My ideal school -- Mashiro Yamashita

 My ideal school is to combine many ways of studying. I have came up with this school because I hadn’t decided what is most important in education.

 At first, we will combine study inside and outside. Sometimes, students will study inside at a desk, and sometimes they will study outside like growing vegetables or flowers. By doing this, students can learn knowledge which is important in the future. In addition, they can appreciate nature and the environment in our life.

 Second, we will use both book and Internet. Today, media literacy and knowledge of using Internet are very important because more and more people use the Internet all over the world. However, some people like using books to study. For example, when I was a junior high school student, I always used the book to remember English words, because it was easy to write in the book and I could carry it easily. Therefore, students can receive benefit of both of them.

 Third, students will study at a desk and in groups. Sometimes studying independently at a desk is important because they should learn standard knowledge from their teachers. Without knowledge, we can’t think on my own. On the other hand, studying in groups is important, too, because we can know about other’s feelings or the ways of thinking. In addition, we can get speaking and listening skills.

 Some students may not like this way because they want to only do one thing like studying outside. However, I think everything is important. Therefore, teachers should teach students an importance of varieties. By doing so, students may understand. This is my ideal school.
