A Smarter Home

Smart living is becoming more popular and more people are building smart homes. One example is me from Turkey. I am building a three-bedroom town house for my family and I want to make the house as intelligent as possible.

I plan to use only green electricity. I am going to put a wind turbine on the roof to make electricity and I am going to use solar panels to make electricity.

There aren't going to be the usual safety features: there are going to be fingerprint locks to enter the house and there are going to be security lights on the outside.

The inside of the house, isn't going to be like a traditional house either. I am planning to save electricity. Instead of normal lights, I am going to use automatic lighting so that when no one is in the room, the lights will switch off automatically. The fridge is going to be controlled by a computer and tell my family when they need to go shopping. Are we going to go shopping by car? Not in a normal car: we are going to use an electric car and fill it with electricity with a charging point in the garage.

What are we going to do in the evening for entertainment? I have plans to build a sauna next to the garage and have a home-entertainment system to watch films after work.

Doing Homework 2

Homework is an important part of the learning process in middle school. One reason is that homework gives students additional practice of skills covered in class. Middle school classes are too short to teach a new concept and practice it sufficiently for students to master. Students need both guided practice in class and independent practice at home. Another reason for homework is that it provides time to complete longer assignments. For example, the ideal composition process allows time for students to think and to reflect on their ideas, as well as time to revise and to proofread their writing. Also, reports and special projects often require research that can not always be done at school. In addition, since all students do not work at the same speed, giving students time at home to finish work keeps them from falling behind. Finally, the most important reason for homework is that it ensures review. New material and old material are practiced in daily assignments. Students who do their homework daily are prepared for tests and make better grades. In conclusion, not only is homework essential to mastering new skills and maintaining previously learned skills, but it also guarantees constant review and provides time for longer assignments, as well as additional time for students who need it. Students, do your daily homework, make better grades, and learn more!

Doing Homework

Doing homework is one of the most beneficial activities for students because of some reasons. First of all, it encourages individual work because students complete their assignments alone after school. This teaches them responsibility and organization skills. According to a recent research study in 2013, educational scientists found out that there is a strong relationship between doing homework and being a responsible student. the second reason is that doing homework regularly provides practice and practice makes perfect. Doing a lot of practice helps students not only review the newly-learned topics but also explore them fully. Therefore, they get higher grades. In conclusion, homework certainly contributes a great number of abilities to students.
