“Ewww” I can already smell everyone’s stinky feet. They may smell good but I know that I don’t want to smell any of them!
For one of our writing prompts this year, we had our chose of partners (So I picked Meghan) and we were asked to compare each other’s shoes and write a paragraph about what we observed.
Meghan and I live in the type of country that’s real rugged, and it would be very difficult to live the way we do if we didn’t have cowboy boots. We ride, walk, compete, and go on cattle drives with our boots.
The only purposes of our boots are: so that you can enjoy them, ride in them, and compete in them. The reason I wear boots for these events is because if you need to get off your horse fast, like if you were doing Goat Tail Tying and need to jump off you can because the bottom of my boots are slick witch makes it possible to get off without getting drug by your horse. Plus if boots had strings on them then you might get the shoe strings caught on something. So because boots have slick bottoms and no shoe laces they prevent you from being drug or any other dangerous stunts, except for if you fall down on the ice.
When I think of what kind of boot that I want to have, I think about what I’ll be doing so that I’ll know what to look for in a boot that will suit me , like: barrel racing, pole bending, cattle driving, having fun, going through mud, and just about anything you can think of. My boots appearance may not satisfy you, because my boots are old, dirty, and just about worn out. Their cracked on the outside, and the bottoms are caked with mud and cow manure. Though they’re now clean because of the snow you can still smell the aroma of their true sent. It’s wild and no one can make out the exact sent of the boot, but that doesn’t matter to me. My boot is old and worn, and they have holes inside and a few on the outside. My boots are suppose to be as black as the midnight sky and are suppose to have a pattern of mystical animals fighting in the sky. I know that I have a wild imagination about patterns and stuff like that but I try my best. But Meghan’s shoes are very different from mine. They have lots of zigzagging lines on them.
When we talk about age between my boots and Meghan there’s a three year difference. She’s only had her boots for a month and mine are three years old. Though they do look like there 100 years old!
But all in all Meghan’s boots have way more differences then similarities.

“Too Much Homework” sounds familiar don’t you think so. These are three words often used by kids. But kids don’t just say them so that they can get out of doing their homework.

Many schools around Colorado don’t understand that the more homework you give your students, the more stressed out they get. Plus, it hurts kids academically as well. Kids also don’t have all the time in the world to do their homework, because lots of parents (like mine) want to go do fun activities with their children; and since global worming has been going on, recycling is also very important and homework is a waste of paper.

In Canada I researched that they took surveys that would tell them if homework really does apply stress, and if it hurts young children’s self confidence. I personally think that it was a good call on their part, because many children have these problems.

Lots of kids tend to worry about when they will be able to have time to do their homework. If they aren’t able to turn in their homework on time and do it right, they might get the idea that their not good at anything; and that will cause their self confidence to go down the drain. But having more than four pages, affects kids of all ages and a lot of the time it gets worse as they get older. If they only had one or two or maybe not any homework at all; they might have higher self confidence and they won’t have to find an extra hour just to work on their homework, and they probably won’t be able to have any help from their parents. But with no homework the schools scores will most likely improve by the hundreds!

Kids need more freedom throughout their lives and they can’t have that privilege because their always working on a homework assignment.
In our school (West Grand Elementary School and Middle School) we start school at 8:00am and end school at 4:00pm. The middle schoolers have at least 5 pages of homework a day, and the girls have basketball practice right after school which is at 4:00pm until 6:00pm and sometimes all the way to 6:30pm. No one has any time to do their homework that’s one of the main reasons everybody dislikes their homework, including parents as well.

Many websites on the internet are trying to fight against making kids (like me and my friends) do homework. They know that kids get stressed out and that they don’t have enough time to do their homework.

All of these reasons that I stated are true, and I’ve spoken to many kids like me about this matter and they all agreed, so I hope that you will to.
