it would be okay to lie. If it were to be because of protecting yourself, then I don’t think that it is okay to lie.
2.
If we never did, then we I don’t think that we would learn from our own selves. Everyone should experience something difficult so we can all adapt to different changes.
3.
In some situations, it is better, but if it is personal, then I don’t feel like you should be in a group unless it also involves them personally. It would make sense to have some friends to help guide you along.
4.
I don’t think that making choices for yourself should be dependant on other people but yourself. If everything was made for us, then we would never know right from  wrong, it wouldn’t really be fair to the people themselves.

Mykayla Rasmussen
Mykayla Rasmussen
1. I would agree with this statement. Lying can be harmful but in some circumstances lying is essential to keep people from harm or pain. Just imagine if we didn’t lie, surprise parties would be pointless.
2. I would disagree with this statement. Although difficult challenges can cause us pain, its what we learn from it that makes us stronger. Without these challenges we would be weak and more vulnerable to the smallest of challenges instead of taking them head on. 
3. I would agree with this statement. Being alone, well, is lonely. Having people around you encouraging you and pushing you to be best self. It also helps to have someone to talk to, to get different points of views. 
4. I would disagree with this statement. I believe I would like to the freedom to make my own decisions even if it’s the wrong one. Making those decisions help he learn and grow as a person. 
Mason Dammer
Mason Dammer
1.I agree that it is ok to lie. If someone is at the door asking if your parents are home saying they are in the shower maybe true or you are lying because you don't know who they are. If you lie to much it can turn on you like the boy that cried wolf.

2.I disagree with that. If you never had to experience bad times then you would never have good times. You would never learn from your mistakes

3.I agree that it is better to be apart of a group. If you are alone then you would not know how to talk to people. It would help you in the long run when you have to work with other people.

4.I disagree with that. If you were never wrong then how would you know what is right. You would also never learn from what you do wrong if you do it right all of the time
Hailey Frank
Hailey Frank
1.  Yes, sometimes it is okay to lie. If it's for someone's protection, or their own well being. Sometimes you just have to lie or bend the truth to protect someone. Or maybe it's just for a surprise party, you can lie for that too. 

2.  Well, you kinda need to have difficult challenges in your life. They make you smarter and a better problems solver. sure, it would]]></description>

1) Sometimes, it’s okay to lie...Yes, because if you always told the truth you would hurt people's feelings and get yourself in trouble. I don’t think people should lie all the time but sometimes it’s good to lie. 

2) It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life... No, because you wouldn’t learn things well. If you had no difficult challenges nobody would be motivated to do anything.

3) It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone... Sometimes, I personally don’t mind being alone but I also like to hang out with friends when I can. I like working on projects and such alone because I work better by myself

4) I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices... No, because I wouldn’t get to experience a lot of things. In the past I have made wrong choices but that doesn’t mean I didn’t get a fun experience.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I disagree to this statement and here is why. if you lie to someone about something and then they tell someone else you forget about what you're lie was and they ask you and you make up different story and then they said the story they heard from a friend. And you say they made it up. That can tear up a friendly relationship with you're frend

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I think yes it is ok to lie if it keeps the other person happy. Because if its ruining someone's reputation it could ruin their life  

It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
No because you would have nothing to live for. And you wouldn't have to work for things 

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
Yes you will be happier about things and not be alone. And working together could be the best thing a person could ever have 

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
False i would want to make my own choices. Because it will lead me to have more fun in life 

Dillon

Sometimes its good to lie like if your with someone you think is lying to you can lie to get the truth out of them. But i dont suggest lying because if you are in trouble with a cop and you lie they can easily catch you lying and then you will be in more trouble
I agree cause if you are a mean person and you bully people and all of a sudden they commit suicide they probably did it because of you. So expeirenceing challenges could change you from a mean person to a really nice person.
Sometimes because if your with a group of freinds and they all do something bad then you will get in trouble but if then again you are going to need a group of friends to help with things but being alone it can be harder to do bad things if your smart about it
I dis agree because if you always make the right choices you will never learn. But if you make those wrong choices you can learn from them

HaileyAnn Dingman
HaileyAnn Dingman
Yes,under certain circumstanes. If the lie will damage or hurt someones reputation then it is not okay. But if the lie is something like a good superise therefor i say it is okay.

I think having difficult challenges in life is  a good thing because you do learn from them. Also you could stop someone or guide someone so they dont go through the situation.


Sometimes yes and sometimes no, because sometimes you need to focus and not have all distractions. And then yes so you are not sad and lonely
I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices. Because I would want to learn from them..

I would not have the righ
 I would not have the right choice made for me instead of me being able to make the wrong choices. I say this because everyone needs to be wrong once in a while.

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
I disagree to this statement and here is why. I think it's false because you learn from you're mistakes by making the wrong choice and if you never decide the right choice it's not what you want. What you choose build your personality and lets other people see what you would do and how you would do. Which helps them see who you are. If you had someone always choose the right answer it's not showing people who you really are



Kayla Jordan
Kayla Jordan
1.Yes, it depends on the situation. Lying can make things a lot worse in the long run. If your lying to protect someone's feelings it would be different. 
2.No, because the problems that you go through make you who you are. If nothing bad ever happened then we would never know when to stop. 
3.Yes, you can get into some trouble if your in a group. If your by yourself the decisions you make is your fault. 
4.I would rather have the choice to make my own decisions. lt´s my life and when I make a mistake I want to be able to suffer the consequences.

Kolton Kunz

1. 
I think it is because if something bad could happen if you didn't lie, but also if you do lie then there can be some consequences if it's something serious you lied about
2. 
I disagree because if you never have challenges then you won't learn on how to understand what other people are going through or you will never get better at something
3. 
Sometimes you will need to learn how to do stuff on your own
4. 
I disagree because you live and learn from your mistakes, and if you just had every choice made for you then you wont really have any relationships with anyone
Maggie Schommer 1.No, because if you tell this one little lie. That one tiny little lie can follow you everywhere and sooner or later the truth will come out.
        Maggie Schommer                                     1.No, because if you tell this one little lie. That one tiny little lie can follow you everywhere and sooner or later the truth will come out.
2. no , if you never have to experience challenges. then what is life, life is full of them and that's what keeps you going 

3.Yes it is better to be apart of a group, you can ask for help when you need it and it gives you people to confide in and to your feelings to. 
4. 
I would like to have the freedom to make my own choice because if someone else makes it for me i may have the experience to make my own choices ever. and if it comes down to one or the other like family of friend there is no right choice.

Courtney Loeffler  
1.)
yes, sometimes you do need to tell a lie in order to help somebody or protect someone. It can help in some situations      
 2.)
 think it would be worse for you in the long run, because then you never learn and grow from those difficult times. So when something difficult does happen you won’t know how to deal with it. 
3.) I think it is better to be in a group because than you have a support system and you can take care of each other and help one another. 
4.)
I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices, because then I learn something from them.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
No, because if you lie you won’t stop. The lie will get bigger and bigger until the true comes out.
It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
No, because difficult challenges grow people in to the person they will become. No difficult challenges no truly good people in the world who will give back because they know how it feels. 
It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
Sometimes because you feels better when you can talk to people. Sometimes you need to be by yourself.   
I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.

I would rather have the freedom to have the wrong choices, because I will learn for my wrongs choices. In the future I will make the right choices well it matters.

1: Although it is bad, you can still lie. You can still lie if its to keep people safe or to help others
2: I don’t think it would be better to not experience any difficulties in life. In life, in order to grow up and mature you need to have some type of difficulties that hinder you.
3: It is sometimes better to be part of a group than to be alone. I say this because some days people just need to be alone more than in a group, but other days it is better to be in a group because that group can help with many things.
4: I would not have the right choice made for me instead of me being able to make the wrong choices. I say this because everyone needs to be wrong once in a while.

No it would not be better to not to have to experience difficult changes in life. Because if we never had to experience difficult things then we would be very weak and more than likely not be able to defend ourselves.

3.

Sometimes it is better to be part of a group, but sometimes it is not. Because you could make enemies while in a group and sometimes you could make friends.
4.

I disagree. I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices because it can be a big learning experience so that I won’t do it the next time.

1. Yes it depends on how far the lie can go. But sometimes people can’t handle the truth and it isn’t terrible to lie. 

2. No. We need to experience the worst in life to understand when it gets good. Life isn't perfect and we as humans need build a immunity like disease

3. Depends on what th group is about  if the group is doing something wrong or making you do something wrong. then yes it is better to be alone and proud that you still have your dignity and move on.

1.Agree, i think its okay to lie sometimes because you could be protecting one another from something in a situation. It depends on the situation.
2.
Disagree i think challenges shape you into the person you are, it helps you learn from them and try to do better next time. Some people might think it would be better to have no challenges because it would make life easier but then you wouldn't learn.
3. 
Agree, but it would depend on the situation. because being part of a group means that you have people there with you along the way. They are there to back you up in a way possible. They help you grow and learn.
4. 
Agree but disagree at the same time. Agree because at points it would be easier for the right choice to be made for me because it would help me but then im not learning from anything so it wont better me. Disagree also because soemtimes you need to be on your own and think for yourself.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. I think it’s ok to lie sometimes, It can be useful for some situations.

 It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. I think it would be worse. Because if you didn’t then if they did happen you wouldn’t have any experience with them. 

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. I think it would be better. When your alone you have no one to talk to about what your feeling and there’s no one to distract you from who you really are. 

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
I would not like to have my choices made for me. It would be dumb because I could get stuck doing something I don’t like.

1. Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is very wrong to lie. Why, because when you tell a lie it is hard to not tell another one and another one, then you will be in a big mess that you will have no idea how to clean up, and also if you just tell the truth in the first place then it will be a lot easier to ask for forgiveness. 
2. It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is good to experience difficult challenges in life. Why, because if you didn’t then you wouldn’t know what to do if something bad were to happen that has never happened before. You also might become a fake kind of person. 
3. It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is better to be a part of a group. Why, because if you are in trouble your group can help you, they will be there when you need them and you are there for them. If you were alone then it might be hard for you to defend yourself, at the least two is better than one.  
4. I  would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
I don’t know what is better. Why, because making the wrong choice can be what you need to make the right choice, and sometimes the “right” choice might not be the best way to figure things out. Also if you are given the freedom to choose you might make the right decision anyway.

yes , sometimes you might need to to protect someone. it can help you in some situations 
No, change is good. you need to experience new things 
Yes,  it is important to be a group. also is important to be alone
No, you should make your own choices. to know whats right and wrong

t would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life.
I do not think this is true because without these difficult times your personality would be bland and distasteful. But when you do endure these hard times you build character and become relatable.

1. Sometimes it is okay to lie. I think it is okay to lie because it can keep a person very calm during a stressful situation. 

2. No it would not be better to never experience difficult challenges in life. If you never face hard time you will not be built up for the time that get really hard

3. It all depends on the person, what there doing and what is going on. I say that because sometimes people work better by themselves then with a group and other times people need that help from other people 

4. I would rather have the choice to make my own choices. We grow from our past and our experiences in  life, and if we do not have that then we will not grow to be better people.
Carter

Sometimes its OK if its for the better. If it’s a white lie, and saves someone from getting their feelings hurt of whatever, it’s fine most of the time.
No, since challenges make you stronger. Think about it, they don’t want antibiotics in meat anymore because it weakens our immune system, it’s the same type of things with challenges to our life.
No, not always. That “group” could be the mafia or something and that’s for sure not good. However, there’s good groups such as boy scouts and such.
I’d rather make my own choices, wrong or not. It strengthens you for other problems, such as having challenges in life. Choices form a better person (usually) in the end because you learn from them.

1. I think that lying is bad but sometimes it is okay. If it depends on someone's life then it is okay to lie but if it is for something that will save someone's reputation or prevent them from not getting hurt then it is okay.
2. I think that it is better to experience difficult things in life because it makes us tougher. People need to go through bad stuff to realize when the good stuff is happening.
3. I think that teamwork makes everything go faster and easy but sometimes you have to do stuff alone. Some stuff you can’t do with a group because you are the only one who can figure it out.
4. I would rather have freedom to make my own choices. Even if what I choose is wrong, I can still learn from my mistakes instead of having it done for me.

I agree, because sometimes it is to protect yourself. You on the other hand won't always be helping yourself out because your parents may already know the answer and then you go out lying to them about what you did/said etc. At this moment you are really screwed. 
I disagree with this due to the fact that in life you will always have hard or difficult things come up in your lifetime and you will need to know how to deal with them. Or you may not be exposed to the real world before you head off to college or anything really. 
I agree with this, because you will get the feel of talking with other people around your general age group. YOu will also get exposed to talking about real life situations. 
I disagree with this, because when my mom makes my choices she will always make me do my sisters chores and when i get to make my own choices i don't do them and ask my dad if he can take me shopping then i use the lying part and say mom said i didn't have to do my chores and that i can go to the mall even tho she told me to do my chores.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I think that sometimes it is ok if it protects someone or helps out. If the lie benefits people instead of harming people than it is ok.
would it be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
I think that you should have to experience difficult things in life because you can learn from those experiences. You can benefit greatly by challenges in your life that you overcome.
It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
I think that sometimes it is better to be in a group and sometimes it is better to be alone. With a group you guys might not communicate well or be slowed down, and alone you won't have the assistance and company of others.
I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
I would rather make my own choices because I trust myself more than anyone else. I wouldn’t like to have my choices made for me, I would like to make my own and be my own peraon.

Yes, I do agree with this statement. If it is a lie that will keep someone safe or is for the benefit of someone it can be okay to lie.
I strongly disagree with this statement. If you never experience difficult challenges than you don’t grow as much as a person or learn some valuable life lessons. 
I  both agree and disagree with this statement.  I feel like there are certain situations where being alone can benefit you, and certain ones where being part of a group or team can also benefit you.

Yes, sometimes the truth hurts too much. It can be more beneficial to keep something secret.
No, you need to go through some real challenges  in order to learn about yourself. Hardships in life can make you a better person, have more empathy for other people, and be more humble.
It depends on the situation. I think it’s good to be apart of a teams sometimes, that’s why a lot of people including myself love sports.  You also need time alone to relax and learn about other things you enjoy doing, which is why it's good to spend time alone.
No, how can you expect to learn anything doing this. Sometimes the wrong choice is even more worth it in the long run and chances are you won’t look back and regret it.

Conner Andree

Yes when you did something that hurt someone or something happened in the someones life. No because you should only speak the truth.

No because it shapes who you are as a person. It also is the rough spots in life you have to get past

Yes because they help guide you through life. It also helps when you have a job and work with someone.

Yes because then you have a easy path through life. Then you will never get in trouble , and you'll never cause harm to anyone.
Tom Loeffler
Tom Loeffler
Yes,because it can protect peoples feelings
Also can get you out of a sticky situation


No,because you learn from them
They make people tougher

You just need balance


Both,i would like another person's input
I probably wouldn’t like it,but it would be better for me

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. - 
I agree with this statement because sometimes it is okay to lie. I believe this because sometimes lying to someone is the best way to keep them from getting hurt. You can lie to keep people out of harm’s way.
It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. - 
I think that having bad experiences in life can help you, but it can also harm you. It can help you because having to go through something bad can make you stronger and smarter from that experience. However, some experiences in life can impact you so bad that you cannot recover from them. 
It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone.  - 
I agree with this statement because I think that you should never be alone. Sometimes, you might want to be alone, and I think that it is good to be by yourself for a little bit of time each day. However, you should have people around you that are your friends so that you have someone to talk to.
I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices. - 
I disagree with this because you should be able to make your own choices. Even if you end up making the wrong choice, you will learn more from that then always having the right choice decided for you.


Colby Amundson
Colby Amundson
1. I agree because you sometimes have to stretch the truth so the person's feelings doesn't get hurt. You also have to lie sometimes about your age to get a video game.

2. False because the more difficult the challenge the more experience you have in life. I say this because you can learn many life lessons on your journey.

3. I agree because two is greater than one and three is greater than two. Like they say in the movies teamwork makes the dreamwork.

4. I disagree because the best part of life is making your own decisions. I mean what's the point of living if you can't make your own choices.
Carsten Schult
Carsten Schult
1.If in the grand scheme of things it will benefit you or the other person. Only in some circumstances.
2.No, because it’s the difficult challenges that will shape who you are as a person. It will show who you are also
3. Sometimes, of the group is going to slow you down then you would rather be alone. if the group with speed you up then the group is very useful
4. No, of you can’t make the wrong choice and never become wiser then you will always lean on someone else and not be able to do anything yourself. You have to be able to tell right and wrong and making wrong decisions is part of that
Madison Daly
Madison Daly
 Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences) 
- I agree and disagree with this because though you should never lie sometimes it is almost necessary. For instance let’s say that you are throwing your best friend a  surprise party. If you want it to be a surprise you must tell you friend a little lie. 

It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
- I disagree because I feel like difficult challenges are thing that make us stronger and prepare us for the next time something bad come about. Hard times teach us the things we have done wrong and help us to achieve better later on.

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
- I agree and disagree because it honestly depends on the situation. Somethings you have to have someone who you work well with to help you and other times it is better if you just do something by yourself. In a group you can here what others have to say and their opinions on something where as being alone helps you so you don't rely on someone to do the work for you.

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
- I disagree because  If you have someone making the choices for you then you will never have the chance to make the wrong ones and learn from them. I would much rather have the freedom to make my own choices even if I make the wrong choice. I feel like if I let someone else choose for me it would be like they were controlling me.

1:I agree with this, but only when your in immediate danger or you absolutely need too. I don't think it's ok to lie to your parents because it could get you in trouble or it could possibly keep you out of danger.

2:No, if you never experience them then when they happen then you won’t  know how to react.But if you don't and you will never have to then i guess you're just a luck person 

3:Not always because sometimes you just need to be alone.But when you need to it's always nice to have someone to talk to about all your problems.

4:No, everyone should be able to make their own choices even if they are wrong.What will you learn if someone always makes the right choice but then you are given the chance to make your own and it's wrong, you won’t ever learn.

The Giver Quote Analysis - Chs 6-11


Speaker and Audience:Who said this? Who is it said to and what is the purpose?


 | The rules for Jonas’ assignment. If someone askes what he knows
Context:What is happening in the story when it is being said?


 | If Jonas can, then who else can?
Significance:What does the quote mean? What does it reveal about the characters/conflict/theme?


 | To take everything being said with a dumptruck of salt 
Connections: What does this quote mean to you? How do you see this idea in the world?




 | You can’t be sure of everything said 


Putting it all together:
Introduce the quote:When (event from the book-context) happened, (character’s name-speaker) says… | 
Jonas wanted to know if his family unit was liers 
Paraphase:“In other words…” | You don't have to tell what you know 
Analyze:Explain significance, tone/mood, literary device:“The author is trying to make us see that…” | Sceptical 
Evaluate:Why is this quote important? What real world applications and connections can be drawn from the meaning of the quote?“This story/passage had a significant impact on my thinking about…” | 
It is important because now we know that the citizens can’t have these memories.

1. Speaker and Audience:
Who said this? Who is it said to and what is the purpose?

- Jonas said this and his rules for his job said it. It’s purpose was to tell Jonas that he is allowed to lie with his new job and he was in awe when he found that out because ever since he was a little kid he was taught to never lie.

2. Context:
What is happening in the story when it is being said?

- When this quote was said, Jonas had just gotten the the rules for his new job and the last rule allows him to lie and he doesn’t like to lie or be untruthful.

3. Significance:
What does the quote mean? What does it reveal about the characters/conflict/theme?

- This quote means that Jonas has the freedom to lie whenever he wants. This reveals about Jonas that he is the kind of person who never lies, which isn’t unusual in this book because everyone tells the truth always, and he doesn’t like to lie or ever have the urge to lie.

4. Connections: 
What does this quote mean to you? How do you see this idea in the world?

- This quote means to me that no one in that world is allowed to lie so they need to be told that they are allowed to lie. This idea in this world wouldn’t make our world that different because we lie all of the time even though it is frowned upon we still do it.

1. Agree although I also disagree with this statement. I don’t agree with it because it isn’t right to lie to anyone. Although I do agree with it because at some point in time your going to have to lie to someone to protect someone else.

2.I disagree with this statement because if you never have difficult experiences in life how are you going to get strong. Also how are you going to learn to get past it and move on to the better things.

3. I agree and disagree with this statement. I agree with it because it is nice to be part of a group of people that you work well with and respect. Although I disagree with it because some people but do better alone or like to work alone.

4. I disagree with this statement. I disagree with it because it you always had the right choices given to you and you never had the wrong ones, how are you suppose to learn from them. Also if you don’t get to make your own choices how are you going to find yourself as a person.

1. I agree and Disagree with this statement. The truth hurts but sometimes it does need to be told.
2.I disagree with this statement. Difficult challenges are a chance to learn from them. They also give you the chance to grow from them.
3.It would depend on the situation. It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone if the situation absolutely needs a group to be done.
4I agree and disagree with this statement. It would be better to have more freedom but to also be told the right choices once and awhile.

1. No, I don’t think that it is ever ok to lie. I think this way because lying can cause you a lot of problems.

2. No,  I think that you need challenges. I think this way because this is how people learn and grow and a way to come together as a community.

3. I think it is better to be alone. I think this way because to many people make me overwhelmed.

4.I think it is better to make your own wrong choice. I think this way because people are not perfect and need to make mistakes sometimes.
Dylan Thompson
Dylan Thompson
1.I think that it is ok to lie sometimes if it is better for a person not to know the truth. If the lie could prevent something bad from happening then it would also be ok to lie.               

2. No, because difficult challenges make you better at a certain thing. They will help you learn from your mistakes and make you better at a certain thing or things.

3.Yes, because then you don't; have all of the burden on you to get the whole thing done. You have other people to help you get a certain task done.

4.I would always want to make my own choices .I would be able to change my mistakes and choose a different option next time. 
Emily Drummer
Emily Drummer
1. I believe that it is okay to lie because you're trying to protect a person that you love. I think that it is not okay when you lie not trying to protect anybody and you end up hurting them more than if you would’ve said the truth.

2. I think that it wouldn’t be better because most challenges are to test us on how smart we are/how easy it is for us to fail. I think that if there were no challenges the smallest things in life could just set us off like a bomb.

3. I think that it is better to be in a group because you have certain people to rely on that could end up being there for you for life. If you weren’t in a group you would be sad all the time and depressed.

4. I think that I would rather have somebody make choices for me because then life wouldn’t be as stressful. Where as today when you make your own choices people end up making wrong decisions imagine if that didn’t happen, it would be so easy.


John Lynch

1. I agree with this because you could be lying to be keeping them safe. If you are lying to them to keep them safe from something I feel like that is ok.

2. I disagree with this because you have to face challenges in life otherwise it would just be boring. The challenges in life and what shape you as a person.

3. I agree because being alone in life would be terrible no one to talk. If you were alone for your entire life there really no point to live you never get to interact with others.

4. I disagree because if someone is making all of your choices what's the point then. I feel as if you don't get to choose what you want to what's the point.
Jack Klinder
Jack Klinder
1.Yes, I think that it is alright to lie sometimes because it can be for a good reason. One reason could be to protect someone so they do not get hurt.
2.No, because sometimes i think that things like that can shape you as a person. I also think that it can help build character.
3.Yes, I think this is very trust because with a group of people you have a lot of people to talk to and to hangout with. You can also have a place to go and you have friends as well.
4.No, Because with freedom you can have that right to pink what you want to do. Another reason is that people learn from their mistakes therefore i say no.

1. In my opinion I think that it is okay to lie sometimes. I think that it is okay to lie sometimes because if a person is going through a hard time you sometimes have to lie instead of making them feel worse. 
2. In my opinion I think that it would not be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. I think this because if we were not given these difficult experiences we would never realize 
3. In my opinion I think that it is better to be a part of a group. I think this because without people you would always be lonely and not ever have anybody to talk to.  
4. In my opinion I would rather have the right choices made for me. I think this because if you make a wrong choice something bad could happen to you or you could get hurt. If the right choice is made for you then there would be less of a chance of something bad happening to you. 
Cody Phillips

1. I agree because than if you don't want to hurt someone's feeling or something like that than it is a good thing. But if you do it too much than it is a very bad thing
2. I disagree because than you can't really learn for yourself if you already know everything and there's not really any point of even having those challenges
3. Depending on the person that you are like if you are doing homework some people like to do it alone and some like the help of others
4. I disagree because then you don't really know what the right choices really are. if you make the wrong choices you will know what you did wrong for next time
Hannah Schommer
Hannah Schommer
1. Liying deceives the heart, and tricks the mind. Even when you do it to protect someone it can cause even more damage than what the original lie would have done. 
2. Challenges make us stronger physically and mentally. Without challenge we wouldn't learn anything know any thing or be anything but mindless shells living a senseless life. 
3. With others one is made stronger we sharpen each other lift each other up. When the storms come they are a rock to hold onto. When the wind rages and the thunder boomers they are hands to grip and never let go. 
4. With no choice comes no freedom no new experiences. With no choice we have no life. A dog on a leash is safer with a short leash than a long leash or no leash with no leash it could run into the road and with a long leash it could choke itself.

In my opinion i think that sometimes it is okay to lie. Because sometimes it's better to say a lie then tell the truth if i benefits for someone else's well being
2.In my opinion i think that it's better to have difficult challenges. Because it defines you as a person and what you're capable of and it shows you have hard life can be and that you don't get things handed to you, you need to work for them.
3.In my opinion it think it is better to be alone. Because i think it's better to be alone then to be with the wrong/ bad group.

1.I agree because maybe you are lying for a good reason. You could be lying so you don’t get in trouble but is better to tell the truth.
2.I disagree,because we need to have challenges otherwise we're just gonna get everything easy. We're not gonna understand if it’s always good in life.
3.It’s better to be in a group because it is healthier for you. It is sometimes better to be alone because if you are trying to do something then you don’t have to wait on your group or anything.

Amy Shaw
Amy Shaw

1. No, it’s okay to lie even when the truth will hurt. Even though the truth will hurt you shouldn’t lie to the person.
2. No, if we never had difficult challenges then how would we succeed in life. It’s better to have difficult times then to not have them.
3. Yes, even if you don’t like people it’s not fun to be alone. It’s so much better to be a group so you can get to know them.
4. No, I would rather chose my own choices. If I didn't chose my own choices life could be a bad.
Gabriela Otto
Gabriela Otto
1. Yes I do think it is okay to lie sometimes, because there are certain situations where you might need to lie to save/protect yourself. But it is not okay to lie when you know that it isn’t right.
2.  No It wouldn’t be better because going through difficult situations or challenges in life, can often help you in some way. After you overcome that challenge you can reflect on it, and see how it affected your way.
3.Yes it is better to be apart of the group because it can keep you safe. If somebody were to try  and hurt you while you’re by yourself then you can’t really do much, but if you have more than one person, then it gives you a better chance of protecting yourself. 
4.No I would rather make my own wrong choices, because if someone makes all of the decisions for you, then you can’t learn form those mistakes, but if you mess up or make the wrong decision, then you can learn from them and fix what you did wrong.

Devin Adms
Devin Adms
1. Yes, in my personal opinion it is okay to lie sometimes. Sometimes  lies protect people from the horrible truth that could destroy them forever.
2. No, I think you should experience difficult challenges in life. Difficult challenges can change people for the better and give them stories that they could tell there children or grandchildren.
3. Yes, I agree that it is better to be in a group than by yourself. A group can be people that you enjoy or people than shares the same views with you.
4.  Yes, I would rather have other people make my right choices. Those people could understand the situation more than me if I’m one sided.
Prajita Chauhan
Prajita Chauhan
1. I think sometimes it’s okay to lie because if the lie brings a smile to someone’s face and make he/she happy, that is a lie for a good purpose.

2.Well yes, life would be a lot easier if we never had to experience difficult challenges in life. But, in reality, life is full of challenges, and when we face these challenges actually it is a great-learning experience which helps to develop a skill to tackle other challenges in future and helps you gain self-confidence.

3.  Yes, it would be better to be a part of a group rather than to be alone, because if you are in a group than you collaborate with others and you share ideas between each other which helps you to know other’s perspectives in a same situation. This also develops our skill to work in groups.

4. In my opinion, I would rather have the right choice made for me because I don’t want to have the freedom to make my own decisions and regret for it later.. I would like to someone else make right choices in my life rather than ruining my life with the freedom of making my own wrong choices. 
Kiersten Pietsch

No, it is not okay to lie in my opinion because it is usually not a good thing to do. I will admit though, I am guilty of doing it before.

2. 
Yes, because sometimes difficult challenges in life can really bring a person down. I think it would be great to not have difficult challenges in life, because people would probably be happier.

3.
I think it is better to be a part of a group. Being a part of a group makes me feel happier, than being alone.

4.

3.I think it is better to be a part of a group rather than work alone because when you're working in a group you have more than just one person with their ideas.When your working in a group you can talk to your friends too
4.I would rather make my own choices rather than have someone else make them for me.If someone made all the right choices for me I wouldn't learn anything.

1. I agree with this statement because if you lie for someone else's protection. I do not think you should lie all the time though or if you are lying for no reason. 
2.  I do not agree with this statement because if you do not have challenges in your life you will never develop problem solving skills. Also if you don't have any challenges you will never have the feeling of accomplishment.
3. I agree with this statement because if you are in a group they can help you accomplish your goals if they are too hard to accomplish on your own 
4. I do not agree with this statement because if you make the right choices you cant become smart enough to not do that again. And if you make wrong choices you can learn if you make the right choices you will never learn

1. 
I agree that it's alright to lie sometimes because if you don't lie then you could hurt someone's feelings. Even though lying is a terrible thing to do everybody does it. And in some situations you just have to lie. Also honesty is not the best policy.      
2.
I would have to disagree that it would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life because if you never have to deal with that then you will never learn from your mistakes. I also think experiencing difficult challenges makes you a stronger and better person. Also having difficulty challenges makes you a smarter and better person.
3.
I would have to agree that it is better to be a part of a group than to be alone because when I am with a group of people I seem to be more happier. Also being with a group makes things more fun and interesting. And doing stuff with a group is better than doing it alone such as going to the mall.  
4.
I would have to disagree that I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices because I like having the freedom to make my own wrong choices. And if I couldn't choose my life choices, I would never learn from them. Learning from mistakes helps me be a better and smarter  person. 
I would rather be able to
 I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices. So i can learn from them.

I think that it is ok  to lie if you are doing it for the good of another  person or someone else you know. It is also ok to lie if you are trying to help someone else or if it is a little white lie.
2. 
I think that it is important to experience difficult situations in order to improve your response to the situation. It also helps you to be more prepared and understand things better.
3. I think that it is better to be part of a group because you have someone to help you if you're confused. If you are alone you have no one to help you improve except for yourself.
4. I don't agree with the statement because making your own decisions is part of who you are as a person. When you don't have the right to make decision it takes part of your humanity away.
Isabel Street
Isabel Street
1. 
Yes, I have to agree, sometimes it is okay to tell little white lies. An example would be if you are telling a lie to keep someone safe, or telling a lie so nobody gets hurt.

2. 
I disagree, if you had no difficult challenges, then when could you learn. Learning anything new is always a challenge. Having to think about things a little harder isn’t always a bad thing. It can overall make you a better person.

3.
I agree and disagree with this one. Honestly it depends on what you’re doing. Some people like to work alone on things like projects while others like to work in groups.

4.
I have to disagree. I would rather make some wrong choices. What good does always doing the right thing do? Nobody would probably learn anything because you wouldn’t do anything wrong.

Joey Rule
Joey Rule
1. 
I think sometimes it is okay to lie as long as it is not a huge lie. For example if someone asked you when you are by yourself you would tell them no and say your parents will be right back.

2. Yes in some cases and no in some other cases. It all depends on what the challenges are and when they are and how they affect you

3. I think it is better to be part of a group. It good to be a part of a group because you will have friends to talk to.

4. 
I would rather have freedom and make wrong choices. There is a few reasons but one is that you are free and you can do anything but if you are not free you have every very strict. 
Savannah Flugum
Savannah Flugum
1. I believe that sometimes it is okay to lie. If you are planning a surprise for someone and they ask you about it you can’t exactly tell them the truth because then you will ruin the surprise. I think it’s okay to lie if the truth will come out later. 

2. I disagree. In life you need some challenges or it would get boring. Sometimes, difficult challenges can make you stronger and prepare you for other challenges that may be heading your way in the future. 

3. I would say that most of the time it is better to be part of a group. It is never fun to be all alone all of the time. It really depends on the person to decide whether they like to be in a group or not. 

4. I would not rather have the right choice made for me. Every person has the freedom to make their own choices and choose their own path in life. 
Riley Coult
Riley Coult
1. Yes it is because what if you are a grown up and have kids that ask you a lot of questions, you could lie depending on what the question was. If it's something personal you might not want to lie because if you do the person will find out sooner or later and they will probably get mad that you didn’t tell them. .(depending on what it was about)

2. I think It's better to experience difficult challenges in life because if you don’t then you won’t be prepared for you kids or  yourself in the future. 

3. I think It is better to be part of a group, because if you are alone you won’t have any friends and then you will be alone forever. It is possible to not want to be around people. 

4. I would want to have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices, because who knows what wrong decisions they could be.
Logan Kroeker
Logan Kroeker
1. 
I think that it is OK to lie sometimes but you should not get carried away and begin to lie all of the time. I think that it is OK to lie because sometime it is better for that person to not know the truth.
2. 
Not I think that the difficulties that a person faces defines the way that they are. I also think that if there were no difficulties then people would become dependent on those people to not have difficulties.
3. 
I think that it is better to be in a group more often than not because it is always to have other input and more brains working on something. But sometimes it is better to just work alone like the quote “if you want  something done right you have to do it yourself.
4. 
I disagree because what if the right choice is not the choice that you wanted to be made. Or who knows if by letting them make your own choices they may not stop there and maybe soon you have no control over any of your actions.
asa

It depends of you're believes. If you believe it is okay to lie. Or not to lie
No, it would not be better difficult choices is what defines us. It also tells us what to do.
It is better to be alone. Cause then you're less likely to be made fun of
I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices. So i can learn from them.

1. 
I do not think that it is okay to lie sometimes. I do not think that it is okay to lie sometimes because even if you are lieing to help someone they will most likely always figure out the truth
2. 
I do not think that it would be better if there were no difficult life challenges because then people would not get better at anything and we usually learn from challenging life experiences so if there no difficult challenges then we would not learn anything.
3. 
I think that it is much better to be in a group than being alone because if you are alone you cannot learn from other people and people need to socialize to be better people. I also think that it is better to be a part of a group than alone because being alone is just really boring.
4. 
I would rather make my own choices and have them be wrong than someone else make my choices and have them be right because the choices you make show what kind of person you are.
Chloe Terhark
Chloe Terhark
1. 
In my opinion I think that it’s not okay to lie.  I would rather want to know a hurtful truth than a comforting lie. sometimes it is okay to lie if it is protecting someone.
2. In my opinion I think that it would be better to face difficult challenges in life.  facing challenges is what makes you the person you are by going through difficult obstacles and how you overcome them. 
3.
I don’t agree with this statement but I also don’t disagree with this statement because it’s good to be in a group because then other people have your back and are there for you. Sometimes it’s also better to be alone.
4.
I disagree with this statement because in my opinion I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.  I would want to learn from my mistakes and become a better person because of it. 
 
Sadie Moosey
Sadie Moosey
1. Yes, I agree because if you are in a bad situation like when it’s a matter of life and death and you have to lie to protect someone else's life. Otherwise, I don't think it's okay to lie because then people won't trust you and lying often hurts people more than the truth does.
2. I don’t agree because  we couldn’t get stronger and learn from our mistakes. 
3. I agree because when you are in a group you can have more fun. And I also think that you tend to be more happy.
4. No, I don’t agree because we can’t learn because we wouldn’t make any mistakes. I like to have freedom because you feel more alive when you have the freedom to choose what you want to do.
Cassandra Bade

1.
Yes, I think it is ok to lie something not all the time though.  If you lie all the time you could get into a lot of trouble if you lie to much.
2. 
I think everyone should experience difficult challenges in life.  People need challenges life just can’t be easy for everyone.
3.
It is better to be a part of a group than being alone by yourself.  If you're by yourself you're not really connecting with other people you're just connecting to yourself.  Also being in a group you can talk about what’s going on in the world and not just talk or think by yourself.
4.
Yes, I would rather have the right choices made for me.  Then I will not get in trouble and I will follow my rights
Gavin Weinandt
Gavin Weinandt

Yes, A little white lie almost never hurt anyone. If we stopped lying we might hurt more people 

It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. 
No because we would not have that sense of fulfillment from accomplishing something. We would all be bored out of our minds.

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. 
I feel like better to be alone. When working in a group almost all my experiences lead to me doing it all.

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.

I’d rather have my freedom. Unless it's in a way where i’m unaware I don’t have freedom

Allie Carlson

1. I disagree with that. I disagree because if you lie you might get yourself in more trouble than if you just tell the truth. 
2. I disagree with that. I disagree because If you don’t experience difficult challenges you may not know how to handle tough situations when they come your way. So I would rather experience them now so that way I know how to handle them. 
3. I agree with that. I would rather be with a group. That way you have someone to talk to and if a scary situations pops up, you have someone else to face it with you. 
4. I disagree with that. I disagree because I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices. Even if they were the wrong choices, I would still learn from my mistakes. 
cale anderson
cale anderson
1. Yes because if it is for the better it should be allowed.
2.No because society wouldn't be able to grow without issues. We need to have issues to continue in our species.

3.Sometimes yes, but if it is something like a test, no never.

4.No because not all right choices are what you want. It would take the fun out of life.
Grace Eischens
Grace Eischens
1. I think it is ok to lie sometimes. To me, it is ok to lie to help somebody feel better.
2. I think that it wouldn’t be better to have no difficult challenges in life. The things that you fail at are what make you who you are.
3. It is better to be a part of a group because no one works better alone in my opinion. I couldn’t imagine being without a friend or a group.
4. I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices then to have someone else make them for me. What if I don’t agree with that person’s choice, then I wouldn't be happy and the point of a utopia, is everyone is happy.
Brooke Sonnek
Brooke Sonnek
1. I agree that  sometimes, it’s okay to lie, because sometimes you need to lie to not hurt someone’s feelings or to protect their reputation. Most of the time lying is bad, but it is easier to lie, than to hurt someone’s feelings.

2. I do not agree, because experiencing difficult challenges in life are what make up your moral character and who you are.  If you didn’t go through tough challenges, I don’t think you would even be a person anymore.

3. I agree at is is better to be apart of a group. Being apart of a group is what makes your “people skills” develop, especially if you have a large role in it. Being alone sometimes is good, but if you’re alone all the time you won’t know how to talk and interact with people.

4. I believe that I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choice, because wrong choices can lead to good things. As they say, sometimes a door to an opportunity has to close, for an even better one to open
Makena Dammer
Makena Dammer
1. It is okay to sometimes tell a little lie. Like if you were throwing a surprise party you have to lie to the person being surprised. But sometimes you just have to lie because it might be the right thing to do.

2. I think it would not be better to not experience any difficult challenges in life because the difficult challenges is how we learn. If we don't experience the difficult times we will never learn and we will not know how to have fun.

3. It is better to be apart of a group but it is also good to be alone sometimes. It depends on your mood and how you are feeling that day. But you should definitely have a group of friends to talk to and have fun with.

4. I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices because then again we can learn from our mistakes. If we don't learn we will never know and sometimes when you do the wrong thing you have learned something very important.

1. It agree with this statement because it is okay to lie if it is for something good. If you are protecting someone or something, or helping someone out, it is okay to lie. 

2. I disagree with this statement because difficult things in life make you stronger. You could appreciate things more if difficult challenges stood in your way that made you work for it. 

3. I agree with this statement because people need companionship. You need friends and people you can count on when you have trouble. 

4. I disagree with this statement because you need to learn from your mistakes. People need to know how to make the right choice, not have someone make it for them. 

Leah Quiram
Leah Quiram
1.I disagree with this statement because personally I think that even though every single person does lie and sometimes we don’t even realize that we are telling little white lies, I still don’t think it’s okay. Lying may seem like a solution in some situations and it's easy to do but  lying never actually benefits you in the long haul. 
2.I disagree with this statement because I believe that experiencing difficult challenges shapes us into better people and teaches us so much. Going through a difficult situation can really make you into a stronger and better person and you learn so many important things from experiencing it. 
3.I agree with this statement .When you’re apart of a group you have people who will be there to support you and help you through many situations and sometimes you can’t just do everything on your own and you need help from  someone.
4.I disagree with this statement because personally I like being able to make my own choices even if they are wrong. I don’t like the idea of all my choices being made by someone else even if they are the right choices because I want to have the choice and not be controlled by someone else.
Arianna Armendariz
Arianna Armendariz
1.
It only depends on the lie itself, if it were to protect someone until further notice then I feel like it would be okay to lie. If it were to be because of protecting yourself, then I don’t think that it is okay to lie.
2.
If we never did, then we I don’t think that we would learn from our own selves. Everyone should experience something difficult so we can all adapt to different changes.
3.
In some situations, it is better, but if it is personal, then I don’t feel like you should be in a group unless it also involves them personally. It would make sense to have some friends to help guide you along.
4.
I don’t think that making choices for yourself should be dependant on other people but yourself. If everything was made for us, then we would never know right from  wrong, it wouldn’t really be fair to the people themselves.

Mykayla Rasmussen
Mykayla Rasmussen
1. I would agree with this statement. Lying can be harmful but in some circumstances lying is essential to keep people from harm or pain. Just imagine if we didn’t lie, surprise parties would be pointless.
2. I would disagree with this statement. Although difficult challenges can cause us pain, its what we learn from it that makes us stronger. Without these challenges we would be weak and more vulnerable to the smallest of challenges instead of taking them head on. 
3. I would agree with this statement. Being alone, well, is lonely. Having people around you encouraging you and pushing you to be best self. It also helps to have someone to talk to, to get different points of views. 
4. I would disagree with this statement. I believe I would like to the freedom to make my own decisions even if it’s the wrong one. Making those decisions help he learn and grow as a person. 
Mason Dammer
Mason Dammer
1.I agree that it is ok to lie. If someone is at the door asking if your parents are home saying they are in the shower maybe true or you are lying because you don't know who they are. If you lie to much it can turn on you like the boy that cried wolf.

2.I disagree with that. If you never had to experience bad times then you would never have good times. You would never learn from your mistakes

3.I agree that it is better to be apart of a group. If you are alone then you would not know how to talk to people. It would help you in the long run when you have to work with other people.

4.I disagree with that. If you were never wrong then how would you know what is right. You would also never learn from what you do wrong if you do it right all of the time
Hailey Frank
Hailey Frank
1.  Yes, sometimes it is okay to lie. If it's for someone's protection, or their own well being. Sometimes you just have to lie or bend the truth to protect someone. Or maybe it's just for a surprise party, you can lie for that too. 

2.  Well, you kinda need to have difficult challenges in your life. They make you smarter and a better problems solver. sure, it would]]></description>

1) Sometimes, it’s okay to lie...Yes, because if you always told the truth you would hurt people's feelings and get yourself in trouble. I don’t think people should lie all the time but sometimes it’s good to lie. 

2) It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life... No, because you wouldn’t learn things well. If you had no difficult challenges nobody would be motivated to do anything.

3) It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone... Sometimes, I personally don’t mind being alone but I also like to hang out with friends when I can. I like working on projects and such alone because I work better by myself

4) I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices... No, because I wouldn’t get to experience a lot of things. In the past I have made wrong choices but that doesn’t mean I didn’t get a fun experience.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I disagree to this statement and here is why. if you lie to someone about something and then they tell someone else you forget about what you're lie was and they ask you and you make up different story and then they said the story they heard from a friend. And you say they made it up. That can tear up a friendly relationship with you're frend

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I think yes it is ok to lie if it keeps the other person happy. Because if its ruining someone's reputation it could ruin their life  

It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
No because you would have nothing to live for. And you wouldn't have to work for things 

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
Yes you will be happier about things and not be alone. And working together could be the best thing a person could ever have 

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
False i would want to make my own choices. Because it will lead me to have more fun in life 

Dillon

Sometimes its good to lie like if your with someone you think is lying to you can lie to get the truth out of them. But i dont suggest lying because if you are in trouble with a cop and you lie they can easily catch you lying and then you will be in more trouble
I agree cause if you are a mean person and you bully people and all of a sudden they commit suicide they probably did it because of you. So expeirenceing challenges could change you from a mean person to a really nice person.
Sometimes because if your with a group of freinds and they all do something bad then you will get in trouble but if then again you are going to need a group of friends to help with things but being alone it can be harder to do bad things if your smart about it
I dis agree because if you always make the right choices you will never learn. But if you make those wrong choices you can learn from them

HaileyAnn Dingman
HaileyAnn Dingman
Yes,under certain circumstanes. If the lie will damage or hurt someones reputation then it is not okay. But if the lie is something like a good superise therefor i say it is okay.

I think having difficult challenges in life is  a good thing because you do learn from them. Also you could stop someone or guide someone so they dont go through the situation.


Sometimes yes and sometimes no, because sometimes you need to focus and not have all distractions. And then yes so you are not sad and lonely
I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices. Because I would want to learn from them..

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
I disagree to this statement and here is why. I think it's false because you learn from you're mistakes by making the wrong choice and if you never decide the right choice it's not what you want. What you choose build your personality and lets other people see what you would do and how you would do. Which helps them see who you are. If you had someone always choose the right answer it's not showing people who you really are



Kayla Jordan
Kayla Jordan
1.Yes, it depends on the situation. Lying can make things a lot worse in the long run. If your lying to protect someone's feelings it would be different. 
2.No, because the problems that you go through make you who you are. If nothing bad ever happened then we would never know when to stop. 
3.Yes, you can get into some trouble if your in a group. If your by yourself the decisions you make is your fault. 
4.I would rather have the choice to make my own decisions. lt´s my life and when I make a mistake I want to be able to suffer the consequences.

I think it is because if something bad could happen if you didn't lie, but also if you do lie then there can be some consequences if it's something serious you lied about
2. 
I disagree because if you never have challenges then you won't learn on how to understand what other people are going through or you will never get better at something
3. 
Sometimes you will need to learn how to do stuff on your own
4. 
I disagree because you live and learn from your mistakes, and if you just had every choice made for you then you wont really have any relationships with anyone
Maggie Schommer 1.No, because if you tell this one little lie. That one tiny little lie can follow you everywhere and sooner or later the truth will come out.
        Maggie Schommer                                     1.No, because if you tell this one little lie. That one tiny little lie can follow you everywhere and sooner or later the truth will come out.
2. no , if you never have to experience challenges. then what is life, life is full of them and that's what keeps you going 

3.Yes it is better to be apart of a group, you can ask for help when you need it and it gives you people to confide in and to your feelings to. 
4. 
I would like to have the freedom to make my own choice because if someone else makes it for me i may have the experience to make my own choices ever. and if it comes down to one or the other like family of friend there is no right choice.

1.)
yes, sometimes you do need to tell a lie in order to help somebody or protect someone. It can help in some situations      
 2.)
 think it would be worse for you in the long run, because then you never learn and grow from those difficult times. So when something difficult does happen you won’t know how to deal with it. 
3.) I think it is better to be in a group because than you have a support system and you can take care of each other and help one another. 
4.)
I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices, because then I learn something from them.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
No, because if you lie you won’t stop. The lie will get bigger and bigger until the true comes out.
It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
No, because difficult challenges grow people in to the person they will become. No difficult challenges no truly good people in the world who will give back because they know how it feels. 
It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
Sometimes because you feels better when you can talk to people. Sometimes you need to be by yourself.   
I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.

I would rather have the freedom to have the wrong choices, because I will learn for my wrongs choices. In the future I will make the right choices well it matters.

1: Although it is bad, you can still lie. You can still lie if its to keep people safe or to help others
2: I don’t think it would be better to not experience any difficulties in life. In life, in order to grow up and mature you need to have some type of difficulties that hinder you.
3: It is sometimes better to be part of a group than to be alone. I say this because some days people just need to be alone more than in a group, but other days it is better to be in a group because that group can help with many things.
4: I would not have the right choice made for me instead of me being able to make the wrong choices. I say this because everyone needs to be wrong once in a while.

1.
It is okay to lie sometimes but not all the time. Because it can get you into either trouble or get you out of certain situations.
2. 
No it would not be better to not to have to experience difficult changes in life. Because if we never had to experience difficult things then we would be very weak and more than likely not be able to defend ourselves.

3.

Sometimes it is better to be part of a group, but sometimes it is not. Because you could make enemies while in a group and sometimes you could make friends.
4.

I disagree. I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices because it can be a big learning experience so that I won’t do it the next time.

1. Yes it depends on how far the lie can go. But sometimes people can’t handle the truth and it isn’t terrible to lie. 

2. No. We need to experience the worst in life to understand when it gets good. Life isn't perfect and we as humans need build a immunity like disease

3. Depends on what th group is about  if the group is doing something wrong or making you do something wrong. then yes it is better to be alone and proud that you still have your dignity and move on.

1.Agree, i think its okay to lie sometimes because you could be protecting one another from something in a situation. It depends on the situation.
2.
Disagree i think challenges shape you into the person you are, it helps you learn from them and try to do better next time. Some people might think it would be better to have no challenges because it would make life easier but then you wouldn't learn.

Agree, but it would depend on the situation. because being part of a group means that you have people there with you along the way. They are there to back you up in a way possible. They help you grow and learn.
4. 
Agree but disagree at the same time. Agree because at points it would be easier for the right choice to be made for me because it would help me but then im not learning from anything so it wont better me. Disagree also because soemtimes you need to be on your own and think for yourself.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. I think it’s ok to lie sometimes, It can be useful for some situations.

 It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. I think it would be worse. Because if you didn’t then if they did happen you wouldn’t have any experience with them. 

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. I think it would be better. When your alone you have no one to talk to about what your feeling and there’s no one to distract you from who you really are. 

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
I would not like to have my choices made for me. It would be dumb because I could get stuck doing something I don’t like.

1. Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is very wrong to lie. Why, because when you tell a lie it is hard to not tell another one and another one, then you will be in a big mess that you will have no idea how to clean up, and also if you just tell the truth in the first place then it will be a lot easier to ask for forgiveness. 
2. It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is good to experience difficult challenges in life. Why, because if you didn’t then you wouldn’t know what to do if something bad were to happen that has never happened before. You also might become a fake kind of person. 
3. It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
I think that it is better to be a part of a group. Why, because if you are in trouble your group can help you, they will be there when you need them and you are there for them. If you were alone then it might be hard for you to defend yourself, at the least two is better than one.  
4. I  would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
I don’t know what is better. Why, because making the wrong choice can be what you need to make the right choice, and sometimes the “right” choice might not be the best way to figure things out. Also if you are given the freedom to choose you might make the right decision anyway.

No, change is good. you need to experience new things 
Yes,  it is important to be a group. also is important to be alone

t would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life.
I do not think this is true because without these difficult times your personality would be bland and distasteful. But when you do endure these hard times you build character and become relatable.
Sorensen, Toby
Sorensen, Toby
1. Sometimes it is okay to lie. I think it is okay to lie because it can keep a person very calm during a stressful situation. 

2. No it would not be better to never experience difficult challenges in life. If you never face hard time you will not be built up for the time that get really hard

3. It all depends on the person, what there doing and what is going on. I say that because sometimes people work better by themselves then with a group and other times people need that help from other people 

4. I would rather have the choice to make my own choices. We grow from our past and our experiences in  life, and if we do not have that then we will not grow to be better people.
Carter
Carter 

Sometimes its OK if its for the better. If it’s a white lie, and saves someone from getting their feelings hurt of whatever, it’s fine most of the time.
No, since challenges make you stronger. Think about it, they don’t want antibiotics in meat anymore because it weakens our immune system, it’s the same type of things with challenges to our life.
No, not always. That “group” could be the mafia or something and that’s for sure not good. However, there’s good groups such as boy scouts and such.
I’d rather make my own choices, wrong or not. It strengthens you for other problems, such as having challenges in life. Choices form a better person (usually) in the end because you learn from them.
Kylie Christians
Kylie Christians
1. I think that lying is bad but sometimes it is okay. If it depends on someone's life then it is okay to lie but if it is for something that will save someone's reputation or prevent them from not getting hurt then it is okay.
2. I think that it is better to experience difficult things in life because it makes us tougher. People need to go through bad stuff to realize when the good stuff is happening.
3. I think that teamwork makes everything go faster and easy but sometimes you have to do stuff alone. Some stuff you can’t do with a group because you are the only one who can figure it out.
4. I would rather have freedom to make my own choices. Even if what I choose is wrong, I can still learn from my mistakes instead of having it done for me.
Aly Vaughan
Aly Vaughan

I agree, because sometimes it is to protect yourself. You on the other hand won't always be helping yourself out because your parents may already know the answer and then you go out lying to them about what you did/said etc. At this moment you are really screwed. 
I disagree with this due to the fact that in life you will always have hard or difficult things come up in your lifetime and you will need to know how to deal with them. Or you may not be exposed to the real world before you head off to college or anything really. 
I agree with this, because you will get the feel of talking with other people around your general age group. YOu will also get exposed to talking about real life situations. 
I disagree with this, because when my mom makes my choices she will always make me do my sisters chores and when i get to make my own choices i don't do them and ask my dad if he can take me shopping then i use the lying part and say mom said i didn't have to do my chores and that i can go to the mall even tho she told me to do my chores.

Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences)
I think that sometimes it is ok if it protects someone or helps out. If the lie benefits people instead of harming people than it is ok.
would it be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
I think that you should have to experience difficult things in life because you can learn from those experiences. You can benefit greatly by challenges in your life that you overcome.
It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
I think that sometimes it is better to be in a group and sometimes it is better to be alone. With a group you guys might not communicate well or be slowed down, and alone you won't have the assistance and company of others.
I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
I would rather make my own choices because I trust myself more than anyone else. I wouldn’t like to have my choices made for me, I would like to make my own and be my own peraon.
Caroline Schimek
Caroline Schimek 

Yes, I do agree with this statement. If it is a lie that will keep someone safe or is for the benefit of someone it can be okay to lie.
I strongly disagree with this statement. If you never experience difficult challenges than you don’t grow as much as a person or learn some valuable life lessons. 
I  both agree and disagree with this statement.  I feel like there are certain situations where being alone can benefit you, and certain ones where being part of a group or team can also benefit you. 
 both agree and disagree with this statement.  I feel like there are certain situations where being alone can benefit you, and certain ones where being part of a group or team can also benefit you. 
Hayden Kasprowicz

Yes, sometimes the truth hurts too much. It can be more beneficial to keep something secret.
No, you need to go through some real challenges  in order to learn about yourself. Hardships in life can make you a better person, have more empathy for other people, and be more humble.
It depends on the situation. I think it’s good to be apart of a teams sometimes, that’s why a lot of people including myself love sports.  You also need time alone to relax and learn about other things you enjoy doing, which is why it's good to spend time alone.
No, how can you expect to learn anything doing this. Sometimes the wrong choice is even more worth it in the long run and chances are you won’t look back and regret it.

Conner Andree
Conner Andree
Yes when you did something that hurt someone or something happened in the someones life. No because you should only speak the truth.

No because it shapes who you are as a person. It also is the rough spots in life you have to get past

Yes because they help guide you through life. It also helps when you have a job and work with someone.

Yes because then you have a easy path through life. Then you will never get in trouble , and you'll never cause harm to anyone.
Tom Loeffler
Tom Loeffler
Yes,because it can protect peoples feelings
Also can get you out of a sticky situation


No,because you learn from them
They make people tougher


Both,sometimes it is better to be in a group,others it is better to be alone.
You just need balance


Both,i would like another person's input
I probably wouldn’t like it,but it would be better for me
Peyton Zabel
Peyton Zabel
Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. - 
I agree with this statement because sometimes it is okay to lie. I believe this because sometimes lying to someone is the best way to keep them from getting hurt. You can lie to keep people out of harm’s way.
It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. - 
I think that having bad experiences in life can help you, but it can also harm you. It can help you because having to go through something bad can make you stronger and smarter from that experience. However, some experiences in life can impact you so bad that you cannot recover from them. 
It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone.  - 
I agree with this statement because I think that you should never be alone. Sometimes, you might want to be alone, and I think that it is good to be by yourself for a little bit of time each day. However, you should have people around you that are your friends so that you have someone to talk to.
I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices. - 
I disagree with this because you should be able to make your own choices. Even if you end up making the wrong choice, you will learn more from that then always having the right choice decided for you.


Colby Amundson
Colby Amundson
1. I agree because you sometimes have to stretch the truth so the person's feelings doesn't get hurt. You also have to lie sometimes about your age to get a video game.

2. False because the more difficult the challenge the more experience you have in life. I say this because you can learn many life lessons on your journey.

3. I agree because two is greater than one and three is greater than two. Like they say in the movies teamwork makes the dreamwork.

4. I disagree because the best part of life is making your own decisions. I mean what's the point of living if you can't make your own choices.
Carsten Schult
Carsten Schult
1.If in the grand scheme of things it will benefit you or the other person. Only in some circumstances.
2.No, because it’s the difficult challenges that will shape who you are as a person. It will show who you are also
3. Sometimes, of the group is going to slow you down then you would rather be alone. if the group with speed you up then the group is very useful
4. No, of you can’t make the wrong choice and never become wiser then you will always lean on someone else and not be able to do anything yourself. You have to be able to tell right and wrong and making wrong decisions is part of that
Madison Daly
Madison Daly
 Sometimes, it’s okay to lie. (2 or more sentences) 
- I agree and disagree with this because though you should never lie sometimes it is almost necessary. For instance let’s say that you are throwing your best friend a  surprise party. If you want it to be a surprise you must tell you friend a little lie. 

It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. (2 or more sentences)
- I disagree because I feel like difficult challenges are thing that make us stronger and prepare us for the next time something bad come about. Hard times teach us the things we have done wrong and help us to achieve better later on.

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. (2 or more sentences)
- I agree and disagree because it honestly depends on the situation. Somethings you have to have someone who you work well with to help you and other times it is better if you just do something by yourself. In a group you can here what others have to say and their opinions on something where as being alone helps you so you don't rely on someone to do the work for you.

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.
(2 or more sentences)
- I disagree because  If you have someone making the choices for you then you will never have the chance to make the wrong ones and learn from them. I would much rather have the freedom to make my own choices even if I make the wrong choice. I feel like if I let someone else choose for me it would be like they were controlling me.



Emily bellig
Emily bellig
1:I agree with this, but only when your in immediate danger or you absolutely need too. I don't think it's ok to lie to your parents because it could get you in trouble or it could possibly keep you out of danger.

2:No, if you never experience them then when they happen then you won’t  know how to react.But if you don't and you will never have to then i guess you're just a luck person 

3:Not always because sometimes you just need to be alone.But when you need to it's always nice to have someone to talk to about all your problems.

4:No, everyone should be able to make their own choices even if they are wrong.What will you learn if someone always makes the right choice but then you are given the chance to make your own and it's wrong, you won’t ever learn.

The Giver Quote Analysis - Chs 6-11


Speaker and Audience:Who said this? Who is it said to and what is the purpose?


 | The rules for Jonas’ assignment. If someone askes what he knows
Context:What is happening in the story when it is being said?


 | If Jonas can, then who else can?
Significance:What does the quote mean? What does it reveal about the characters/conflict/theme?


 | To take everything being said with a dumptruck of salt 
Connections: What does this quote mean to you? How do you see this idea in the world?




 | You can’t be sure of everything said 


Putting it all together:
Introduce the quote:When (event from the book-context) happened, (character’s name-speaker) says… | 
Jonas wanted to know if his family unit was liers 
Paraphase:“In other words…” | You don't have to tell what you know 
Analyze:Explain significance, tone/mood, literary device:“The author is trying to make us see that…” | Sceptical 
Evaluate:Why is this quote important? What real world applications and connections can be drawn from the meaning of the quote?“This story/passage had a significant impact on my thinking about…” |

1. Speaker and Audience:
Who said this? Who is it said to and what is the purpose?

- Jonas said this and his rules for his job said it. It’s purpose was to tell Jonas that he is allowed to lie with his new job and he was in awe when he found that out because ever since he was a little kid he was taught to never lie.

2. Context:
What is happening in the story when it is being said?

- When this quote was said, Jonas had just gotten the the rules for his new job and the last rule allows him to lie and he doesn’t like to lie or be untruthful.

3. Significance:
What does the quote mean? What does it reveal about the characters/conflict/theme?

- This quote means that Jonas has the freedom to lie whenever he wants. This reveals about Jonas that he is the kind of person who never lies, which isn’t unusual in this book because everyone tells the truth always, and he doesn’t like to lie or ever have the urge to lie.

4. Connections: 
What does this quote mean to you? How do you see this idea in the world?

- This quote means to me that no one in that world is allowed to lie so they need to be told that they are allowed to lie. This idea in this world wouldn’t make our world that different because we lie all of the time even though it is frowned upon we still do it. 
Maddy Lynch

1. Agree although I also disagree with this statement. I don’t agree with it because it isn’t right to lie to anyone. Although I do agree with it because at some point in time your going to have to lie to someone to protect someone else.

2.I disagree with this statement because if you never have difficult experiences in life how are you going to get strong. Also how are you going to learn to get past it and move on to the better things.

3. I agree and disagree with this statement. I agree with it because it is nice to be part of a group of people that you work well with and respect. Although I disagree with it because some people but do better alone or like to work alone.

4. I disagree with this statement. I disagree with it because it you always had the right choices given to you and you never had the wrong ones, how are you suppose to learn from them. Also if you don’t get to make your own choices how are you going to find yourself as a person.
Ethan Marzinske
Ethan Marzinske
1. I agree and Disagree with this statement. The truth hurts but sometimes it does need to be told.
2.I disagree with this statement. Difficult challenges are a chance to learn from them. They also give you the chance to grow from them.
3.It would depend on the situation. It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone if the situation absolutely needs a group to be done.
4I agree and disagree with this statement. It would be better to have more freedom but to also be told the right choices once and awhile.

Gracie Baer
Gracie Baer
1. No, I don’t think that it is ever ok to lie. I think this way because lying can cause you a lot of problems.

2. No,  I think that you need challenges. I think this way because this is how people learn and grow and a way to come together as a community.

3. I think it is better to be alone. I think this way because to many people make me overwhelmed.

4.I think it is better to make your own wrong choice. I think this way because people are not perfect and need to make mistakes sometimes.
Dylan Thompson
Dylan Thompson
1.I think that it is ok to lie sometimes if it is better for a person not to know the truth. If the lie could prevent something bad from happening then it would also be ok to lie.               

2. No, because difficult challenges make you better at a certain thing. They will help you learn from your mistakes and make you better at a certain thing or things.

3.Yes, because then you don't; have all of the burden on you to get the whole thing done. You have other people to help you get a certain task done.

4.I would always want to make my own choices .I would be able to change my mistakes and choose a different option next time. 
Emily Drummer
Emily Drummer
1. I believe that it is okay to lie because you're trying to protect a person that you love. I think that it is not okay when you lie not trying to protect anybody and you end up hurting them more than if you would’ve said the truth.

2. I think that it wouldn’t be better because most challenges are to test us on how smart we are/how easy it is for us to fail. I think that if there were no challenges the smallest things in life could just set us off like a bomb.

3. I think that it is better to be in a group because you have certain people to rely on that could end up being there for you for life. If you weren’t in a group you would be sad all the time and depressed.

4. I think that I would rather have somebody make choices for me because then life wouldn’t be as stressful. Where as today when you make your own choices people end up making wrong decisions imagine if that didn’t happen, it would be so easy.


John Lynch
John Lynch
1. I agree with this because you could be lying to be keeping them safe. If you are lying to them to keep them safe from something I feel like that is ok.

2. I disagree with this because you have to face challenges in life otherwise it would just be boring. The challenges in life and what shape you as a person.

3. I agree because being alone in life would be terrible no one to talk. If you were alone for your entire life there really no point to live you never get to interact with others.

4. I disagree because if someone is making all of your choices what's the point then. I feel as if you don't get to choose what you want to what's the point.
Jack Klinder
Jack Klinder
1.Yes, I think that it is alright to lie sometimes because it can be for a good reason. One reason could be to protect someone so they do not get hurt.
2.No, because sometimes i think that things like that can shape you as a person. I also think that it can help build character.
3.Yes, I think this is very trust because with a group of people you have a lot of people to talk to and to hangout with. You can also have a place to go and you have friends as well.
4.No, Because with freedom you can have that right to pink what you want to do. Another reason is that people learn from their mistakes therefore i say no.
Madi Nelson
Madi Nelson 
1. In my opinion I think that it is okay to lie sometimes. I think that it is okay to lie sometimes because if a person is going through a hard time you sometimes have to lie instead of making them feel worse. 
2. In my opinion I think that it would not be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. I think this because if we were not given these difficult experiences we would never realize 
3. In my opinion I think that it is better to be a part of a group. I think this because without people you would always be lonely and not ever have anybody to talk to.  
4. In my opinion I would rather have the right choices made for me. I think this because if you make a wrong choice something bad could happen to you or you could get hurt. If the right choice is made for you then there would be less of a chance of something bad happening to you. 
Cody Phillips
Cody Phillips
1. I agree because than if you don't want to hurt someone's feeling or something like that than it is a good thing. But if you do it too much than it is a very bad thing
2. I disagree because than you can't really learn for yourself if you already know everything and there's not really any point of even having those challenges
3. Depending on the person that you are like if you are doing homework some people like to do it alone and some like the help of others
4. I disagree because then you don't really know what the right choices really are. if you make the wrong choices you will know what you did wrong for next time
Hannah Schommer
Hannah Schommer
1. Liying deceives the heart, and tricks the mind. Even when you do it to protect someone it can cause even more damage than what the original lie would have done. 
2. Challenges make us stronger physically and mentally. Without challenge we wouldn't learn anything know any thing or be anything but mindless shells living a senseless life. 
3. With others one is made stronger we sharpen each other lift each other up. When the storms come they are a rock to hold onto. When the wind rages and the thunder boomers they are hands to grip and never let go. 
4. With no choice comes no freedom no new experiences. With no choice we have no life. A dog on a leash is safer with a short leash than a long leash or no leash with no leash it could run into the road and with a long leash it could choke itself.  
Ben Tauer

2. I think this statement is false. If we wouldn’t have challenges in life then what would be the point.
3. I think that it is better to be in a group however sometimes it may not be the best. Being in a group is a part of life and if you are alone all of the time than it may be boring.
4. I think that this statement is false. It is good to learn from your mistakes it is what makes you you.

In my opinion i think that sometimes it is okay to lie. Because sometimes it's better to say a lie then tell the truth if i benefits for someone else's well being
2.In my opinion i think that it's better to have difficult challenges. Because it defines you as a person and what you're capable of and it shows you have hard life can be and that you don't get things handed to you, you need to work for them.
3.In my opinion it think it is better to be alone. Because i think it's better to be alone then to be with the wrong/ bad group.
4.In my opinion i would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices. Because then i can learn from my mistakes.
Alidia Pierce
Alidia Pierce
1.I agree because maybe you are lying for a good reason. You could be lying so you don’t get in trouble but is better to tell the truth.
2.I disagree,because we need to have challenges otherwise we're just gonna get everything easy. We're not gonna understand if it’s always good in life.
3.It’s better to be in a group because it is healthier for you. It is sometimes better to be alone because if you are trying to do something then you don’t have to wait on your group or anything.
4.I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choice because if have the right choice then im not gonna be able to experience anything that is wrong.  
Amy Shaw
Amy Shaw

1. No, it’s okay to lie even when the truth will hurt. Even though the truth will hurt you shouldn’t lie to the person.
2. No, if we never had difficult challenges then how would we succeed in life. It’s better to have difficult times then to not have them.
3. Yes, even if you don’t like people it’s not fun to be alone. It’s so much better to be a group so you can get to know them.
4. No, I would rather chose my own choices. If I didn't chose my own choices life could be a bad.
Gabriela Otto
Gabriela Otto
1. Yes I do think it is okay to lie sometimes, because there are certain situations where you might need to lie to save/protect yourself. But it is not okay to lie when you know that it isn’t right.
2.  No It wouldn’t be better because going through difficult situations or challenges in life, can often help you in some way. After you overcome that challenge you can reflect on it, and see how it affected your way.
3.Yes it is better to be apart of the group because it can keep you safe. If somebody were to try  and hurt you while you’re by yourself then you can’t really do much, but if you have more than one person, then it gives you a better chance of protecting yourself. 
4.No I would rather make my own wrong choices, because if someone makes all of the decisions for you, then you can’t learn form those mistakes, but if you mess up or make the wrong decision, then you can learn from them and fix what you did wrong.

Devin Adms
Devin Adms
1. Yes, in my personal opinion it is okay to lie sometimes. Sometimes  lies protect people from the horrible truth that could destroy them forever.
2. No, I think you should experience difficult challenges in life. Difficult challenges can change people for the better and give them stories that they could tell there children or grandchildren.
3. Yes, I agree that it is better to be in a group than by yourself. A group can be people that you enjoy or people than shares the same views with you.
4.  Yes, I would rather have other people make my right choices. Those people could understand the situation more than me if I’m one sided.
Prajita Chauhan
Prajita Chauhan
1. I think sometimes it’s okay to lie because if the lie brings a smile to someone’s face and make he/she happy, that is a lie for a good purpose.

2.Well yes, life would be a lot easier if we never had to experience difficult challenges in life. But, in reality, life is full of challenges, and when we face these challenges actually it is a great-learning experience which helps to develop a skill to tackle other challenges in future and helps you gain self-confidence.

3.  Yes, it would be better to be a part of a group rather than to be alone, because if you are in a group than you collaborate with others and you share ideas between each other which helps you to know other’s perspectives in a same situation. This also develops our skill to work in groups.

4. In my opinion, I would rather have the right choice made for me because I don’t want to have the freedom to make my own decisions and regret for it later.. I would like to someone else make right choices in my life rather than ruining my life with the freedom of making my own wrong choices. 
Kiersten Pietsch
Kiersten Pietsch
1.
No, it is not okay to lie in my opinion because it is usually not a good thing to do. I will admit though, I am guilty of doing it before.

2. 
Yes, because sometimes difficult challenges in life can really bring a person down. I think it would be great to not have difficult challenges in life, because people would probably be happier.

3.
I think it is better to be a part of a group. Being a part of a group makes me feel happier, than being alone.

4.
I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices in life. Without being able to choose from my choices in life, I would never learn from them.

1.If it is a life or death situation I think it is ok to lie.If it is not a life or death situation I think it is not ok to lie.
2.I think if you didn't have any difficult challenges in life we wouldn't learn anything.If we didn't learn anything the world would be dumb.
3.I think it is better to be a part of a group rather than work alone because when you're working in a group you have more than just one person with their ideas.When your working in a group you can talk to your friends too
4.I would rather make my own choices rather than have someone else make them for me.If someone made all the right choices for me I wouldn't learn anything.
Kaleb Sorenson
Kaleb Sorenson
1. I agree with this statement because if you lie for someone else's protection. I do not think you should lie all the time though or if you are lying for no reason. 
2.  I do not agree with this statement because if you do not have challenges in your life you will never develop problem solving skills. Also if you don't have any challenges you will never have the feeling of accomplishment.
3. I agree with this statement because if you are in a group they can help you accomplish your goals if they are too hard to accomplish on your own 
4. I do not agree with this statement because if you make the right choices you cant become smart enough to not do that again. And if you make wrong choices you can learn if you make the right choices you will never learn 
Annika Wick
Annika Wick 
1. 
I agree that it's alright to lie sometimes because if you don't lie then you could hurt someone's feelings. Even though lying is a terrible thing to do everybody does it. And in some situations you just have to lie. Also honesty is not the best policy.      
2.
I would have to disagree that it would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life because if you never have to deal with that then you will never learn from your mistakes. I also think experiencing difficult challenges makes you a stronger and better person. Also having difficulty challenges makes you a smarter and better person.
3.
I would have to agree that it is better to be a part of a group than to be alone because when I am with a group of people I seem to be more happier. Also being with a group makes things more fun and interesting. And doing stuff with a group is better than doing it alone such as going to the mall.  
4.
I would have to disagree that I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices because I like having the freedom to make my own wrong choices. And if I couldn't choose my life choices, I would never learn from them. Learning from mistakes helps me be a better and smarter  person. 
I would rather be able to
 I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices. So i can learn from them.

1. 
I think that it is ok  to lie if you are doing it for the good of another  person or someone else you know. It is also ok to lie if you are trying to help someone else or if it is a little white lie.
2. 
I think that it is important to experience difficult situations in order to improve your response to the situation. It also helps you to be more prepared and understand things better.
3. I think that it is better to be part of a group because you have someone to help you if you're confused. If you are alone you have no one to help you improve except for yourself.
4. I don't agree with the statement because making your own decisions is part of who you are as a person. When you don't have the right to make decision it takes part of your humanity away.
Isabel Street
Isabel Street
1. 
Yes, I have to agree, sometimes it is okay to tell little white lies. An example would be if you are telling a lie to keep someone safe, or telling a lie so nobody gets hurt.

2. 
I disagree, if you had no difficult challenges, then when could you learn. Learning anything new is always a challenge. Having to think about things a little harder isn’t always a bad thing. It can overall make you a better person.

3.
I agree and disagree with this one. Honestly it depends on what you’re doing. Some people like to work alone on things like projects while others like to work in groups.

4.
I have to disagree. I would rather make some wrong choices. What good does always doing the right thing do? Nobody would probably learn anything because you wouldn’t do anything wrong.

Joey Rule
Joey Rule
1. 
I think sometimes it is okay to lie as long as it is not a huge lie. For example if someone asked you when you are by yourself you would tell them no and say your parents will be right back.

2. Yes in some cases and no in some other cases. It all depends on what the challenges are and when they are and how they affect you

3. I think it is better to be part of a group. It good to be a part of a group because you will have friends to talk to.

4. 
I would rather have freedom and make wrong choices. There is a few reasons but one is that you are free and you can do anything but if you are not free you have every very strict. 
Savannah Flugum
Savannah Flugum
1. I believe that sometimes it is okay to lie. If you are planning a surprise for someone and they ask you about it you can’t exactly tell them the truth because then you will ruin the surprise. I think it’s okay to lie if the truth will come out later. 

2. I disagree. In life you need some challenges or it would get boring. Sometimes, difficult challenges can make you stronger and prepare you for other challenges that may be heading your way in the future. 

3. I would say that most of the time it is better to be part of a group. It is never fun to be all alone all of the time. It really depends on the person to decide whether they like to be in a group or not. 

4. I would not rather have the right choice made for me. Every person has the freedom to make their own choices and choose their own path in life. 
Riley Coult
Riley Coult
1. Yes it is because what if you are a grown up and have kids that ask you a lot of questions, you could lie depending on what the question was. If it's something personal you might not want to lie because if you do the person will find out sooner or later and they will probably get mad that you didn’t tell them. .(depending on what it was about)

2. I think It's better to experience difficult challenges in life because if you don’t then you won’t be prepared for you kids or  yourself in the future. 

3. I think It is better to be part of a group, because if you are alone you won’t have any friends and then you will be alone forever. It is possible to not want to be around people. 

4. I would want to have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices, because who knows what wrong decisions they could be.
Logan Kroeker
Logan Kroeker
1. 
I think that it is OK to lie sometimes but you should not get carried away and begin to lie all of the time. I think that it is OK to lie because sometime it is better for that person to not know the truth.
2. 
Not I think that the difficulties that a person faces defines the way that they are. I also think that if there were no difficulties then people would become dependent on those people to not have difficulties.
3. 
I think that it is better to be in a group more often than not because it is always to have other input and more brains working on something. But sometimes it is better to just work alone like the quote “if you want  something done right you have to do it yourself.
4. 
I disagree because what if the right choice is not the choice that you wanted to be made. Or who knows if by letting them make your own choices they may not stop there and maybe soon you have no control over any of your actions.
asa
asa
It depends of you're believes. If you believe it is okay to lie. Or not to lie
No, it would not be better difficult choices is what defines us. It also tells us what to do.
It is better to be alone. Cause then you're less likely to be made fun of
I would rather be able to make my own wrong choices. So i can learn from them.

1. 
I do not think that it is okay to lie sometimes. I do not think that it is okay to lie sometimes because even if you are lieing to help someone they will most likely always figure out the truth
2. 
I do not think that it would be better if there were no difficult life challenges because then people would not get better at anything and we usually learn from challenging life experiences so if there no difficult challenges then we would not learn anything.
3. 
I think that it is much better to be in a group than being alone because if you are alone you cannot learn from other people and people need to socialize to be better people. I also think that it is better to be a part of a group than alone because being alone is just really boring.
4. 
I would rather make my own choices and have them be wrong than someone else make my choices and have them be right because the choices you make show what kind of person you are.
Chloe Terhark
Chloe Terhark
1. 
In my opinion I think that it’s not okay to lie.  I would rather want to know a hurtful truth than a comforting lie. sometimes it is okay to lie if it is protecting someone.
2. In my opinion I think that it would be better to face difficult challenges in life.  facing challenges is what makes you the person you are by going through difficult obstacles and how you overcome them. 
3.
I don’t agree with this statement but I also don’t disagree with this statement because it’s good to be in a group because then other people have your back and are there for you. Sometimes it’s also better to be alone.
4.
I disagree with this statement because in my opinion I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.  I would want to learn from my mistakes and become a better person because of it. 
 
Sadie Moosey
Sadie Moosey
1. Yes, I agree because if you are in a bad situation like when it’s a matter of life and death and you have to lie to protect someone else's life. Otherwise, I don't think it's okay to lie because then people won't trust you and lying often hurts people more than the truth does.
2. I don’t agree because  we couldn’t get stronger and learn from our mistakes. 
3. I agree because when you are in a group you can have more fun. And I also think that you tend to be more happy.
4. No, I don’t agree because we can’t learn because we wouldn’t make any mistakes. I like to have freedom because you feel more alive when you have the freedom to choose what you want to do.
Cassandra Bade
Cassandra Bade
1.
Yes, I think it is ok to lie something not all the time though.  If you lie all the time you could get into a lot of trouble if you lie to much.
2. 
I think everyone should experience difficult challenges in life.  People need challenges life just can’t be easy for everyone.
3.
It is better to be a part of a group than being alone by yourself.  If you're by yourself you're not really connecting with other people you're just connecting to yourself.  Also being in a group you can talk about what’s going on in the world and not just talk or think by yourself.
4.
Yes, I would rather have the right choices made for me.  Then I will not get in trouble and I will follow my rights
Gavin Weinandt
Gavin Weinandt

Yes, A little white lie almost never hurt anyone. If we stopped lying we might hurt more people 

It would be better to never have to experience difficult challenges in life. 
No because we would not have that sense of fulfillment from accomplishing something. We would all be bored out of our minds.

It is better to be a part of a group than to be alone. 
I feel like better to be alone. When working in a group almost all my experiences lead to me doing it all.

I would rather have the right choice made for me than to have the freedom to make my own wrong choices.

I’d rather have my freedom. Unless it's in a way where i’m unaware I don’t have freedom

Allie Carlson
Allie Carlson
1. I disagree with that. I disagree because if you lie you might get yourself in more trouble than if you just tell the truth. 
2. I disagree with that. I disagree because If you don’t experience difficult challenges you may not know how to handle tough situations when they come your way. So I would rather experience them now so that way I know how to handle them. 
3. I agree with that. I would rather be with a group. That way you have someone to talk to and if a scary situations pops up, you have someone else to face it with you. 
4. I disagree with that. I disagree because I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices. Even if they were the wrong choices, I would still learn from my mistakes. 
cale anderson
cale anderson
1. Yes because if it is for the better it should be allowed.
2.No because society wouldn't be able to grow without issues. We need to have issues to continue in our species.

3.Sometimes yes, but if it is something like a test, no never.

4.No because not all right choices are what you want. It would take the fun out of life.
Grace Eischens
Grace Eischens
1. I think it is ok to lie sometimes. To me, it is ok to lie to help somebody feel better.
2. I think that it wouldn’t be better to have no difficult challenges in life. The things that you fail at are what make you who you are.
3. It is better to be a part of a group because no one works better alone in my opinion. I couldn’t imagine being without a friend or a group.
4. I would rather have the freedom to make my own choices then to have someone else make them for me. What if I don’t agree with that person’s choice, then I wouldn't be happy and the point of a utopia, is everyone is happy.
Brooke Sonnek
Brooke Sonnek
1. I agree that  sometimes, it’s okay to lie, because sometimes you need to lie to not hurt someone’s feelings or to protect their reputation. Most of the time lying is bad, but it is easier to lie, than to hurt someone’s feelings.

2. I do not agree, because experiencing difficult challenges in life are what make up your moral character and who you are.  If you didn’t go through tough challenges, I don’t think you would even be a person anymore.

3. I agree at is is better to be apart of a group. Being apart of a group is what makes your “people skills” develop, especially if you have a large role in it. Being alone sometimes is good, but if you’re alone all the time you won’t know how to talk and interact with people.

4. I believe that I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choice, because wrong choices can lead to good things. As they say, sometimes a door to an opportunity has to close, for an even better one to open
Makena Dammer
Makena Dammer
1. It is okay to sometimes tell a little lie. Like if you were throwing a surprise party you have to lie to the person being surprised. But sometimes you just have to lie because it might be the right thing to do.

2. I think it would not be better to not experience any difficult challenges in life because the difficult challenges is how we learn. If we don't experience the difficult times we will never learn and we will not know how to have fun.

3. It is better to be apart of a group but it is also good to be alone sometimes. It depends on your mood and how you are feeling that day. But you should definitely have a group of friends to talk to and have fun with.

4. I would rather have the freedom to make my own wrong choices because then again we can learn from our mistakes. If we don't learn we will never know and sometimes when you do the wrong thing you have learned something very important.

1. It agree with this statement because it is okay to lie if it is for something good. If you are protecting someone or something, or helping someone out, it is okay to lie. 

2. I disagree with this statement because difficult things in life make you stronger. You could appreciate things more if difficult challenges stood in your way that made you work for it. 

3. I agree with this statement because people need companionship. You need friends and people you can count on when you have trouble. 

4. I disagree with this statement because you need to learn from your mistakes. People need to know how to make the right choice, not have someone make it for them. 

Leah Quiram
Leah Quiram
1.I disagree with this statement because personally I think that even though every single person does lie and sometimes we don’t even realize that we are telling little white lies, I still don’t think it’s okay. Lying may seem like a solution in some situations and it's easy to do but  lying never actually benefits you in the long haul. 
2.I disagree with this statement because I believe that experiencing difficult challenges shapes us into better people and teaches us so much. Going through a difficult situation can really make you into a stronger and better person and you learn so many important things from experiencing it. 
3.I agree with this statement .When you’re apart of a group you have people who will be there to support you and help you through many situations and sometimes you can’t just do everything on your own and you need help from  someone.
4.I disagree with this statement because personally I like being able to make my own choices even if they are wrong. I don’t like the idea of all my choices being made by someone else even if they are the right choices because I want to have the choice and not be controlled by someone else.
Arianna Armendariz
Arianna Armendariz
1.
It only depends on the lie itself, if it were to protect someone until further notice then I feel like it would be okay to lie. If it were to be because of protecting yourself, then I don’t think that it is okay to lie.
2.
If we never did, then we I don’t think that we would learn from our own selves. Everyone should experience something difficult so we can all adapt to different changes.
3.
In some situations, it is better, but if it is personal, then I don’t feel like you should be in a group unless it also involves them personally. It would make sense to have some friends to help guide you along.
4.
I don’t think that making choices for yourself should be dependant on other people but yourself. If everything was made for us, then we would never know right from  wrong, it wouldn’t really be fair to the people themselves.

Mykayla Rasmussen
Mykayla Rasmussen
1. I would agree with this statement. Lying can be harmful but in some circumstances lying is essential to keep people from harm or pain. Just imagine if we didn’t lie, surprise parties would be pointless.
2. I would disagree with this statement. Although difficult challenges can cause us pain, its what we learn from it that makes us stronger. Without these challenges we would be weak and more vulnerable to the smallest of challenges instead of taking them head on. 
3. I would agree with this statement. Being alone, well, is lonely. Having people around you encouraging you and pushing you to be best self. It also helps to have someone to talk to, to get different points of views. 
4. I would disagree with this statement. I believe I would like to the freedom to make my own decisions even if it’s the wrong one. Making those decisions help he learn and grow as a person. 
Mason Dammer
Mason Dammer
1.I agree that it is ok to lie. If someone is at the door asking if your parents are home saying they are in the shower maybe true or you are lying because you don't know who they are. If you lie to much it can turn on you like the boy that cried wolf.

2.I disagree with that. If you never had to experience bad times then you would never have good times. You would never learn from your mistakes

3.I agree that it is better to be apart of a group. If you are alone then you would not know how to talk to people. It would help you in the long run when you have to work with other people.

4.I disagree with that. If you were never wrong then how would you know what is right. You would also never learn from what you do wrong if you do it right all of the time
Hailey Frank
Hailey Frank
1.  Yes, sometimes it is okay to lie. If it's for someone's protection, or their own well being. Sometimes you just have to lie or bend the truth to protect someone. Or maybe it's just for a surprise party, you can lie for that too. 

2.  Well, you kinda need to have difficult challenges in your life. They make you smarter and a better problems solver. sure, it would]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>I believe it’s alright to lie.  But only sometimes and not to often. If you doing it for good reasons it’s alright. You can be keeping a secret for a friend. But lying to get away with something is not alright or lying about things you have accomplished is not alright. </li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>I disagree, if you never experience difficult times  you will never improve yourself. If you don’t push yourself or get pushed by others you will not become better. Persevering through tough situations is when you become a stronger person. #trusttheprocess </li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1 - I think under the right circumstances SOMETIMES it’s okay to lie, but nothing that destroys someones career, life etc. Also if your lie is going to hurt someone physically, that’s not okay either<br>2 - No, you need to have difficult experiences in life. They make you a stronger person and they help you deal with life better, not expecting everything your way<br>3 - I think it all depends on your personality, if you are an introvert then you do better by yourself, if you are an extrovert then you do better by yourself. I personally need people around, I’d probably go insane if I never saw a human ever again<br>4 - You should have the freedom to make your own choices, good or bad. We learn from our mistakes</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>It depends the situation in my opinion. Being on a team is great to have to work on being a leader and a teammate. But you need to be able to do things on your own. You have to be confident and independent to succeed. </li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>
