Killing Mr. Griffin

Tuesday we finished reading Killing Mr. Griffin. The book was good but had a weird ending. I didn't like the part when they tied Mr. Griffin up and he had a heart attack and died. Mr. Griffin really loved teaching and wanted the kids to get a good education. My teachers are similar to Mr. Griffin when it comes to helping us. They are willing to help if we have questions. I know I work as hard as I can and sometimes I still need help. When I go to my teachers for help they are very understanding. Mr. Griffin would stay after school to help his students. Mrs. Porter has stayed after school to help me and last year Mrs. Chapman did a study group after school to help her students. I feel like any of my teachers would be willing to stay to help us. I thought it was sad that Mr. Griffin died. I don't feel the students really meant for their prank to end that way. Sometimes we don't think before pulling a prank on someone. I think we should give more thought to our actions before we actually do them. A lot of times people are really hurt by some of the things we say or do. Maybe we are only playing around but sometimes it hurts really bad. I have never pulled a prank on anyone. I try to be friends with everyone.
