Blog post #3. What if there were more breaks during the school day?

Welcome back to my blog post 3! In this post i will be sharing some very interesting results that i have found from doing some student interviews. I asked them 3 questions, 1st was, what do you think more breaks during the school day would do for you, the 2nd question is, do you think it help you be less stressed for your classes, and the final question that I asked was, would you want more breaks during the school day? For the first question I got a mix of answers. Some answers I got were, that it would make people feel less stressed and be more productive at school, I also got a lot of people who said that they would be less tired and have more time to do their homework.

For the second question that I asked I got a lot of people who answered with, they would be less stressed during there classes knowing they had more of a break after to see their friends and do some homework. And for the final question that I asked I got a few mixed opinions. Some people said that they would want more breaks during the school day. On the other hand I also had some people say that they just want to get the school day over with quicker.

In my next blog post I will researching what other schools do around the world and see how it affects their students.

Resources: The students who I interviewed at the school. Such as, Matilda, Katelyn, Isabelle, Ava, Baran, Siena, and Asmi. And more.

  1. Hey Nicola! I really liked reading this! I think your question is a great idea because it’s a topic that many have different opinions on. I love how you incorporated students at Charles Best to help you with your research. Something I think would help is using online ressources so you can target a larger demographic. I’m excited to read your next blog posts!

  2. Hi Nichola. I thought the questions you set up to ask were nice and straightforward. I really liked how you started this first round of research with interviews from actual students at our school. The uniqueness of your blog compared to other research blogs made it an enjoyable read and made me curious about your next blog. A question I wanted to mention was, would everyone benefit from extra breaks? While the extra time is great and all, I know for certain that some people would use that time unproductively. So to summarize my question, what would be some negative aspects to the idea of extra breaks during school time? – This is just a suggestion and was just something that came up while I read your blog. Fantastic job overall!
