Our homework this week was to think about this statement and come up with 5 reasons why children should and shouldn't get paid to go to school. Each person in the class chose one from their work......
Why should children get paid to go to school?
· So we have lunch money
· Because I am good all the time
· It will motivate children to learn
· They need to learn
· For completing tasks on time
· Because the government should pay
· So they can buy cool toys
· You could put the money towards buying lots of learning tools
· We work hard and put in a lot of effort
· We can save for our future
· So kids can have money to pay for mufti
· We work hard
· Children can pay their own activity fee
· Children could do jobs for teachers to earn the money
· You could play at home but instead go to school
· Children can learn how to save from an early age
· We can save it up
· We work our hearts off
· So we can buy birthday presents
· We can buy our clothes
Why shouldn’t children get paid to go to school?
· Telling people about your money and then getting tricked out of it
· Parents could go broke
· Kids would not learn the value of money
· Because you’re getting something out of it already
· It costs someone a lot of money
· Children may get bullied for their money
· They can learn not to get paid
· It’s not a job
· The government will not have enough money
· We would have to do chores
· Not all parents could afford paying for children to go to school
· Your mum and dad might make you buy stuff for them
· Just because you get paid doesn’t mean you’re going to try to learn
· We would only come to school for the money
· You might stop enjoying your learning
· People would have lots more children to get lots of money when they go to school
· Knowledge is more precious than money
· Children already like school
· Because children’s parents already pay for everything
· It would cost a lot
· Children learn to show off so they shouldn’t be paid to go to school
So what do you think??? Makes you think doesn't it?

it teaches kids at a young age that life is all about money, thats not right. money should not be the motivation for kids to go to school. their motivation should be that their fortunate to go to school because there is tons of kids in poor countries and africa that would love to go to school but can't.
cool reasons,i just couldn't find the 1 i told you

i do not think kids should get paid to go to school because it defeats the purpose of going to school. you go to school to learn not to get paid. It will also be more bully problems if you pay kids to go to school
