Homework is a necessary and often dreaded part of every student's academic journey.

Whether
you're in high school, college, or even graduate school, the workload of assignments, essays, and
projects can seem never-ending. And when it comes to English class, the workload can be even more
overwhelming.

English is a subject that requires a lot of reading, writing, and critical thinking. From analyzing
literature to writing essays, the assignments can be time-consuming and mentally draining. And with
the constant pressure to maintain good grades, it's no wonder that many students struggle to keep up
with their English homework.

But why is English homework so difficult? For one, the subject matter is often subjective and open
to interpretation. This means that there is no one right answer, and students are expected to come up
with their own unique insights and arguments. This can be challenging for some, especially for those
who struggle with writing or critical thinking skills.

In addition, English homework often requires a lot of time and effort. Reading and analyzing
literature can be a slow and tedious process, and writing essays can take hours of brainstorming,
drafting, and revising. And with the constant stream of assignments, it can be hard to find a break in
between to catch up on other responsibilities or simply relax.

Realize homework is our child’s responsibility, not ours. He’s one of the most unmotivated people I
know and expects life to just be handed to him on a silver platter. This did get my attention because
teaching life skills to our kids while they are young and in our safe environment is what parenting is
all about to me. We know that we must scaffold new learning onto existing mental frameworks to
build new knowledge. Like Comment Sandy 650 reviews 11 followers February 7, 2009 I don't
know if I appreciated this one as much as The Homework Myth by Alfie Kohn. I personally don't
think that the author focused on these point enough in the book. Although the research shows that
homework hurts younger aged children, there is almost no evidence that homework is a detriment to
middle and high school students. I think the educational system in most countries should rethink
things and consider what they do to the children. Unless the child has learning or attention issues or
anxiety, as mentioned above, he or she will typically beat the clock. Recently, homework advocates
have shifted their focus from homework's questionable impact on student achievement to
homework's alleged importance in developing traits like self-discipline and time management. I liked
that it was a quick read, because it was already too repetetive (could have been condensed to an
essay). Going to give some of these a try with my 8 year old who has made the great big leap into
3rd grade. It also shares more of the history of homework in relation to public schooling, and how
homework has evolved within the framework of public education. One of my sons didn’t want my
help until he did poorly on a test. He needed a BREAK after school, whereas, I wanted to ensure his
homework got done so he could have the rest of the evening to relax and create. Professional
educators need to design rigorous academic work, scaffold new knowledge, and coach new study
habits. There are too many variables at play such as developmental capacity, the type of homework,
parental involvement, the amount, and the list could go on. If you want, you can laminate the
Homework Plan after it’s filled out so that it stays in good shape. Educators need to consider these
questions before answering calls about homework from parents and the local news media. And
remember, just because you prefer a certain work environment doesn’t mean that it will work best for
your child. I was the one causing way more problems than solutions. The educational system varies
from one country to another. I love the chapter on the history of education, and I love the suggestion
that teachers and schools can intrude (through homework) into the privacy of family life. I struggle
every day with my son sitting down to do homework. This practice had been passed on from one
generation to another. Out of date. Don't bother, unless you think that lots of homework is a good
thing. It's not. Like Comment Rachael Davis 3 reviews 2 followers Read August 7, 2013 A bit of a
slow read but still has interesting points. I would sit right next to him repeating myself over and over
again. Then, we came up with a time that worked best for both of us. Instead, encourage your child
to check his own work and encourage him to keep working hard.
It is a quick read, and all teachers should be familiar with the arguments herein, even if professional
experience points to different conclusions. Homework is a black hole in the learning process, leaving
teachers unaware of each student's true educational level or progress and unable to scaffold new
knowledge for the students. Like Comment Anne 801 reviews 5 followers February 13, 2012
Nothing earth-shaking. The problem is, we now give homework in preschool - it is a standard. It
seriously released me from feeling like I was failing if they didn’t get it done. I’m so thankful for all
the resources I found to help us overcome the homework battles, for sure. For example, we have one
son who requires external stimulation. If you set boundaries and clear expectations, your kids will be
able to discover other activities to do. See other similar resources ?1.00 (no rating) 0 reviews BUY
NOW Save for later Not quite what you were looking for. Overall I enjoyed pausing to question this
fundamental part of school life - homework - that is rarely scrutinized or given space in public
dialogue. It really isn’t helpful to do everything for our kids. I’m definitely gonna try to use these
with my kids. Rather than defending the practice of homework, educators should direct national
discussion to more important issues. It is really bizarre for the kids to go through this educational
system. In some instances, the parents are being so harsh to their children. Although an interesting
read, this book is mostly only relevant for elementary school teachers. In China, they still have
homework for their summer and winter vacation. I understand that China now has a problem with
childhood obesity because school children have no time for exercise. 6 years indexer You are
absolutely right - all that homework is far from healthy. A call for more school funding should be the
mantra of our profession. They can feel a stronger connection or not have the need to fight back. Itsu

how to be good citizens and how to share in the responsibilities of running a home. And yes, having
a dedicated space definitely helps. Image Credit: pixabay.com Cancel Education is the best thing that
happened for a child to obtain from school. Close to 20 percent of children in the United States live
in poverty, and homework further exacerbates their academic problems. Well-meaning parents cannot
overcome their lack of resources, including the time needed to make sure that their children complete
school assignments. By calling homework into question, we are not questioning the work of
homework, but rather the value of students completing that work at home. Here are all the benefits
and a way to make reading exciting and fun. Then, I was able to be constructive instead of
destructive. It seems impossible for the students to experience this. During the following week, he
asked if I could study with him.
Mostly from me because the frustration would boil over causing me to be a sobbing mess. It is a
passport for them to have a better life in the future. Moreover, how can teachers know the level of
their students' learning if they don't know how students are getting their assignments done at home.
And at that age, we need to encourage play and discovery in the small amount of time they have left
in their day. However, if there is zero motivation to do anything, have her work on what she’s most
interested in. After taking a step back from all the tension, I realized there was a power struggle for
autonomy happening. My hope is to inspire parents like you to create lifelong connections with your
children and enjoy the journey along the way. Education leaders should seek to ensure that after-
school learning programs are academically rigorous and work closely with the community
organizations that provide after-school services. Like Comment Kristina 6 reviews October 14, 2007
It's revealing. Realize homework is our child’s responsibility, not ours. Her mom even helped her with
homework through college and now with a degree she hasn’t been able to find a solid job for a few
years because every time things get hard, she quits. This practice had been passed on from one
generation to another. I think schools should wait until they can at least read and comprehend well.
It seriously released me from feeling like I was failing if they didn’t get it done. In some instances,
the parents are being so harsh to their children. Using high quality texts as a starting point, our
creative and stimulating English plans incorporate grammar teaching in context and offer meaningful
writing opportunities. If we were to sit down at our child’s 18th birthday and watch the actual story
of his or her life, not just the highlight reel, how would we feel. The dreaded homework experience is
to have it even during their holidays. I was the one causing way more problems than solutions. I tried
rewards such as (dye-free) gummy bears and stickers. This resource hasn't been reviewed yet To

They will make sure that all proper royalties are paid. Would I have preferred that he didn’t
procrastinate? Yes. If I make homework my responsibility, they will never have an opportunity to
learn how to recover from mistakes. If you want, you can laminate the Homework Plan after it’s

cause them to enter a psych ward or anything, but rewards don’t motivate in the way we think they
do. He needed a BREAK after school, whereas, I wanted to ensure his homework got done so he

In addition, the Japanese school calendar has longer school days, longer school years, longer lunches,
and longer recess periods. Once their children finished homework in school, they managed to give
more homework for their children. From this perspective, we found that homework often disrupts
family life, interferes with what parents want to teach their children, and punishes students in
poverty for being poor. And experts have recently been able to demonstrate that sleep allows brain
cells to “take out the trash” each night, flushing out disease-causing toxins.”. This practice had been
passed on from one generation to another. I was the one causing way more problems than solutions.
As mentioned above, have your child prioritize and pick what is hardest first. For example, we have
one son who requires external stimulation. It seems impossible for the students to experience this.
Rather than defending the practice of homework, educators should direct national discussion to more
important issues. And if she wants your help come up with a time and parameters making sure it’s
still her responsibility. It is a quick read, and all teachers should be familiar with the arguments

because teaching life skills to our kids while they are young and in our safe environment is what
parenting is all about to me. We definitely have struggles with our 7 year old and homework. I would
sit right next to him repeating myself over and over again. Educators should help parents and
politicians understand how an overemphasis on testing will result in one-dimensional learning.
Teachers wonder, Did the students do their own work. Professional educators need to design

that you really want to purchase this partial sheet music. If you are in school currently or were with
in the past 20 years I suggest you read this fine piece of non fiction. Overall I enjoyed pausing to

morning. After reading through what many of the professionals and experts had to say, this is the
conclusion I came to. If so, let’s come up with time so I can plan around it.”. This book definitely
lays off of the overblown tug at your heartstrings homework sob stories, which is a plus. I think the
educational system in most countries should rethink things and consider what they do to the children.
