On The Evenings
For
hundreds of years, education has been a part of our lives. To help us learn
more and prepare us when we reach our adult years. School starts by us having
to wake up at early in the morning to do all are daily things then go to school,
but once you reached your 1st class you can’t concentrate because on
how tired you are. Personally for me I hate waking up early to do anything. So
isn’t it easier to just go to school in the evenings? Just think about it for a
moment, and you won’t regret it! We could have more hours to sleep, more hours
to do work and help out with our family and also advance study on our lessons.
And it would also benefit teachers, they would have more time to relax, more
time to prepare for class, and do anything they want. I mean if you ask me it
would be a great change for all learners and workers or teachers to have class
in the afternoons.
My first reason why school should take
place in evenings is because students who wake up early in the morning may
experience bad mood, and may suffer lack of sleep. According to NETDOCTOR ‘’ Depression, Stress, and the changing seasons can all lead to a negative
mindset in the morning, ’’ This is
related to the topic because students might get depression due to lack of sleep
or stress in the morning. If we changed the time schedule for the school to be
late afternoon or at least 12pm students might not have any more bad moods and
they can also fix they’re sleep schedule, and also according to the American
Academy Of Pediatrics’’ they have recommended that middle and high schools start at 8:30 a.m. or later to give students the opportunity to get the amount of
sleep they need, but most American adolescents start school too early’’ My second reason is to prevent risks (mostly for
teens). Teens that can drive can prevent car crashes this is also because of
lack of sleep but I think this is a separate reason from the first one. When
teens go driving they can be distracted easily by their gadgets or tiredness
which can cause them to get into crashes. Actually the AAA says that drowsiness
contributes to more than 100k crashes per year. Teens can prevent this by
having a right sleeping schedule or the school should start class later. My 3rd
reason is students and teachers would be more coherent or participate more in
class. It’s because students would have more time to prepare themselves, (dress
up, eat, pre-study, get energetic
or fully wake up) for class and same goes for
teachers. They can prepare their brain to go through the obstacles or class
quizzes, exam’s, or questions asked by the teachers. For teachers, they can
prepare themselves to teach the students and answer the questions students might
ask the teacher. My 4th reason is improving our physical health. Early
school start times do not just affect mental ability and mood. They also have
an impact on physical health. Sleep deprivation increases the risk for
diabetes, obesity and high blood pressure. Researchers believe that a lack of
sleep alters hormone levels and puts additional stress on the body. Early
school start times may contribute to diabetes and obesity in several ways. They
would eat more than sleep; tired students may reach for foods high in sugar or
caffeine, hoping that they will get a temporary boost. This puts them at risk
for serious health problems. And lastly it gives a chance for kids or
students to eat breakfast. Since students have school in the morning they have
to rush to catch online class or onsite class, which makes them skip breakfast.
And if you didn’t know breakfast is the most important meal in the day, because
it would be your energy till lunch or dinner. And if you didn’t eat before
school you wouldn’t have any brain power making you unable to answer the
questions your teacher wants you to answer. But if we have class in the
afternoon or evening we could eat our breakfast and not be in a rush, we can
decide what to eat if we want to eat a sugary snack or a healthy fruit. And reducing the prevalence of on-the-go eating options
can promote a healthier weight and better personal nutrition, which further
increases the chances of a positive individual learning experience.
What do you think now? Should we still have school in the
morning or evening? Well I hope my cases (mood swings, lack of sleep, physical
health, eating breakfast) would make you change your mind that school should
take place in the afternoons.
