JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 8

               Religion and education are too different things so in my opinion, they shouldn't be mixed together.Schools have been thinking about putting the ten commandments in classrooms so students would know the rules that should be followed. I disagree with this because the ten commandments states things that don't go with the class expectations.Another reason is some kids have different religions so the ten commandments would be something that they don't a play a role on.

JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 4

The pressure of teen sports has not gone too far. One reason is that kids can actually use sports to their advantage because the sport can get them a sports scholarship to college. Another reason is that society has SIGNIFICANTLYinfluenced people into thinking that one can conform with not winning, that trying is simply 'enough' to get a participation ribbon. Lastly, sports are used to help CONSTUCT social skills and for kids to have fun. The pressure of teens sports has not gone too far because the sports can help them IDENTIFY with themselves.
