oct 2 reading task


In chapter 17 Miles says:

"The way I see it, it's no good hiding yourself away, like Pa and lots of other people. And it's no good just thinking of your own pleasure, either. People got to do something useful if they're going to take up space in the world."

Use ideas from this text and your own ideas/opinions to answer the following:
 
  • Do you think it’s important to make a difference in the world today?  
  • What people do you think make a positive impact on the world today? 
  • What do you do in the school to make a difference? 
  • What kind of difference would you like to make in the future?
