We can learn some DIY skills in her class. She often teaches us how to paint, repair, and even cook. On Thursday, Miss Green gave us a special lesson—making potato printings. What you need are potatoes, thick paint, a large knife, a small knife and some paper. First, decide what shape（形狀）you would like to print（?。﹚ith your potato. Simple shapes work best and are easiest to make. Try hearts, moons, suns, and flowers to start with. Once you39。ve had some practice, try more shapes like cars, boats, faces and numbers. And then, cut a potato in half with the large knife. Use the small knife to make an outline（輪廓）of the shape you want to make on one half of the potato. Next, cut away the unwanted potato, about a quarter of one inch deep, around the outline of the shape. And then put the potato printing into the thick paint. At last, press（按）the potato printing onto any paper to make your printings. All of us were very happy to make our own printings.

However, next year the high schools must do one of the following: ●Either make students buy school uniforms （in other words, all students must wear the same uniforms） ●Or say which colours must be worn, but let students buy their own clothes in these colours. A survey made at Central High School, Philadelphia, showed that most of the students didn39。t think that wearing school uniforms was a good idea. Rachel didn39。t like the idea of a uniform in the slightest. It makes us look like prisoners（囚犯）. Everyone is different, so why is the school trying to make us all the same? Sandra was wearing a brightly—coloured shirt with her jeans. No one else wears a shirt like mine, she said. I39。m the only one, and I like and I like that. l can understand that the school needs a dress code（準則）. It39。s a problem if students e to school with their shirts open. We all understand that, but no one wants a uniform. Even my mum thinks it39。s silly. Only one student, Ben, said he didn39。t mind wearing a school uniform. He said, I used to wear a school uniform when I lived in Australia for a year. It wasn39。t so bad. You can wear a uniform and be still tidy.
