text: There is more to do then just text at lunch time with your phone. You can play games, listen to music, watch videos, record videos and more. If we could have our phones out at lunch, it would also reduce the amount of noise there is. Sometimes people would yell across the lunch room in order to talk with someone on the other side. If we could have our phones out, there wouldn't be as much of that as there is now. I don't see the reasons why we cant have our phones out in the cafeteria. Its not like we're going to be able to text somebody in another class because they would have their phones off. Most student would be texting while in class instead of paying attention. This is a reason why some students sometimes just don't learn. If we were able to text at lunch and have our phones off while in your other classes, kids would pay more attention and learn more. Being able to have our phones out at lunch would make things easier for the teachers in the lunch rooms and students. The teachers wouldn't have a hard time looking for any students who have moved from their assigned table, and the kids would be more silent and occupied.
