contrary, the summer break is too long. UC’s summer break starts in early June and ends in late September. It is an advantage of quarter system since I can have more time to relax or take summer sessions, but is also a disadvantage. If I use a summer break to take summer session II that begins in early August and ends in early September, I will get bored in September because all semester-attending friends go back to their universities. I always hang out with friends and family during summer…
Should we have year-round school? Year-round school should be implemented in our school district. Three main reasons why I think there should be year round school is that, for one, it would help prevent long breaks that could potentially weaken students academically, and after the break, it would take a while to review. Secondly, the 9 month calendar we currently use was originally made based around when kids would go home and work on farms, but now, this isn’t a common practice. Lastly,…
Speech for Year-Round School Do students feel bored by the end of their 3 month long summer? As a student I feel like a kid that has no school skills when I come back from summer break. This is why teachers take longer on the first few units because kids have forgotten the skills they needed for the next level education. I think Year-Round school would be more beneficial because it would solve kid’s problems of forgetting skills they need for the next level of education. If Year-Round school…
The 1980 Heat Wave in the United States Disasters, as the word suggests, is a phenomenon that actually tends to spell a doom on the regular routine of an entire society and depending upon its size and effects it can even cause a change in the working process of an entire country. Basically, when something big happens that we cannot stop or cannot change is known as a disaster. Every year, millions of people are affected by the natural disasters and man-made disasters (Georgian Med News, 2011).…
Summer is the most anticipated season of the year for many people especially those in cold countries. It’s like taking a break from the cold and freezy winter weather when trees, roofs and the ground are filled with snow. During summer, everyone gets excited for a beach holiday, an out of town travel with the entire family and friends. Relaxing near the beach, watching the sunrise and sunset, eating fresh tropical fruits and enjoying fun activities and tours. There are several ideal summer…
Stressed from homework and test, students need and deserve a long break from school. Summer officially starts June 21st, but depending on where they live some students usually get out before then. Lasting ninety four days, summer is the longest season we experience. Students are given an opportunity to relax and enjoy being a teenager away from school. Several people, including myself, have an opinion that summer is the best season out of the four we experience. Students get to enjoy the warm…
however could be different from student to student as some people see school as an escape from other issues such as problems at home. He used generalization here by suggesting all students detest school, which is not the case. Suggesting that end of summer is the end of stories and friends and loved ones is something that he uses in order try and explain that nothing ever stays the same. This can be seen either way as one might argue if they love you enough they will always stick around. Even…
breaks. With a balanced schedule, students will have better retention of material without having a long summer vacation. Students will also not fall behind and fail classes. By having occasional days off, students and teachers alike will not get burned out and lose motivation. Summer vacation hurts learning retention. Students can lose between one to three months of learning over the summer, squandering knowledge largely in reading and math computation (More). Wasting this fundamental…
scheduling problems, loss of summer activities, less social benefits, and negative effects on student motivation, we should stop opening year-round schools in Michigan. School educates us and prepares us for some jobs in the future, but does…
Summer… a word that brings a smile to every child’s face. It is time for certain school districts to think about changing the traditional school year and having a year-round school calendar. Three hundred years ago, schools were created with the thought that students needed to have the summer off with the busy farming season. The United States is no longer an agricultural society and needs to rethink the school year. The students today are competing with other countries and the children are not…
