Me, Me, And Me by Renata Hopkins Response

 Me, Me and Me by Renata Hopkins


Why do you think Nina’s parents did not want her to have a phone?

Because they thought/knew she only wanted a phone because she wanted to impress her friends, because her parents said there's a difference between wanting something and needing something.


What were the motivations for Nina to buy a phone?

She was so motivated to get a phone, because she was tired of people bragging about how many likes they got from their posts on their phones which made her want a phone.


What did Nina do to earn  money to buy her phone?

Vacuuming gran’s house and cleaning her windows for four months.

 

How old do you think Nina is?

13-14 yrs old.


Why do you think this text was written?

So kids don’t get too attached to phones. 


Who is the text written for? What ages and why?

I think this text was written for all kids who want phones not for a good purpose, but to impress other people. I also think this text is for all ages because most kids these days just want a phone.


Would a college student learn a lesson from this text? What would the lesson be?

Maybe, I think it's maybe because yes they can learn something from this text and maybe not because they could just read this and not take anything to use.


Is Nina cybersmart? What supports your answer?

No, because she barely knows anything about a phone because when she just got the phone and because she finds every surprising thing very amusing to her.


Were Nina’s parents responsible parents? Why?

Not really because they shouldn't've given her a phone unless she had a good reason on why she wants/needs a phone.


Write down the pros and cons of having a phone for your age


Pros

Cons

Helps with school work

Distraction from doing work

It’s  portable

Tempting to go on it almost all the time

A portable device for research

Collects a lot of bacteria on the screen from your fingers

Good for entertainment

Drama can be formed online with other kids

DRAMA FREE !

Drama online can turn into a physical fight



Write down what Nina could have done to ensure she was responsible with using her phone


  1. Not using it very often

  2. Be Cybersmart

  3. Stay On Task

  4. Only go on your phone when necessary 

  5. Don’t message people you don’t know 

If you were to give advice to Nina, what would it be?
