A year-round, students have been doing their homework. When summer is approaching, teachers began to think of what type of homework/project to assign to the students. When assigning those homework’s, teachers should think about the major question: What’s the point of a break in the school year when homework is assigned? Like Inshan Alli from the Junior Scholastic article, I believe that kids’ need time to relax, play and spend time with their families. During the school year, students don’t have time to spend with their families or relax, because they have tons of homework in their face.
They will be bused to and from school and their activities will be limited. When the weekends roll around they will be forced to do school work to make up the time they have missed from school, so ultimately it will be school 7 days a week. Many students will realize that this is not the life in which they want to walk, that life is full of choices and some children do know how to make positive
Children are hindered by these kinds of schools, teachers and peers lay a big role in the children’s lives. Some teachers are there for the income it will bring into their house hold and not the well-being of the child and students are pressued by their peers into thinking that education is lame and for losers. In most cases this is what children of low income go through but not all. Many may not realize that the surroundings of children may sometimes affect their future. Being raised in a low income area surrounded by people living the same lifestyle as you as if struggling is the norm of society.
Because they have their own business in school or after-school, they reject to stop their extracurricular instead to do more homework. So how to influence them to change their mind? In other word, how to let their performance same as the “A” students. Probably a lot of parents would say “No!”. Of course they can, the “C” students have same ability as the “A” students.
Cons Cons of Year Round School There are some very strong reasons for not implementing a year round school schedule. These include, but are not limited, to: * Families with different children on different tracks have a difficult time. * With families that have multiple children in school, they will sometimes find it difficult to make plans for before or after school or to schedule family vacations. * School clubs like band, sports, theatre and cheerleading, have difficult time practicing with frequent breaks. * Teachers that coach these activities find that just because they are on vacation doesn’t mean the activity stops.
Social: Anti-social behaviour- If parents show anti-social behaviour it may impact on the child being put into care Addictions- If children live with addicted adults they may be under a lot of stress and experience poverty. This may cause their attendance at school to drop which will impact on their achievements. Bereavement and loss- This can impact on the child's emotional and physical health as they may not know how to respond to this. Adults can also find it difficult to care for the child if they loose a family member which could result in the child going into care. Economic: Health Status- if a child has a condition, their education and home life can be affected as they may not be able to attend school as much as other children.
Erik Corrigan Politics & Multiculturalism A. The title of this work is Beyond the Knapsack by Peggy McIntosh. The title in this article is helpful because it explains that kids in class just go through the motion but this article explains how she tries to get more students involved rather them just not raise there hand and not participate. B. The topic and issues of this article are that kids in school are not participating in class as much as they should and then they aren’t learning the material they are supposed to.
Should colleges provide on-site daycare facilities for their students? Many people who go to college find it very difficult to get good day care service for their children. Many students have one to three small children who are below the public school age and must have constant care. I find to assist students with childcare issues; colleges should provide on-site daycare facilities for their students. If colleges provide on-site daycare facilities for their students it will allow them to concentrate fully on their work, reduce the number of students missing class or absenteeism, and retention rates will increase or the dropout rate will reduce.
For example, Dyslexia (a condition where the brain has difficulty interpreting information) in children is often identified by the parents. However, parents that are unaware or poorly educated may not notice any problems, meaning their child will not receive the crucial help and support they need to achieve. When children struggle in learning to read, write and spell they will soon fall behind at school and other areas of their development will begin to suffer. For example, a child not diagnosed will frequently become frustrated with trying and give up. Then in an attempt to disguise the problem they are more likely to misbehave and disrupt the class.
It can affect the child in many ways as they can become nervous and anxious resulting in them becoming withdrawn and have a lack of confidence at the thought of a new school, they may be leaving close friendship groups making them upset and feeling alone. Most children will experience a new baby in the family. Younger children may find this difficult as they will still be used to having all of the attention and not understand why the family set up has changed, this could lead them to reverting back to baby ways themselves, have tantrums, be unkind to the new baby or become clingy. An older child may feel left out and become withdrawn and feel in the way, which could result in them not feeling a part of the new family. They may endure sleepless nights and loose sleep making them tired and unable to concentrate when at school.
