Homework should be used moderately in schools. Instead of all the students doing the same thing, students should be given homework where they need it. If a student has trouble doing something they can be given homework to help them practice in that area. To little homework makes school progress to slow. To much homework causes stress, and if you stay up late doing homework it will affect your ability to do well in school. Schools, for the most part, should not give more than two hours of homework per night.
They should also check in with the students to see how long their homework is taking him. Schools shouldn’t give busy work that just uses up time and doesn’t teach anything. Students should be given homework long in advance, so they have time to plan around their schedule, it should not be given the day before its due. Teachers should make homework as interesting as possible. Kids will rush through boring homework or not do it and they will come to dread whatever class it is coming from. Boring homework will have a negative impact on the class rather than helping the students.
