Some people say history is one the most important school subjects. Other people think that, in today’s world, subjects related to life are more important than history. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

It is not an easy task to decide what

students

should learn in school since there are too many choices for a comparatively limited period of time. Some people believe

history

should be a mandatory subject

while

others might argue that

students

should spend time on something more practical. The essay believes that both

history

and practical

subjects

should be covered in the class and

history

should always keep its important position in the curriculum.

lessons they should draw from.

For example

realize the importance of keeping peace and avoiding conflicts.

In addition

, the local

could reflect the culture and traditions of the past and help to record what has happened. Only by learning

history

will

students

be able to pass on that knowledge from generation to generation.

However

, learning

history

does not mean that

more relevant to life. School should no longer be an ivory tower where

Therefore
