They give us a lot of work during class that eventually turns into after school work. and the amount of projects is too much like we just recently finished e-portfolios you would expect the teachers to go easy on the projects.

Please better the system, and not changing a lot of things it’s 
tiring, and stop with the work over load it’s not doing anything for us it’s just giving us unnecessary stress. As teachers and parents you should know better.

I hope to see in semester 2 that the work that is given is less, we actually study rather than doing all assignments, the timetable changing, and I hope to see that the teachers are more understanding.
Thank you

This semester started with many assignments and I think teachers should consider we have other subjects that we already have so much to do. I think we do more assignments than studying the actual lesson. I’m hoping this semester they consider not putting portfolios and exams the same week because it was seriously very stressful. Also the break time is very short I don’t know why the lessons are for an hour but the break it very short I think we deserve longer breaks to help us function for the rest of the lessons.

The suitable time is 1:00, and yes, I've heard the statement 15 mins attendance at the start and end of the period. Teachers usually take only 5 mins for attendance, and for the last 15 mins, it's just extra work. This doesn't give me time to spend with my family nor myself. I have to dedicate the rest of the hours to school work, which brings me to the next point. We are getting overworked at school, which isn't something decent, especially in this pandemic; we already have obstacles to overcome. Work needs to be reduced, and this rule that only three homework is allowed isn't even used anymore. I've been more than exhausted in the last semester and this one too. Overworking us isn't the key to education. School timings need to be like last year, which was till 1. Keeping time short helped me do so much stuff in the best way and give myself and my family time. This issue has been bugging me for so long now. What I'm saying should be taken into action as soon as possible.]]> 2021-02-10 09:00:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mozaalkamda0/crkfb0q80po8lvvg/wish/1186316646 https://padlet.com/mozaalkamda0/crkfb0q80po8lvvg/wish/1187549552 a lot of the work we did as a class has to do with a lot of presentations and for example one class is giving us a research to do on top of the presentations which is a lot of work piling up and i think it would be good if the work isn’t due too soon that would give us time to work efficiently and not stress over how much work we have.

suggestion:
if school hours are reduced until 1:30 lets say I will have enough time for myself and maybe be a bit easier on us and give us at least a little less work to do everyday.

We would like more group work because we have fun working together and we share some ideas and work really hard, and give us less e-portfolios, IXL and achieve 3000 because it makes us really stressful and we need to rest. Lastly,  I hope you make the lesson time less than 1 hour because it becomes boring and sometimes I feel even the teachers get bored

we understand that you want to stick to the heritage and culture, but frankly women wearing pants has nothing to do with it, especially when teachers and other important figures get to wear them. we appreciate the “skort” thing you were trying to accomplish, but we all knew that wouldn’t work. so don’t make our lives harder and complicated because we don’t see the problem in wearing pants. it’s 2021 WE DONT NEED THAT MINDSET ANYMORE.]]> 2021-02-10 17:44:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mozaalkamda0/crkfb0q80po8lvvg/wish/1188748605
