Homework is not a waste of time
One of the ways of making it in life. Those are the words that should make you realize why homework is not a waste of time. My point of view is this because I believe that homework is one of the little things in life that make a big difference. Homework keeps us caught up in our curriculum and lets us stay organised in our studies.
Think about it, when you go home with homework, you sit down and take at least thirty seconds to organise your worksheets and assignments. You always think about what you need to do and how you should do it. This is organisation; as growing up with more and more homework, you learn the life skill of staying organised. When you're organised, you get assignments handed in, you stay on top of things. You stay occupied and active.     
Speaking of being active, when kids get home they watch television, go on their computer or text on their cellular devices being lazy. Homework keeps their brains running and it keeps them intellectually inclined. A world famous scientist named Doctor Shoe, has proven that you need to exercise to avoid obesity. Homework keeps them thinking and achieving goals.        
In my opinion, homework is an everyday goal that gives us kids a feeling of achievement and the satisfaction makes us work harder. When we have reached achievements in life, our confidence gives us the ability to work harder so we're proud of the results. Homework is a reach of success in little ways that is just a step closer to getting a good education and making it in life.
Basically, I believe that organisation staying active, staying intellectually inclined, and believing in you is the key to making it in life. It is also part of what homework does for us. I believe that little things like homework make you these things. School is a make it or break it part of life. If you do your homework and achieve in assignments, you're going to make it. Homework isn't a waste of time, it's a life achievement that gives you the pleasure once it's finished.

  1. Hi Holley, your essay is really good. I like how you used different vocabulary and how you related to what happens in everyday life. The only thing that you should work on is spelling. (In some parts)

  2. Dear Holly,
    I think you did very well writing this essay out. I liked how your thesis sentence grabbed my attention. I liked your use of interesting words like intellectually and inclined. I think you should of improved on your hook just a bit so it can really impress the reader and some of your spelling should be corrected.

  3. Dear Holly,
    Your essay was very exciting to read. Your introduction was exceptional for me. I say this because the thesis statement for your essay was a little confusing at first. Your opinion was very clear, and also you did a very nice job mentioning the reasons why homework isnt a waste of time. For your body paragraph, i thought it was very well planned out. You cleary stated your reasons on why you chose your belief. For example 'This is organisation; as growing up with more and more homework, you learn the life skill of staying organised. When you're organised, you get assignments handed in, you stay on top of things. You stay occupied and active.' In this piece of writing you quoted you stated exactly why you thought your reason. Your spelling was ok, and your introduction was well planned out also.
















    ctly why you thought your reason.

  4. Dear Holley,
    Your esaay was good. Each body paragraph has clear arguments that support your thesis and,I like how you made a lot of connections. You need to use quotes and, rhetorical questions.
