ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY

 From two years ago, which was 2011, student in elementary schools and middle schools stopped going to schools on Saturdays by the new law of government. Every students were happy with the new law until they found out that their summer and winter vacations were shorter than a month. I was one of those students with dissatisfaction with students not going to school on Saturdays and thought that this could be a serious problem that needs to be changed. Let me introduce some reasons and my opinion of why I think should go to schools on Saturdays.

 The first reason is that vacations are too short. As I told you before, vacations are shorter than a month. In fact, I couldn't be in my school on the very last day because the vacation was too short and I had to come to this camp. Longer vacation means longer time to experience. We could go travel for long time, learning about their culture, study things that we were interested in like another language or an instruments. Or you could join a camp like me, without any absent. Also, schools are places which are too hot in summer and too cold in winter. Studying in these places makes student don't want to go to schools or some students even get some health problems.

 The second reason is we can keep our daily cycle. What time do you usually wake up at Saturdays, when there is to no school or work in the morning? Most people will say late late morning or even during the afternoon. However, getting up early everyday is important. Your body can get used to get up at that time and it will prevent you from sleep disorder. Also, when you get up early, you can eat your breakfast and that will make your brain active.

 

 However, people who thinks we should not go to schools on Saturday say that students can learn more outside. They say students can learn many things by traveling other places or going to a museum. However, what do students do at school on Saturdays? They have adviser time and do club activities. They choose clubs they are interested in, join it and participate with their mew friends with similar interests. Some clubs can be about sports, art or music and they can learn about them for only two or three hours and go back to home before lunch. And I think students can get enough time to learn outside of schools after lunch, too. So, even I agree that students can learn many things outside of schools, I still think that going schools on Saturday can also get student some valuable experiences.

 

 They might also say that students need some rest on weekends. However, as I told you before, we stay at schools for 4 hours before lunch and students can get their free time after that. Also, on Saturdays, student only have adviser time and do club activities which are not really hard. They can do whatever they want to do after that time. So I think Saturday afternoon and Sunday is enough time for students to take rest. 

 To summarize, I told you about why I think students should go to school on Saturdays. The reasons were first, vacations are not long enough for us and second, we can get up early. i also argued that going schools on Saturday can be a good experience and students can take rest during Saturday afternoon to Sunday. These were the reasons why I strongly believe that students should go to school on Saturdays. Thank you.
