Sami Smith presents a report arguing that she and her older sister Emma should be given their own rooms. Some of the key reasons provided include that Emma is now 14 and needs privacy, they constantly fight when sharing a room, and having separate rooms would reduce stress in the home and allow their friends to sleep over more easily. Sami provides potential solutions like dividing their big room in half or remodeling part of the basement. She acknowledges the cost but emphasizes that having her own room would make her very happy.

1. Why you should give Emma and me our
own room

2. Easy Reasons:
• You love me
• You want me to have the best possible
life that I can have
• Seeing me happy makes you happy
• Emma Mary May Smith
• I’m ten years old!!!

3. More detailed reasons:
• I need my own space
• Emma is already fourteen she needs
privacy to change
• I'm constantly fighting with Emma
and if we were separated it would take
a big toll off you
• Our rooms would be cleaner
• If our friends come over we wouldn’t
have to worry about what rooms we
would sleep in

4. Comparison
Why we should get our own
rooms
• We would stop fighting
• You wouldn’t be
bothered by our
constant bickering
• We would both be
happy!!!
• Our rooms would be
cleaner
Why we shouldn’t get our own
rooms
• It’s a lot of money
• Some might even say
it’s too much work
• When will we find the
time
• Where would we get
the supplies
• We would constantly be
yelling at each other to
“ get out of my room”

5. Seriously !!!
I would be as happy as this little kitten

6. Some Solutions:
• Emma and I move into the big room and
divide it in half
• We work on the basement so we could at
least have a lounge area if we don’t get our
own rooms
• We could move to that house next to the high
school that you liked
• If we do have to share a room at least make it
bigger so we can fit all of our stuff

7. Dear Daddy,
I am feeling a little crammed I that tiny
room and, I know that giving me my own room would
be very, very expensive, but it would make me very,
very happy!!! I just want you to know that even if I
don’t get my own room I will still be happy but not
quite as happy as I would be if I had gotten my own
room.
Thanks for taking the time to watch my power point an
maybe even give it some thought
Love,
