school homework

whats the deal with all the homework? i mean homework helps us learn the material but do we really need five hours of homework every night. also in some classes im just told to do an assignment and i have no idea what its about. i wouldnt care if i had a lot and knew how to do it, but having a lot and no clue what its about gets me frustrated and confused. then when you turn all that assignment in the teacher says heres some more and its due friday. Ok thanks Mr./Mrs. ... can you give a little heads up on what im doing. i dont really have a big problem with homework but when i dont know whats going on i begin to have a problem.

Andrew.. nice first blog “What’s for dinner?” Seriously, I mean it and feel the same way. This blog “school homework” is also good. You have a lot of good points and state them all very nicely. I swear these days more and more teachers do the whole “Let’s-not-tell-the-students-what-the-test-is-about” or “Let’s-assign-homework-to-do-with-nothing-in-the-chapter” more and more lately! Oh well, what can we do... nothing, right?

Andrew. I completely agree with you on your views of homework. It sucks and should be shot. Teachers who assign a lot should put themselves in our shoes. We have after school activities and on top of that their assignments. I will never understand why they do what they do but I guess it's their jobs to keep us working.
