Being judgemental
Examples
Lynne is one of the characters who is
judgemental. After she read about the
book written by William Bradburie in the
library, she was filled with anger. She said
that Geoff is cheating in the short story
competition even though she has never
read Geoffs story before.
Explanation
A creative idea or innovation like is not
always original because we will take idea
and inspiration from different resources to
make improvement. The same goes with
story writing, the originality does not really
exist because our storys idea will come
from the story that we read, our
experience and our surrounding.

Moral Values
Honesty and
courage
Explanation
Honesty and courage are
about being brave to tell
someone the truth. We
must take responsibility to
the mistakes that we have
done.
Examples
Perseverance
Avoid being
judgemental
If we are perseverance, we
will not give up easily even
the job is challenging or
difficult. We will keep on
trying until we achieve
success.
We must not be
judgemental because the
truth might be different
from what we think. If we
do not know the detail of
the situation, we should
not make the conclusion
too soon.
