Well, I found this blog to be quite ironic considering this is a part of a late assignment, but I really wanted to talk about due dates on Language Arts papers.
A major question that has been lingering in the back of my mind is - are due dates on literature a good thing? Of course assignments have to be turned in, but due dates put a unneeded stress on kids which can affect the quality of their work.
By having a new system of due dates in which writing assignments are turned in can relieve the stress level kids have. Lower stress levels leads to relaxation and a calmer mind. This could lead to an increase of quality in work!
Obviously having kids turn in their work whenever they please is simply not practical, so I have come up with a new solution. Doing you're writing assignments the day they're assigned. This way you will have no stress from the time you finished to the time you turn them in. After completing the assignment, go back and edit it and put you're thought into once you're relaxed.
