The benefits of homework is that it improves your memory and thinking. It also helps studying skills and habits that will remain throughout your life. It teaches students to work independently and take responsibility for their work. Homework also helps students use school resources like textbooks, the library, or computers. It also helps students understand and practice what they have learned in class. Homework teaches students about time management and the importance of staying organized and taking action. Homework also helps parents understand what their kid is learning in school. According to Time Magazine, students who are in the seventh through twelfth grade who do their homework do better in school. Time Magazine also says that homework improves your \u00a0attitude toward school, self-discipline, and inquisitiveness. \u201c I think homework helps with commitment, self motivation, growth, and prioritizing,\u201d says Alex. \u00a0He has either Math, Music Theory, or English homework. It is usually one to two assignments a day. &#8220;I do think homework is stressful, especially when I do not get or understand a subject it is very nerve- racking, however our Math Dept. is very open to helping their students,\u201d says Alex \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many different reasons why homework is bad for you.&#8221;I don&#8221;t like homework because it takes up my free time and you just got out of school and then you have to go \u00a0home and do school-work,\u201d says Anna Smith. Instead of spending time with family or friends and relaxing when they get home, they have to do homework. Another reason is they usually do it the night before and they stay up all night until two in the morning doing it. Some kids do the homework the day the teachers tell them or give it to them, but also it might be hard and you stay up all night doing it. It can also stress students out because they might think that they might fail the assignment given to them. To some students homework can be unimportant. Time Magazine says that homework causes students physical and emotional fatigue and negative attitudes towards learning. \u00a0&#8220;I get about three pages of homework from either all my classes or just one,&#8221; says Smith.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next time you have \u00a0homework think about the benefits it has for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Searcy (LP) High schoolers, middle schoolers, and elementary kids mostly hate homework.
