One of the most common things that you will see a student do is complain about how much homework they have to complete. Although completing the work may seem dreadful, it provides many countless life skills that will prove indispensable in the future when they are working adults. Completing homework develops skills such as time management, prioritizing work, and work ethic. The former is one of the most useful skills anyone can have, and will help in college, work, and beyond. However, the main reason for the existence of homework is because teachers cannot teach all the material in the short amount of time that is available. Since school only takes up 7 hours of the day, teachers cannot fully explain the complete material to students. Because of the short time period in which teaching can be done, the only way to ensure that students actually learn what the teacher is helping them learn is that they do some work themselves at home. If there was no homework, kids would only play after school and would forget everything that they were taught, this cycle would repeat itself endlessly and would impair students to face the challenges ahead. Homework also helps with exams and tests, because it is a way for the student to comprehend what the subject at hand is, thus being much more prepared for the test. Although it has its invaluable benefits, homework, just like anything else, is bad in excess. Whenever the amount of work interferes with a student's sleep and ability to do leisure activities, there is a problem. An immense amount of work can eliminate all of a student's motivation to do the work, simple because of the amount of time that is consumed. Nevertheless, when the pros and coons are weighed, homework is still a essential part of the development of children who will one day become working adults.
