CIRCULAR



Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Dear Mrs. Patricia and Mrs. Diane,

We are a group of sixth graders who has the topic of “Fashion Pressure”, and we hope to make a positive change with our action. We wanted to ask you for permission to accomplish to:

1. Make a “Non-brand day”. Kids can come with any cloth that expresses there self’s, and the most important that is comfortable. There is only one condition for this day, and it’s that other kids cannot bully or make fun of the other students if they don’t use a brand cloth. Maybe you will be thinking this isn’t an idea that will help a lot, but it’s because before this day we are also giving out a circular announcing this day and explaining why, for what, how is it going to work at school and how it’s going to help people.

2. If you can let us participate in a radio show in “RADIO SONORA” to make a direct action by teaching people how to say NO! And tell them the ways that this action can make a change. We are also teaching them how to notice when are their children falling into this problems and also how to avoid this problems.

3. And finally we are writing a newspaper article, which mostly talks about how fashion pressure e is affecting kids/ teenagers, and it teaches the parents how to help their children so they don’t let themselves get easily persuaded by wrong people. We hope that you give us permission to make our actions. We are really expending lots of time on all this things so we could have success on our “No brand Day”, on “Radio Sonora” and on our article on “El País”.
