It was fun writing the persuasive essay. It was better when we had 1 week free from homework! It was fun and exciting. It was relaxing with a no-homework-week because I could actually play with my friends from 5pm – 7 pm! When I get homework I can only play from 5pm – 5.30pm. And then i need to go do my homework. It was a fun week for me. Thank you Ms O’Dwyer for letting us write the essay and persuading you to give us 1 week free of homework!

From Benedict

No wonder Mrs. O’Dwyer gave you a week off homework. You made a good ‘case’ against homework. These skills of persuasion are very important in life. You can use them in speaking and in writing. They are powerful and will lead to your success in all areas of your life- personal(at home), social (with friends) and professional (at school). ACtually, i have an idea of how to use your skills of persuasion for school improvement.
Well done, Dr. Ettie Zilber
