I took away from that speech that actually the peers in the schools have the power over somebody else's day even though that the teachers have the explicit power.

What I took away from Dr.Thompson's speech was this: It doesn't matter if you are popular; it matters if you have 1-2 wonderful friends.

What I took away was even though you are not popular by other people, you will always be popular in your family's eyes.

I know but didn't mr buxton say if you didn't finish it in class, you have to do it at home? He said it to me.

What I took away from the talk today was that everybody is beautiful, and everybody is popular. Popular is just a statement, not a need.

I took away form Dr.Thompson's speech to be grateful for your friends because some people dont have any. Also the only people who can make you feel down is other kids.

What I took away from Dr. Thompson's talk today was that even though teachers have explicit power to make a kid feel a certain way, the kids are the ones with implicit power, and the implicit power has a greater impact than the explicit power.

I took away from Dr.Thompson's speech is that popularity is not important. What's really important is a loyal, adventurous, fun friend. And accept that you have good friends.

What I took away from the talk was that popularity is not important; However, have 1, 2, or 3 good friends is good.
