The School Project

The Project A little while ago, there were two boys named Alexis and James. They had a project to do for school. They had to describe what was a home. But they had a problem. They didn’t really know what made a home or what was the difference between a house and a home. - “We’re toast!” said Alexis. - “Don’t worry, Alexis, we’ll find out what is a home. If we don’t, I agree, we might be in trouble.” James said. The next day, they woke up and as soon they were done with breakfast, they started taking notes and thinking about what makes a home a home. - “Got anything yet?” said James. - “Nope” replied Alexis - “Oh I know, video games! “said James - “No” replied Alexis. “Wait. What about family members?” - “Yes, but why? “Replied James. - “Well, think about it, if you didn’t have family members, I bet you would not be responsible. For instance, I bet you would eat a lot of sugar! You would play a lot of video games and you wouldn’t have money to buy stuff” said Alexis. So they started writing. When they were finished, they thought about what was the “feeling’’ of a home. -“You feel comfortable in a home,” said Alexis. - “You feel safe in your home” said James. They started writing down all their ideas. The next day was the day of the presentation. When they were done, the teacher gave them an A+. _______ I hope you understand what makes a home for me, HFH people.
