Write a short paragraph to prepare for a group discussion. Explain your thoughts on the issue of homework. Do students have too much?

Answer:

Students today have too much homework. The National Education Association recommends two hours of homework a day for high school students. Yet, many have three hours or more. Also, homework often causes stress. According to one study, 56 percent of students claim that homework is their main source of stress. Therefore, students should be assigned less homework in school.
