You lost your Salem Witch Trials packet for Social Studies class. You need a new one, but you're afraid to ask your teacher because this is the second one you've lost. How will you handle this?

• Do NOT email your teacher asking for another one! He/She will be very upset with you!

• Send an apologetic email to your teacher and thank them for their help and time in getting you another packet.

• Send an email to your teacher with a story about how it really wasn't your fault. Your dog ate it!

• Send an email asking for another one. No apologies or thank you's needed. This is your teacher's job after all.
