Essay: Write a 3-part assertive statement to a teacher who falsely accused you of turning in your homework late.

Either way, I turned it in the day the assignment was due, making it not overdue, but just barely on time. |

Essay: Write a 3-part assertive statement to a friend who keeps making plans with you and then cancelling at the last minute. Student Answer: I see you keep making plans, and then cancelling them. If you have plans, either don’t cancel them or don’t schedule them in the first place, because otherwise, it makes more people angry at you, and they would be your friend anymore. |
