Do kids need homework? Some of our readers say that homework reinforces(加强) what they learn in class. Others say homework adds to students’ stress and takes time away from exercise. Here are some students’ opinions.
When kids learn something new in school, reviewing it at home helps them remember it. Our homework gives our teachers valuable information. It tells them how much students are paying attention in class and who needs more help. —Peter
Kids are learning for six hours a day at school. Adding another hour of work for kids to do at home is just having them repeat what they’ve been doing all day. What’s more, homework takes time away from activities like team sports, hobbies, exercise, and playing. These are just as important as schoolwork. Homework just covers what they already learned in class. It’s pointless. —Mike
Kids need time after school for experiences that build a healthy mind and body. When homework heaps up, students get stressed. And the quality(质量) of homework that a stressed-out mind produces is low. Doing homework poorly is worse than doing no homework. As long as students are working hard in class, it’s best not to give them homework. —Olivia
Homework takes time away from learning material that wasn’t covered in class. Homework should not be canceled completely. But students should be given less homework so they have more time for creative activities. — Nancy
