Homework takes over many kids lives at this age and taking something off my schedule would really help. Also, I have a lot of extracurricular activities every day so it is hard to find time to do the homework assigned every night.

So rather than giving geometry homework, maybe we could do a class meeting or other simple activities to do during our class period.

All of us are in at least 4 classes, and most of us have electives like asl, health, pe, etc. Having 6 or 7 classes everyday means we have alot of work. I find myself doing class work and homework from 9am to 4 or 5pm, thats alot of time looking at a screen for one day. Like you, we also like having some freetime. Its nice to be able to lay on the couch and relax after a long day of school. It would be very nice to have a little less work for just one day.

Many of us are so overwhelmed with school starting remotely. We are new to high school AND remote learning. Not to mention all of the after school activities we have that keep us healthy and sane. For example, I have dance tonight from 5-9:30pm. I need to make sure I get enough sleep too! ]]> 2020-08-26 16:02:51 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700308657 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700359566 You shouldn't give us homework tonight because we are already working very hard during they day to get basic assignments done, with homework on top of that, there is way too much work to complete.]]> 2020-08-26 16:16:08 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700359566 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700437876 You shouldn't give us homework tonight because as students, we already have a lot of work from other classes. Being that this is unprecedented times, we're still getting acclimated to the new school year. In addition, more homework for us means more grading for you. ]]> 2020-08-26 16:35:57 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700437876 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700446916 Tonight there shouldn't be homework for many reasons. Most of us have work to complete for all our classes even within the first week of school! It can become stressful  with all the assignments piling up so soon, especially with it being remote learning. Plus, people may have sports util late at night, so if they still do need to finish work it makes them stay up later than usual. For those reasons we should not have homework tonight!]]> 2020-08-26 16:38:07 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700446916 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700447257 You should not give us homework tonight because most of us have extra curricular activities and it would put stress on us. For example, I have a soccer game tonight at 5:30 making it more difficult to find time for homework. Along with this, other classes have homework tonight putting even more stress on students and giving less time to get the work done. For instance, I have to read some of my AP book tonight for homework. In conclusion, students have extra curricular activities along with other classes with homework giving students little time to get work done and also stresses students out. ]]> 2020-08-26 16:38:12 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700447257 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700448676 You shouldn't give us homework tonight because we have many other classes, some of us honors and AP classes, that give us a lot of work too.

One reason is that many of us do extracurricular activities, like sports. We already have a lot of homework from our other classes and we have a sport to be at. It just can put a lot of stress on people to be able to get everything done and get a good nights rest. Another reason is that remote learning is new to all of us and we're still trying to figure everything out.]]> 2020-08-26 16:42:50 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700465449 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700494102 There should be no homework tonight because many people do not have their sleep schedules together. This makes them tired and that means they should have a day without homework to get their sleep schedule back in line.]]> 2020-08-26 16:50:17 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700494102 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700500531 Mrs. Shumate, I heard that you are thinking about giving us homework tonight, and I believe that you should consider not doing so.  We already have a considerable amount of classwork and homework from other classes. If we got any more work, then we wouldn't be able to get a decent amount of sleep because of the workload, which would cause us to be less attentive and would cause our GPA to drop. Students that are in extracurricular activities would get kicked out because of their below-average GPA. ]]> 2020-08-26 16:52:01 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700500531 aarzoob https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700500981 Homework should not be assigned tonight because t
his online learning is a new chapter for everyone recently, there are many more things to figure out and learn, which just adds on to the stress which is already there from school. Right now, we practically have to teach ourselves these subjects from textbooks and without a teacher there to explain to us what exactly we are going to be learning. In addition to that, we also all have other classes and extracurriculars that we are involved in. For example, I have practice today from 4:15-5;30 and it is also my cousin's birthday, meaning as soon as I get home from practice, I need to go celebrate with them, not stress about homework that I need to do when I return home late at night. Less homework means less stress, and less stress means that students are more eager to learn and are more focused. Wouldn't you want happy students who still learn? ]]> 2020-08-26 16:52:09 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700500981 3118733 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700501677 There are a multitude of reasons why you should not give us homework tonight. First of all, we already have so much homework that adding more will just help continue stressing us out. Secondly, most of us do our school work all day, and some of us will work very late, which causes us to be sleep deprived, which can cause a lot more problems that would not be good for us. Third of all, we also need time to relax, for extracurricular activities, and to spend time with our family, which would make us happy and would make us more productive in doing our classwork. Finally, these are my reasons why we should not be given homework tonight. ]]> 2020-08-26 16:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700501677 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700518872 There are many reason why you shouldn't give us homework tonight but here are a couple of reasons why. We are still in the early on stages of trying to figure everything out of how everything works and how we are supposed to do the work online. Some people are also still struggling getting on the sites that we need to use to get the information. Another reason is because there is a lot of stress right now with school and sports for some students and we already have homework from our other classes to that we still are trying to figure out. ]]> 2020-08-26 16:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700518872 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700546772 There are a number of reasons why you, our geometry teacher, should not give us homework tonight. One such reason is very obvious- it is still very early in the school year. Many teachers we all have had in the past did not hand out significant homework assignments during the first week of school. Furthermore, many of us are freshman just entering high school. To give us stacks of homework during the first week of our new, teenage life is not a wise decision. We want to enjoy our year as freshman, even if it is online. That excitement for entering a new school is immediately crushed when we are given homework on the first few days. In addition, online school makes it harder to learn for many students. The key to having a good school year (in 2020) is to not overload the students with the work and pressure of being in online classes. Students get frustrated when they can't understand something and a teacher isn't nearby to help. Therefore, it is best to take it easy on the students and not hand out homework until they are more accustomed to digital learning. In conclusion, if you want to have a successful year of geometry class with students happy to learn online, I would suggest that you shouldn't give us homework tonight. ]]> 2020-08-26 17:04:53 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700546772 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700553803 There shouldn't be homework assigned tonight because we're all coming back from being used to 3 1/2 months worth of not having homework, we're brand new to Geometry so it's going to take a little getting used to, some of us might be struggling with internet problems, or have never used an online textbook so we need to get used to handling that, and because we're all dealing with lots of stress and anxiety that comes, not only with the beginning of a school year, but especially with online school. It's harder to ask you questions too because we can't just come in tomorrow morning and talk to you about it, or talk to another friend about it when you get to school, we have to write an email and the context might be read wrong, or someone will forget to read or respond to it.]]> 2020-08-26 17:06:46 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700553803 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700606922 There shouldn't be any homework tonight because some of us have things to do after the school day. Another reason is we just got back in school so you shouldn't overload us with so much homework as most math classes do. ]]> 2020-08-26 17:20:50 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700606922 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700612815 There are many reasons why we shouldn't get homework tonight. First I'll state the fact that we haven't done anything in 3 and a half months and we are starting up school in a completely different atmosphere which is already stressing enough, not to mention the fact that some kids have problems accessing wifi or connection issues which can cause more stress if something were to malfunction. Second, I believe that it is important to have a certain time for studying and being productive and a time where you can just relax and not have to worry about getting work in to all your classes. Working late nights is another thing (which is what a lot of kids do on the daily) ,due to not understanding content, things taking a long amount of time and thought etc. this takes a lot of mental thinking capacity of a student, and if you have to use it for almost all your classes, it can cause you to get stressed, have headaches, not get a good learning experience, and on top of all that be deprived of sleep. Sleep is one of the most important factors of a healthy mind and body so if you are deprived of that, you could become stressed, tired, lazy, and not have a good start to the day. Lastly, the more students need to sit in front of a screen all day and try to learn completely new things all day, the more unfocused, antisocial, lonely, stressed, bored and even depressed we can get. I want to be able to go outside, or watch a movie with my family before going to sports or any other activities I do. Like teachers and staff we do have a life outside of school so I would like to believe that everyone would like to be able to enjoy it without having to be stressed about turning homework and classwork in. In conclusion, these are all reasons we should not receive homework tonight. Healthy students are happy students. :)]]> 2020-08-26 17:22:24 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700612815 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700626626 Although it may seem tempting, there are a plethora of reason why you shouldn't give your students homework tonight. To start, all of your students are new to this technique of online school. Considering many teachers last year didn't use Schoology, a lot of students are having a hard time figuring out how to submit things and find out where all of their assignments are. Next, not only are students trying to figure out schoology, but so are teachers. By not giving students homework tonight, it will take off a lot of teacher stress by not having to worry about figuring out how to grade the homework. Finally, you shouldn't give us homework tonight because many students have other assignments and lives to work on tonight. Not giving homework would give students more time to finish the assignments they may be behind on.]]> 2020-08-26 17:25:54 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700626626 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700629192 There are quite a few reason why you should not give any of us homework tonight. The first reason why you shouldn't give any of us homework tonight is because some of us have busy schedules that were created by our family or by extracurricular activity organizers so we cannot change them. The second reason why you should not give homework is because the school year has only just begun and some of us may be having struggles with the new technology that we are using, for instance I have never used pallet and it took me a minute to understand how to work this new technology. A third and final reason why you shouldn't give us any homework is because we are already doing all of our work at home!]]> 2020-08-26 17:26:35 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700629192 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700657016 There are a couple of reasons why you shouldn't give us homework tonight. One reason is because it is very early in the school year, and with this completely new learning environment, it's at least twice as hard to keep track of all the work from all of our classes. Another reason is because there are some extracurriculars me and some other students have tonight, and because of COVID, it rare for something like this to happen, and homework would make my participating harder.]]> 2020-08-26 17:34:08 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700657016 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700682525 There are a few reasons why we should not have homework tonight. First, we just got off of summer break. We should be eased into school work before we do homework. Second. some of us are not used to online school yet and it's taking a bit for us to get used to everything. We should do assignments without grades first so we can get used to it. Third, many students have extra curricular activities (me being one of them), and a bunch of homework on top of sports can be overwhelming. That is why we shouldn't have home work tonight. ]]> 2020-08-26 17:41:08 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700682525 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700683878 There are many reasons why you should not give us homework tonight.  One of which being the fact that we are brand new to school.  Students still need time to get used to this year's remote learning experience.  Especially, since we're with completely different teachers.  Since we don't know exactly how all of our teachers organize their classes and schoology isn't the most user-friendly platform to use, we should have more time to get used to this year before being assigned homework.  Jumping right into a new school year, especially while doing everything from home, can be stressful for everyone.  Clearly, we should have more time to get acclimated before being assigned homework.]]> 2020-08-26 17:41:30 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700683878 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700828507 There are many reasons why you should not give us homework tonight, one being that we have had homework the past two days, and we have other classes homework to do. Secondly, many of us have extracurriculars to do, and may not have time. Lastly, it is the start of the school year and we are all just trying to learn how this works, and we don't want to be stressed. These are the reasons we should not have homework tonight. ]]> 2020-08-26 18:22:09 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700828507 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700860803 There are many reasons you should not give us homework tonight. One reason is we have had homework the past 2 nights and we have homework for other classes already. Another reason you shouldn't give us homework is some people have sports or other activities at night that they will have no time to finish everything. Lastly we just started school and are already stressed about being online so having tons of work every night doesn't help.]]> 2020-08-26 18:32:14 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/700860803 3213843 https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/701297448 Heart to heart, there are a lot of reasons as to why you, our teacher, should not give us homework tonight. For one, coursework requires students to put a lot of energy into thinking and organization in order to complete their assignments. With this problem gone in one class, children would have less stress and sleep deprivation that could've hurt their performance the next day. Additionally, it is the beginning of the school year. If more and more homework is to be piled upon kids, they may struggle to adjust from there being no homework to work everyday. Lastly, you could always assign 2 lessons on another date when you believe everyone is more prepared for the extra workload. This way, you could keep up with the curriculum as well. To conclude, please don't give us homework!]]> 2020-08-26 21:42:04 UTC https://padlet.com/shumater1/mq41rdv26p8ny5jm/wish/701297448
