Maralyn Parker's Blog

Maralyn Packer is the award winning education columnist for The Daily Telegraph in Sydney, Australia. Packer is well known for her support for public education in Australia and has left leaning political views. Maralyn believes that school education is particularly underfunded in Australia and that the federal and state governments must seriously reinvest Australia's public systems. Her columns appear weekly in The Daily Telegraph.

I read one of her columns 'I hate homework'.

She posted it on Monday. 21st July 2008.

In this post, she discuss the homework.

A girl said 'I hate homework' and Maralyn analysed that why some students hate it and cannot enjoy...

She insisted that Kindergarten children should never be given homework.

And up yo Year 6 it depends on how much the child is enjoying  the work and how hard it is to do.

This is good information for both students and their parents.

I agree with her.

Kindergarten children shouldn't have to study hard...

Children have to enjoy their lives especially they are young...

It is really important to enjoy studying.

I just wrote about 'I hate homework'.

But you would be able to find out more interesting her columns.

Go and check it out!
