                Should Students Get Paid For                           Good Test Scores?

     Do you think that students should get paid for good test scores? Getting paid for good test scores will encourage you to study and try to get a good test score. This is because everyone wants money and they will work hard to try and get a good grade. Also, Brian Leonard earned $12,500 because 65 of his students passed the exam. Brian Leonard teaches A.P. calculas and statistics at Lake Hamilton Highschool in Arkansas. I think this is important because students need to be encouraged in some way.

      Students should get paid for good test scores because it'll encourage the students to actually study, try their best on it, and learn it. As a result of the getting a good grade you'll get money in return. That is only if you get and 80 or higher as a grade. Teachers may also earn money as a result of you getting a good grade on your quiz, test, exam, etc. so, that means that the good grades will benefit you and your teacher.

         So now you why kids should get paid for good tests scores. What do you think? I challenge you to make your decision. It is your time to decide. What side are you going to go on?

                   Should School be Year-Round?

     

        Should school be year round? Well, that's what Governor Chris Christie thinks. Currently the issue is whether or not school should be year round.School should not be year round because teachers and students will stressed out, students will tune out more, and you'll get tired from all of the learning. This is why I think that school should not be year round.

        School should not be year round because teachers and students will get stressed out. This is because you have to wake up early every weekday morning and that'll get you stressed out. Also, you'll get stressed out from wondering about what the students need to learn that day and what they need to accomplish that day. This is one reason why  school should not be year round.

         Another idea, school should not be year round is because students will tune out more because of the heat. As you know the Summer is extremely hot/warm. People can't pay attention when their shirts are sticking to their back or when there is sweat dripping down your sweaty forehead. Don't you agree? Also, when it is warm / hot out side you can't pay attention because your mind will be thinking about the beach and hanging out with friends and going to the mall, etc.
        Lastly, school shouldn't be year round because you'll get tired from all of the learning. You need a break from all of the learning. Also, all of the information goes in one ear and out the other ear. This is the third and last reason why school shouldn't be year round.
        What do you think? Do you agree or disagree? Well, school shouldn't be year round because teachers and students will stressed out, students will tune out more, and you'll get tired from all of the learning. What do you think?
      
          I challenge you to write an essay about which side you agree on and why. Now it is your time to decide. What is your decision.

                           Is It OK to Lie?

            Do you think it is okay to lie? If you make up one lie, it'll be hard to keep up with that lie. One small lie can lead up to more small lies and how will you keep track of that? Currently, the issue is whether lying is okay or not. Lying is not okay because you won;t be able to keep track of it, one small lie can lead up to many small lies or even one humongous lie, and friendships depend on honesty.
        It is not okay to lie because you won't be able to keep track of it. Say you said that your cousin is Justin Bieber. They probably won't believe you. I f you tell them that you are going on a trip to hang out with Justin Bieber they will not believe you. What if they show up to see if what you said was true or not? Will they discover the truth? Then your friendship will fall apart because the friendship will be based on lies.
        Another idea is that one small lie can lead to many small lie or even one big lie. This is because you have to keep supporting that lie that you told someone. To support that lie you need to make up another lie, another, another, and so on. If you think about it there is no stop to lying.  Also, being honest can make the world a better place.
        Lastly, friendships depends on honesty. Honesty is the opposite of lying, it's the truth. Do you really want to risk your friendship by lying? Say, for example, you tell your friend a lie because you don't know what to do, you might think that she is not going to find out. What if she does find out the truth? Will your friendship fail or will your friendship stay the way it already was? The bigger the lie the the more the damage to your friendhsip.
        

           In conclusion, lying is not okay. Lying is not okay because you won't be able to keep track of it, one small lie can lead up to many small lies or 1 humongous lie, and friendships depend on honesty. I feel this way because lying is not a "healthy" way to act in a realationship of any kind. A quote that someone once said about lying was "I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you anymore."

           I challenge you to find out more reasons why lying is not okay.
Why is lying not okay to teach to little children?

                   History of Fish

              Most people have fish as a household pet. There are 25,000 known species of fish. All of the fish is divided into 3 main groups. The 3 main groups are jawless, the cartilaginous, and the bony fish. Anyways, fish need a bowl or a tank full of clean and freshwater water. You need to feed the fish you have at least once or twice a day.

      I think that Fish is the mostly calm domesticated fish ever. This is important to readers because in case they are against getting a fish or two this might change your mind. Fish do not make any sounds at all,THE BEST THING EVER! Well, this is very important because you don't need to worry about the fish eating your homework, or going bathroom any where around the house so you don't have to potty train them. Another idea, is that when you go to school, or the mall, or a friends house, and etc. and no one else is home you don't have to worry about them ripping up the couch, eating the pillows,or scratching the walls.                                




      Now I challenge you to find out more about fish and how they interact with other fish. This is why fish are the most easiest household pets.
