I think that we should have homework because we need homework to learn and to know thinks. I think that we should have some homework on a day and not a lot on another day, because we (I) need time to have a break from homework. Another reason is that some people have sports, clubs and work to do when they get home, so they need a break for homework on some days.
Homework helps us because if you don't understand the homework, you can learn for your mistakes and get better and better from it. I don't think that homework hurts you because homework helps you, NOT hurt you. I think that homework help us because when you understand the homework or school work it comes back to you easier when you need it. I think that teachers give you homework because they want you to learn and pass on the Ohio Achievement Assessment. So they give you homework to pass that BIG test and Ace that BIG test. Or they want you to do better in school and in your job, so it will make school and your job easy and more fun!!!!

I think that sixth grade students should have homework but only a little bit. We should have homework because it helps us learn, get better grades, and understand the subject better. I don't think we should have much homework because the student could be busy, or if they are anything like me, they could get overwhelmed. I know whenever I have a lot of homework, I get overwhelmed and I have a hard time of keeping track of my homework and what I got done. I am also very busy with sports. Sometimes, when I have a lot of homework I have to do it at that sport. It's hard because sometimes I can't miss practices but I have too much homework. I think teachers give homework because they want their students to understand what they are teaching. Another reason why I think they give homework is because they may not have enough time to get whatever assignment they have done in class. I understand why they give out homework but sometimes they go overboard and give way to much. Sometimes I think the teachers give the right amount of homework but each teacher from every class gives us homework and that seems like a lot! I think that if we don't have a lot of homework, it would be so much easier for everyone. It would save time for both teachers and students in my opinion. Having less homework is good because it saves time. Having less homework could be bad because it might not help the student understand. Less homework could also bad because it stops learning about responsibility as much as we need to. I definitely think that if we had less homework it would be better for everyone. It would help me with sports, stop me from being so overwhelmed and I would have more time. Something that might help with less homework is if a teacher has homework planned for the week they should talk with each other and maybe give us homework on different days. That way each teacher gives their homework and it's not too much at a time.

Should 6th graders have homework, do you think so. I think so because they should have to do just as well at home as they do at school. I think kids should get homework for what they didn't get done at school. I also think that kids should at least get some homework because maybe their is nothing to do in your house and you have homework so you have something to do.
If we have to much homework then it might take us a long time. Then we won't finish it then it will lead to missing assignments. So that's why we should not have to much homework because people might have bad grades.

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 agree with you Griffin 6th graders shouldn't have a lot of homework.But we should have more than one paper.We should have about three to four papers every week.And it does help your grade. Teachers give us homework so we can learn.

I think that we should at least have a little bit of homework. But not that much because why take home,homework when you can just learn it at school I mean why do we go to school if we are just going to do stuff work home. If home is a place to do work than school should be a place to sleep. We should only have to do like 1 paper at home. Because we already learn so much at school and have to go through 4 classes home should be our brake from school not be school.
I think it helps people including be to do better in the subject that we are learning. And it also gets us a head start if we completely don't know what we are doing. Like if there is a sub and she or he does not explain it that well then when we take homework home our parents or order brother or sister can explain it to us better.
It kind of hurts me because if I don't get it done then I ether get study table or time on the wall and I hate that. Or if it gets late and I get tired and forget to do it sooner then I have to do it in brave and then I don't get other stuff I need to do done. So we should only have to do a little bit. I think they give homework because they want us know what they are teaching us a lot better than what they taught us.

I agree we should have home work. Your right about the Mount Everest pile. That would be way to much my brain would exploded. One or tow papers is good. If we had a lot of homework we would not have time with our family our what you do.

I think we should have a little bit of homework, but not a lot because if we have a lot we could get unfocused and just give up on it and end getting a bad grade or going to study tables. I think we should have homework because if you are failing school homework can bring up your grade a lot. Homework is a good thing but not if the teachers give you a lot. I think students should have about 30 minutes of homework every two days or so. If you have bad grades homework can bring you up to a passing grade and that is good because everybody wants to pass school. Students who like homework should get more if they want it I mean its there life.

I think we should have homework because it helps us understand what we are talking about in class. Homework is a way to teach us at home so if I was in class I wouldn't want to do a lot so that is why we have homework. We can have a lot of homework or we can have little.
I think teachers give homework because they want there students to know what they are going to talk about the next day. Homework is sometimes good and sometimes bad, like if you had a stack that's not good or if there's not a whole lot that would be okay. I think homework is good because it gives me something to do why I am on the bus or at home.

I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD HAVE HOMEWORK!!!!!!I don't think we should have homework because sometimes we have to do something right after school and we might not get home till late and we have to do are homework late and go to bed late and in the morning you might be late.But it might be good for some people.
I don't think we should have homework because sometimes we have to do something right after school like a doctors appointment and it's far away and they don't get home till late. And if they have homework they will be up late and they wont get much sleep and they might even be late.
I think that it's good for some people to have homework because some peoples parents don't get home till late so it gives them something to do if they have nothing to do.And it might help them learn more if they work at home with no destination.
So we should have at least a little bit of homework so were not up late or were not board.Homework is okay I guess but I don't like it that much but some people do.

In this passage below I will be putting my thoughts and opinions about homework. Enjoy!!!
I personally like homework! That is because it helps you better understand your school work. Plus it's good for the body and the mind. It can help in many ways. It also improves the chance for us students to get good grades and get into a good college. Sometimes it gives something to do at home. But the really important reason is because it's FUN!!!
Sixth grade students should at least get two pages of homework for every subject. Including art, and music. We shouldn't get tons of homework but we should get a good amount of it. Not to much but not to little. Just right!
Teachers give students homework so we better understand the class work we're given. They also give us homework so we don'y forget how do whatever we were learning about in class.
I mean it doesn't harm us in any way to do homework. If any thing it helps us in many ways. Such as we can better understand what were doing in school and so we can remember what were doing.
That is my opinions and thoughts on why we should get homework. Thanks for reading!!!!

Intro: Today in the reading workshop our teacher has us write what we think about homework. I think negative about it don't know if anybody thinks positive. I would be surprised. Anyway here's some examples.
I do not like homework because I could be on my phone or doing something I want to do. I think we should only have one paper and that's it because it waste time and if you have homework and you have to go somewhere you get into trouble at school. Then your parents will be mad because you got an bad grade on that paper.
It will help because I wouldn't have a lot of homework to do and I wouldn't have to get in much trouble by the teacher for not doing it. It would hurt because we would get really bad grades and get grounded by our parents if you didn't do your homework at school. Then your parents will yell at you every day when you come home from school until the next month or so.

Home is suppose to be are Free time. No grade should have it. If you don't know our from are and where to put periods it seems like you need more homework to me. These are basic skills taught in second or third grade. If you want your opinion to be considered, maybe you need to improve your editing skills.

Should students have homework? I think we do need homework. I think we should have homework to make us learn. I don't think we should have a lot of homework. I think we should at least have some every night or every other night. I don't think we should have so much that we are just sitting there doing it for 4 hours straight.Why I think we should have homework. I think we should have homework because It helps me learn better.It helps because if I don't really get something in a class homework helps me get a better perspective of it. How does it hurt? I don't think it hurts. The only time it hurts is when I have softball practice. That's only on Fridays but I also have basketball practice every Wednesday. I was always told if I don't do my homework I have to sit out and watch till the practice is over or the games are over.I think teachers give us homework because they want to make sure everyone knows what's going on. If they didn't give me homework I would be failing all my classes. Like in math if they didn't give me homework I probably wouldn't know what's going on. I think home work is a good thing. I'm glad they give us homework.I use to not do my homework when I was in 4th grade and then I realized I was failing. So I did take school more seriously and it helped a lot. I do my homework all the time now because I hate looking at my grades and seeing a C. That is the worst. That's why I think we should have homework so if you have a bad grade in a class homework will help you bring it up. I mean homework isn't the most fun thing to do but I think I need it to help me learn. Homework is okay to do but if I'm bored I will pull out a piece of paper and I will write down stories or I will write down math problems if I don't get something that we did in class that day. I do that regardless if we homework that night or not. It always helps me. That's all I have to write about thank you for reading bye

I think that a 6th grade student should have 2 pages of homework a night because I think that it is reasonable and because of sports and family occasions and I'm totally against weekend homework! I think homework on the weekends is ridiculous because we go to school all week and we get tired. WE NEED A BREAK!!!! I think that when you are bad that you should get more homework because that's a punishment and you deserve it. That's how much homework that a 6th grader should have!
