Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a twin at school with you each day?

Students at Day Creek Intermediate surround us everywhere we go. Did you know that several of them are twins? It would seem that twins should look alike and have the same personalities and be pleased to be at the same school together. But are they?

Some twins seem to like being at the same school for a variety of reasons. However, other pairs have different opinions.

“We enjoy being at the same school together because we have the same homework assignments,” said Daria S.  “If one of us has a problem we can talk to each other.”

“It’s easier for our parents because of the homework assignments.  It’s also easier because we could help each other to get the assignments done more quickly,” said Kennedi and Kahlei S.

Some twins don’t like being at the same school together and would choose to go to different schools if they had the choice.

“We don’t like being at the same school together because we don’t have the same friends, and at our birthday parties we like to invite our friends,”  said Alexis and Faith G. “When we invite our friends, we have certain limits [about how many we can bring].  Even though it’s hard to have the same friends, we agree on people that are both of our friends,”

“Some people say that we look the same, when we know we are different. We have different personalities, we react different ways to things, and we have different friends,” said Adia and Ember G.  
Twins have a variety of unique opinions about sharing the same campus, but as they stopped to think about it, most acknowledge that they wouldn’t want to be separated if given the choice.
