Recommended: Stress on student life

Tartys are really getting old and no one truly knows how to get rid of tarts but if we were given extra time to do the things we need to do we could get less tarts and more learning time in class. I read an article called newsminer, it states that the most high school students stress over the five minute passing time because they need to ether go to the bathroom or locker and they have to travel in a large school. And the article is based on a large school. But they wouldn't stress if they had a extra two minutes to get to class. Sometime when a kid walks in late it can disrupt the class. In the seven minutes we are given we can get other stuff done like use the bathroom, go to the locker, and get to class on time. When some one need to

  • Pop-Tarts

    658 Words  | 2 Pages

    I can remember rare occasions as a child when I would wake up for school and there would be pancakes, eggs and bacon on the table and orange juice or Sunny Delight to drink. These exciting occasions, however, were just that: rare. Most days I would bound down the stairs to the toaster loaded with Pop-Tarts. I would usually be disappointed that I couldn't devour a wholesome breakfast, but I later came to understand the convenience of the Pop-Tart. My parents could put pastries in the toaster and continue to get ready for their day without having to worry about too much clean-up. It was during these early days of my education that I really found a love for the sugary, fruit-filled pastries.

  • Twinkies

    857 Words  | 2 Pages

    Traditionally, Twinkies are usually thought of as cream-filled yellow sponge cakes. To Chinese Americans, a different image is conjured. When Chinese Americans integrate with the American culture so much that their Chinese culture is much less apparent, they are known as “Twinkies”: yellow on the outside and white on the inside. In Amy Tan’s essay “Mother Tongue” and Elizabeth Wong’s essay “The Struggle to be an All-American Girl”, both girls are Chinese American trying to fit in with the American society while their Chinese mother’s are very traditional at home. Tan and Wong are trying to please their image in America and their mothers at the same time. While these essays are similar because they focus on the native languages used in America and the struggles of being a Chinese American in America, they differ in both their attitudes toward their mothers and personal reflections of being Chinese American.

  • Start School Start Later Case Study

    909 Words  | 2 Pages

    It is reported that 2/3 of students get less than seven hours of sleep, which is more than an hour under the minimal suggested sleep time (Mckibben, Sarah G. "Wake Up Calls (Fast Facts)." Start School Later. School Start Later, 2012. Web. 28 Mar. 2015). Without the proper sleep, students will be falling asleep in class. One third of students fall asleep during school from lack of concentrated sleep. “The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that middle and high schools start class no earlier than 8:30 a.m. to allow students to get healthy sleep” (Mckibben, Sarah G. "Wake Up Calls (Fast Facts)." Start School Later. School Start Later, 2012. Web. 28 Mar. 2015). With only fifteen percent of all public high schools starting after 8:30 a.m. that means that 85 percent of teens are not getting the standard amount of healthy sleep. Studies show that sleep deprived students are more likely to be involved in violent crimes than those who get a good night’s sleep. By simply pushing school start times back a half an hour or so, it would greatly benefit both the students and the society surrounding the individuals because of reduced crime

  • Persuasive Essay: Why School Should Start School Start?

    1263 Words  | 3 Pages

    If school starts two hours later and ends two hours later suddenly students lose two hours of valuable study time. Therefore, you may think that they can just redeem these two hours lost in the morning but sadly most students will not wake up early if it is not mandatory. The whole purpose of delaying school start time is because teenagers have been proven to work better after noon and do not receive enough sleep. It is believed that starting school later will ensure that students receive a long night 's sleep and will increase work efficiency. However by delaying school start time they force students to wake up earlier anyways to complete studying when they are not at their best or they will be too tired to wake up early to study so they will stay up late studying
