  1. I think fitting into cliques is important to people because people in the group has similarities to the others in the group, so that means none of the people in that group bully anyone because they're not that different from each other and bullies usually bully people that are different from the bully. The people in cliques also have friends that stick up for them when a person in that clique is being picked on. The types of people that are considered "cool" in our school are people who always want attention by saying something mean or always showing off. Also people who are considered "cool" they usually have people as back up like when the "cool" kid got in trouble he would blame it on his ''back up people'' and they are to scared to say something about it so they just take the punishment.

  3. I say fitting into cliques is important in school. I state this this because if you have no friends you will be very lonely. Also this makes you a good target for being bullied. I say this because if you have no one to back you up it will be you vs. a group of kids that don't like you. The people that are considered being "cool" are the kids that get in trouble are the kid that talk when the teacher is talking or doing things that they shouldn't do.

  4. I think it is important to people to fit into cliques so there not lonely and sad and so they have someone to hang out with in and after school. Also if your inn a clique you have people to back you up and stick up for you. For example if you are getting bullyed the people in your clique will stand up to the bully hopefully and tell them to stop bullying you. If your not in a clique and you get bullyed then there is nobody to stick up for you and stop the bully from bullying you. The "cool" kids in our school is everyone. Everyone is "cool" in there own special way.

  5. I think fitting into cliques is important to people because being in a clique means that you surrounded yourself with people that care about you and are loyal to you. Think about, if you had friends and they didn't care about what you thought what you were saying would you really consider these people your friends? To be in a clique is important because these people make you feel good and pick you up when you feel down. " There will be bumps in the road you travel down but no matter what as long as you have good friends to be there for you, you will always find a way around them!"
    The people that I consider "cool" are the people that go out of their way just to make someone feel good about themselves, people that stand up for someone getting bullied. Not only that but being cool to me is not about being popular because you are good at sports or anything like that no in my book cool means that this person is kind, generous,and positive! They also don't laugh behind someones back or make up lies about that person. That is what I think being "cool" means.

  6. I think its important to fit into cliques so they have friends and their not lonely and so they have people to hang out with after school. Say if your not in a clique then if you get bullied there is no one to stick up for you.If you are in a clique then if you get bullied your friends will hopefully stand up for you and stand up to the bully so they don't get picked. The ''cool'' kids are the kids that get into trouble a lot and don't listen to directions or rules.

  7. It is important to be in a clique because you have friends to hang out with and people to stick up for you. If you weren't in a clique you would be lonely and bullies would just tease you all day. The cool kids are the people who don't pay attention and get in trouble.

  8. It is important to be in a clique because if you don't fit in somewhere, then your whole school year will be lonely and sad. If you do fit in somewhere, then you have your own group of friends that you can talk to and tell secrets to, which will make you less lonely. Also, if you get bullied, you'll have someone to stick up for you. Another reason why it's important to be in a clique is that out of school you have someone to play with and you know that you're special to that person. Remember to be yourself and don't act like someone your not. The people that I think are considered "cool" are the ones that have have a big group of friends. Normally the most popular girls are the pretty ones and the most popular boys are the sporty ones.Some things "cool" cool kids do is make there own rules and always make people laugh.Most of all popular kids are positive and nice. Thats what I think a "cool" kid in our grade is.

  9. It is important to be in a clique because if you don't have a clique then you basically you don't really have a group of people to hangout or be with. If you don't have a clique or fit in to one then you won't be given help or advice when you need it. Also, friends in a clique can keep secrets for you. If you get bullied or something you won't have someone to stick up for you and have your back. The people that are considered "cool" maybe that think they are cool are the people that cause or get into trouble. Next maybe people think if you have something other people don't have for example, having like a cool electronic device. Usually the pretty girls and the athletic boys are popular and cool. I think everyone should be treated like they are cool.

  10. It is important to be clique because if you aren't you will be lonely and wouldn't have a group of friends to be with. If you are clique and someone bullies you someone for you group of friends might stand up for you.Also if you are not clique you don't fit in and someone might will bully you. People that are considered "cool" is the people that are like popular or the pretty girls athletes or jocks. Also people that are considered "cool" is people that think they are fancy and all that like they are better than everybody else. But every living soul should be treated like they are cool in the good way instead of the bad way.

  11. It is important to be in a clique because you will have friends and you wouldn't be so lonely. Also, if your with a clique your friends can maybe stick up for you when there is a bully. If your not with a clique a bully might pick on you because there is nobody who is sticking up for you. People in our school who are considered cool are people who are not smart, get in trouble a lot, and jocks. I think everybody should be considered cool in our school.

  12. It is important to be in a clique because you have people that got your back if something happened to you like for example say one of your family members dies, they can cheer you up and help get you through it. Also you have people to talk to and not be so lonely. People who are considered "cool" are mostly jocks or people who don't like rules and get into trouble.

  13. I think fitting into cliques is important because if you didn't have anyone around and a bully is picking on you your clique wont be there to help you and you would keep getting bullied. I think people think there cool in this school but really they think that just because they get in trouble for being funny even though they get in trouble I don't think there cool. I think real cool people follow the rules and have a vivid personality. Those people are cool. I think people hang out with the people who think there funny but are not just to think there cool. So they way to be coll is to just be kind and that's cool enough.

  14. I think being in cliques is so important to people because it is a group if friends. This group of friends that you might be in most likely has your back. If they do have your back you can go to them if your having trouble with something or little things like that. Some people in cliques may consider themselves,"cool". These people that say they are cool, may just think that because they get in a lot of trouble or something. usually in movies or books you see that the really athletic kids are considered,"cool". That is my whole opinion on being,"cool".

  15. I think it is important to be in cliques because is something happened to you like someone tried to bully you, you would have backup from your group. You would also have someone to share secrets with. The people considered cool in our school are people who play sports and people who have I phones. In movies a lot of pretty girls are popular and sporty people. I think the cool people should be the people who are friends with everyone and help others not the people who play sports. Cool people should be cool because who they are not who you hang out with.

  16. I think being in cliques is important to people because they would want to keep their own secrets. I also think it is important because if you get bullied you have your friends could back you up. There are a lot of people that are "cool" for example, people who are really smart and some kids who are just really jockey. People are bulling other kids from verbal bulling, physical bulling, and cyber bulling such as fighting for physical and facebook, twitter, instagram etc...I think everybody should be able to be cool and be in many cliques.

  17. It is important to be in a clique because if your friends are always right there with you than you wont ever be alone or afraid of being bullied. You can also have someone to share your special secrets with. Also, you can have someone to laugh with and be with every second without being ashamed for who you are as a person. you do have to pick carefully who you decide to be friends with because things do go wrong. Remember, BE YOUR OWN PERSON. Some of the cool kids in our school are able to fit in any clique in school. Even though there are kids considered cool I think that everyone has so many special qualities that you cant even tell that they are not considered popular! Even though cliques are good to have sometimes they can be dangerous depending on the type of kids that are in them. If it is a clique of bullies than don't try to get involved. Cool kids are sometimes the ones who get in the most trouble, and aren't the smartest kids in the school. Just because they call themselves cool does not mean that you are not as special, creative, athletic, and popular as they are!!!!!!!!!!!
