Writing Prompts:
1. What do you do during your free time? Do you feel like you get enough free time?
2. What are your opinions on homework?
3. How has the school year gone so far for you? What do you like or dislike about it?
Response to prompt #1: Free time is amazing! Whenever I have a day with no homework and no other responsibilities, it's the best feeling in the world. When I have this free time, there are a select few things I do. One of the things I like to do is play sports with my family. Whether it's throwing football out back or playing basketball in the driveway, it's always fun. Another thing I like to do with this time is play video games. I love most any type of video game and will gladly play them when I have the chance. The last main thing I love to do when I have free time is to just sit back and relax. I may go out onto the back porch or just sit inside, watching T.V. In either situation, it feels so good to sit down without worrying about anything. Now, on the topic of if I, along with my fellow classmates, get enough free time. In my personal opinion, I do not believe that we do. In many of our Academy classes, we have daily homework, and it seems like everyday we have a quiz or test in one class or another. This work takes up a decent amount of our time, especially for those who have extracurricular activities on top of it. Even on the nights where we don't have much homework, there's some sort of studying that we have to do, inducing unnecessary stress in our already stressful teenage years. I know this may sound like another student complaining about excessive amounts of homework, but we are going to be working and dealing with stress our whole lives, so this addition of high amounts of stress and work does not help us out in any way. But anyways, free time is the best and I love whenever I have it.
