WHAT DO HILLTOP HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS DO FOR FUN?
This week, our report is based on the results of the student activity survey we did at Hilltop High School. We
asked students in grades 6, 7, and 8 what kinds of things they do for fun. Many thanks to all the students who
answered our questions!
First we asked to know how many times a week our students exercise. Seventy-five percent of students
exercise three to four times a week. Ten percent of the students exercise only one to two times a week. Fifteen
percent of our students exercise every day. Our students do many kinds of exercise, but the most popular kind is
playing sports.
We next asked students about Internet use; Hilltop has some very “connected” students! Ninety percent of our
students use the Internet every day and the other ten percent use it three to four times a week. But why are the
students surfing the Net? Is it for homework? No, it’s not. Most students reported that they surf the Internet for fun.
The answers to our question about watching television were also interesting. Only two percent of the students
watch TV one or two times a week. Thirteen percent watch TV three times a week. The largest number of the students
(eighty-five percent!) watches TV every day. We asked students what kinds of TV shows they watch. The number one
answers were comedies. It looks like our students like to watch something funny after all that exercising and surfing
the Net! (Taken from: Go For It Thomson&Heinle)
