101 Some people say that physical exercise should be a required part of every school day. Other people believe that students should spend the whole school day on academic studies. Which opinion do you agree with? |
Those who consider studying the most important thing to students might say that students have to only study in shcool. However, I think that it is more desirable for students to spend several hours per day exercising in school. There are two main reasons. First of all, as far as reducing stress is concerned, there are many advantages to have physical activities in school. Students are stressed out due to heavy burden of having to study hard and competitions among peers. Sometimes they want to get out of burden of studying. From running on grounds with friends to having fun playing games, there is nothing better than exercising in school. When they do physical exercise, they can forget not only grades of test but also difficult homework even though it is a short time. Thus, exercise is good for relieving stress and give much power to study well later. Moreover, physical exercise helps students to be adapted to society. Some people might say that through academic studies, students can have much professional knowledge and get a job, so they can be adated to society easily. However, it is just about an expertise and job, not about becoming a sociable person that learn various academic subjects. By playing games such as a soccer and baseball with classmates, they can learn not only how to cooperate each other but also how to help and encourage other people. These are important abilities to become a sociable person. As society is getting complex, the role of school has been changed. It was to teach academic knowledge, but now it is to give many chances to students to get along with others well. In summary, it is better to provide students physical exercise classes. This is because it can relieve stress and help students to be adapted to society well. |
