Portfolio task 4

To raise your children with a good manners you need to encourage them to compete or to cooperate with each other, so that they can became independent and useful adults. Competition and cooperation are both important skills in children’s life because they can help to improve their knowledge and experience. Some people think that competition is more important than cooperation between children and some people are against that and say that cooperation is more important. In this essay I’m going to discuss both ideas.

First of all, the first reason that people think that competition is more important is that it can help them to search and look around for answers. The second reason is that it will help them to get high marks by competing with others. The third reason is that they can work alone without others help which can prepare them for the future.

 On the other hand, the reason that some people like the cooperation is that they think it help the children to improve their knowledge by sharing ideas with each other. If we group the children the percentage of failure will be decreased. The other reason is that when you make groups in a class it will end up with competition between groups.

In my opinion, children need both competition and cooperation with each other because they can help them to improve their skills and will prepare them for the future.
