Maya Shkolnik         Kids should have iPads in school.

 

“What does this mean?” “What does that mean?” That is the sound of people wondering what something means. If students have iPads, learning will go much smoother. You can look up words faster, study more easily, and you don’t have to carry around heavy books. All these things will happen if students had iPads for school use.

          All students should have iPads for school use because you can study more easily. You could search information that your teacher recommends and write it down in your notes really fast but without it would take a long time. Then you have more time for the rest of class activities. My friend has iPads in her school and her class is ahead of schedule because of the iPads. Beyond that, she can change the background, buy a case, and has a limited amount of games. Surely, isn’t that reasonable?

          In other words, all students should have an iPad for school use because you could search words really fast and not waste your lesson time. You can just search it and go on with the lesson!!! It’s that simple! Lessons could go much smoother if students had iPads because you don’t have to waste time. As proof, there was this very hard word and no one knew what it meant. We took a long time to find out what it means and turns out it was in our notes! My point is that it takes a long time to find a word in a dictionary and we could’ve used an iPad to do it. If we did, we could’ve finished the lesson.

          Students should have iPads for school use because if we had iPads, students won’t have to carry around heavy books when we travel from class to class. You could download books on the iPad and it doesn’t add the weight of another book! If you had to carry books for the whole transportation time, your back will eventually fall apart!!! Our binders are heavy enough. So we have to carry books?  We could be using the iPads and have ALL the information on it.

          Don’t you think iPads will make learning easier?  Well, it will because we will have more time to learn. Instead of getting off track, you can stay focused. This will only happen if students had iPads. If we did, we won’t be hearing “what does this mean”…
