Reading Are video games good or bad for me?
Writing Do you think video games are good for school?
Playing video games is fun. But do you think it's a good idea to play video games at school?
I believe that videogames are good for schoolonly if it is for learning purposes. Apps like Matific or prodigy are good learning games for school. T games like Fortnight or Call of Duty are definitely not for school. Here are some reasons why video games are good for school.
Firstly, in a way games can help students learn stuff without them even knowing it! Some games put random knowledge and give you points to get you interested in learning. You build your way up to harder questions and learn stuff on the way.It may sound bad because students could get distracted, but we actually learn a bunch of new things to prepare us for life. It can help children learn easier because of the way the game is played.
Lastly, students can get better with social connections and they can connect with more people in the class when they play together. We can meet new friends at school in video games and be more confident with eachother. We can be more interested in learning because of the video games we play at school.
In conclusion I think that video games are very suitable for school as long as it is related to learning.

My cheery music
Music or Sports?
If someone were to ask me, “Do you think sports is better than music?” I would say no because I believe that music is better than sports. I have many reasons why I think music is better than sports. So sit back and relax.
Firstly, listening to music can be calming and it can reduce stress if you listen to a specific tune. You could find out that you are good with an instrument. For example a guitar, piano, or maybe even drums. Once you keep practicing you could probably teach another person to play an instrument as well!. When playing music it could increase your focus on other things! Like for example, it could help with focusing on work or maybe even on a really hard test. Here are my reasons why I like music better than sports.
Now I will explain why sports are not better than music. Firstly, while listening to music it could relax you while playing a sport could stress you out. Sports could only stress you out in games. Your coach and parents would be watching and you know you want to make them proud. The coach could put a little pressure. Secondly, you could get injured playing sports because some people tend to get a little rough or maybe even get angry if something bad happens. Thirdly, not everybody could play sports. Some disadvantaged kids, elderly and injured people can’t play sports. Kids should be forced to play sports. They should only do it if they want to.
These many reason explain the pros about music and the cons about sport. I hope my writing has persuaded you to think more about music and sport.
