6th Grade Review

Name: _______________________

Read the dilemma below and answers the questions.

THE SITUATION

Sam knew something was weird the second he got to class on Tuesday morning. He saw kids
whispering and pointing at him. Some were looking at him funny. He sat down next to his best
friend and picked up the graded report the teacher, Mr. Crosby, had graded over the weekend.
Sam looked at the ” A-“ and forgot about the rest of the class for a minute. He had worked hard
at that report and was thrilled it had paid off. He looked up and saw a bunch of kids staring at
him. While the teacher cleaned up the white board, Sam whispered to Dylan, “ What’s going
on?” Dylan, looked down and said quietly, “Conner told everyone you copied your report from
the internet.” “ But, that’s a lie!” Sam said. “I never cheat and everyone knows it.” He was hurt
and angry. He couldn’t focus the rest of the morning in class.

At recess he went up to Conner and asked him if he had really told everyone he had cheated. “
It’s no big deal,” Conner scoffed. “ I only told a few people. Lighten up. It was just a joke.” Sam
turned and walked away. He wanted to yell at Conner, or hit him, or something. He just wanted
to make Conner feel as bad as Conner had made him feel.

For the next two days, Sam avoided Conner but Sam and Dylan made up as many lies as they
could think of about Conner to get back at him. They told kids that he was jealous of anyone who
did well in school because he almost failed fourth grade last year. They told the girl Conner liked
that he still wet his bed sometimes. But it wasn’t helping. Sam was still just as mad at Conner. In
fact, all he thought about now was Conner and what he had done.

On Friday, Mr. Crosby had all three boys stay to talk with him during recess. He told them they
had until the end of recess to work out whatever it was that was going on between them. If they
had not all forgiven each other by the end of recess, they had to go to the principal’s office. Then
Mr. Crosby left the classroom.
The three boys stared angrily at each other waiting for someone to say something. Sam didn’t
know what to say. All he knew was that he was tired of being mad and hurt. What could he do to
make it stop? And what did Mr. Crosby mean by all forgive each other?
