Why do we need Headphones?

In Room Six we have been doing writing about headphones to see if they are important to have in the classroom.  We had to write an argument about headphones, so we got to pick if we should have headphones or not in class.

Why do we need headphones

              

                I think Room 6 should should keep headphones!

Headphones can help block out  noise in the room, so the people at the table can concentrate as well. You can’t hear what's on their chromebook.

When you need to hear something in a video, for your learning you can hear what the person is saying, so you can stay concentrated. Also when you are doing reading plus you can focus and get good grades.

Headphones can also help block out noise in the room the people at the table can concentrate as well. So you can’t hear what's on their chromebook.

For example when you are watching a video with someone next to you like a friend, the video that they are watching could be 30 seconds ahead or behind and then it would be hard to hear what’s on your chromebook, but with headphones there would be less of a problem.

Also you can listen to music if you are doing your school work, background music helps make your brain focus.  

Study.com says “Background music may improve focus on a task by providing motivation and improving your mood.”  

We need headphones to help us focus and blockout other students.

Research about Serbia

In 'refugee' there is an activate about you can do one of the activate of what country you can search about that Mahmoud has been on the map that we mark off where the characters have been so that's why I did Serbia.

Taupai

Hi everyone

Walt what we are learning is to help the reader build a picture in your minds.

Here is my description of Tupai from the real thing.

                                                 Tupai

We have a new kid in the class that is called Tupai. He has big bulky shoulders and he has muscle too. He is very tall even taller than the teacher and the rest of the class. He never fights with anyone in the class and never argues with the teacher. Tupai is very loyal to all his friends. And also even in the class. He is the most toughest in the class. When we go running around the court he is mega fast and when we go swimming. Tupai is the best tackler in the league team.
