Students Shouldn't Have HWK
I definitely think that homework it's unnecessary, because the things that we do in class, then we have to do them at home. I strongly think that homework it's only to have something to do at home so to not get bored.
Of course, I really agree, that there are some disadvantages if you don't have homework. Some of them would be that without it, we can't practice for the exams. This implies that we have to study with no practice. I truly think that also, people can get lazier. If you aren't used to work, if you had homework, you wouldn't wanted to do it.
As far as I'm concerned, if students wouldn't have homework I'll be very happy about that. And of course, I think that also many students.

Should students have Homework
Against having homework, I have to say that if students had less homework, they would never be stressed, as far as I'm concerned almost all the private schools send a lot of homework to the children so those students could be uncomfortable with the school.
On the other hand we all know that may be if students hadn't HWK they wouldn't practise out of the school. I strongly think that homework makes people not to forget what they've learned at school.
In conclusion, I feel that homework should to be completly optative for making children feel comfortable with his/her school and having more free time at home.

Students sholuldn't have homework
As always, there are advantages and disadvantages about doing homework. The advantages are that homework help us to revise and not to forget the lessons that we've done, and helps the teachers to get faster their books.The disadvantages are that the homework is a very tiring thing and that you know that if you don't do the exercises, you will have a problem. Another disadvantage is that homework changes our plans. When you arrive home after seven hours of having class, you shouldn't have anymore tasks.
In my opinion, hometasks are good for revising, but with ten minutes it's enough.
This is my opinion and,of course, I can be wrong

Opinion essay
In this text you will see, the advantages and disadvantages of having homework. In my opinion, homework it’s boring, but it helps you to study for the exam.
I truly think that there are a lot of advantages, for example: you can practise a little bit every day, having homework, so you don’t need studying everything the day before the exam. In my opinion, doing homework is an easy way of practicing grammar and vocabulary.
As well as I’m concerned there are also disadvantages. Students sometimes feel bored doing homework. After the classes we are tired, so we prefer playing PS3 to studying again. I think that teachers give us so much homework during the week.
In conclusion teachers, have to give us homework. But I think It would be more comfortable for us, the possibility of waiting until the weekend to do it.
Opinion Essay
sport to have a little bit of activitY after so many hours at school.
Opinion essay homework
In many schools all over the world teachers send tones of homework to the students.
Is homework bad? Is it good? Does it really help ?
If you ask a teacher she/ he would probably say that it is really helpful for her/ his students. The reasons are that during the school time there is not enough time to do exercises individually and that it helps to reinforce learning. They have the idea that more homework makes better students. However, pupils don’t think the same way as teachers do. In my opinion homework can be good and bad.
On the one hand, after a long day at school, we are often too tired to make more effort at the end of the day. I strongly believe that teachers don’t send us the tasks to torture us. I just want to think that it’s good for us . The problem comes when we get batteries of work because we haven’t behaved properly at school; in this case we don’t have enough time to finish it and we have to do it fast and in a bad way and the results are always awful.
On the other hand, I truly think a good home work could consist in reading a book, doing some painting, surfing the internet looking up for information, watching a film in a foreign language As far as I’m concerned homework has to be individualized; some students need more to practice the lessons given at school in order to be successful in the exams and some other students do not need to be all day long studying .
We, students, have a busy life. We go to school, study for exams, sometimes we do extracurricular activities, and teachers send us homework. Doing homework has positive and negative things.
On the one hand, doing homework helps us practicing the different things we’ve learnt in the lesson. It also helps us somitimes with the spelling.
On the other hand, doing homework makes us to waste a lot of time when we have exams and when we want to relax. But the most important thing is that I strongly believe that teachers put us lots of homework, without caring about if we have exams, if we do extracurricular activities, or if on that day we have to go to somewhere, and we can’t do it.
As far as I'm concerned, people usually do the homework. However, I think that if one person doesn’t do his/her homework, the teacher would have to consider if that person didn’t want to do it, or if he or she couldn’t do it.
Opinion Essay
We know that doing homework is very boring but, I personally think that homework has positive and negative things.
On the one hand, homework is positive because, with it you can study for exams and it helps you to have more vocabulary.
On the other hand, home work is negative because, teachers sometimes send us a lot of homework and nobody want to do it. I truly think that if they send us a little bit less of it, all the people we’ll do it.
In conclusion, if teachers can send us the homework in different days, but not exceed, more people will do it.
Opinion Essay
Homework, what a beautiful word no? NO! That is worse than a swearword, however, all the people know what it is, but the children are the most concerned people about it. Nevertheless, like everything, that has good and bad things, and that is what I'm going to write about. Students shouldn't have homework.
In one hand homework is a posibility to repass the lessons that we have done in the previously class. Also is a chance to be more responsible, do the homework all the days and don't forget it. In the other hand as far as I'm concerned, you have to carry a lot of books to do something that you already know it, and when the children arrive to his/her houses spend a lot of time doing them, and they have to have more free time to do some hobby or something like that because sometimes is something useless.
In conclusion, children can have homework but only if the teachears allow them time to do it, because when . But if in a near future the teachears won't put to the children homework, nobody nobody will complain.
Opinion essay:
OPINION ESSAY
Well, now I'm going to talk about "homework". First of all, I think any/almost any student likes homework. In fact, homework has some positive and negative things.
In this hand, I think homework makes students learn more because they have to write and do truly complicated exercises and making us to do exercise in the wrist. There are also some exercises that are fun.
On the other hand, doing homework makes students waste ink every time they write. Homework doesn't let us have free time to do anything we want to, as far as I'm concered, homework is a waste of time!
In conclusion, I think that It's good for us to do homework but not a lot, then we havn't got time to play or to do things. So, for all teachers that are reading this, don't give students lots of homework!!!
An Opinion Essay

OPINION ESSAY
Against wearing uniforms, I have to say that going with your own clothes makes you tell other people how you are, as far as I'm concedered almost all the uniforms are truly uncomfortable and expensive.
On the other hand we all know that there are people with more or less money and I strongly think that the uniform makes that people look like the others. Also the uniform can be washed more or less times and nobody can know it unless it smells bad.
In conclusion, I feel that uniform should to be completly optative for making children feel comfortable with the clothes that he/she has chosen.
OPINION ESSAY
Homework is a word that we all, child’s, are listening all the days of our lives, because all the teachers want that we learn a lot. But in fact homework haves advantages and disadvantages.
In one hand homework leave us the opportunity to learn a lot of things and to practice a lot of stuff. Homework also prepare us for be something in the future like a doctor etc...
In the other hand homework don't let us the opportunity to have fun and I personally think that we all, are doing homework an studying eight hours a day in the school, and I truly thing that this is in off because we need time to relax ore do everything we want.
In conclusion I think that we have to do homework but in little quantities, and sometimes, not all the days.

Monday, November 22, 2010
Inline skating
It developed in 1980, and the people liked it because, you could go very fast just going as walking.
Before you start going inline skating, you should have lessons. The best place to practice could be on grass, because if you fell down, you won’t hurt your legs or arms.
As you practice, you’ll keep fitter, so every time you will skate for longer.
The most important thing is that you have ever to wear a crash helmet and knee and elbow pads, because if you fell to the floor, you won’t hurt any part of your body.
So, if you like going fast to everywhere, and just only going as walking, you have to practice inline skating.
Inline skating
When you start doing inline skating you must wear helmet: knee, head and elbow protection. We don’t now when this sport start, but people think that inline skating comes from Paris.
The best place to practise this sport, is going to a smooth road, with out any stone in the floor… One possibility is going to the park, for me it is the best place to practice it, nevertheless you can go to a specific club of inline skating to enjoy it.
You need a pair of skates and the helmet, they aren’t so expensive. Inline skating isn’t a very expensive sport, so that a lot of people can practice it. This sport is similar to skateboarding, but you must keep your balance in both.
Practising inline skating in summer and spring is more comfortable, because, the good weather helps to enjoy it.
So please, try it. It’s very funny!!! I’m sure that you’d like it.

Inline skating is an exiting sport because, is like ice-skating but in the ground and not in ice.
I like going inline skating because I feel good. I’ve never known that inline skating developed in 1980 because, it’s a very new sport and I get surprised when I know it.
To start doing inline skating is on the grass, because is more difficult to move your legs and if you fall down you hurt lower than in cement. You will have lessons of how going with it. You must skate for more time to practice more.
When you have finish practicing, you can try to go to a hill or get around the town and show to all, or to yourself, how good you are. If you go to the seafront and then you can go the entire fast you want.
To do inline skating you only have to wear a crash helmet, knee and elbow pads and of course the skates. Isn’t very expensive so if you are going to do this sport put it on.
If you like velocity and skates, inline skating is the sport that you must do.

Hi, I’m Maria from SIL
You might find it difficult getting used to our school but you mustn’t worry about coming to
We have to start school quite early but not as early as my brother; he has to start at eight o’clock.
You don’t have to do any homework but you have to come to all the classes. You may want to have a look at the timetable which is attached.
You aren’t allowed to use your mobile phone in class, it must be turned off.
I usually have lunch there but you don’t have to if you don’t want to and you could bring something to eat from home. If I were you I would choose not to go because the food is horrible in the school canteen.
If you get bullied you shouldn’t start a fight, you must tell the teachers and they will try to solve the problem. Anyway, people are quite kind and friendly.
I’m looking forward seeing and meeting you.
I hope you will like my school.
See you soon.
