My claim is right because, kids over the summer don’t study or do something to retain the knowledge they gained the previous year, so it ends up fading away. So year round school can lead to less knowledge lost for example from Year-round Education program guide, “the loss of retention of information that occurs during the three-month summer vacation is minimized by the shorter, more frequent vacations that characterize year-round calendars.” Which means that it can be more beneficial to them the outdated summer break.

We also shouldn’t have our phones taken away, it is our personal property after all. You wouldn’t want me to take away your phone for some stupid reason would you?? It also seems using computers or phones is much more environmentally friendly. My claim is probably right because I have personal experience with not being able to contact my mom or dad because they wouldn’t answer the school phones. My claim is also might be correct because from the site, “student-tutor.com/blog/cell-phones-in-school/” states, “The paperless initiative has helped organizations save time, save money, and save the planet all at once.” Another site states, “While it may be cheaper to use more toxic materials when building devices, electronics manufacturers are being urged to invest in eco-friendlier materials.” So it might be better to have electronics because we could be getting more eco-friendly electronics in the future and we are not wasting paper. https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2142809298 By Saibra]]> 2022-04-13 18:11:50 UTC https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2142809298 Sami Manwaring: Core classes should only be taught at school. When you think about it, colleges only look at your core class grades, it’s not like a college is going to reject you because you got an F in cooking. Although electives are good for character building skills, they still don’t matter when it comes to your future education. Why waste 4 hours of your day learning things that won’t affect you in your future life? Electives can also be good because they are a way to have a break from your core classes but why need a break if you could just be home 4 hours early instead? As you can see, although electives can be good for social skills, they won’t help you in your life beyond school and should not be taught at schools. https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2142809688 2022-04-13 18:12:08 UTC https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2142809688 Jennifer https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2142809787 Ipads should replace books because you can get more information from the internet that are not in the books. By replacing books with Ipads it can help students by staying organized and don’t have to worry if they have all the papers they need for that class instead they can have everything in their Ipad. Ipads can have information that textbooks might not have like things about the past or information on the Holocaust.

Music is a better way to relieve stress than noisy fidget toys many people use.

Or if something happened we would be able to get a lot more help for having phones in class. A lot of people think phones are the reason kids' grades are going down. But if they allowed us to have phones in class we would be able to use it for school work. And what would happen if there was a fire and we were stuck in the building with no phone. How would anyone know to help? On a website I read it said. “ If smartphones are allowed in school, students will have easy access to more information and therefore will be more participate during class discussion. Being able to search up facts in just a few clicks is one of the biggest advantages of using technology.” In 7th grade I forgot my Chromebook so I asked if I could use my phone and they said yes. This is a good story because if they said no I would have got behind .

Tablets have many abilities that textbooks don’t have. For example, Britannica tells us that, “Tablets contain many technological features that cannot be found in print textbooks. Print textbooks are heavy and cause injuries, while a tablet only weighs 1-2 pounds. Tablets help students better prepare for a world immersed in technology.” This clearly shows that tablets are an upgrade from using printed textbooks, and should be used in all schools.

Many people have to either walk or ride a bike or skateboard and that is a waste of time and energy. I believe that kids should get their license at 13 because I used to have an ATV and it was a big life saver. I used to live in New Mexico and all my friends were very spread out, so me and my dad got ATV’s and we would always drive around to fast foods, peoples houses, and for fun. The one drawback was gas money, gas was not cheap but if you really commit to the work then you’re all set. By giving kids their license at 13, they can do all these things with some hard work and commitment.

If a student wants to learn how to be a salesman or maybe an office worker. They can find more resources on the internet than a single book.

Then kids will be able to study for school subjects longer and have more time for homework. For Example:When I went to school for half of the week they tried to cram in as much material and work as they could.And then I did online school just like it was in person.Then I got Friday off so I could study and test myself over the materials.

So obviously, They should let school be 4 days long.

Most of us have put the time and effort into learning. Yes, kids that dont put the time and effort into the school work should have summer school which would make them have to be in school all year round. In the article it states that us students would not focus because we would not have the time to rewind and have fun because we have been in school. “Some childhood development experts believe that particularly when it comes to younger students, time off in the summer months is a vital component of healthy development. The argument follows that kids are not designed to spend so much of their time inside classroom walls and that the warmer, pleasant weather of the summer provides a perfect opportunity to get outside and experience childhood."

Not even school. Cell phones could cause a distraction to you and your classmates. Phones could also make it hard for you to learn in your classroom because when you are listening to music or on Snapchat you aren’t paying attention to the teacher. Which is very disrespectful.It says at Middleborough Educational Television.com “While Cell phones are in your hands all day, notifications will constantly go off. You’re forced to look without even realizing. Students get distracted all throughout the day without even noticing they are.

So if we take it slow with school and there is only four days then the teachers have more time over the weekends to plan and we get more time to clear their heads.

It would also help the teachers. This gives the students an extra day on the weekend. The teachers get an extra day of grading. I feel like 4 day school would be helpful because kids could strengthen their relationship and help getting work done. According to 4-Day School Weeks: New Research Examines the Benefits … it says, "The four-day week is enormously popular among parents and students, the new research finds. It typically saves districts a small—but not intangible—amount of cash. And on their day out of school, students are typically working, doing errands, or spending time with family, not running wild." This explains why it is helpful for students to have a 4 day weekend and not have that much stress. https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2143012440 2022-04-13 21:27:29 UTC https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2143012440 Emma Kelly https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2143013358 We shouldn’t be expected to use the restroom during passing because we don’t have enough time during passing. I have seen teachers before say that students should have used the restroom during passing, but we don’t get enough time during passing. Here at Taylorview we are allowed four minutes during passing to leave class and go to our next class. What happens when students have to go to a different class on the other side of the school? Do they deal with the fact that they might possibly be marked late because they were doing what the teacher told them to do?

School should be a safe place where kids can be free of any dangerous out of school things. Yet, there are still weapons and drugs in schools every day. And one place where those dangerous things can be stored, is in lockers. So more locker searches should be done to ensure that schools are safe. Another thing proving that locker checks should be done on a regular basis is the fact that it is an effective tool to find contraband quickly. I know people that have brought Marijuana and hidden it in a pencil box that was inside of their locker. As soon as the school checked the locker of that particular student, they found and confiscated the drug. They found the same drug in the friends lockers as well. Once again proving that locker searches can be beneficial to finding unsafe things on school grounds.

There are a lot of bad things that have been in people’s lockers. Vapes, for example, are very bad and if you can check the lockers it might stop people from bringing them to school. Also, if you don’t have anything to hide, you should not care about your locker getting checked. But, if they don’t find anything they should put everything back where it was before. Clearly, searching lockers would help not just people individually, but the schools as a whole.

My claim is right because you see it in the day to day world. Such as things like food when you are not forced to eat healthy food people don't mind eating but when you are forced they do not like it as much. You see children hate broccoli just because parents forced children to eat green food, but if they are not forced they would not mind at least trying it. That is what it is like with phones in school.

I also feel that the people that are responsible and don't get on them during class shouldn't have to punish because of one irresponsible kid.

This way the students will have more rest and will be able to have more time for themselves, it will put less pressure on them. Multiple students agree that they should have Fridays off. Especially since the majority of schools have late start Fridays. Therefore there isn't any use in going to school Fridays. Having no school on Fridays will give students more time for themselves and let them go at their own pace to do school work. Another reason why students shouldn't have school Fridays is because at the start of the pandemic, student didn't have school on Fridays. Instead, students had an online learning day. This made it so they could do the work at their own pace without being stressed. Many people agree that working on a tight schedule on Fridays can be stressful. You feel as if you have less time and you have to rush to finish your work.

In the real world men and women have to work together and communicate. Co-ed schools allow for all their students to interact and work together. For example, The article “Co-ed versus single-sex schools: 'It's about more than academic outcomes'” states,“The interaction between boys and girls isolates some of the less desirable aspects of both.” This quote supports the claim because it makes it clear that interactions between boys and girls are prominent in Co-ed schools.

With the privilege given to us we are able to act how we are treated and be trusted and prepared for our world outside of school. Because of a couple people's mistakes, not everybody should be punished. Consequences can stand for the people causing the issue. Last year while we were in school, we were able to have our phones if we stayed off of them and didn't cause distraction. If there was a distraction, that person could be individually punished, but until there is a school wide issue or there is a vote where people get a say in what happens, we should be left with this privilege. We could also have an emergency like a fire and none of us would get our phones back and some people can not afford to just get more expensive things like that because we were not trusted.

For example when I play games in my free time it makes my mood and emotional state happier and makes me calmer. If all kids with mental problems such as ADD, Anxiety, and Depression could be calm and happier it would make them do better in school. Another example is that it is scientifically proven that happier kids do better in school. In this excerpt from futures.edu, It says, “Happier students receive better grades in the future. And those who got better grades saw their happiness increase…” This proves that kids could have better grades in school. One final reason is I think that kids should be allowed to take personal laptops to school is because some families can't afford a replacement Chromebook in case it gets broken.

While this may seem like an easy thing to do, and therefore leads many to assume that it’s fair to pay teachers whatever they are being produced at the moment, there is more to a teacher’s job than what meets the eye.”. This is great at showing how teachers are really good at not just teaching at great levels but they are fantastic with trying to work with their kids. It also says, “Teaching is such a stressful job that about half of all teachers quit their jobs within five years… classes are too full, the work-hours are too long, there is a massive load of extra-curricular work, and of course, the pay is too little. Teaching is the fourth most stressful job in America, which may not sound very bad until one hears that the people with the top three most stressful jobs are police officers, military personnel, and working parents.”. Teachers have a lot on their shoulders and more making it clear that they should be able to get better pay because it all goes back to them and what they do. ]]> 2022-04-14 21:21:16 UTC https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2144363120 Hallie Hunter https://padlet.com/shauemma/1ju9q4ep85jhc88x/wish/2144365432 If you have your phone in class and you are on it then you aren’t paying attention to instructions or directions and you are getting yourself easily distracted by your phone. If you are on your phone during class then you don’t know what is happening or what you are supposed to be doing. A lot of the time people have their air pods in and are listening to music and the teacher is explaining and giving you directions and then they ask, “So what are we supposed to be doing?” It is really frustrating for the teacher and the student to repeat it when they weren’t listening to the instructions. I have seen this happen so many times this school year. If you have your phone and you aren’t on it, you are still distracted by it and want to get on it.

As you can see, a lot of students are on their phones and get easily distracted when they have their phones in class.
