The truth is that students don’t need free time because they come to school for learning. Another argument is that students get free time at morning tea, lunch and after school so they don’t need it during learning time.

To start with, I would like to define free time as leisure time for students. Typically, they play games on their computers and go on Youtube.

I belive that Fidget spinner should be not allowed in class because they stop people from learning and they won't listen to their teacher.

Although I have spoken about how fidget spinners can distract students, they do have a good side. My next opinion is that fidget spinners will help people calm down if they are angry.

School uniforms should be compulsory

In my opinion,I think that uniform doesn’t because more washing.

To start with,uniforms mean that it is just a set of clothes that have the school logo on it.

It is obvious that, most schools have uniforms.

Everyone knows that,sometimes they can be ugly.

Just imagine, if no schools had uniforms then what would that world be like.

Fidget spinners should/shouldn't be allowed in class.

I definitely disagree that fidget spinners should be compulsory so students can learn instead of focusing on the fidget spinners it makes people fidget with it because it says it straight in the title and it also causes distraction towards other people and will make everyone get it and our teacher will be mad cause of all the hard work and effort she put into it because everyone won't listen that's why i think fidget spinners should not be compulsory in school and in other classes

Rugby is better than Netball

I believe that rugby is better than netball cause it is more physical and makes u more fit and you get paid more money.

I think that rugby is better cause rugby is more exercise and get more fit also more money and netball players only have to stand still when they get the ball.

I Agree that Rugby makes thousands of dollars but netball makes 1.5 Million dollars Which is shocking.

My first reason is that you have more energy to run 109.4 yard around the field, and netball fields are 8.30 meters which is small for warm up running. Shawn Johnson is a Rugby legend and has made 10 million dollars over the years.
