Homework

By Kayla

At my school parents have been complaining that kids get way too much homework and the teachers should limit it. They have even started a campaign over it, but the teachers don't agree. They think the homework limit is just fine. And so do I.

The first period class, fourth period class, fifth period or any of the last period classes don't give us homework. Well they do but only when we don't finish our assignment in class. So if you would finish your work in those classes you wouldn't get very much homework.

Maybe if you are a little slow. No offense. You might get a lot of homework, but otherwise you don't. People, I think, are just being lazy and don't want to do their work.

In math the teacher only gives us about 20 problems every night for homework. 20 problems really is not a lot at all. She even gives us a little time in class to do it. There is also the ELA teacher Mr. Heist, who also doesn't give us a lot of homework. Every night it's the same stuff just different spelling words. Monday we have five times each; Tuesday we have sentences, Wednesday we have story only using five of the words on the spelling list in it, and Thursday its ABC order.

So if you think about its not a lot at all. At the most we should only get about three pages a night unless you don't finish you work in one of the classes that don't give you homework unless you don't finish your work in class.
