Have you ever been in class and realized that you have no idea what you’re actually doing or learning. You then become very discouraged and just decide not to do it. It just one assignment you won’t fail or anything. Then that one lesson you never fully understood is used in the next few lessons and you instantly fall behind. Just because you didn’t learn and do your work. Even though some believe students have enough time to learn and do their work, they don’t because not all students work at the same pace and not everyone wants too or can learn in the time given. Some solutions to these problems would be giving students more time to work and working with those students that have a harder time learning.
One very obvious way to solve the problem of students not learning and doing work in the time given in the classroom is to give them more or extra time. Many students nowadays don’t pay attention in class and there could be many different reasons for this. A few of the more probable reasons for this is laziness, learning disabilities, and distractions in the classroom. If students were given extra time, where they could work one on one with the teacher, they could learn the material and how to do the work. 7th grader Colton, stated that, “extended time to do work and learning” would help student learn and get their work done.
Another solution to the problem of learning and doing work would be motivating the students in some way to get the material done. Some students don’t want to do anything unless they get something out of it. If the students had some kind of motivation to do good in class they may be more prone to do their work and make sure they learn the material. A few ways to motivate students could be candy, games, and free time. 7th grader Macy, said that a good way to solve this problem would be to, “motivate students so they want to do their work.”
When students don’t get their work done or don’t learn they fall behind fast. Grades are very important especially since high school is not far away. In high school if they don’t pass the class they don’t graduate but in middle school it doesn’t seem to matter as much. If they learn now to get their work done and learn they will do better off in high school then those that don’t. You got to pass to graduate and graduating high school is one of the most important things to do in your life. If teachers gave students extra time to come into class they could work one on one with them and they could get their work done and learn the material better. Students who get the material should step up and help those that don’t. If those that can’t learn or get the work done fix this problem now and do better in class they will be better off in the future. They are more likely to pass classes, graduate high school, and get a better job later in life. It will be easier for everyone at SMS if students did their work and learned because it would motivate other students to do the same and help teachers make sure everyone passed.
