Persuasive Writing
This term our class has been reading a story called Posted.
Each week we have to complete an activity about the story Posted.
Last week we had to do persuasive writing about should cellphones be banned.
Should cellphones be banned in schools?
There was once a time where phones hadn't existed.
Now they do, you see them everywhere. In someone's hand, pocket or even
in their bag. Before we had this advanced technology, we had flip phones.
Then, those were replaced with attractive favored phones. Where you actually
touch the screen, I mean back then we had buttons on phones.
Okay okay, I'll get to the main topic. Should phones be banned in schools?
Tweens and teens have phones now. It could possibly change them in a way
where they would use their phones 24/7.
Firstly, I disagree with this because phones can help you in a way. I
recommend the age of 12, for a child to start bringing a device to school.
Imagine this: The bell had just rung, students are leaving. You notice that no
one has come to pick you up. Your phone! Your phone is in your bag.
You take it out and decide to ring your parents. You've informed them that you
can now be picked up. A phone can help you contact someone. You could
possibly tell them about your day or just have a normal conversation.
Furthermore, phones can give a child or teenager a full responsibility for the
phone. It can help them look after their own things as they are growing older
each year. But, it may take over them and could get the feeling of using their
phone all the time. Although, you can tell them when to stop using their phone
or give them a time limit on how long they can use a phone. So, they will get
used to the time limit and will know for themselves on when to stop.
Finally, a phone can give facts about the day. An example is, you can set a
calendar and will tell you about the events coming up for the day. It can help
you from forgetting things like a test or an activity that may happen in the day.
A phone can give you facts about the recent news. It might probably tell you
about the weather and how cold or hot it might be. Phones can actually help
you wake up in the morning by setting the alarm, the ringing will mainly wake
you up so you can start getting ready for the day. Most of us would probably
sleep through it, but it's worth a try.
In conclusion, I feel that phones shall not be banned from schools because
they are what we need to help us throughout the day. A calendar to remind
you, an alarm to wake you, a responsibility to help you and lastly a way to
contact people.
