Good morning,

I am excited for the day ahead.  You guys deserve it!

Your homework for tonight:

Option 1:

“His crying got to me. Miss O'Brien said the judge could sentence me to 25 years to life. If he did, I would have to serve at least 21 years and 3 months. I can't imagine being in jail for that long. I wanted to cry with the guy.”

As a student, you know a lot about rules and consequences for breaking rules.

1.    Would being grounded a month be a fair punishment for not doing one homework?

2.    If a student doesn’t follow a rule, what would be the best way to teach him/her a lesson?  Explain why?


Option 2:

“His crying got to me. Miss O'Brien said the judge could sentence me to 25 years to life. If he did, I would have to serve at least 21 years and 3 months. I can't imagine being in jail for that long. I wanted to cry with the guy.”

(If convicted—Steve would stay in prison until he's a middle aged man, all for being the lookout.)

Task:
Would this be a fair indictment (punishment)? Why or why not?
