Tuesday Of The Other June Essay
After reading the story “Tuesday Of The Other June” By: Norma Fox Mazer and looking at the picture and listening/reading the lyrics to the song “Invisible” By: Hunter Hayes, it clearly shows that the topic of all three of these is bullying. These are some of the reasons why I think the topic of all three of these is bullying. After looking at the picture of the little boy getting bullied and not trying to fight back or do anything about it made me think that the theme is bullying. What I am trying to say is that we should never bully because think about the way others are feeling and do not always think about what makes you popular of cool. Showing the kids bullying the kid on the picture shows that you should never bully, he might not look like he is hurt on the outside, but on the inside he is probably really hurt for having people saying bad things …show more content…
It says “ Crowded hallways are the loneliest places, For outcasts and rebels, Or anyone who just dares to be different, And you've been trying for so long,To find out where your place is,But in narrow minds, There’s no room for anyone who dares to do something different.” This is saying that there are bullies everywhere, but if you dare to do something that they think is uncool or if you do something that makes you look like an idiot they won’t accept you for who you are they will bully you because you are not cool and make you feel really hurt. It also say, “Those words cut deep but they don’t mean you're alone, And you’re not invisible.” This is saying yea they might bully you, but you are perfect the way you are and remember that you are never alone someone is just like you and you are doing the best you can do. Also it is saying you should never bully because the people that you bully might feel hurt and feel like they're invisible. This is another reason why I think the topic is bullying for these

    Jeannette and her siblings were constantly getting bullied from other kids, in school and the neighborhood, for being too poor. The Walls’ children also underwent a lot of bullying from their parents. During Jeannette’s first days at her school in Welch, she got an abundance of bullying from a group of girls. Jeannette describes one of their encounters, “‘This girl ain’t got no buttons on her coat!’ she shouted. That seemed to give her the license she needed. She pushed me in the chest, and I fell backward. I tried to get up, but all three girls started kicking me” (139). Jeannette knew that she looked poor and recognized that the girls were badgering her for being poor, and that they got their power because they thought they were better than Jeannette. Jeannette’s tone of struggling and defeat displays how she’s tired of getting pushed around and bullied for the social class that she lived in, which drove her to become better and make big goals for herself. While recalling one of these many fights, Jeannette admits her acceptance of her living condition when she says, “As we fought, they called me poor and ugly and dirty, and it was hard to argue with” (140). Other kids were always teasing the Walls’ about their living conditions and seemed to find joy in hurting the children physically and verbally for living in the poverty that they were in. Jeannette’s use of the words “it’s hard to argue with” shows her…

    The last possible theme that I think is good for this book is to never have fear and if you do have fear, you won’t survive. One event that supports this theme is when Uri tells the other orphan boys that if you have fear you won’t survive on the streets. This is true because if the boys had fear to steal the food from stores and people they would mess-up a lot or not even do it. If that happened, they would either get caught and killed, or just end up…

    Everyone is bullied at some point, but the bullying August went through was cruel. It began with calling him names, such as “monster”, “rat boy”, “freak”(p.139), and so on. It advanced to Julian leaving notes in August and his friend’s, Jack Will, lockers. At the end of the year, Mr. Tushman, the middle school director, had told him he “wished he and Jack would have came to him about the notes”(p.473). Even though teachers are supposed to be mature, it doesn’t mean they always act that way. They didn’t mean to be rude, and August knew that, but it bothered him even when they would stare or hesitate for “a millionth of a second”(p.75). Bullying like this, especially for kid as young as August, can…

    Rikki-Ripson Theme Essay

    The theme is the moral or life-lesson we learn from a short story. Rudyard Kipling, the author of “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi,” made it obvious that the theme of this story is “greed can lead to negative consequences.” I can support this with loads of evidence. For example, the cobras were greedy, evil, and cruel, and they were punished. On the other hand, Rikki was selfless, content, and courageous, and he was rewarded. Notably, some people think “knowledge can help us prepare for the future” is the theme, but this is not true. I know I have hit the nail on the head with this story’s theme.…

    The theme of It's Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini is life is filled with problems, but you need to work through them, and learn about yourself. An example of this being the theme is while Craig is in the hospital he discovers his love for art after realizing how much he enjoys art Craig decides to go to art school instead of his original high school. By adding this the author wanted the reader to recognize Craig making concrete plans for his future. This showed that Craig learned about himself and what he enjoys doing giving him a reason to live. This reminds me of when I was younger and played club soccer. Another example of this being the theme is the end of the book when Craig continuously tells himself to live. This is significant…

    The teachers see the school as “bully-free” because their soft eyes refuse to see the brutality of some kids and the fragility of others. My teachers would never suspect I cork my emotions into a glass bottle with the word caution smeared across the front. To them I haven’t a care in the world. They refuse to believe that I am alone, or that I’m not as smart as they may expect, or that I care about being these things. They ignore the years I’ve spent alone. They don’t know that I squeeze myself into the lunch table, between two groups of friends. I don’t have any “friends.” I only have a few people who tolerate…
