The readworks article “ time to think” explains the debate, students should be in school longer. On the other had the side that believes that school days should stay the same saids that longer days will not be beneficial to the students. In the article It states that there are advantages and disadvantages of changing schools hours. In both sides they do have some similarities.
Introduction In the article Time To Think from the website Readworks it talks about the argument about, how long the school day should be. Some schools have been arguing weather they should make the school day longer, and or keep it the same. Some are stating in regular school days teachers don’t get enough teaching. However, others are stating that the the long days will get in the way of after school plans or family time.
Making school start later will allow kids to get more sleep, students wouldn’t have to rush at night when doing work and it could possibly be safer for kids and more better for parents. I think almost all students would agree that school should start
Sleep deprivation is a very big problem in schools. Some even call it an epidemic. This problem is usually blamed on early start times. Students believe that the first bell should be moved back so they can get some more sleep. However, this may not be the only reason.
School should not be year round. Kids need a break from learning stuff in school. If we don’t have school year round families and kids could do more fun things because kids wouldn’t be stuck in school for seven hours of their day five days a week. Kids need a break from all the school work because we get too much work. Although school year round could be good for some kids.
Say that you are still laying in bed sitting on your phone checking Instagram or Twitter and you look at the clock and see that it is 5:30am, but you’re still dreading that you have to go to school today. Think of it this way, you went to bed at 11pm, but you didn’t do your homework. Now you have all the time in the word because school starts at 9am rather then 7am in the morning. In the articles, “How school start times affect high school athletics.” (Putterman), “Why are parents afraid of later school start time.”
According to Public School Review “86% of public schools still operate on a traditional schedule,” (Year Round vs. traditional schedule public schools 1). Meanwhile, 14% of schools in the U.S are operating on a year round schedule. Students shouldn’t have year round school because schools would have to pay more money, tourism and other industries count on summer profits, and parents are burdened with students lengthy schedule. To begin, many students are weighed down with the stress of school,therefore, schools should stick to having a summer break. Students shouldn’t have year round school because it would add costs to schools.
The kids could be so bored out their mind knowing that the other kids at a regular school are having more fun than they are. So should we have year round school? I disagree 100%, all the way. We should have summers that are spent with friends and family. Not spent stuck in a class
In an attempted to improve test score schools all over the country have been extending school days. In responds to the extended school days there have been many debates on its doing more harm than good. I feel that extended schools days will have negative effect on students. Although I believe that extending schools day will more of a negative effect on students I realize that some people feel differently.
If school districts implemented four-day school weeks, attendance and attitudes would be better, the school would be conserving energy, and families would be saving money. If one asked a high school student if they
Should Schools Keep Summer Break? I believe that schools should keep summer break for their kids. There are many ways, having a summer break contributes to schools and the community. It is an American tradition to get out of school for the hot summer months.
Today we are going to talk about whether or not the school day should start later. When you don’t have enough energy for school, you don’t do well. No one necessarily said that it was the student’s fault. Many elementary school students are forced to get up at 5:00 in the morning to get ready! School just starts far too early.
I think there should be four day school weeks because students most likely want more free time out of school. The school days will end at 4:00 or maybe 4:30 pm because regular school days wouldn’t be enough learning time. This way we could have longer class periods and it’ll help because you’ll get the help you need and work will be handed in on time. Every student has missing work, longer school days help you get some of it all in and grades will be up. Plus, maybe students could do a little work on the day that they won’t have school.
Have you ever wonder even as a parent “should schools be shorter”? Well if you do your not the only one. Lots of people including parents and students are getting involved with the question should schools be shorter. Many people agree that schools should cut down the hours and days the students have to go. On the other hand many disagree and argue and say that students should go for the requirement the school 's hours are.
My claim is that we should have an 8 hour school day because if we do we'll have less homework and get to spend time with friends we only see at school. I found this information on a website called “Scholastic.com”. This website consists of articles, they survey members of the staff and get their opinions on things. A longer school day will also enable kids able to do extracurricular activities that they don’t do, for example, theater.
