provide students with a better education.
This was my last stop of the day. I couldn’t wait
to get home and eat dinner. I climbed the steps
and rang the door bell. A long haired dog ran to
the window and started barking loudly at me. “Be
quiet!” I heard a girl whisper. “Mom’s trying to
sleep!.” The barking stopped as a brown haired
girl opened the door. She signed for the package
I had brought her. Finally I could head home!

I was lying on the couch trying to sleep when I
heard the doorbell ring. I rushed to the door,
looked out the window, and started barking at
the woman at the door. “Be quiet! Mom’s trying
to sleep,” my owner whispered loudly to me. I
headed back to the couch as the door was
opened.

“Ding-dong!” I opened my eyes, wondering if I
should go get the door or try to go back to sleep.
Just as I had decided to try to sleep, Fido started
barking loudly. “UGHHHH,” I groaned, as I climbed
out of bed. I headed for the front door just in time
to see my daughter taking a package out of the
postal worker’s hands.

Point of View Practice
Schools that have uniforms are often more
successful. Students are less worried about what
they are going to wear to school or what other
students are wearing, and more concerned with
their school work. Since many jobs require
employees to wear certain clothing, having
school uniforms is also good practice for the real
world outside of school. Also, school uniforms are
often cheaper than other clothes, which makes
school more affordable for everybody.
