There are a lot of discussions as to whether children should be given homework or not.
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, such as sports or music. A further point they make is that a lot of homework is pointless and doesn’t help the child learn at all.
However, there 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 a good time for children to sit down and think about what they have learned in school.
Furthermore they claim that the school day is too short to get anything done that needs doing and it makes sense to send home tasks like independent reading or further writing tasks that don’t need teacher’s support.
On balance, I think that some homework is a good idea but that it should only be given at the weekend when children have more time.

JUMP - Comic Martial Arts performance
By Yegam Korsa
Jumpstart your entertainment experience with a new brand of theatrics this June! Combining physical comedy and Tae Kwon Do, Jump is a high-octane martial arts extravaganza from Korea that features gravity-defying stunts such as slick acrobatics, sword fighting and wall-walking!
JUMP tells the story of an idiosyncratic Korean family under the rule of a strict grandfather who insists on keeping up the physical fitness of all family members through vigorous martial arts training. The performance comes to a climax when two stupid thieves break into the house and confront three generations of kung-fu masters, inspiring a series of ridiculous scenes.
A sell-out show in London’s West End and the NO.1 hit at the Edinburgh Fringe box office in 2005 and 2006, with sell-out shows in Korea, Hong Kong and Macau. JUMP was also performed at Sadlers Wells Theatre in London early this year and will tour Russia and Japan after Singapore.
Be awestruck by this exhilarating theatrical display! A truly entertaining experience for the whole family, JUMP is unique, funny, and utterly spectacular!
“Go and see this show and take all your family and friends too. They will love you forever.” – The British Theatre Guide
