Pros and Cons of Homework

  How do you feel about homework? While homework is stressful and hard which is not good for your mental health, it also helps you academically which is very important. Whichever way you feel about homework there are many pros and cons that might change your opinion.

  Homework helps with student achievement. Homework is like practicing school, the more you practice the better grades you get. You need good grades to get into a good college so homework is very helpful to kids' academic futures. In the High School Journal it is said that students who spent 31 to 90 minutes on homework every day scored around 40 points higher on the SAT-Mathematics subtest than the students who spent no time on homework. That is why homework is important.

    Homework can also not be so great. Having too much homework can be bad, even harmful. Kids need free time, to just do what kids do. It stresses kids out and can also lead to an unhealthy amount of sleep loss, weight loss, headaches and stomach problems.There was a poll taken in California for highschool students, and the results were that 59% thought they had too much homework and 83% said that they were often or always stressed by homework. It also can lead to cheating and that can cause a bad habit. That is why homework is maybe not the best thing.

  As you can see there are two sides to homework. It can be helpful but it can also be harmful. Whichever side you're on, I hope this helped you learn about the other opinion.

Zero Hunger Problem and solution

      World hunger is a major problem. We are trying to reach the global goal of zero hunger by 2030. There are many problems causing world hunger, but, there are also solutions that can help.  Poverty is actually a huge problem that is not helping zero hunger. An effect of poverty is little or no money which means scarce food.There are so many people that are in poverty, in 2013 it was estimated that 767 million people were living below the international poverty line living on $1.90 if they were lucky. We can help this problem by donating food to charities that give food to the homeless. Also if people could provide food for themselves sustainably that would be a very powerful solution. Weak economies and conflict in areas are both a problem in world hunger. Food insecurity has cost a lot of money. In 2010 $19.20 billion was lost because of food insecurity, charities, doctor visits because of illness from hunger etc. This makes economies very weak which l...

Animal Shelters

      Animal shelters need money for various reasons. They need money for food, water, crates, beds and medicine if the dog has an illness. Animal shelters could have to kill the animals if they do not have enough money for all the animals. Animals have no voice of their own and are mistreated and killed way more than you would like to think.   Did you know that about 7.6 million companion pets are surrendered to animal shelters every year? It's true, and that is one of the reasons animal shelters don't have a lot of room and might have to kill the animals. Some people have to surrender their pets because of illness, and the shelters need money to take care of the animals. Others might have to surrender their pets because of landlord rules, allergies and moving. People also find injured or sick wild animals and give them to animal shelters.    My next reason is that the animal shelters overflow. When the shelters overflow some animals have to...
