Tough life

I've got a tough life,
I always get hit and thrown,
Nobody cares about me.

I remember the day i first got hit,
It was good until that day,
the day they hit me over the fence and forgot.

The home run was great,
until they forgot me,
Nobody cares about me.

What the Flag Means to Me

When most people look at the flag, they see the fifty stars representing fifty states and the stripes as thirteen colonies. Some see the red of the flag to mean brave, white as justice, and blue as liberty. When I look at the flag, I see so much more. The red and the white stand for the flesh and blood of the men and women who have served our country. The color blue and the stars represent all of our states united by the pure blue sky. Our one dollar bill states “In God We Trust”, I also feel it relates to the flag. God will watch over our country and keep it safe. Finally, and most importantly, the stripes join our country together to make the great United States of America.

The Worst Part of School

I am sitting in class and beside me I see someone doing their homework when the are not supposed to. Have you ever seen that happen? Why does homework even exist, all it is is extra unreasonable work for us to do. Homework should be outlawed.

We should not have homework, kids just want to get it done and not do their best. When somebody gets homework and has something after school they will work on it and guess during instructional time. What is the point of doing this if they would just get no learning experience out of it.

Homework kills trees! Most homework is made out of paper. Why waste paper when you don't get anything in return. No child will learn anything so why waste the paper. If we kill all the trees we will die. If you don't believe it this is how it will happen. First the trees will be gone. Then animals will have to eat other plants which it will all run out.

Homework will never impact a student. Students usually don't do their homework in a good learning environment. For example I am doing this essay in front of the TV. If they are not doing it at home they will be doing it in instructional time usually. Everything teachers teach them will never make them learn.

Homework will never be an impact on teaching. You know how schools are trying to help the earth, maybe they should stop homework. Then schools would finally go green. Homework has no point. Why was homework invented?
