My fellow students, we are gathered here today to talk about a problem that affects us all. And the problem of which I speak is…homework! Now we all hear the usual moans and groans when the teacher says that we have homework, but tell me honestly, who here actually likes homework? I’ll tell you, no-one! No teenager with a reasonable social life will allow this extra burden to be placed upon them other things, such as school sports, house competitions, school speech nights, and other such school functions already occupy 60% of our time.
In resent studies by a well known expert, students lives were divided into five simple – but similarly related – aspects. They are as follows;
– 80% of a students week is devoted to school life
– [20% of which is home work based]
– 2.5% is spent doing things with families
– 2.5% is spent focused on religious activities
And
– 15% is spent on out-side-of-school social activities
But can our generation afford to live like this? No, we cannot! We need freedom; we need options. Not only are the above statistics true, but, it is also scientifically proven that attendance in schools would increase by about 80% if students did not have to do homework. In Sydney, a school was brave enough to try a no homework policy. They found that, not only had students benefited from the no homework policy, but teachers too had benefited from no-longer having to stress out and constantly check up on homework being done.
The Essay on To What Extent Should High School Students Be Allowed To
To What Extent Should High School Students be allowed to Exercise Freedom of Speech While on Campus I think that nowadays to deal with an issue of students free speech rights is a tough problem for High School administrators. The matter is that students free speech is protected by the First Amendment. Thus it means that students are allowed to exercise free speech while on campus. But what should ...
Another bonus that was observed, was that of the teacher-student relationship. They had become significantly better, and both students and
teachers alike had felt that there was less hostility and friction felt in the classroom. All around everyone felt happier because of the no homework policy.
The woman who invented homework, was a woman who (in her spare time), liked to come up with different kinds of cruel and unusual punishment, which she would then proceed to dish out on her unwary students. She was incidentally a maths teacher, who’s mind was full of disturbing, sadistic, and hateful plots to make her students suffer of course. She did if I remember correctly, live out the remainder of her life in an insane asylum.
But my friends not to worry, a new era is dawning. The era of homework is over. Its time, for a new era. Its time to push forward into an era of freedom, an era of hope, and change. We must show the world what a waste of time homework is and. So remember, homework is a waste of time, and should be banned! You must begin it, so start today!
