Is Homework Ban the Beginning of a National Revolution?

Yesterday, the CBS Nightly News picked up the story of the homework ban at The Oak Knoll Elementary School in Menlo Park, California, and asked whether Oak Knoll is at the forefront of a homework revolution. I hope so. After a short ad, you can watch the story here.

    we have about 7 hours of school a day which is 35 hours a week and at least 2 hours of homework a day for 10 hours a week of homework which is crazy because school work should be done at school and not at home because students need time with there family and friends and homework causes stress because not all student learn the same and need some time out of school to work on it.

    ANOTHER THING IS THAT KIDS LEARN MORE WHEN THERE OUT SIDE BECAUSE WHEN WE ARE DOING HOME WORK WE
    ARE JUST LOOKING UP ANSWERS AND WRIGHTING THEM DOWN BUT THE ONLY THING WE LEARN IS HOW TO USE A BOOK AND NOTHING IN IT.
