Should School Be Year-Round?
Should School Be Year-Round?
Many students say that June is the best time of year. In most places, school lets out as summer begins. Some students don't spend summers at home or at camp, though. They are in school instead. That is because they go to year-round schools.
Students in some year-round schools go to school the same number of days as students in regular schools. But they get mini-breaks throughout the year instead of one long summer vacation. The mini-breaks are a few weeks long. For example, students at some year-round schools often get a few weeks off at Thanksgiving instead of just a few days.
More and more schools are becoming year-round places of learning. The National Association for Year-Round Education states that the number of students in year-round schools has tripled in the last ten years. By 2001, there were about 3,000 year-round schools.
Could your school be next? Would you want your school to be year-round? Read the arguments that follow. Then decide.
Yes Schools Should Be Year-Round.Year-round schools are better than regular schools. Students in year-round schools have more breaks. They get to enjoy time off in every season.
Year-round schools allow families to plan vacations in times other than summer. Students in year-round schools are less likely to have to miss school for a trip.
Frequent breaks are good for students. They have less stress when they go back to school ReadWorks.org

Should School Be Year-Round?
after a break. They become more eager to learn. One student said, "I love it. Just about the time I'm really tired, I get a break."
Breaks also give teachers time to plan better lessons. Teachers in regular schools are so busy teaching that they have less time to plan lessons for their classes. Students in year-round schools tend to remember what they learn. That is because their breaks aren't too long. Teachers don't have to spend time going over things that students have forgotten over the summer. All schools should be year-round.
No Schools Should Not Be Year-Round.Year-round schools are a bad idea. Summer is a great season. Students should be able to enjoy their summers.
Most families plan vacations over the summer. Year-round schools restrict family vacations. They also don't allow students to go away to camp or take on summer jobs to earn money for the future.
Too many breaks disrupt learning. The breaks allow teachers to focus on a topic for only a few weeks. During mini-breaks, students are away from school long enough to forget what they learned.
In regular schools, lessons are not broken up by frequent breaks. Teachers can spend more time on one topic. Teachers also don't have to plan around as many breaks. Summer can also be very hot. Many schools don't have air conditioning. How can students learn in a hot classroom?
Christopher Newland, a researcher at Auburn University, said that year-round schools do not help students learn. Newland said, "The evidence is that it would be as useful as changing the color of the school buses."
Regular schools work just fine. There is no need to change to year-round schools.

U.S. Presidents: Abraham Lincoln - StepRead1
U.S. Presidents: Abraham Lincolnby ReadWorks
Abraham Lincoln became president of the United States in 1860. Today, he is remembered as one of the country's greatest presidents. He showed a lot of leadership while in office. He led the country during the Civil War and helped to end slavery in the United States.
Lincoln was born in Kentucky on February 12, 1809. He came from a humble background. His family did not have a lot of money. In fact, the place of his birth was a log cabin.
In 1816, Lincoln's family moved to Indiana. At the time, the state was on the west edge of the country. Not many other people lived there. Lincoln worked in the fields and on the farm with his father. His mother died in 1818.
Lincoln did not have much time for school as a boy. He spent no more than one year in a classroom. Even so, he learned to read and write. He read any books he could. He read his family's Bible. He also read Aesop's Fables. He would walk for miles to get books.
As a young man, Lincoln had many different jobs. He cut logs for farmers. He helped take a boat down a river to New Orleans. He also started a store with a friend. At one time the store owed money to people. Lincoln started working other jobs to earn the money needed.
A friend suggested that Lincoln become a lawyer. Lincoln did, but he did not go to law school. He taught himself law instead. "Your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing," he would later say. By "resolution," Lincoln meant determination.
He was also a writer and speaker. One of his greatest speeches was the Gettysburg Address. He gave it during the Civil War. His words comforted people and gave them hope that democracy would survive.
As president, Lincoln was most proud of his Emancipation Proclamation. This announcement was made during the Civil War. Lincoln said that slaves in the southern states fighting the U.S. government were free. The Emancipation Proclamation made the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution possible. That amendment ended slavery throughout the United States.
Sadly, Lincoln was killed in 1865. He was the first U.S. president killed in office. People across the country were sad. Millions of them admired him. They liked his spirit and the work he had done for his country. Many people went to see the train carrying his body to Springfield, Illinois, when it stopped in big cities along the way. Today, people visit the place where he is buried to show respect for him.

Los científicos observan a los pulpos y creanuna nueva forma para mantener el frío o elcalor
Imagen 1. Un pulpo común en el lecho del océano. Fotografía tomada por: Albert Kok/Wikimedia Commons
El ingeniero Alon Gorodetsky recuerda cuando abandonó todo. Lo hizo para estudiar a loscefalópodos. Esta clase de animal marino incluye al calamar, a la sepia y al pulpo. Él vio un videoasombroso. En él se observaba a un pulpo que aparecía de repente de entre una roca. El animalhacía uso del camuflaje. Se llama camuflaje a una técnica que usan algunos animales paraocultarse confundiéndose con lo que les rodea. El camuflaje le permitía al pulpo permaneceroculto a plena vista. Esto me llevó a pensar: "tengo que trabajar en ello", dijo.
Una lámina ayuda a las personas a sentir calor o frío
Gorodetsky trabaja en la Universidad de California en Irvine (UCI). Con la ayuda de loscefalópodos, Gorodetsky y su equipo crearon algo con éxito, pero no se basa en el camuflaje. Esuna especie de lámina. Esta les permitirá a las personas regular su propia temperatura. Podrán

controlar el nivel de calor o frío que sientan. El equipo de la UCI utilizó para esto la biomímesis.Esta es una ciencia. Estudia cómo se comportan los organismos vivos para luego imitarlos.
Las células son muy pequeñas, pero son esenciales para toda forma de vida. Los cefalópodostienen una capa de piel llena de células especiales. Estas células contienen pigmentos. Se llamapigmento a una coloración natural. Los cefalópodos se pueden ocultar a plena vista gracias a estascélulas. Estas células especiales se expanden y se contraen con mucha frecuencia. Esto cambia elcolor de su piel. Imagínese que usted dibuja unos puntos sobre un trozo de plástico, diceGorodetsky. Luego, estira el plástico. Esto hará que los puntos se vean mucho más grandes.
En el caso del cefalópodo, dicho procedimiento cambia la manera en cómo su piel refleja la luz.Esto le permite modificar su apariencia. Así se confunde con lo que le rodea. El equipo de la UCIusó la misma idea. Pero con un propósito diferente. Colocaron pequeños trozos de cobre muyjuntos sobre una lámina de goma. Cuando la lámina está sin tensar, el cobre absorbe el calor y loretiene. Cuando la lámina se estira, los trozos de cobre se separan entre sí. Esto crea espacios entreunos y otros. El calor entonces escapa por entre dichos espacios.
Disminuyendo el costo de la energía
Las personas pueden utilizar esta lámina de gomapara cambiar su propia temperatura. Esto significaque no hay necesidad de cambiar la temperatura de lahabitación donde se encuentren. Esto podríasignificar un gran ahorro de dinero en energía.
"Fabricamos unas mangas con el nuevo material y tres personas se laspusieron", explicó. "El brazo de una de las personascomenzó a sudar de manera incontrolable". Así quesimplemente estiró la manga para reducir el calor. "Lasegunda persona se sentía a gusto. Y la tercera de ellastenía frío". Esta última, se pudo poner un suéter extra en lugar de encender la calefacción.
El siguiente paso para el equipo de la UCI es lograr incorporar el material a una tela de verdad.Esta luego podría ser usada para elaborar cosas. Podría ser utilizada para elaborar camisas ysábanas. Y hasta tiendas de campaña.
"Hay mil maneras en las que se puede utilizar este material", comenta Gorodetsky. "Solo tenemosque convencer a la gente de que se lo ponga y que lo use".

The Pool
The Poolby Gabrielle Sierra
Alex and Karen were sitting in their backyard on a hot summer day. All they wanted to do was go swimming, but the local public pool was under construction, and all of the adults were too busy to give them a ride to the beach.
"I just want to sit in the cool water," said Alex, imagining how nice it would feel.
The two sat quietly as they thought about how else they could cool off.
"Let's blow up that kiddie pool that we have in the garage," suggested Karen. "We can fill that with water, and it will help us cool off."
The two ran to the garage and found the inflatable pool stuck in a box. They dragged it out to the lawn and looked at it.
"It needs to be blown up," said Karen.
Alex sat down and started blowing air into the pool through the nozzle, but after a while he realized it wasn't doing very much. He was exhausted and out of breath from all the blowing. The pool was too big for just one person to inflate, and at this rate it would take Alex all night.
ReadWorks.org · © 2013 ReadWorks®, Inc. All rights reserved.
The Pool
He sat back, defeated. "Okay, so how are we going to get it inflated then?"
Karen thought it over. Alex went back to the garage and got a bicycle pump, but the ends didn't match up. Then Alex came back with an old vacuum, but that sucked air instead of pumping it.
Karen thought and thought, and eventually she realized something.
"Did we check the pool box and see if there is a pump at the bottom?" she asked.
They ran into the garage and tipped the box over. Out fell a pump. They laughed.
"That was a very good idea," said Alex, as they went back to the yard and connected the pump to the pool. "We were so excited to find the pool that we didn't gather all of the pieces first."
Finally the pool was blown up. But as Karen and Alex looked at it they realized that it was slowly deflating.
"There must be a hole somewhere," said Karen. "We'll have to find it."
They each took a side and examined the pool, but couldn't find anything.
"The hole may be too small to see," said Alex. "How can we find it if it is too small to see?"
"Maybe we can feel it," suggested Karen.
She traced her finger along the pool, only to find that she couldn't feel anything.
"I know," said Alex, "let's listen and maybe we will hear the air escaping."
They placed their ears next to the pool and listened. Sure enough, Karen heard a soft sound as air escaped through a hole.
"I found it!" she said. "That was a good idea. The hole was too small to see, but we could hear it. Now we have to patch it."
Alex ran into the house and grabbed a bunch of different things to try and patch the pool. First he suggested glue, but that didn't seem to make sense to Karen. It would have to dry, and they wouldn't be able to swim until it did. Then he suggested a Band-Aid, but that wouldn't stick around the hole. Last he pulled out a roll of gray, heavy-duty tape.
"That should do it," said Karen, cutting a piece and placing it over the hole.ReadWorks.org · © 2013 ReadWorks®, Inc. All rights reserved.
The Pool
They refilled the pool with air, and this time it stayed full.
"Now we have to fill the pool," said Alex.
But how would they get the water into the pool? Karen suggested filling buckets up from the kitchen and carrying them outside. At first this seemed to work but they soon realized that it would take them forever to fill up the pool. Then Alex suggested filling it from the spout in the backyard.
"That makes a lot more sense," said Karen. "Let's drag it over to the spout."
They did, and Alex turned on the water. The pool was soon full.
Alex and Karen went inside and put their bathing suits on. Then they ran back outside and sat in the pool.
"Well, we can't swim, but at least we found a way to stay cool," said Alex. "And we worked together."

The Pool - Comprehension Questions Answer Key
10. Are Karen and Alex good at solving problems? Explain why or why not, using evidence from the story.
Answers may vary, as long as they are supported by the story. All students should be able to make the argument that Karen and Alex are good at solving problems. Karen and Alex figure out how to inflate the pool, patch its leak, and fill it with water through a combination of resourcefulness and persistence. On the other hand, students may point out that Karen and Alex are not always great problem solvers. If they had thought ahead after getting the pool out, they might not have wasted so much time trying to inflate it with ineffective methods.
