Argument No.2

This week we did another argument. This time it was on whether we should allow phones at school. This is mine.



I strongly believe that we should have phones at school. Firstly because they can be used as a second tool of research. Secondly if something happens, eg; fire or an earthquake you can get in touch with parents. Lastly you can store a lot on your phone, like your work.


Phones are an amazing secondary research tool. If you have a piece of writing you need to research about you can use your phone to bring up your facts and copy them onto your writing. Also if you haven't finished some of your learning and don’t take your chromebook home you can do it on your phone.

Your phone could save you from a fire at your school. The US government has stated that in the USA there are 4000 school building fires and around 75 people get injured every year. If you had a phone you could be saved and save a lot of other people. You could call 111 to help.

A phone can store a lot of documents. You can save your MathsBuddy PDFs and all of your Google Drive. What about all your blog posts and comments. Your phone can do a lot! And if you need to download a book to read or info you can do that with a click of a button.


I strongly believe that kids should be allowed phones at school because it can be used for research. It can save lives and lastly has loads of storage for books and information.
