Although kids should have one extra month of summer, some may argue that you should start school early so you can get extra smart. For example, when you get into collage, you will get straight A+. However, you can learn a lot of things in the nine months we have. Kids should have more summer! - Tilly
ReplyDeleteAlthough kids should have an extra month of summer, some may argue that they need to have school so they can learn (I said that with quotes by the way) more. For example, when I ask my mom why kids only have three months of freedom, she always says they need to have school. However, it's a free country and George Washington says everyone has the right to do what they want to do.
ReplyDeleteFrom the words of LIAM.
Kids should have a extra month of summer because first of all we still do homework.Second of all we have 9 months of school.Third of we don't need to have 9 months of school.Last reason why is because we don't get enough time to do everything we planned to do in the summer.That is why I think we should have a extra month of summer.Sarah
ReplyDeletekids should have more summer because They they might have a fun vacation planned but then you can't go because your sick and you have to do it later but then school start.kids should have more time to see new places like my friend Henry Wells has been to alot of cool and fun places.That's why kids should more summer.

ReplyDeleteAlthough I think Disney World is awesome, some may argue that the beach is better. For example,at the beach you can swim and relax under the sun. However Disney World has so much more to offer. Clearly Disney World is the better choice. Lizzie b.
ReplyDeleteAlthough kids should have an extra month of summer Teachers think that we have had enough summer already. For example, teachers think its bad for our egecation to have summer so long. However summer is a great way to get all our energy out before school starts so were not so chatie(but that does not work anyways.) That's why summer is better. Lizzie b p.s sorry about the other one i messed up.
DeleteAlthough kids should have an extra month of summer vacation, some may argue that kids should not have an extra month of summer vacation. For example, kids may forget how to x or how to write a complete sentence. However, kidds will not forget this because it is in a way locked in your brain so you won't forget. Also kids work so hard every day when they're in school so they should get the reward of not having school for an extra month. Kids should get an extra month of summer vacation.

DeleteAlthough kids should have an extra month of summer break. some may argue that kids these days don't get enough learning time. For example, we do need to learn more to get big brains. However, having an extra month means more summer homework yay woohoo (I'm being sarcastic.) I think kids should have longer breaks to have more time to finish summer homework -French
ReplyDeleteKids should have one more month of summer because you can relaks for one more month. You could go on a little vacation in your last month. You could just hang out for a little bit before school. However, some parents would say that they want their kids to start school as soon as it comes. Furthermore I think having one more month is not that stressful because when it is almost time for school you get all scared about how the year is going to go but is you had one more month then you would not have to worry about the school year for a whole month! Henry W.
ReplyDeleteKids should have a extra month of summer so we could really rest our brains and come back as DEVIL! students. It would be better because then you could have more time to beat your children with the belt. I think we should be able to because then you could also have more time to tame your dinosaurs to do tricks and adopt a pet alien and make it learn BIGBRAIN MATH. Us devil students should have a extra year of summer I mean a month. 8eN Fl3m1n9
ReplyDeleteAlthough some and I think that kids should have more summer before school. For example we already have homework over the summer it is just like school because we have to stay inside because we have so much homework. Furthermore at least kids should not have homework over the summer because that is just like when you get home from school and and you have got to do homework. However some people love the idea of coming back to school at the time that it is. And they do like homework over the summer because it keeps kids on track for the new year. But I think that we should come back to school one more month later.

Although I think kids should have an extra month of summer vacation, some may argue that we should start school earlier.For example,if we started school earlier we would learn lots more and advance to a higher level in school work.However,if we had an extra month of summer vacation kids and teachers would get to spend extra time with their family and I would have more days to celebrate my birthday instead of only having two.Kids should definitely have an extra month of summer vacation.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I think kids should have an extra month of summer vacation, some may argue that they need to go back to school. For example, they need to have work to do. Also, they can learn more. Furthermore, it would be way more fun to stay on vaction longer. Kids should have a extra month on summer break. JACK #10

ReplyDeleteEven though we should have one more month of summer. Some may argue we need more eduction. And be smart and learn. Also get better grades.I doun't Think so.
ReplyDeleteIf kids had a extra month of summer vacation, I would play play hockey, go to the beach, and go skiing. I would want to play hockey because it is my favorite sport. I would want to go skiing because I like going on black diamonds. I would like to go to the beach because I like playing football on the beach and going in the waves. I like hockey the most though. Henry S.
ReplyDeleteAlthough kids get 3 months of summer vacation I think we should have 1 extra month of summer, some may argue that kids do not learn anything new in those 3 months but I disagree. For example kids are on there phones and ipads alot and are going on vacations and playing with their friends all summer long and don't learn anything. However it is not bad to take a brain break and have fun more than just 3 months! So I think kids should be able to at least have 1 extra month.

DeleteAlthough I think kids should have an extra month of summer vacation, some may argue that kids should go back to school at the normal time. For example, some people may think kids forget things over the summer and need time to learn again. However, kids can have summer homework, and they need more time with their family. Also, kids want to have fun and spend time with friends and family. I think kids should have another month of summer vacation.

ReplyDeleteAlthough kids should have another month of freedom on summer break some may argue that. Getting back to school is better for you and helps your development and it will help them learn. but all kids want is time away from school. And people always want what they can't have. Chase
ReplyDeleteAlthough kids should have an extra month of summer some may argue some may argue that school is more inportanta but I dissagree marywindham
ReplyDeleteAlthough kids should have one more month of summer some may argue that we shouldn't and we should start school early. Also if we had one more month of school we could get a head start of what we are learning in the next grade. For example, our parents could let us know what we need to know for the next grade. However I predict we would be smarter when we got to school than on a regular basis. Furthermore extra summer would be great.

Kids should have a extra month of summer but some argue that kids should have one less month of summer. For example kids would have more learning time. However Kids would have more fun which is exsersize.
ReplyDeleteMiles
Although, kids should have a extra month of summer. Some argue that they should not. For example, if kids stay out of summer longer they can learn more. However, If kids got an extra week than they would stay focused better in school. I think kids should have an extra week of summer.

Although, kids should get on more month of freedom (vacation), some may argue kids don't need an extra month of freedom. For example, kids need to go back to school and learn. However, kids exercise during the summer because they swim. Kids should definitely get an extra month of freedom. That is why kids should get an extra month of summer.

Although, kids should have an extra month of summer vacation some may argue that they shouldn't. For example, they [People that think summer is good how it is] think you have to get right to school for better education. However half of the stuff you learn at school, you never gonna use when you're older. Furthermore, not that many people [Everybody] like school. I honestly just think school is a waste of time.

ReplyDeleteAlthough kids get three months of school, I think we should have one more month for the rest of our lives. Some may argue that kids should not get one extra month because they think three months is enough and kids don't learn any thing, but I disagree. Yes kids play, watch tv, play electronics, play with friends, but we still have summer homework, so techneckly kids do learn things over the summer. I think kids should have one extra month of summer.

Even though kids SHOULD get more summer, some may argue that they need less. If you're one of those people, you might say that kids will forget what they learned. You might think that they'll be stupid. And you probably think that kids will rot their brains by watching too much T.V. because it's summer. Well, without summer, kids would not have quality time with their family because of being at school/doing homework 24/7! And they would never, ever, ever, ever have time to have fun.
ReplyDeleteBRILEY
Although kids should have an extra month of summer vacation :).some may argue that they should not. kids can learn more in an extra month of learning!if you put together all the breaks they equal about a month!-wynn
ReplyDeleteAlthough, kids should get 1 extra month of summer vacation some parents may argue kids will not take their extra month seriously. For example they would probably say that we need to learn more even though we have to do everyday ixl and reading. However, kids go swimming and do homework and some have extra activets and extra learning and camp. Kids should definitely get an extra month of summer.
ReplyDeleteAlthough children should have an extra month of summer vacation. Some may argue that kids have enough vacation and do not learn very much over summer. I do not agree, we learn about a lot of things for example we could go to museums. There are a lot of museums in Nashville like the Frist or the Country Music Hall Of Fame. Also if you go on a vacation to a different state/continent you could learn about that place
