You might be asking yourself if having homework is even necessary? Most students might say homework is not necessary because we already do work during class., which is true, we do get lots of work during the day due to all of our classes. Having homework can cause a lot of stress. This is because we already have class work that can get piled up on top of homework.
Other people might say that homework is good to have after school, some reasons for this might be that it can help students understand more by doing more work from a subject that the student does not understand. Homework can be helpful because it can help students understand a subject more. This can lead to students helping out other students that might not understand the subject as well. It can also help the students get better grades for that certain class.
It can also help the teacher determine if the student is understanding the lesson that is being taught. Homework can also give the students an opportunity to review the lesson at home.
Even though these are good reasons on why students should have homework I would say that students should not have homework. This is because having homework can cause anxiety, physical issues, or even mental issues.
For example, having homework after school hours can stop students from having family time or socializing with other people. This is bad because this can cause students to be distance with their family or friends in general. Believe it or not homework is very hard to understand if you don’t get it and if the student does not have anyone at home who understands the material it can get hard and confusing to learn.
This might lead the student to fail because the student doesn’t know how to do the work that was assigned. Some other reasons are that having homework can cause a student to not eat because they want to be able to get their work done to get a good grade. This can affect the student’s health and more. In conclusion, I think that having homework is not necessary because we already go to school for about 7 hours and do work most of the time.
