Hello Miss Ale,

I think the quote means that the people appreciate and takes to account the responsability you have on something that you have been assigned. They don't care (sometimes) if your task was wrong of correct, because you learn from mistakes, but they do specially care if you are responsable and you take care of your assignments. I think this has to be with uou telling us the assignment ( post a comment every day ) and us to keep this task every day, taking care and being responsable.

see you back soon after you come from your conference.

I think that the quote is talking about how when you're really great, when you have power, like when you're a king or something, you feel a certain responsibility to the people you have power over. I'm guessing you put this on your blog to try to get people to be responsible, if they ever becomed great in later life. Great idea! Also check out my blog at http://duncanmtpleasant.edublogs.org/

Hi Miss Ale
I agree with all the people who left comments on the posts, on the way that we all say the same in different words or expressed diferently. I think you want us to realize that to be grate and successful in everything you do in life, you have to be responsable. Like the responsability of blogging once a week that you have given us, we have to comply it and be responsable with it to be great and successful.
I wish you enjoy and have a nice trip!! Good luck with the presentation!We'll blog a lot for you to bring us sweets!!!jajaja
I'll continue blogging although your not here!!
See you next week

Hello Miss Ale,
A quotation is something that you take from a book and say it, with the name of the writer or the man who said it.

To me it means that for you to have greatness you have to be reponsable in your acts also in your thoughts.

Dear Miss Ale,
I think that this means that if we are to be great in life we need to be responsable. I think you put it here because now that we have a lot of things to do, we need to be responsable to be great at those things.

Hello Miss Ale i think the same as federico, i think what you want to tell us is to be more responsable to be great, cause now we are the biggest of the shool and we have responsabilities.

Hi miss Ale:

I think that what you mean is that if you want to be greatfool you need to be responsable. Because if you are responsible, you are organized and you can do things better (that means great).

I think what you mean here is that us as 6th graders have responsibilities (such as more homework) but also have privileges (the lockers) and the only way to have good things is to have some responsibilities.
