porfolio task 4


Some people think that a sense of competition in children should be encouraged. Others believe that children who are taught to cooperate rather than compete become more useful adults. In this essay I will outline the views and I will give opinion.
Some people think that a sense of competition in children should be encouraged and that’s because when they grow up they can depend on themselves. There are a lot of positive things in encouraging children for competition. One of those things is that children will have self confidence to do a lot of things and decisions in their lives.
Other people think that cooperation rather them competition between children will teach them how to be useful when they grow up by building them to be team workers for the future.
In conclusion, I think that encouraging children is the best way to make them the best men and women in the future.
