Have you ever wondered what makes you smile everyday, even when you’re mad? Well, I’m going to talk about what makes me happy when my day is bad. What makes me smile is being with my friends, recess, and Mrs. Murphy.
The reason my friends make me feel better, especially when I’m sick, is that I talk to them and they make me laugh and relate to me. Like I was once sad about a personal problem at school, and after talking to them, they changed my day.
The reason that recess makes me feel better is I play soccer and socialize with others from different classes. I also can burn energy! The most fun thing about recess is having extra time.
Lastly, the reason that Mrs. Murphy makes my day feel better is because she makes me laugh and changes my day. Mrs. Murphy changes my day because sometimes when I can’t focus, she tells me to breathe in and out.
In conclusion, I believe that having friends, getting recess time and talking to a teacher makes me happy. Having all these things can make me and you happy and focused!
