Case: Homework-Yes or No?
I am not sure if homework is a good idea. Many of my students are home alone after school and do not have an adult at home to help them complete assignments, which results in the students not turning in complete assignment or any assignments at home. On the other hand I think it is important to spend a few minutes a night reviewing new information and homework is a good way to get kids to practice what they have learned in class. I am tired of fighting the homework battle. I would appreciate any insights on the viability of homework
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Every home situation is different. Some parents hate homework, others ask for it, and other aren't there to give their opinion of it. Keep it balanced. Only give homework on certain days of the week, maybe Monday and Tuesday when parents and kids are fresh. Many parents here complain about homework on Wednesday nights because they are involved in church functions. Know your community and make exceptions for those students that you know don't have the support at home and give them an opportunity to do it during the school day before they go home. |

Comments: Being aware of your student' community is important, and not just for homework schedule. Allowing support during the school day is an option to get the homework done. |

Comments: I agree with this post. Homework can help, but too much of it, can hinder. We want to raise well-rounded students. Therefore, a massive homework load is unnecessary. Students need to spend time outdoors after school. Church functions are important as are other extra-curricular opportunities. There must be a balance. It is unreasonable to have a child at school for 7-8 hours, spend another 3 minutes to an hour in the car or on the bus, and spend 2-3 more hours on homework. Children need time to decompress and spend time with their families. |

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would exactly do this. I liked how it was mentioned "know your community", I think it is important to know if church is really popular some nights or other examples of community involvement. You do not want your students that they need to stay up late to complete an assignment and not have them fresh the next day. I also liked how you stated give homework on certain days, like the beginning of the week. That way students and parents are both fresh. |
