Homework

Most students have never liked homework. They have always claimed it spends a lot of time and that it's unnecessary. Moreover, there are some kids that believehowmework is slavery and an act of coercion, just as Ben Berrafato, an 11 years old boy does, in his protest against homework.

I don't agree with Ben, and I even think homework is important. It helps the students to understand better the lessons and that's why it is necessary. I think students have to deal with the material by themselves, at home, because they have to practise it and get ready for their exams in order to get high marks.

Well, I think the work at home is effective because everyone can concentrate easier at home than at school and try alone to deal with the material and not have to worry about the time. I believe that as much as the students invest in school and homework, their grades will be higher.

To conclude, I think teachers should give the students homework but to be considerate also, and not make them use all their free time, because after all, we are the ones that benefit from practice homework but we have lots of things to do.
