hk115+Improving+Our+World

=Helping Makes a Difference= = = =Last year when there was a big winter storm, lots of elderly people needed help shoveling their driveways. That's one way that you and I can help improve the world. It can be through shoveling driveways or even through donating food to the food drive. Some people think it takes too much work and effort to improve the world, other people know that it can be as simple as giving some extra cans of soup to a food drive. Anne Frank once said, "How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." I believe people can improve the world by helping people learn things they do not know, Taking responsibilities for your own actions, and finding ways to help your community.= = = =One way people can improve the world is by helping other people learn things they do not know how to do. In the book //Holes// by Louis Sachar, a boy named Stanley helps another kid named Zero learn how to read. At first, Stanley did not want to help Zero, so Stanley came up with an excuse that he was too tired to teach. Eventually Stanley realized it was the right thing to do. One way I could help improve the world is by teaching my five year old cousin some techniques in T-ball.= = = =Taking responsibility for your actions is another way to help improve our world. This means that you have to be doing things that are better for the world. For example, you should start recycling, recycling really improves the world. For example, you should not be littering, there are no positives to littering. Its horrible for our world. In a biography I read about Derek Jeter, he says he started recycling when he was 12. While some people think its not so bad when you throw trash on the floor, others know you really should put it in a trash can.= = = =A third way you can help is by finding ways to help your community. You can help the world by improving your community. I do simple things such as shoveling elderly people's driveways, or picking up littered trash at the park. Also, it doesn't require physical activity. Just drive to a super market that is doing a food drive and drop off extra cans of beans or soup. When I go shopping with my mom, and the super market is doing a food drive, we would by cans of soup to give it to them.= = = =Even though some people say they can't recycle because they don't have a recycling bin, you can just drop it off at a recycling center near by. I wonder if there are people who want to help improve the world? I wonder if people realize how simple it can be to improve the world? I believe people can improve the world by Helping people learn things they do not know, Taking responsibility's for your own actions, and finding ways to help your community.= = = = = = =
