Dear Mr Sutton

I am writing this letter to you because I have came to a conclusion that we should be allowed gum at school. I feel very annoyed that we can not have gum because it is a good and quite thing to do in class, plus you can still pay attention.  There are many solutions as well to get people who chew gum loudly with their mouth open to stop.  Here are my reasons why we should have gum. In this letter I will analyze to you my reasoning. If people have bad breath they can have some gum and feel minty. Chewing gum is good if you are bored and you can chew it quietly while paying attention and not wasting any time. Most importantly it does not make you feel hungry in class because of the flavour.

Don’t you hate when people have bad breath like a dog. It stinks so bad. If gum was at school this would not happen. Like if you go to speak to someone up close and they breath out through their mouth and say something and you get a really horrible smell up your nose YUCK! Teachers and Students work close together when they are sharing their work and have been asked to go up to the teacher's desk. Then you start reading your story and your breathe is disgusting, but what happens if you forgot to brush your teeth? Where as I said this would not happen as often if there was gum being allowed at school.

What happens when you are bored in class and you need to do something and listen at the same time. Gum can do the trick! The reason why is because the teacher is writing something on the board and the also the teacher is explaining it, but you really have to listen to what the teacher is saying and you are so bored and it is so boring like a cardboard box. Gum to the rescue! There is a problem what about the loud gum chewers? Well there are truckloads of solutions like if they can not chew it quietly they have to spit it out into a Rubbish Bin. Anyways gum will let you listen and write down notes at the same time. It will also make it enjoyable for your mouth as it will also have something to do.

It has came to my concern that have you ever had that bad feeling in your stomach? How you feel really hungry in class and can’t wait to eat something and all you can think about is food. Well while you are at your desk you really need food right then and now? Well just have some gum and chew it a few times and the hungry feeling might go away. Plus in America or another country like that there could be all different flavours of gum like pizza, hotdog or even chips but etc.  (Change)

Gum would be good at school because it may help people with their grades and keep people more on task. So they would not have to smell bad breath, get bored in class and not pay attention by playing with something and not feeling hungry in class. This is why I believe that students like me should be allowed gum at school from now on.

Yours Sincerely, Alesha
