The back to school period of time usually lasts from mid-September through late-June in Spain. In United States, Europe and Canada the school period lasts from mid-July through early/mid-September. In Australia and New Zealand, this usually occurs in January, while in Malaysia, this period lasts from late November to December. In India the back to school starts in the month of June. In Japan, which is unusual in that it starts its school year in spring.
In merchandising, back to school is the period in which students and their parents purchase school supplies and apparel for the upcoming school year. At many department stores, back to school sales are advertised as a time when school supplies, children's, and young adults' clothing goes on sale.
Office supplies have also become an important part of back to school sales, with the rise in prominence of personal computers and related equipment in education: traditional supplies such as paper, pens, pencils and blinders will often be marked at steep discounts, often as loss leaders to entice shopper to buy other items in the store. Many states in America offer tax-free periods (usually about a week) at which time any school supplies and children's clothing purchased does not have sales tax added.
After all sale period, the real sense of school comes: Students are exposed to new subjects, new knowledge and new responsibilities and duties:
One of the most difficult school subjects for the students during the academic year is Maths and English. We all know about what Maths is envolved, but children already know how difficult and complex English Grammar is.
English language grammar includes an ever-unfolding set of rules. As a subject of study, it's more deep than broad: students in the early grades learn a basic overview of parts of speech and sentence types and as theyadvance in grade level, older concepts are broken into more complex systems.
In that way, English grammar is like the branches of a tree, with new rules and concepts extending outward from previously learned principles.
