Free Style Friday

Book Club discussions:
1. Please talk about the endings of your novels: were you surprised? upset? satisfied?
2. Please discuss two thoughtful themes in your novels. Avoid cliches like: Everyone should be nice to everybody.
3. Talk about your projects





Take a moment to free style on the following issue:

Should homework be outlawed from schools? Some educators suggest that the assigning of homework just leads to exhaustion, lack of time for other activities, and a possible loss of interest in learning. On the other hand, some teachers believe that homework can enhance what was taught in class and allow students to "play" with the knowledge in a new, meaningful way, instead of possibly forgetting it by the next day. Where are you on this issue? Should homework be outlawed from schools? Take a stand!
