The Case for Unplugging: Why Elementary Students Need Tech-Free Time

✨ Writing Prompt

Imagine a typical week in your household: screen time is often used for homework, entertainment, and even social interaction among children. While technology can have its benefits, many studies suggest that excessive screen time may negatively impact children's health and social skills. Write an argumentative essay that presents a compelling case for integrating a tech-free period in your child’s daily routine. In your essay, include a clear position on the topic, supporting evidence, and a strong call-to-action for other parents and educators to join in this initiative. Consider potential counterarguments and address them effectively.
