My kind of school day

Alright, here we go again. The following updates, starting with "My kind of school day," include stuff that we've been working on during the last couple of months. Hope you guys enjoy our updates! Any comments are heartily welcome!

On my kind of school day, students school would start at nine o`clock. They would have art, home economics, religion and Finnish. Then they would go home at two o`clock. No homework and no detention. Students would choose their own seats. Teachers would show lots of videos and students wouldn`t have to write so much. They would have only textbooks, not workbooks. Pupils could leave their books at school. Classrooms would be much nicer and chairs softer. No tests at all. Students won`t have to give talks. Books would be funnier and more interesting.

My kind of school day would be easy and it would have all the easy subjects. We would watch a movie and have pizza for lunch. Before Christmas me and my class went to Tampere to watch a movie and go eat. The cinema was small and there was no one. After the movie we went to subway. After that I went home by bus.

Day starts with English. Then there is P.E. for two hours, like inside the school. Then we eat food and then is crafts at the end of the day. Day is like four hours long.

I usually wake up at 7 o’clock in the morning. When I get to school I go and wait in front of my class until the lesson starts. Then I study very hard all day and hang out with friends and eat. I usually go home at 14 o’clock but sometimes I go home at 15 o’clock. When I get home I do my homework.

If the decision was mine, the schooldays would be shorter. I really think we don’t need schooldays this long.

I would like to study more languages and less maths. I don’t think we will use the junior high’s mathematics in any part of our lives. There could be less physics and chemistry, too.
The schooldays could be more relaxed. Maybe there could be softer chairs or something.
I’d also like some kind of “resting hour” in the middle of the school day. There would be resting classrooms in the school. In those rooms there would be big, soft armchairs and sofas and little televisions with headphones. There the pupils could relax and rest before the next lesson.
There shouldn’t be a compulsion to go out on any break if the temperature is lower than -10. I really hate cold air, it’s so hard to breathe.

I would prefer more essays and stuff and less sitting and being unoccupied. But I don’t like vocal presentations, not at all. I also think that teachers should give less homework.

I would love to wake up at 7.30 am, because now I have to wake up at little past 6 am. I would have plenty of time to wake up and get ready for school. I’d have time to do my make-up and hair.

Even if I would get to choose the school subjects I wouldn’t want the school day to be like three hours of P.E and three hours of art, that would be boring and I’m no good at them.

My kind of school day would be a lot shorter. And the breaks would be longer. There would be no homework. There would be English and Finnish. After the school day I would go out with my friends.

My kind of school day would be very relaxed. It would start at ten o’clock and stop at two pm. First I would have two art lessons. Lunch would be healthy and delicious. After lunch I would have two music lessons. There would not be any compulsory outside breaks in the winter. No one would not bully and everybody would have fun!

I would like that my school starts at 10.00 o’clock. First we would have two hours P.E (physical education). Then we could have a nice and healthy lunch at school. Next we should have some education still like physics or mathematics, so we would still learn things in schools. The school day would end with Finnish class so we might learn some new things. Then the school day would end and everyone would be happy and ready for next day.
