A. Wasn't.. This is because if you seperatevthe contractioninto two words it is was not, this would make the sentence be "Wally was not capable of lifting the heavy box."
If you were to do the same thing with weren't it would sound like "wally were not capable of lifting the heavy box." This does not make sense because "wally" is singular (so is "was not") and "were not" is pleural.

Hope this helps

50 POINTS!!!! Write an paragraph about the importance of participating in an activity you enjoy, OR explain why you find a hobby
GREYUIT [131]

Answer: I find drawing really enjoyable a lot. When I draw, it just takes my mind off of the bad stuff and helps me cool down. When we draw, we can think of lots and lots of creative ideas and maybe show it to others! Also,         drawing can help us get better with our emotions, inspire us, or possibly tell stories! Another advantage of drawing is increasing our memories. For example, if you had an upcoming test, exam, etc, you can draw your notes or answers in some sort of form you like, to help remember it.

(Hope this is good enough. If not, just tell me -v-)

Bullying at school 120-150 words
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

It is evident that there is a correspondence between school bullying and cyber-bullying. Currently, most schools have a non-tolerance policy concerning acts of bullying taking place during school hours or on school grounds, but have yet to incorporate the aspect of cyber-bullying. With the use of technology in schools, the act of cyber-bullying is taking place more often in school than just outside of school.

After interviewing 20,000 students, it was found that approximately 26% of students are victims of bullying that took place during school hours (Schneider, O’Donnell, Stueve, and Coulter 173). This same research documented that in addition to school bullying, approximately 16% of students are victims of cyber-bullying. When researchers compared students being bullied at school to those being cyber-bullied, it was found that 59% of those victims being cyber-bullied were also victims of school bullying and 39% of students being bullied at school were also cyber-bullied (Schneider, O’Donnell, Stueve, Coulter 173).

With cyber-bullying being increasingly wide-spread, it is essential that schools incorporate cyber-bullying prevention into their anti-bullying policies. Works Cited Campbell, Matthew. “School Policy Responses to the Issue of Cyber-Bullying.” Journal of Catholic School Studies 83.2 (2011): 62-69. Print.

Educators and administrators need to educate students and parents on identifying acts of bullying, as well as the effects of bullying. Parents and students must also be encouraged to report acts of bullying. To ensure that the prevention of cyber-bullying and school yard bullying, the school needs to enforce cyber-bullying rules and set consequences for those who break those rules.

Bullying has become an epidemic that the educational system has been campaigning to cease through the establishment of school wide anti-bullying policies. In recent years the federal government has implemented the National Safe Schools Framework and the Civil Liability Act of 2002, to assist educators with diminishing schoolyard bullying (Campbell 64). Since the development and rise of technological resources, cyber-bullying has expanded the opportunity for the act of bullying to take place; bullying is no longer isolated face to face.
