STRESS

• “One school in New Jersey sent forty-five sixth graders with over 20 worksheets to prepare for stat testing, and I just find that completely unreasonable. There is no way those children enjoyed their Easter breaks!” Said by a member of the Association of teachers and lecturers.

STUDENTS NEED SLEEP!

SLEEP!

• Student-stay up late-homework
• Wake up early/school

SLEEP!

• “Students can’t control the time they get home from school...sometimes they get home so late that they can’t finish all the homework assigned to them” said a teacher at an elementary school in North Carolina.

COUNTER ARGUMENT

• Some say/boost intelligence, responsibility

REBUTTAL

• More sleep-increase attention span-more intelligence

Schools shouldn’t allow homework.

I believe we can all help by talking to parents to talk to the principal to change things.
