Although many people argue that students should be banned from using cell phones in school, I think they should be allowed to have them.
First of all, say, a students need help on a certain problem but the teacher is busy helping another student, busy grading work, talking to another teacher, or is not in the room at the time. The student then should be able to use his or hers phone to help them.
Another reason, is that students need to be able to call a family member or someone else in case of an emergency. Say that the student forgot something or had an accident, they should be able to call in private and not get embarrassed or feel weirded out.
Lastly, students should be able to play around on their phones during lunch or free time. I know some people will argue otherwise on this topic but kids shouldn't be crammed with work for 8 hours a day for 5 days a week. If you try and force them to focus on one class after another with no breaks, they won't be able to remember much. You dont have to give the students a long time to mess around but like 5 to 10 minutes to clear their brain for more information. I know that a bunch of students could back up this opinion.
In conclusion, I think students should be able to use their phones in class and have them during the school day.
I hope this works :D
Explanation:
Helen Frangedis is a high school teacher that always includes The Catcher in the Rye in her course syllabus for the year. Parents are always concerned about the book because of the profanity, drug and alcohol references, and “loose moral codes”. When presented with these concerns, Frangedis states that there is a deeper meaning in the book and the students have the challenge of finding it. She addresses her audience of parents with good reasons of reading and analyzing the book, while understanding their concerns.
Frangedis’s article focuses entirely on J. D. Salenger’s writing style. Salenger greatly exaggerates Holden, his issues, and society throughout the book and that leads to all of the profanity and drug/alcohol references. With his writing style, people began to notice, read, and criticize “The Catcher in the Rye,” all because of one reason; Salenger’s exaggerating writing style. Society always pays attention to the bigger, more exaggerated, stunning news. For example, people will pay more attention to the semi-truck that flipped over than the car that hit a pole. The reason is simple. Watching the truck flip over is more stunning and impressive than a car hit something. The same goes for “The Catcher in the Rye”. People will read a book that is full of drugs, cursing, and drinking over the book that is nice, short, and sweet. Knowing who society is and how it works, Salenger wrote a book that not only goes against society, but separates him from all other authors.
