Summer Assignment

Summer vacation to students in the US is an expectation that no one wants taken away from them. Personally I do not want summer vacation to be touched; however changes could be made during the school year that could help students to be better focused on their lesson plans. I would like to propose having shorter class periods because after ninety minutes of nonstop focus, the brain tires and my motivation personally starts to fail me, unless I am in a class that I am interested in. If shorter class periods is out of the question then another option to consider might be giving us Mondays off. A three day weekend would be a good way for students to catch up on work and hopefully they will take the opportunity to be better prepared for class on Tuesday. That's my opinion for the situation regarding reducing or taking away summer vacation. Summer vacation is definitely a must have break and it is worth all the hard academic work leading up to it.
