Why homework is a student’s worst nightmare📚✏


This is my first piece of persuasive writing for this term to convince you we should never have homework.


Why homework is a student’s worst nightmare📚✏


“Homework is super helpful in our education and it is so much fun’’ said no kid ever. Today I am talking about homework, how it drives you insane, or in other words...  a student's worst nightmare. So strap in because homework is coming to an end.

I feel that having lots of homework is not the best. Well in my opinion. After getting home from a long day at school, homework is the last thing we want to do. Firstly we might have some sort of sport after school. Maybe music or places to be. We need to let our brain relax, chill and rest. It's fine to read before bed or when we wake up in the morning, but having lots of that deadly spelling words and math will surely make us stressed.

Sure it might help us with our education but that is what school is for. It's good to have a break from being at school for 6 hours!! On Friday the 26th of July {the day to hand our homework in } only 14 students out of 27 handed their homework in. That shows that kids really don't their homework and desperately don't want to do it. Why make us do it if we don't even think or go near it. Mum and Dad are not huge fans of homework. Yeah, they do want a good education for me but getting home for work, meetings then having to cook dinner,  homework is the last thing they want to do. It's not about being lazy it is about fitting it into our schedule.

Research says that homework can affect and cause a student’s physical and mental health problems. A study by Stanford University shows that 56% of homework is a primary source of stress. Too much homework can cause lack of sleep. Headaches, exhaustion and weight loss.
A student says “homework is pointless, and I don't get why we do it cause no one does it anyway. ”

In other words, we should tone down homework or stop it because it’s surely not helping our education, home life or letting our brains chill.
