My Persuasive Speech


Hello Students and Teachers



Have you ever wondered what would happen if a teacher  breaks the school Rules, would they get punished?  when us kids break the rules its obvious we get a growling because we are small




Do you kids want to see your teacher in detention? Do you want your teachers to get a growling? Should the students in schools follow the rules?  What makes kids so different to Adults



So why should us kids have rules to follow, why?




Maybe when teachers are not doing what they are supposed to, it might and could affect our education.  We trust them to teach us right from wrong and if they go break the rules they just  they might just go about laughing like nothing happened, then the students break the rules, we either get sent to the principal's office or sent to the flagpole, I would like to see a teacher sitting at the flagpole .  Teachers should also get a growling they should follow the same rules as the students.  If they are caught on a phone it will be taken off them,  they would have to write out 50 lines.  I say that's payback.

This is a Speech I have written about "Why teachers Should follow the same Rules as the kids".
