Can my children do homework while listening to music or watching television?
Some students can work with a radio or stereo on, while others must work in silence. Television can be a big problem. Many teachers ask that the television be turned off while children are doing homework. Research shows that American children on average spend far more time watching television than they do completing homework. Although it’s worth noting that television can be a learning tool, it’s best to leave the television off during homework time.
