I know a lot of sixth graders who think their backpacks are too heavy. I don’t think backpacks are too heavy. In 6th grade you do not get much homework. I will be talking to you about whether or not backpacks are too heavy. I will be telling you some things that you can do to make your backpack lighter, and how your backpack can help you if it is heavy.
First of all, you don’t carry your books in your backpack very much. One of my teachers puts the textbook online . Next, if you have your backpack on the bus, you can just put it right next to you so you don’t have to carry it. Most of the time you don’t have to carry your backpack at all. Also, when your backpack is a little heavy you get a little bit of exercise. Sometimes you have to walk down your street and you might get a little tired, but otherwise they are not too heavy.
In conclusion backpacks are not too heavy. So, people should just stop worrying about it and just carry their backpacks! In my opinion, if you think your backpack is too heavy then just keep carrying it.

Lorenzo,
ReplyDeleteYour article made be think about how little I hear about the weight of backpacks the farther along we all go through a school year. My thought, and maybe I'm wrong, is that you and your peers grow so much that the backpacks become easier to lug around. I also think students learn to better stuff their bags. Instead of taking every little item home, they take what's needed. I liked most your point about many texts being online now. Man would THAT have helped me about a thousand times in middle school when I left stuff in my locker!
Nicely done.
