there isn't a reason for homework i think school should be done at school not at home parents pay the school to make sure everything done at school not at home

1/24/2024 06:45:24 pm

I disagreed on you saying that homework shouldn't be done during school. There are many people have a different endorsements fields like being in a medical field they have to study it's a good thing about to learn something new to get more knowledge.

A, Martinez 6B
1/26/2024 10:21:13 am

That makes sense, but as you said in your response they study. Studying is completely different from homework.

I agree school work should be done in school, but homework can help with your learning skills. WE have to be able to learn on our own.

Jadian rivers

I disagree with this bc yea it’s supposed to help with learning skills but it really don’t because people be have other things to worry about other then just school

Smith N 3a

I disagree although school work should be done in school that doesnt mean homework still cant be beneficial

Zeneida Diaz

I agree, homework can be beneficial, it encourages you to think on your own and challenge your mind.

Diaz Z 1A

I agree, school work should be done at school.

Nicholas Parker 7B
1/25/2024 11:44:07 am

I agree with you, there should be no reason for homework if the teacher plans time correctly it should be done in class.

A Bethany 7b
1/25/2024 01:41:20 pm

I don't agree, homework can be beneficial for retaining information outside of school.

C Valdez 1A
1/25/2024 02:47:26 pm

I think homework has a reason for helping students get used to doing assignments at home. Homework gets students used to sparing time for assignments and taking time out of their day to finish it. I think homework is good for making students used to being able to do assignments at home as well because it's something that's needed in the future and getting used to it earlier is easier than later.

Albiar X
1/26/2024 12:26:54 pm

i can agree with this i think schoolwork should be done at school because thats what you go there for unless if you didnt finish the assignment in time

Diaz z 1A
1/27/2024 07:52:55 am

I disagree , I feel like if your really about your education you will make time somewhere through your your day to finish work or homework outside of school. It’s all about having your priorities straight. Had to re write this

L Speed 1A
1/26/2024 12:54:48 pm

I agree school work should only be in school because not everyone has the time at home

Zeneida Diaz
1/27/2024 07:51:09 am

It is your job to get things done in school, but isn't always the case. Without homework you are prone to lose memory of how to work things out. Your job as the student is to learn on your own.

R. Brown 7B
1/26/2024 10:27:57 pm

Homework is definitely helpful in the sense that it pushes you to be responsible for the things you learn. It’s what helps build great leaders.

Hernandez A. 4A
1/27/2024 10:49:53 am

This comment may be right about not doing homework at home,but if you focus on doing the work at school then you don't do it at home.

L Vargas 1A
1/24/2024 03:42:20 pm

Although i can see why people might hate homework i think it is beneficial and the reason being it can prove on what you know and also help you improve on the subject.

Shankle,A 1A
1/24/2024 06:52:27 pm

Yes I agreed on doing homework at home its helps you to get more knowledge on your homework assignments.

Nox (Katelyn) Sears 8B
1/24/2024 08:17:24 pm

Very true it can make an impact on your learning. It can help you remember key things.

Smith N 3a
1/25/2024 08:58:35 am

I agree, the extra practice that the homework provides can help improve your understanding on the certain topic

C. Deane 6B
1/25/2024 11:27:00 am

I disagree with you, because if teachers want you to get better at a subject and its so important then why don't they help you in school. Seems to be the more logical thing to do.

A Bethany 7b
1/25/2024 01:42:39 pm

I agree, definitely in the sense that students forget information if they don't focus on it more than once. Homework to me is like studying.

A,Martinez 7B
1/25/2024 01:43:24 pm

I agree, as we must be able to take what we learn and apply it in other situations.

Amalio Garcia 1A
1/26/2024 08:49:59 am

Ima have to agree with you Mr.Luis, many may hate the homework but it does have it benefits for your brain.

A, Martinez 6B
1/26/2024 10:22:50 am

You say homework is benificial, but it's a fact that just about every student maybe even you just go home and ask google for the anwsers so there truly is not benifit

Johnson M 1A 2
1/26/2024 12:59:49 pm

It is a great way to build memory. Say you have a test and there’s a question that you’re stuck on. You can try to remember how to work it by thinking back on lessons and homework that you have done in the past.

R. Brown 7B
1/26/2024 10:26:38 pm

See thank you a non ignorant answer. Homework teaches your brain to actually think for itself. So then you won’t be struggling as much if you didn’t have homework at all.

K Jacinto 3A
1/26/2024 10:39:27 pm

I agree having homework builds habits and allows you to solve problems on your own.

M Roberson 8B
1/26/2024 11:49:12 pm

I agree with what you said. I also said the same thing. Homework can help you improve on the subject you're working on.

Shankle,A 1A
1/24/2024 06:28:32 pm

Yes, homework is beneficial from learning new knowledge and trying to get a under standing on your assignment. Many people would make some mistakes on wrong answers if they have trouble to solve or analyze in short and sweet words to get an understanding on the homework. It's better to see when you increased your own knowledge what you learn during class.

Contreras M 6B
1/26/2024 06:01:09 pm

I agree with you because homework is beneficial. It helps students learn and understand the topics. As well as teaching them that their work is their responsibility.

K Jacinto 4A
1/26/2024 10:41:27 pm

I agree, it’s very good for understanding

Gibb M 1A
1/29/2024 09:14:57 am

i agree it is very beneficial it does help you not make mistakes. and it does increase your knowledge.

Nox (Katelyn) Sears 8B
1/24/2024 08:16:45 pm

Is homework beneficial , yes it is, but do I think all work should be done in school, also yes. But I see why we have homework. To help us study and be able to learn and remember on our own. Not everything can be feed to us anymore. We have to grow up.

A,Martinez 7B
1/25/2024 01:45:28 pm

I agree, I believe that we benefit from having homework. The more we practice what we learn the the more we can apply it.

C Valdez 1A
1/25/2024 02:39:12 pm

I agree, homework can be beneficial because it gets us used to being able to do classwork at home. Homework is a good way of getting used to studying outside of school without assistance. Even though I think homework is beneficial I think most work should be done in school and that homework shouldn't take up time outside of school.

Natalee Sears 7B
1/26/2024 07:21:04 am

I agree, homework can help us learn on our own without a teacher that is going at a pace that may be too slow or too fast for certain people.

Smith N 3a
1/25/2024 08:48:55 am

I think homework is beneficial because the extra practice can really help gain a better understanding in the specific topic

C Da Silva 1A
1/25/2024 11:57:24 am

I somewhat agree because if it's something that you are struggling on the extra practice could help you improve. If it's anything other than that I do think it's pointless because you're just doing something you already know how to do for no reason.

Spencer .S. 1A
1/25/2024 08:49:42 am

Is Homework beneficial? I feel like if we doing work in class but we don't get it done then it should be homework. We have enough time in class to be able to do all the work. But i also feel like the work that we do should be took home to study.

E Martinez 1A
1/25/2024 10:05:50 am

homework could be beneficial because it gives you a chance to study and learn more about the topic and strengthen your chances of getting better grade on test or quiz

Nicholas Parker 7B
1/25/2024 11:40:41 am

I completely disagree with you, homework is not beneficial.

C. Deane 6B
1/25/2024 11:22:57 am

I don't think its beneficial because it usually goes over what we already learned in class. And then have only half the students turn it in, and then that also gives teachers with extra work, grading papers, and teachers think that some of us students just have all the time in the world, saying we are just kids and don't have real responsibilities.

Albiar X
1/26/2024 12:29:25 pm

i can agree with this i dont think school shouldnt be worked on outside of school unless you dont finish it during class and it could stack up for the teachers to grade

Spencer .S. 1A
1/26/2024 01:21:26 pm

I agree, most people not going to do it anyways so it would be pointless to waste all of our times.

A Bradley 6B
1/28/2024 03:51:09 pm

I do agree that it can be very time consuming sometimes, but it still does have other benefits like being able to finish things you weren't able to in class or refreshing your mind on the topic.

NIcholas Parker 7B
1/25/2024 11:33:01 am

No i do not think homework is beneficial, we do school work and test at school not at home. it is pointless to do it at home because for me i will forget about it and never touch it.

C Da Silva 1A
1/25/2024 11:54:05 am

I agree because sometimes we have better things to do when were at home. A lot of the homework we do is also pointless, sometimes it's just things that we forget right after finishing the homework.

Spencer .S. 1A
1/26/2024 01:24:49 pm

I agree, if we didn't learn it in class what makes people think we gone take it home and learn it or do it

C Da Silva 1A
1/25/2024 11:52:19 am

I don't think homework is beneficial. The work we do at school is enough, a lot of students have other things to do after school so it's not always fair for them to get homework. It can also be time consuming for some people.

L Speed 1A
1/26/2024 12:56:27 pm

I agree we get enough work at school why would we want more at home that's where we go to take our minds off of school

A Bethany 7b
1/25/2024 01:33:25 pm

Homework is beneficial in the idea that students should continue to retain information outside of school. But when school homework is excessive it causes students to stress which leads to procrastination, and loss of motivation.

kanye lombardo 7b
1/25/2024 01:50:33 pm

yes i feel the same way about home work for kids

Natalee Sears 7B
1/25/2024 01:38:26 pm

Homework is beneficial because we all need to be accountable for doing work on our own. Not everything in life is going to be spoon fed to you, you have to learn how to do things yourself. Homework allows people to do work at their own pace, with their own knowledge, and it helps a teacher know if the student is understanding the assignment.

C, Ramirez 3A
1/26/2024 05:12:53 pm

Teachers usually don't make the homework they give to us they get it off the internet, so are they not doing their own work? So are teachers being spoon fed? Also, whats the point of school work then, isn't for the teachers to see that we are undertanding what they are teaching us? Isnt that why we take quizzes and exams to test are knowledge and show what we know?

A,Martinez 7B
1/25/2024 01:40:30 pm

Although students may not like doing homework, we can all benefit from doing it. We should be able to learn the material at school, and practice what we learn at home to show our understanding of said topic.

M evbuomwan
1/25/2024 11:59:35 pm

I agree it can help you understand more

Natalee Sears 7B
1/26/2024 07:22:12 am

I agree with this because we can take what we learned during the day and show that we understand it by doing homework.

D Davis 6B
1/26/2024 05:19:49 pm

I agree, doing homework can help you understand concepts you didn't get before.

D Costilla 4A
1/26/2024 05:58:44 pm

I also believe homework is beneficial to us and that we should learn it at home. That way we can get good at a certain subject and not forget it so easily.

kanye lombardo 7b
1/25/2024 01:45:01 pm

yes homework is an essential to a students education and should be pushed at least weekly.

George Kessebeh
1/25/2024 01:51:09 pm

Homework is beneficial because it excerisises your brain when you study and it helps you out with assignments .

T Samuels 6b
1/25/2024 04:33:10 pm

I agree with you because homework does helps you out with assignments.

N rainey 1a
1/25/2024 07:33:14 pm

i agree because its many times where homework helped me understand the assignment and i was able to do better in class

M Evbuomwan 8b
1/25/2024 11:59:00 pm

I agree homework can be beneficial in this way.

C Valdez 1A
1/25/2024 02:51:30 pm

I think homework can be beneficial for students because it gets them used to be able to do assignments at home. Being able to spare time out of your day and making a schedule for any assignments needed to be done is important and homework can help start those earlier. I think homework shouldn't be done or given daily or in too much in one week because it could take up too much time when there's enough time to do work at school.

T Samuels 6b
1/25/2024 04:32:01 pm

I agree with your perspective because it highlights an important aspect of homework’s benefits by cultivating valuable life skills like time management and responsibility. By allowing students to practice tasks outside of school hours, homework can indeed prepare them for managing their workload effectively in the future.

N rainey 1a
1/25/2024 07:32:31 pm

i agree its good for student as long as its not too much or overwhelming cause kids have lives too

L Vargas 1A
1/26/2024 10:14:44 am

I can agree with your point of view the reason being would be that if there's too much work being presentable in one week it could stress you out and overworked your brain too much.

A Giles 1A
1/26/2024 10:18:19 am

I think homework is benefical but the fact that it could be mandatory you do not know how students lives are outside of school.

D Mims 1a
1/26/2024 11:22:54 am

Yes I agree, you don’t know how some people lives are outside of school

A Giles 1A
1/25/2024 03:25:51 pm

I think homework isn't necessary to have. When the teachers give you work to do at home you might not have time, considering if you are an athlete or have a job, etc. When people are out of school the teachers have no idea what the students are doing after school they might be doing something important. This is why school is in a building not outside of it.

L Vargas 1A
1/26/2024 10:34:57 am

I can agree with your opinion there are multiple reasons why homework is a waste of time one of those reasons could be doing something important one example could be a job.

Z.Woods 6B
1/26/2024 02:40:10 pm

I somewhat agree, as long as students are showing that they is understanding the topic and doing good with classwork, the teacher shouldn't have to assign homework.

T Samuels 6b
1/25/2024 04:29:52 pm

Homework can be beneficial when used effectively. It reinforces learning, encourages independent thinking, and helps students develop time management skills. However, excessive or busywork-style assignments can be counterproductive, leading to stress and burnout.

D Mims 1a
1/26/2024 11:24:03 am

I agree, it is beneficial when used correctly

D Davis 6B
1/26/2024 05:22:02 pm

I agree, sometimes when teachers give out homework and it can be too much for someone and stress them out. But having homework does help with teaching priorities.

M Roberson 8B
1/26/2024 11:51:07 pm

I agree with what you said. I think people should acknowledge the cons also. I also believe that homework serves more purposes like time management.

Hernandez A. 4A
1/27/2024 11:15:10 am

This response is correct about homework making smarter and be ready for anything as long you don't overwork yourself too much.

N rainey 1a
1/25/2024 07:31:11 pm

homework is beneficial and i say that because homework gives you a chance to go home and get some extra practice also it can be an extra grade that can bump you up

A Giles 1A
1/26/2024 03:19:14 pm

I agree with you but sometimes it can be to the point where it is just too much for certain classes and how many you have to do.

D Costilla 4A
1/26/2024 05:55:21 pm

I agree with the fact that homework does help you get some extra practice. I believe having extra practice and the more you get into the routine in something, it can help you. understand the certain subject a lot more.

Sanchez 6
1/27/2024 11:43:23 am

I agree that homework is beneficial as it provides additional practice. I think that the more you engage in a particular routine, the better you understand the subject.

M Roberson 8B
1/25/2024 11:25:45 pm

I do think homework is beneficial. Some might say it can be overwhelming, but I think that when children do homework it can help with the topics that they learn at school. Homework is good because it gives you more practice and understanding of the things you have learned.

M Evbuomwan
1/25/2024 11:57:53 pm

Homework can be beneficial but not everyone can have the advantage of being able to do it at home most people have other things to do

D Lopez 3a
1/26/2024 11:36:56 am

I agree because homework is very beneficial but it has its own advantages and disadvantages.

jadianrivers 7b
1/26/2024 09:39:51 pm

I agree with this bc it can help some students that’s don’t have much to do at home but for some kids may need to work. To live or even help they parents

Amalio Garcia 1A
1/26/2024 08:48:32 am

I believe that homework is actually beneficial, although many may disagree and say homework has no use is false, because not only does the homework test your brain on how much your brain took in from the lesson the teacher has taught it also warms up your brain to take in more knowledge and to keep it more active.

Alynette Delgado 6B
1/26/2024 01:33:38 pm

I strongly agree with this since it has happen to me before.

A, Martinez 6B
1/26/2024 10:30:16 am

Homework was first introduced as a puishment for disgruntle students, and nowadays it's just a common thing and honestly it's the most useless crap especially now since kids get there homework go home and look it up it provides no benifit to a student.

D Lopez 3a
1/26/2024 11:33:57 am

i agree because it was once important now kids dont care and just look up every answer.

C, Ramirez 3A
1/26/2024 05:03:39 pm

Agreed! Every homework nowadays can be found online. We dont learn anuthing from just copying so why give out homework. Why not just actually teach in class and then a student can learn.

D.mims 1a
1/26/2024 11:22:11 am

Homework is beneficial I feel like to some people, because most people don’t like doing work at the house and they forget or they just don’t want to do it, but to some it is because it’s a extra way of getting information in rather then being at school

D Lopez 3a
1/26/2024 11:29:27 am

Homework can be beneficial in many ways for certain people. A lot of people don't like the idea of homework but it can help you in ways you couldn't imagine. Its a form of more information you can learn outside of school or it could be done during school.

C.lott 3A
1/26/2024 02:13:01 pm

I agree, cause its onlt beeficial for you. I think people dont realize how helpful it is. The outcome of doing homework may even help you feel more confident during class time

Albiar X
1/26/2024 12:25:35 pm

i feel like it depends on what type of homework it is if its homework that we arent really interested in or if its pointless than i feel as theres no reason to give homework but if its a fun assignment or something that we can beneficially learn throughout the way than it can be

Z.woods 5B
1/26/2024 02:35:02 pm

I disagree, I feel like it doesn't matter if it is interesting or not. Homework is put in place to test your knowledge.

L Speed 1A
1/26/2024 12:41:24 pm

No one wants to do homework right after a long day at school and some of us have work right after school. It's pointless to give us homework.

Johnson M 2 1A
1/26/2024 12:53:53 pm

I believe that homework is beneficial because it caused you to think more about the topic. It may be time consuming but it helps you with problem solving and cognitive skills.

Alynette Delgado 6B
1/26/2024 01:30:53 pm

I agree with this person since it is how I think as well.

C.lott 3A
1/26/2024 01:54:24 pm

I agree, because homework isnt something haded to you to waiste your time. The homework is beneficial to you to help you grow at certain parts you need help in. It would help so may skill sets for your own good.

Sanchez 6
1/27/2024 11:39:55 am

Homework is not just a waste of time, but rather an opportunity for personal growth. It helps you improve in areas where you need assistance and develops various skill sets that are beneficial for your overall development.

A Bradley 6B
1/28/2024 03:49:57 pm

I agree that it gives you more time to think about the topic so that you aren't only learning at school and it does take time which is why some people don't like doing it.

Alynette Delgado 6B
1/26/2024 01:29:59 pm

I believe homework is beneficial which will help with getting stuff memorize and also to study for the test. however i believe that since is school work it should also be just work we do at school. But we also do need it so we can study and get better at the subject.

C.lott 3A
1/26/2024 01:47:27 pm

I believe homework is beneficial because it allows students practice good habits. I think it requires students to actually go home and take the time out to actually think critically. Also, it teaches students managment skills

Z.Woods 6B
1/26/2024 02:31:49 pm

I believe homework is beneficial because it test your knowledge about the topic. It also help teachers determine how well their students understand the lesson.

C,Ramirez 3A
1/26/2024 04:56:36 pm

Homework is not beneficial. Homework brings extra stress to students who have jobs, and extra curricular activities this could impact their mental health or just health in general. A lot of the homework assigned nowadays can be found on the internet which can lead to us not learning properly. Having practice is different from having homework because homework is graded by teacher then never discussed again. Practice allows for mistakes and lets you have the ability to ask teachers questions without your grade suffering. While some teachers discuss homework and actually use it for class lessons, most dont and simply use it as "busy work". Homework can also make a student lose intrest in school or putting effort in the work they turn it

Contreras M 6B
1/26/2024 06:17:09 pm

This is also something I feel is debatable. Some students just simply do not have the time to do their homework due to their personal life. However i agree that practice is where the students learn since they are able to make mistakes without their grades being hurt.

D Davis 6B
1/26/2024 05:18:32 pm

I think that homework is beneficial. While myself and others don't like to do work at home, I think it helps you retain the information you learn at school better. It can also give you a chance to better understand things you didn't get during the class.

Although, I hate having to do homework, but I do think it is somewhat beneficial. I say this because it honestly does help exercise your brain. And it also helps one to practice their skills, and learn more about the subject itself.

Although, I hate having to do homework, but I do think it is somewhat beneficial. I say this because it honestly does help exercise your brain. And it also helps one to practice their skills, and learn more about the subject itself. And it can also help improve students routine, and help them learn new skills and get used to studying as well. Which are all pros that can be very beneficial in the future, like college and what not.

Homework is beneficial because it helps students learn. It is a way for them to practice on their own. People learn from making mistakes and help learn time management skills.

Most the time, it feels like our life revolves around School. I do understand that most jobs need good education, but people that want to go above and beyond for those Jobs can do that on their own time, we are not all the same

Homework is beneficial because you’re not gonna learn what you need to during a hour and a half class period. It takes time to actually grasps the concepts that are being thrown your way and homework helps you do that. It helps build on the information you learned in class and educate yourself.

I think having homework is a good thing, because it can build good habits. Like solving problems on your own and also could improve self awareness and understanding. It could be beneficial for your future and setting you up in how to be better in your future.

Honestly I think homework is beneficial, it’s gets the mind working and helps you see if you really learn anything in class. It’s also a reflection of your study habits.

t's up to you to make things happen at school, but that's not always the reality. Without homework, you might forget how to solve problems. As a student, it's your responsibility to learn independently.

Homework is mostly beneficial because it allows you to get prepared for what you're going to be doing for the next class and also you can do and finish work that you weren't able to finish in class if you ran out of time.

True, but I also have other classes I have to attend. My life doesn’t revolve around School and weekends are not enough for me mentally. after school I should have that time to myself and my other responsibilities.

Homework can be good and bad. I personally feel like School work should only be held during school hours. But I do understand how homework can be beneficial. At the end of the day everyone has different lives and for the most part a lot of kids can’t get to work because they have other things at home going on. Most teachers are very understanding but some aren’t. So I think no homework

I believe that homework is need so we can keep the knowledge in our brain once we go home. I am also not talking like a full on 50 question worksheet. just a easy 10 question worksheet to keep everything in our brain.

    Mixed Ink

    Mixed Ink is our class blog, the window into our souls. It was designed to improve students' writing, critical thinking and communication skills by giving them a platform to provide meaningful content based on their interpretation of what they see.

    Although the students receive a grade based on a rubric for completing this assignment, they are not graded on complexity of thought. This is a place where students of all levels can freely, confidently and creatively express themselves and their opinions in a nonjudgmental platform. They are required to respond to and critique each other, but degradation, slander, lewdness, etc., will not be tolerated.
