Homework should NOT be assigned in schools. It is just a waste of time and is just too much. One reason why homework should be banned is because homework is just too much. Schools have been increased so there is no point into giving homework. According to the text with research Homework Should be Banned, “Schools has increased from 9 to 3 with 1 ½ hour of recess and lunch to 8:40 to 3:15 with only 30 minutes of lunch and recess.” This quote shows that too much is just too much. Students should not cry because of homework. School has been expanded. Have you ever wonder why lunch has been a little shorter than in 1st grade? To include to that too much homework is bad for you. As they say “Too much of something is not good for you”. Second of all, homework just makes kids hate school even more. According to the text Homework should be eliminated, it says “Excessive or pointless homework turns children away from the joy of learning.” Homework is the only word kid’s fear. This quote shows that homework should be fun; it should not be a torture. Every time in school, at the beginning of the year, you’ll hear “Have fun”. Students cannot have fun when homework is torturing kids. Like Jia Ming said, it is no help. Learning needs to be a positive experience learn with a smile and you can walk an extra mile.
Another reason why homework should be banned is because it is evil. According to the text Homework should be Eliminated, “When students have hours of homework, they don’t get enough sleep, sunlight, and exercise.” This shows that too much homework can cause be things to happen. You don’t spend time with your family, your backpacks become really heavy, and this explains why kids are obese. Kids spend so much time doing there homework they don’t have time to even go to sleep. These things can cause a lot of pressure and stress in high school. Also another reason is that according to research some of the smartest country like Finland and Japan don’t have homework. We can be just as smart as or smarter than them without homework. This shows that homework have no academic achievements towards grades. This is why kids should not repeat not have homework.
Finally homework is just too overwhelming. After school, you either have to do chores or go to after school activities. According to the article “Homework Should Be Banned”, it says that “homework should vanish because sometimes when you have homework, you have other activities to do such as music lessons, or an after school job”. Homework is just too big. When you have a lot of after school activities you end up doing it at the last second. To prove it I sometimes see many kids doing homework during breakfast hmm…Felix...Too much homework can cause stress and give kids a bad grade instead of helping.
