No More Homework by William Daigle

Homework is isn't of help at all, all it does is that it adds more stress to the students. I recently learned by doing some research that says that a lot of the assigned homework is pointless busy work that doesn't help us student's learning at all. It stops some students to do sports/extracurricular activities and it creates too much stress.

Home work is useless, it doesn't help students learning. O.k for example I'm a student who does history homework, when it comes to tests anything we did in our homework has nothing to do with the test I find it useless all I do is read and answer questions nothing else. So like I said homework will rarely come to help. That also goes for other subjects. If you do your homework and you have no clue what do it won't help the best thing to do to help your learning is to go to remedial at lunch or in the morning. It is not homework who is suppose to help you learn that's your teachers job. Homework is useless busy work.

Homework also prevents student athletes do to sports because they have a ton of homework to do and their parents stop them to go to a practice are a game or even from doing a sport/ extracurricular activities because they believe that their child should put more focus on school. Also it adds a lot of stress because one night they had a game and also had a lot of homework to do and some don't do it and some have to stay up late and in both cases it creates stress which can lead to lower grades and in some cases depression or worse. So like I've said homework is pointless busy work and creates stress.

Like you read previously and I've said several times it creates a lot and I say a lot of stress to students. Studies show that yes some students who were to stressed about school and their overload of homework can suffer from depression. People know that depression some times lead to suicides. Some students can die by a suicide because they could support the weight that was put on their back so they decide to kill their selves. So teachers, schools, etc no more homework it leads to deaths in severe cases. It also leads to lower grades because sometimes their homework is graded.

By the end you must understand my point. It is pointless busy work, it prevents students to do sports or extra curricular activities. Also it adds too much stress and it can lead to depression. Students should not have to do school work at home when us students we come home we don't want to do homework we are at home when we are done at school we shouldn't have to do more school work. So I say teachers please no more homework.
