Homework is a problem. Students should not have to do it. Homework causes anxiety, it does not affect grades, and homework gets in the way of after school activities.

First of all, homework causes anxiety. Teachers are always piling more and more homework on us. It can be very stressful. Some students struggle with homework and they can’t get help from their parents. Homework causes kids anxiety and then they are not happy. Homework is not worth all the stress some kids have to go through.

Secondly, homework does not affect grades. In a debate from Debate.org someone said, “The average seven hour school day is more than enough time to learn.” Some students are in situations where they don’t even do homework or their parents do it for them. Studies have shown that homework doesn't really do anything for kids, except cause more anxiety and stress. Homework does not affect grades

Finally, homework gets in the way of after school activities. If students aren't stuck doing hours of homework, then they could get a job or do something to help the community. Many students have things they do after school, such as sports or music lessons. With all the homework we get, they stay up very late trying to get it all done. It also takes away from family time. In the article “Should Schools Ban Homework” it says, “Students need between six to seven hours of fresh air and sunshine.” Homework get in the way of after school activities.

Therefore, let it be resolved that homework should be banned from schools. Students should not have to do it. It causes anxiety, it does not affect grades, and homework gets in the way of after school activities. Let’s face it: no one likes homework. I so move.
