Is it ok?
Can you tell me if this sentence is right?

We propose reducing one hour of clases and giving students snaks and drinks.

Thank you!!For example, I need to write a report where in a school students complained about the six hours a day. They think that it's too much. I want to say that we should reduce one hour.

Answer

Hi, not quite. You have a couple of spelling mistakes (classes/snacks)
Also your wording is not quite right. Perhaps:
We propose reducing classes by one hour and giving students snacks and drinks.

Answer

We propose reducing the classes to one hour and giving students snacks and drinks.
or
We propose reducing the classes by one hour and giving students snacks and drinks.

(Both are possible, but have different meanings—which do you mean?)

Answer

I don't like the word "reduce" here. I'd use "eliminate."

We propose eliminating one hour of class and giving students snacks and drinks.

If you must use "reduce"

We propose reducing the length of the school day by one hour and giving the students snacks and drinks.
