In the examination last week,\nI saw you hid your notes in your drawer. Why did you do this? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I don\u2019t know why you did that, but I\nbelieve that you don\u2019t want to do that. Is there any problem on studying? If\nthere is a problem, feel free to chat with me. I can help you. But even so, you\nshouldn\u2019t do this. This is a dishonest behaviour, to yourself and the teacher. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Maybe you think that the teacher will\nnever find it out, but I still encourage you to admit your wrongdoing. This is\nabout honesty. And if the teacher finds it out, the result may be very serious.\nDemerits might be given! Is that really worth to take this risk? Besides, even\nif the teacher does not find it out, then you may try it again and again&#8230;and\nuntil one day, your behaviour will be discovered. Is that really worth it? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Also, honesty is really important to us.\nHave you ever heard the story of George Washington and a cherry tree? Washington cut down his father\u2019s\nfavourite cherry tree. Although his father was really angry with it, Washington\nstill admitted that he was the one who cut down his tree. At last his father\ndid not blame Washington, but appreciated his bravery and honesty. This story\nshows that honesty is really important to us. Even Washington had the courage\nto admit his fault, I think you should do it too. Maybe the teacher will reduce\nthe punishment because of your honesty and bravery. I\u2019ll be supporting you!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\nAt last, I really encourage you to admit what you have done. If you\u2019re\nscared, don\u2019t worry. Don\u2019t forget that I\u2019ll always be here supporting you!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\nBest wishes, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Chris<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<!-- wp:paragraph --><p>HPat<\/p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><p>How are you?
