NO HOMEWORK! Cole Tussing 2 / 24 / 12
Have students ever planned a fun activity with their friends / family and it gets ruined by homework? Did they wish teachers didn’ t give them homework all the time? When students have homework, do they tend to get stressed out? Since all these questions are true, I say,“ there should not be any more homework!”
First, teachers will not have to grade all those tests, assignments, projects, etc. Not just students get stressed out by so much homework but teachers too. For example, teachers get stressed by having an entire skyscraper of essays to grade in 1 day! How hard and stressful does that sound to those poor teachers? We need to help the teachers by not having any more homework.
Another reason, not to have any homework is students can hang out with friends and spend time with family. Students would hang out with friends because sometimes they don’ t go to the same school or different grade level. However, when they both have so much homework, they can’ t hang out with each other. The teachers take it away and don’ t care about them being friends! Next, if one friend is doing homework, and the other student doesn’ t, the student who doesn’ t have any homework can spend time with his / her family. A chance the parents can spend time with their child. However, if the children have so much homework, then the parents can’ t spend time, all because homework broke apart the family.
Finally, students already learned the concept. The students don’ t want to do the same math problem, social studies question, or science project that they already mastered the lesson in the entire 40 minutes. Think of the children in this horrible tragedy! The students just sit there and be bored because they learned the lesson previously in the year or other school years. I’ m positive if you were one of the students who barely survived this depressing moment, you would do something about it. Forty minutes might not seem such a long time but two 40 minutes is
80 minutes; that’ s more than an hour! An hour feels like a month to the students!
Hope you think about this tragedy for the students / children and the teachers who are in charge of the classroom and their responsibility at all times. Also, you’ ll be called the
