Sorry guys. I'm being cheeky and taking another turn. I saw this quote today and it really got me thinking. There is so much happening around school at the moment and the days seem to be flying by. Sometimes we need to stop, take a deep breath and acknowledge the here and now. So if Jane Goodall is correct and we can't get through a single day without having an impact on the world then what did you do today to make a difference?

In my opinion this quote means that if you do your homework today and others do it the next day, Mr.Ian might say who have finished their homework can get some extra genius hour time. If you're genius hour project is on spreading the word on saving trees you might save a banana tree which might save a monkey which will prevent monkeys from starving.This is what the quote is in my opinion.

I think " WHAT YOU DO MAKES A DIFFERENCE AND YOU HAVE TO DECIDE WHAT KIND OF DIFFERENCE YOU WANT TO MAKE" means if you are learning a new language or something and you are finding it very difficult you can ask your teacher to help you if you haven't really tried asking... that will make a difference and you can decide what kind of difference you want to make by thinking ' I should ask a teacher if I can't do this' or you can say to yourself ' this dog needs help and he has no owner so i'll keep him for a week and take him to the vet to ask if every thing is alright with the dog, and then i'll find someone to take care of the dog' you could also help others when they are having trouble learning/doing something.

I think Jain Godel means that you can make a difference if you try. For example Jain Godel studied many chimpanzees. Jain Godel went there because she wanted to learn more about chimpanzees. Jain Godel was the first one to go on that island. Nobody else went to the island were there are many chimpanzees because people thought that chimpanzees are very very dangerous. Jain Godel slept for many days on the island. Then one day Jain Godel saw a chimpanzee go from tree to tree and behind the chimpanzees came another and another. After some days Jain Godel became one of the chimpanzees. The chimpanzees trusted Jain Godel. Every day Jain Godel went the chimpanzees to know more about then. every step or movement the chimpanzees make Jain Godel rights down. Jain Godel discovered many new thing about the chimpanzees and Jain Godel also found out that same people were wrong about chimpanzees. Like people said that chimpanzees are not smart at all but that is not true. Chimpanzees are very smart. Like one day Jain sow one chimpanzee who toke a stick and liked it. Then the chimpanzee put the stick were the ants live. After that the ants got stuck to the stick and could not get off. Then the chimpanzees took the stick out and then they eat the ants on the stick.

in other words for me it would be the action you take makes a different but anyway you can do anything even if its one person trying to help animals ore raising money for something that will make a difference for example lets say im raising money for children's right I only earn a little still makes a difference and it also shows keep on trying

WHAT YOU DO MAKES A DIFFERENCE MEANS: You can do anything if you try. If someone else does something that you can not do it does not make a difference. What you do can almost always change or can make a difference. You can not make a day without changing one tiny thing in this society. No one can stop you from making a difference they have no rights to do so. Every movement you make can cause a chain reaction to the impact of our world.No matter what you can always make a difference even by taking a step.

I think the most important thing is HOW you make a difference.You can make a good difference or you can make a bad difference.The Muslims believe that there is going to be a day called the day of judgement where we get judged by our lord who will put us in HELL or HEVEN depending on all the good differences we made and all the bad differences we made.That i s also the day that we think will be the END of the world.

If you make one small thing like score a goal or grow a plant or cheer some one up that makes a difference even though you just did something small you could change some ones day you could even change your day like if you cheer some one up you probably feel good for your self.

What you do makes a difference. It means that which ever good things you do to the World it makes a difference, for excample a difference I made today was to help out the smaller kids at the Nordic school, and I could see that it made a difference because they all loked very happy after I had helped them to build a sand castle and stuff like that.

You can not get through a whole day without having an impact on the world around you what you do makes a difference on the world around you and you have to decide what difference you want to make.

I think that WHAT YOU DO MAKES A DIFFERENCE means that what ever you do can make a difference because if to a question you say true then you will get a different score to if you say false. This can happen everywhere and different consequences will happen either good ones or bad ones. I believe that every time you have o do a decision, the universe branches, one having option 1, another having option 2 and etc.

The precept what you do makes a difference is not a stand alone sentence it's part of a speech this means I may be talking about the whole speech . In my opinion this precept connects to the inspirational person I was studying in grade three Anne Frank her precept was you're never to young to make a difference. When you recycle a can you make a difference , when you turn of the tap you make a difference this precept means the little things you do can help the world. I go to girl scouts and a lot of times what we do in girl scouts is about will this help,will that help. You can make a difference no mater how much you doubt yourself. To make a difference you don't always have to try to make a difference it's the kind of difference you want to do that makes you think.If you want to choose what kind of difference you what kind of difference you want to make you need to think about what you like to do.For example I want to discover the cure for diseases without cures because I love science.
