W.A.L.T: Write a Persuasive Text
Should Phones be banned during class?
I think it is a bad idea to let students have access to their phones during class. This piece of writing will be covering why students shouldn’t have phones during class.
Phones are a major distraction from work. During class, if someone had a phone, they would have access to games and videos, which will distract them from their learning and they won’t know much about the work they are doing when it is given to them.
Phones can be used for cheating. If doing a test, they could easily be used to search for the answers and get every question correct, or have another student text them the answers which is unfair for the students who studied, listened in class and aren’t cheating.
Unless you have health problems, I don’t think you need a phone to call if there is an emergency. If there is an emergency during school then go to the office or staff room to ask a school staff member to call your parent/guardian. If it is during class ask the teacher to call.
Overall, I don’t think cell phones should be allowed during class time, because they are distracting and can be used for cheating.
What I enjoyed while doing this was writing it and coming up with points to why students shoudn't have access to their phones during class.What I found difficult was coming up with points to why phones should be banned in class. I need to come up with more convincing points and add more on to the points I currently have.
