Dear the Board of Education,
I know most students think that school is boring, but I know how to fix it! We should have more experiments and activities in school, such as the shadow experiment in fifth grade.
First, experiments and activities are better than pencil and paper. You get to see it happen right in front of you instead of writing it down on paper. Students get tired of just writing everything down.
In addition, they are hands-on. For example, if you are mixing chemicals, they won't just float up in the air, and pour itself, will it? No! You have to pick it up yourself.
Another thing is that students will pay more attention in discussion. So, they will know what to do. Students will learn more because experiments are more fun and interesting.
In short, we should have more experiments and activities in school. So, please consider letting students have more experiments and activities in school.
Sincerely,
Ashton
