Music: Important for Survival

 For my reading class I wrote a 5 paragraph essay on Music: Luxury or Important for Survival.
 
 My opinion on if music is luxury or important for survival I think it's important for survival. It's important because people use it for their cultures, music helps people with their moods, and music can help you in school.
 People say that music is luxury but i think they are wrong because it's important in many cultures to have music. i know that Native Americans have pow-wows and they sing their own songs and they dance. I also think Africans make their own songs and they sing them and dance to them and have their own "pow-wow".  But if we didn't have music then we wouldn't be able to sing and dance or have pow-wows. In some cultures they use music for important ceremonies.
 People say music doesn't help at school but I think it does! Music helps me do my work in class and that helps me concentrate. When your at school and you need to remember notes for a test or what you need to do as homework you can make a song and just keep singing and listening to it over and over again until you remember it. At some schools they use music to learn some notes . Foe example in my math class we sang a song to remember multiplication.
 When some one is sad or just having a bad day then you can listen to music. When your sad you can listen to music and listen to a happy song and make yourself happy. Music encourages me with my moods. A lot of people need music to help them clam down or get their energy out by dancing. They also use it for their therapy and it might be the only way that helps them.
 That is why music is important. People use it for their cultures, music can help them in school, and music helps them with their moods. That is why music is important.

T.V is bad for you!

In my reading class my group and I had to decide if t.v is good or bad for you and write a 5 paragraph essay.

  My group topic is T.V is bad for you. T.V is bad for you because people watch it way too much, there is a lot of bad advertising, and people also get lazy watching T.V.

 First, why T.V is bad for you is that people watch it way too much. I heard if you watch T.V way too much that you can mess up your eyes from sitting to close to the T.V. If you watch T.V in the dark you can also mess up your eyes. People that are coming home from work are tired and they want to watch T.V so they are watching T.v and they get a headache. When I watch T.V I get sick like a headache and you can get reed of it!
 Second, why T.V is bad for you is that there is a lot of bad advertising. People like the advertising but there is just way too much! About On every commercial there is about 5-10 advertising and most of them are trying to sell really bad stuff. The advertising try to get you to but cheap stuff. They also try to get you to but fatty foods.
 Lastly, why T.V is bad for you is that people get lazy. People get lazy from watching too much T.V and they don't finish there homework or they just get it done. People think they don't get lazy but they do. Also they don't feel like doing anything like cooking dinner or doing anything but watch T.V.
  That is the three reasons why T.V is bad for you. 1.People watch it too much. 2.There are too much bad advertising. and 3.People get lazy. That is why T.V is bad for you!
