Do kids need homework? Some of our readers insist that the extra work reinforces what they learn in class. Others say homework adds to students’ stress and takes time away from exercise or learning something new. Here are some students’ opinions.
孩子们需要家庭作业吗?我们的一些读者坚持认为,额外的作业可以巩固他们在课堂上学到的知识。还有人说家庭作业增加了学生的压力,占用了他们锻炼或学习新东西的时间。以下是一些学生的观点。
When kids learn something new in school, reviewing it at home helps them remember it. Our homework gives our teachers valuable information. It tells them whether students are paying attention in class and who needs extra help. Homework is important at every stage of learning. —Peter, 9
当孩子们在学校学到新东西时,在家里复习可以帮助他们记住。我们的家庭作业给老师提供了宝贵的信息。它告诉他们学生在课堂上的注意力有多少,谁需要额外的帮助。家庭作业在学习的每个阶段都很重要。——彼得, 9岁
Kids are learning for six hours a day at school, focusing on subjects from math and science to history and reading. Adding another hour of work for kids to do at home is just having them repeat what they’ve been doing all day. Plus, homework takes time away from activities like team sports, hobbies, exercise, and playing. These are just as important as schoolwork. Homework just covers what they already learned in class. It’s pointless. —Mike, 11
孩子们每天在学校学习6个小时,专注于从数学、科学到历史和阅读等科目。让孩子在家里多做一个小时的作业,只是让他们重复他们一整天都在做的事情。此外,家庭作业占用了团队运动、业余爱好、锻炼和玩耍等活动的时间。这些和课业一样重要。家庭作业只是涵盖他们在课堂上学到的内容。这毫无意义。——迈克,11岁
In my opinion, giving students homework is a bad idea. Kids need time after school for experiences that build a healthy mind and body. Homework is not supposed to stress kids out. It’s meant to help them grow. But when homework heaps up, students get stressed. And the quality of homework that a stressed-out mind produces is low. Doing homework poorly is worse than doing no homework. As long as students are working hard in class, it’s best not to give them extra work. —Olivia, 9
在我看来,给学生留作业是一个坏主意。孩子们放学后需要时间去体验可以建立健康的身心的活动。家庭作业不应该给孩子带来压力。这是为了帮助他们成长。但当作业堆积如山时,学生们就会感到压力。压力过大的人所做的家庭作业质量也很低。作业做得不好比不做作业更糟糕。只要学生在课堂上努力学习,最好不要给他们额外的作业。—— 奥利维亚,9岁
