This is from the “excessive homework” clause of the US Constitution.
Fitting, no Algebra, no homework, anything that might upset their day is racist. They won’t know how to read, to any math, nothing. Dumbing down American youth is okay since we are bring in tens of millions to replace them.
Not really. Much homework these days is busy work. Studying is different, and if students and parents care about getting the most out of school time will be set aside for that.
Does it require a state wide ban. Nope. Any homework policy should be a decision by the school district with input from parents.
Are you sure this isn’t an article from the Bee???
There is a surfeit of useless homework. There are students who need more homework. Those things said, doing it at the state level is not likely to be at all helpful. Probably not even if the state was Wyoming.
It's been happening for decades. Exception-if you're from an Asian or Jewish family.
Schools have 6 or 7 hours per day to educate students. If that’s not enough time, get better teachers.
Ahem.
Fat dumb and stupid is no way to go thru life son. But laws are now requiring it. Extra points if your high out of your mind all the time.
Maff is hard!
It’s easier to indoctrinate and control a populace that’s uneducated…especially if they think they are educated.
I just spent 3 hours doing 20 minutes of Math homework with my daughter, very stressful on me not to slap her after the 10th time I told her the same thing. And this is only 4th grade math.
No I don’t blame the school, teacher or program. I am actually mostly content with the instruction. But even my wife that said I too hard on the daughter could recite what I was telling the daughter for the 20+ time.
So far the only issue I have with her math is them saying use a picture to figure your answer. I haven’t come to enlightenment with that as I only have a BS in Math.
Not The Bee?
Schools have 6 or 7 hours per day to educate students. If that’s not enough time, get better teachers.
But in any case, contrast the idea of this law with how schools work in Japan. First of all, their school year is 240 days vs 180 days in the U.S. They go to school 5 1/2 days per week. And after school, most kids go to what are called ‘cram’ schools so that they can get into good high schools. Cram schools are at least a couple of hours in the evening and they too give out homework.
When they get home, they work on homework. They saying goes something like this, “Going to bed before midnight leads to failure”.
Am I advocating such a regime for American kids? Absolutely not. Completely different cultures. But the trend should be to require more of our students rather than less.
The movie ‘Idiocracy’ was not meant to be a guidebook.
That’s part of the plan.
What they need to pass is a bill saying “toughen up, sunshine, and stop acting up and out”.
Most Asian mothers I know seek out extra homework for their kids.
it will just dumb-down public school kids/minorities even more
“Maff is hard!” Not only that but Maff is racist.
