Homework Times

By Kyler

Dear Editor,

 

My name is Kyler. Many students here at my school are getting frustrated about homework. Parents want their kids to have a life instead of doing homework all the time.

These are my reasons for having less or no homework. Homework is kind of ridiculous … sometimes. Sometimes homework is fun and easy, but some is hard and tiring. Some homework assignments take hours and I have stayed up to midnight doing assignments. I think we should limit the amount of home work teachers should give the students.

Work, work, work. That's all we seem to do here at my school. We go to class to class and work for seven hours straight. And on top of that we have homework. Some kids have after school programs such as sports and occasionally clubs like reading groups. All of that on top of each other sounds like a pretty cramped day. And that's how most people's days are. Like I said, parents want their kids to have a life. Not much of a life I would say.

Many times teachers don't like our behavior and give us extra homework. I don't think that should be allowed. Some teachers just don't know when to stop. They sometimes give us tons of homework for the entire week. Some teachers are nicer and give us a steady stream of easy homework.

Homework can be fun and easy, all we need to do is limit the amount that is given to us. In the end people would be much happier with less homework.
