Can I write an argument?

According to the government children should have homework after school. I am arguing that children should have homework after school.

It teaches children to work independently and work together. If a child does not work it is their own fault for example if all the children do their work they will get good grades and if they get good grades they will get good jobs but if children don’t work they won’t get good grades or good jobs.

Everyone knows that homework improves children’s thinking ability and yes they should have a break but they could do their homework a little bit everyday so that they do get a break and do their homework.

Homework makes children look after things and care for things. It’s a fact that if children don’t do their homework they won’t look after things and clearly if they don’t look after things when they go up to secondary school teachers will get annoyed that a child has either lost his homework or can’t find it.

Hundreds of people agree that when children grow up they can teach their little brothers or sisters or even their children! Loads of children don’t go to school and children who do go to school should be pleased that they go to school.

In summary hundreds of people don’t have good jobs. Do you really won’t your children to be one of them, surely everyone can see that we are trying to teach children not torture them so if you have read this please think about your children. Do you really want them them to be this way. Anyway it’s your choice not mine.

Can I write an argument

Many people believe that we should be given homework but more believe we shouldn’t. I’m also here to say we shouldn’t have homework. Read on to find out why………

Most teachers don’t take courses specifically on home work during teacher training. It is just horrendous that they give us home work but don’t know anything about it.

Ministers have scrapped guidelines setting out how much homework children should be set. There is a controversy about the value of homework with critics saying it is either ineffective or potentially harmful if the extra homework is so dull that children switch off. There is a comment in the new ofsted [inspection] frame work where they mention homework and a lot of teachers see that as if they must be setting homework all the time even if it is not necessary. A review of academic research has found the impact of homework on primary age children is inconclusive. This means there is no proof it is beneficial.

Children need time to relax not worry about homework.

Doing homework isn’t exercise-running and cycling is.


So in summery you can not argue with this it is proof and facts. Home work is just a piece of paper that distracts your child from exercise.

My Chocolate Town - Jack and Chloe (Year 2)

My chocolate town

My town is built of chocolate
From the shops to the houses
My house is solid chocolate
At the end of a white chocolate road.

I drive in a chocolate pudding
I swim in a gloopy chocolate lake
And when I’m feeling tired
I sleep on a chocolate flake.

My seats are chocolate cupcakes
The bridge is made from milky bars
The bricks are made from chocolate cake
And I drive a solid chocolate car.

My Chocolate Palace - Jack (Year 2)

My Chocolate Palace

My palace is built from chocolate
It is so tall it goes from the entrance to the tower
My bath is made from chocolate
And I use melted chocolate in my shower.

My throne is bright milky bar
I have mint-choc-chip flavoured flowers
My garden has mint flavoured grass
My mud is dark chocolate.

My electricity is runny chocolate
I have chocolate coins for money
When I’m tired I lay in my chocolate muffin bed.

I have a chocolate powered radio
My chocolate lime is made from milk chocolate
My flag has chocolate buttons on it
I have a servant made from twix and caramel.

I will put in my box - Lydia (Year 2)

I will put in my box

I will put in my box
My best buddy who never leaves me out
A family holiday to Canada
The first time I could ride my bike without stabilisers.

I will put in my box
A beautiful ice palace
A toffee tower
A Chinese cook to cook me yummy food.

My box is fashioned from
Ice and gold with chewing gum in the corner
And toffees on the lid
The hinges are the jaw joint of tiny kittens.
