Some people believe that school children should not be given homework by their teachers whereas others argue that homework plays an important role in the education of children. Discuss both views and give your opinion

While some think that giving

homework

to

school

children is unimportant, others consider assignments to be a crucial aspect of children's education. In my own view,

homework

is essential as it improves children's retention and their performance at

school

tremendously. From one point of view, people think the extra tasks given to children from

school

hinder them from taking up their responsibilities at home.

In other words

, when children are overburdened with assignments, they have little or no time to assist their parents in the house.

For instance

, a child who is supposed to do the dishes after

school

may fail to do so because there is an assignment to complete.

This

may suggest to children that it is okay to do the right things at the wrong time or ignore some responsibility for another.

Therefore, children

who spend too much time on

have little chance to rest and may suffer some form of

. From another point of view, it is believed that children who receive assignments from their teachers have more retention of what they have been taught and excel at

school

. I agree with

this

opinion which can be linked to the saying that practice makes perfect. It is a known fact that regular exercise of an activity leads to higher proficiency in it. So children who undertake extra schoolwork become more proficient with a higher tendency to do better in their studies.

In addition

to

this

, some children only learn when they are in their comfort zones or being taught by people they are emotionally attached to

such

as their parents.

This

way, a child who was unable to grasp a concept in the classroom have the opportunity to understand the topic at home when he is guided by a parent. To summarise, despite varying opinions on the importance of

homework

to the education of

school

children, I think that assignments are very essential in helping children to practice more what they have been taught in the classroom and develop a higher level of proficiency in their schoolwork.
