Yes I do think students should have homework. But we should only have like 4 or 3 to do at night because homework helps you think on your own and to much when the students do it they get tired of doing it and they will just say screw it and not do it or guess. Me and my sister play school and I have noticed she does not like doing that much work so I give her activities like on Because Of Winn-Dixie she has never seen the movie so I her to read a chapter a day and when she got done I let her see the movie. But she got tired of reading the book and she said she read it because on top of that I gave her 2 math worksheets. So my opinion is that we should have some but not that much. M'Lani I think we should have a little less than what you said because we just need enough to understand it. When you explained that you play school with your sister I did not get your point. You said that if she that when she would not read you would give assignments. It sounds like you are saying that we should give homework if we don't do something. This was good but I think there should be more reasons about homework I did not really get it. You should also explain about you and your sister better because I did not really get that. I just thought I would tell you about my opinion it was good I just did not really agree or understand.

I do not think we should have homework at all. Because we do a lot of schoolwork and work really hard and can drain the energy out of our brains and make us exhausted and tired. And then when we get home all we want to do is sleep and we can not because of homework so I say no to homework!!!!!!! Jackie I disagree with you on this. Homework can be draining, exhausting and make us tired but homework can really help you on your grades. Especially if you have a bad grade in a class and you need to bring it up a little, that homework will really help you get that grade up/pass the point you want it to be. But I also think we shouldn't have to much homework, but a little so we can get it done and not worry about having to get it done for the next day So yes I think we should have homework .

I think we should have no homework is my opinion. But we should have to do a lot of work in class and that way we can not forget it at school or at home. the teachers should have every body have a worksheet in stead of homework. because homework is rough on the parents to because if the kid dose not understand then the parent dose not ether and then you will still lose recess for not understanding the homework. But one paper would be ok for the week and then I would not have rushing problems and get a bad grade especially when I have like 3 pages of homework at a time and a night. I would rather the a quiz than a 3 pages of homework every night.I would rather have have 1 page of homework a night for the week than 5 pages a night for one day. I disagree. Students should have a decent amount of homework. One or two papers a week is not nearly enough. Yes we go over stuff in class but homework is to show the teacher we understand it without asking a question every 5 minutes. Homework can help students grades a lot! I don't know about you but when I can work in complete silence at home I usually do a lot better! When we work at school I feel like I'm on a time limit and I normally have to rush and get things done. At home I can take all the time I need. You said homework can be rough on the parents and kids if both don't understand how to do the work but that's why we go over it in class. Everyone has different opinions but personally I think homework is a great choice!

I think Homework is good because the way that the teacher teaches things may not click as much as much as if your parents teach a way to do it. But homework can be bad too. Like if I got a bunch of homework that day and I have to go to My baseball or football game or whatever and have to get my homework done really quick and it gets in the way of things. I think they should still have homework just not as much. I think they should have homework about one time a week. Not everyday. I always have to go somewhere or do something a couple days of the week and I always have to hurry and get my homework done real fast. I think that they shouldn't grade our homework either. That's not showing how much we know. When i'm doing homework usually I always have someone check or help me on it. That's not showing how much I know. But I guess I do learn from my mistakes. So homework is good and bad. I play baseball just like you but the best way to get your homework done before baseball is to do it when you get of the bus or when you get home that way you are ready for baseball. I like to play baseball but if I don't get my homework done I can't go to practice. I think we should have a little bit more of homework so we can raise our grade but if you have a B or above I think you should not have homework.

I think that we should have homework, it can in prove your grade, you may not have peace and quiet in class. You could have people at your table that won't stop talking, so you can never get your work done.I think we should at least have three pages in each class that are not due tell Friday.Sometimes your parents can explain better too.Sometimes I can learn things from my parents that the teachers didn't say that help me understand.There is a lot of school work but most people don't really get it. That's why I disagree.

And then when we get home all we want to do is sleep and we can not because of homework so I say no to homework!!!!!!! I'm sorry but I have to disagree. I thank that homework is a great chance to under stand what you are working on in class because a lot of things happen in class and it is hard to stay focus. Having homework gives us a chance to understand what we are learning about so we can use our learned skills to help us in life. That doesn't mean we should have a stack of homework that reaches outer space but we should have at least two hours of homework every week just to help us understand. We have to remember that most of the jobs in the world need a good education. That's why I thank we should have homework.

And then when we get home all we want to do is sleep and we can not because of homework so I say no to homework!!!!!!! I think that sixth graders should have homework. I think we should because what if someone can not work as well in some classes? So if you have homework you know that you would be in a quiet environment and could ask as many questions as you want at your own house! But I do think 10 papers and a essay is way to much! I think 1 paper is good enough just to keep our brains in the loop! Because if you get a 10 mins. lesson over something and you have a test over it the next day at least I would want some homework to understand it more so I wouldn't flunk the test! I get why some people say no to homework. Probably because you are involved in a lot of sports, clubs, church, or you are just busy! But do they start right after school? Probably not so right when you get home you can go to work! Or even try to get it done in braves period and you can also ask questions to help you if your stuck! Like I said I don't want to much, but I also don't want none so just enough homework I think is perfect! And that is why I think sixth graders should have homework!

I think that students should have little homework. Because sometimes students have sports or things they have to do when they get home. Sometimes homework is a big problem for students. My opinion is students should only have math homework. But know homework on Fridays so we students get the weekend off without worrying about homework and getting in trouble for not doing the homework. Homework helps because maybe we as in the students do not understand what they are doing in that subject and the homework helps them understand it more. Homework hurts because some people have sports practices, after school band rehearsals, or they plans for that night and they will not get back till later that night. I some what understand why teachers give homework. I think they give homework to make sure the students understand what they are teaching or the teachers think it would be fun for the students. But sometimes it is NOT fun. Sara I think we such have lot of homework because think you could have homework on the weekend and then think if you do lot of homework then you are going to go to a good college and get a great job.Then you will have a great life so I think you such have lot of homework but it is like this if you read 3 hours then you get a A in Mr. McGuire then like I said you will have a great life. But if you little homework then it will be like here your 1 page for the week that not right because you want to be learning lot so you can be so smart so that is why you such have lot of homework not little because you want to LEARN !!!!! well I hope you get what I was saying.

Because it is good for our brain and then we can get into good colleges and get a really good job. I think that if we do get homework and then we would get good grades to. Plus the amount of homework we have now is perfect. So that is why I think we should have homework.

I think we should only get very few homework assinments because we usually we go over it in class.Also some kids have sports and it makes it hard to do homework.I also think we should have a lot a homework in sixth grade because this year set's are life up because if you have good grade's you take advance classes in seventh and eighth grade then high school then collage.So the more homework we get the more grades we get the better chance we have to get good grades.Also we will get a good job when we grow up. I don't mean to be rude but if we had very few assignments. It just would not be the same I mean spaced out assignments are okay with me but if you get to much of it at the same time. It's not exactly the easiest thing for people if you know what I'm saying really maybe. We can more assignments just space them out. I love reading homework L.A. is my favorite class and science I wish we could have more science homework.

I think we need two or three sheets of homework so we could understand the concept little more. So if we understand the concept better then you could become better at the subject. If the parent understand the homework then they could help you understand it and you get a good grade on the homework. If you get a good grade on the homework then you could bring up your grade in that class. If the parent does't understand the homework then you should give it your best effort and at least try the homework. Some people keep their grade up just by doing their homework. I think at least we should have two or three sheets of homework a night.

I think students should have homework but not too much. Not too much that it makes your backpack weigh 500 pounds, just enough to make you remember what to do. I hate when teachers tell me that if I don't get it done in class that I have to take it home, and then give 2 pages of nothing but spelling or multiplying, stuff that we already know . I think if it is something we already have down, don't give homework for it. It's kind of weird. Like I don't even have to ask my parents to check it! For example, usually in the HALLWAY we usually have to read, and occasionally study for a science test or a math sheets. Nothing that important. We always have reading homework. Mr. McGuire says that we have to at least read 15 minutes 4 times. Mrs. Hardin usually teaches good enough in class that most of us understand it, but if it's a hard subject she gives us homework. Mrs. Webb rarely gives homework. Ms. Huysman gives homework just for test. Or occasionally she gives it to us for information. I only think a little bit of homework is good enough. Not 500 pounds worth, but just right. It's like the 3 bears. The 500 pound is to big. None is too small. Enough is just right! I agree, the only reason my dad calls me "Gollum" is because I have a hunch which, you guessed it, is made by my backpack, and video games (I have a habit of sticking my face to the screen).

I don't think think we should have a lot. Maybe one paper every now and then to help out our grade but come on don't drowned us in homework!!! So yeah I do not think we should have a lot of homework that takes up a lot of time. So like a paper every so often would be good. Like I'm not gonna sit here and act like we should never have homework because we should have a tiny bit. For an example if you have a bad grade and need to get it up homework can really help you out sometimes. So there is my opinion on how much homework we should have. I love this idea because I don't really like homework. But at the same time when I have nothing to do I don't mind homework because I have nothing else to do.

I think we should have homework. We shouldn't have a huge pile of homework we should just have a little bit just the right amount. It helps us get smarter to learn what it's about. Teachers give homework because they want us to understand the problems and the work more. I think that we should have homework. If we didn't have homework we wouldn't understand as much as what were supposed to do. My ideas are that we need to get smarter well yah we get smarter learning at school. If we have homework we take it home and try to understand it more. I hope that everyone feels the same way. This is why I think we should have homework! I totally agree that we should have some homework! Also, I agree that give us homework because they wan't us to understand the work were doing.
