Regular math and science homework improves learning

I wish homework started in 3rd or 4th grade. Around age 10. And then at age 15 it got harder etc. Every 5 years you should have to adjust to a new level closer to adulthood.

The reason, in America, homework must be eliminated is it’s been shown to have a disparate impact on BIPOC students.

The obvious solution, therefore, is to get rid of homework.

Disagree. Not all BIPOC. Homework does not harm Asian and Indian students in the U.S.

However, it is already well recognized those two cohorts benefit from unearned Asian/ Indian privilege.
