Homework

 We all hate homework. And most of us think it is pointless. The truth is homework is very helpful. If teachers never gave homework most of us would fail the tests. Homework is a guide of what is going to be on the test. Even though we think homework is a waste of our time, it actually is not. If you don't study for your test and do the homework, when you take your test you know some of the answers to the questions because the same questions were given on the homework. In a way homework is like an extra study guide. My advice is always do your homework. Homework is never pointless. It is extra practice and if teachers didn't give homework and made it optional, most students would not do it. When the test comes and the students complain to the teacher about the test being to hard, then the teacher tells the students that the questions are straight from the homework and the test should be easy because they SHOULD have done there homework. Only then do the students think that they should have done their homework and wish a little that the homework was mandatory so they have no choose but to do it.

  1. That is very true about homework being directly related to questions on the tests. I think then best examples of that being true are in math classes, especially in High school. I didn't do much homework in math and as expected did poor on the tests, but sure enough when I would go over the test and compare it to the homework, they would be pretty much the same.
