Mail Pail

Here's all the mail GWN received this week:

Debate Time (Which Trophy?):
“Special Trophy. Everybody could get 4 trophies. A special trophy makes people feel special.” Deanna Wong, 5th grade
“I would would get a special trophy because you know it's special with your name on it.” Cynthia Yao, 5th grade
“I would rather have 4 trophies, because if you had 1, people might think you earned 1 for only 1 subject.” Susan Pham, 5th grade
“I would rather have a special trophy because it will have your name on it. 4 trophies can't really mean anything. It just means that 'someone' got these 4 trophies.” Chloris Li, 5th grade
“I'd rather get 1 special trophy with my name on it because 4 will take up space and 1 will be more special.” Emily Wang, 4th grade
“4 trophies, because the more the merrier.” Alex Zhou, 2nd grade
“I would choose 1 special trophy because people would admire one thing and it won't take up so muck space.” Yiming Ye, 4th grade
“1 special one, because people would respect it.” Nicole Tong, 5th grade
“I'd rather have a speical tropy with my name on it.” Shudong Zhou, adult

Debate Time (Update Debate):

“You shouldn't have a Shout Box on you site because people will see your answers for the debate before the issues come out.”Susan Pham, 5th grade
“GWN should not allow that. Some readers think that their own debate is sort of private until the next issue. Other website people (not GWN readers) will know how the GWN editors and readers are communicating!” Chloris Li, 5th grade
“Yes, you should use the shoutbox, because some people obviously don't have email.” Alex Zhou, 2nd grade
“Yes [you should allow the shoutbox for debate] because I don't have email.” Yiming Ye, 4th grade
