However, I feel that the disabled children should be given an equal chance like the majority to be allowed to attend mainstream schools for education. This is because it provides them a platform to learn efficiently and benefit more as compared to special schools. With more resources such as allied educators, these students will be able to learn more comfortably and quickly as before, especially since they will be able to have help from their peers. Having learnt the same content in school as the others, it also means that all students have an equal chance to bring out themselves in order to excel and succeed. Furthermore, the integration of these disabled children into mainstream schools allows them to overcome their learning barriers, such as communication skills or boosting of confidence. In the long run, it prepares them for the workforce as they will mostly be able to cope and work comfortably with the different people. For example, there are about 3,000 trained teachers to meet their special needs. They are trained to plan, adapt and differentiate the curriculum to meet the learning needs of students, thus enabling them to catch up to the pace of the other students. Another example would be Loh Jia Wei, who is a student with physical disability but had achieved a top score of 278 for PSLE and received bursary awards. This proves that students with disabilities are still able to succeed and therefore they should be included in the education system in mainstream schools.

Disability by Jun Ren and Han Yu
Some people state that it is not essential for children with disabilities to be integrated into our mainstream education system as these schools are unable to provide the resources needed to educate the students with special needs. Students with disabilities, such as dyslexia, are unable to learn at the same rate as those students with no disabilities. This might cause them to be ridiculed by their peers and lower their self esteem, and eventually, cause affect their studies. For instance, Ms Hui's Son, who is labelled as "slow and stupid" by students and Teachers. Studies have found that seeing negative words would release dozens of stress-producing hormones and neurotransmitters. These chemicals immediately interrupt the normal functioning of your brain, impairing logic, reason, language processing, and communication. All of that just by seeing words. Should the students, especially disabled students, be criticised, it might impede their education.

Experts laud move to have students clean schools
Link: Experts laud move to have students clean schools
Summary (50w): A move to make all schools include cleaning activities by the end of the year could bring long term benefits to students. It will help build character, cultivate a sense of ownership and spill over to the home environment. They will learn to take responsibility and have opportunities to work with others.
Opinion: We strongly agree with the Ministry of Education that students have to participate in cleaning activities. This is because such activities can teach the students to keep their environment clean and not litter, teaching them to be responsible for their environment. When they clean with their classmates, they also learn to work together in groups, having chances to communicate. Doing so also impart values and build character in them. Thus, we strongly agree that students have to participate in cleaning activities as it a platform for them to develop and benefit from.

One significant point that we agree with the writer is that the euphoria experienced by youths during a first love can make it more difficult to find happiness with a future partner. When youths have their first relationship, they would have a feeling of excitement, setting it as a benchmark. It is nearly impossible to replicate this feeling in subsequent relationships, causing them to feel that adult partnerships are boring and a disappointment. Thus, we agree that avoiding a passionate first relationship can lead to long-term happiness in later relationships.
Nasa scientists find evidence of flowing water on Mars

Summary: Water runs down canyons and crater walls on Mars, according to researchers who say the discovery raises the chances of being home to some form life. Water may rise up from underground ice or salty aquifers, or condense out of the thin atmosphere.
Opinion: In my opinion, this news deserves to be on the front cover because it is an important breakthrough by NASA's Mars Exploration Program. It also serves as a crucial clue that suggests there might be extraterrestrial life in the universe. Are there extant lives out there, or is it just us alone, in our solar system. This definitely excites readers and change their views of Mars - it is no longer just a red planet. Furthermore, they are able to learn of the world beyond our own, and some might even gain interest about the vast universe. Human curiosity as well as advanced technology have brought us this far, and this time, we made another huge discovery. Perhaps someday, in the near future, we may even colonise Mars, allowing us to live on another planet.
