Moreover, homework isn't only wasting the student's time but the teachers time as well. By marking and grading homework, teachers are wasting their time. So teachers, please don't blame us the we wasted your time. Some people assume that homework is useful for teachers to watch student's progress but I firmly believe that homework is sent home to test the parents, not the children. I think that teachers can watch the student's progress in school better because teachers don't know that at home who did the homework, the parent, the student or the internet (Google)??????? People also think that homework helps parents to understand that the school holds high goals for students. But, I consider that school work is harder than homework and that means that parents can understand that the school holds higher goals than they think. Furthermore, homework becomes terrible if no one can help you. If no one can help you then you are doing work that you don’t understand, and if you don’t understand it what’s the point having the work that you can’t even do. I really, strongly believe that more kids would stay in school and have a better learning experience if they did not have the stress of homework.…
How are they supposed to complete hours worth of homework, as well as complete other activities that they are committed to? And on top of that, the student is expected to have at least 8 hours of sleep per day. Homework is preventing students from leading an active lifestyle, which therefore is harmful to their bodies. According to Stats Canada, about 72% of parents found that homework was often a source of household stress (Survey of Canadian Attitudes toward Learning). That is due to the fact that students are put under great pressure from teachers and parents. Unnecessary assignments could raise the stress level of the student, which can potentially lower productivity and performance, rather than raise it. Distress, which is stress that continues without relief, can lead to symptoms such as headaches, migraines, and high blood…
To begin with, homework is taking way family time and fun time from students. Because students get a lot of homework they no longer have time to spend time with their family or have their own free time. For instance, in the article titled “5 Reasons Why Homework is Bad for Your Child,” the author states, “Children need time to spend with their family, catch up with friends and attend extracurricular activities so they can refresh their minds and bodies.” The reasons that are stated in the article specifically, are examples of how homework takes away family time. School is supposed to only take up to 6 hours but with homework it no longer take 6 hours of school work but more. Therefore, students don’t have enough time to do there own things.…
The first reason that kids shouldn’t have homework is that they never really do it. The Huffington Post states,”By comparison, students from all OECD countries were spending an average of about 4.9 hours a week on homework.”…
Finally, homework is very demanding on kids. “In most U.S schools, homework has become more demanding and time-consuming (scope magazine, pages 20-21, lines 33-35). Studies have shown that most kids feel very stressed about schoolwork and homework. There is a lot of pressure to do well in school. Some kids feel like “if they don’t get help from their parents, they will be at a competitive disadvantage with classmates who do.” (scope magazine, pages 20-21, lines 69-72).…
Like I said before when kids have to stay up late to do homework for the next day they get sleep deprived and go to school exhausted and they can’t focus as well as students who get a full night's sleep. From personal experience…
Have you ever gotten home after school and realized how much homework you have due the next day and all of the tests you have to study for? Most teens have been in this situation once or more times before. It happens really frequently. Some kids get really stressed out and can not finish all of the work. This can cause you to get a zero on the assignment and hurt your average.…
According to another reading I’ve found out that most students do curriculum activities once they get out of school which are usually probably from 5:00 pm to maybe 8:00. And when you get home at around 4:45 every day you only have about twenty minutes to get ready to leave out again. There just isn’t enough time of day to have school for eight hours then spend another hour or two doing homework.…
After a long day in school, two hours of swimming, and an hour of playing on an instrument, dinner time hits and we drown in homework. Seven hours of school alone is draining for a daily life of a student. On our way home we carry the weight of our backpacks as if we are carrying the weight of the world on our shoulders. Piling homework will only encourage students to put it off. All students procrastinate because they feel overwhelmed with the workload. It feels daunting to start work which is why homework can even lead to cheating which leads to poor study habits. Being prone to cheating and having an insufficient amount of study habits will only lead to a fixed mindset.…
I've been in school for 10 years now and I get hammered with homework almost everyday. I know for a fact i'm not the only kid/teenager that feels like it takes away from a fun healthy childhood. When i get home I want go out to the lake and fish or ride a atv around with my friends not sit in my boring house doing homework! And we wonder why America is lazy these days. Teachers must get entertained watching us slave over work day and night. I'm about to end this with my claims and put an end to unnecessary work.…
Almost every student has homework every night. Homework can last up to one to three hours a day and it can make a student slack off. Brains work 6 hours a day with classwork, tests, etc. Brains need a break before they have to their homework. Homework is just another thing to think about when the bell rings to go home. It is definitely what no one wants to do right when they…
Homework can move on effect on athletes. Athletes have practice to attend, which saying,” Your not going to sleep until you finish that homework”.That causes a lot of stress and a lot built up anger. Another reason why students should get less homework is because of this work to grade.” The more homework that s assigned,the more teacher have to grade, and that is stressful.

Students should only be given limited amounts of homework per day. Have you ever fallen asleep in school because you were up so late doing homework? I know I have before. Sometimes teachers will give enormous amounts of homework. There should be limited homework for multiple reasons. There should only be a limited amount of homework because too much homework can cause stress on some people. Also, students that get a lot of homework might have to stay up late because they either had work after school or an afterschool activity. Teachers do not realize that even though their class is important it is not the only class students have, we have five other classes to study for. The average percentage of stress for high school students is 32.7%.…
The biggest and most important reason kids should not have homework is because they need time to rest their minds after having 7 hours of school. First of all, there’s a lot of pressure…
Homework is an infringement on family time. Many of the big media that would otherwise say that homework is important also decry the fact that kids aren’t spending enough time talking with their families. It is not possible to create an atmosphere of deep family connection when the parents and the students are all working three or four hours a night at home. You need many hours’ together, playing games, reading books, fixing the house together, going to movies, cooking for friends to have a balanced family life. Being together only on weekends is a crime.…
