Example of Discussion

Title
Giving Children Homework: Pro and Con
Stated issue
         There are a lot of discussions as to whether children should be given homework or not. It is enough for children having time to study at school or do they need additional time at home to study after school time.
Against arguments
Some people claim that children do enough work in school already. They also argue that children have hobbies that they want to do after school, sucj as sport or music. A further point they make is that a lot of homework are pointless and does not help the children learn at all.
Supporting arguments
       However, they are also strong arguments against this point of view.  Parents and teachers argue that it is important to find out whether children can work on their own without the support from the teacher. They say that the evening is good time for children to sit down and think about whet have learned in school.
         Further more, they claim that the school day is too short to get anything done. It makes sense to send home tasks like independent reading or further writing task which does no need the teacher’s support.
Recommendation
         I think, on balance, that some homework is good idea but that should only given at the weekend when children have more time.
