How to Make Up a Good Excuse for Your Homework Not Being.
DD1 (year 7) was given a half hour after school detention on Monday for forgetting her homework - detention was given Monday morning, for after school Monday afternoon. All fine, she should have remembered, school issue after school detentions for late homework, she knows that, hopefully she won't forget it again (it's not the first time she's handed in homework late for this teacher).
The 10 Best Homework Excuses. 1. I got my backpack stolen: use rampant crime among high school students to your advantage. No teacher in his right mind would expect you to turn in that big assignment if it got stolen the very day it was due. Although most teachers won’t follow through, filing a missing backpack report might not be a bad idea. 2.
I think the teachers should give them some time and if the kids keep forgetting to do the homework them they should give an after-school detention. If the kid is constantly forgetting and not doing homework then they should get punished. But if a kid has only had a couple times that they forgot then they shouldn't get an after-school detention.
If it's a school that gives an automatic detention for stuff like forgetting a piece of homework, not having a pen or being two minutes late, I'd say it's pretty normal to get a handful of detentions in year 7. Because it takes kids a while to get organised and mistakes happen.
My ds got detention for forgetting homework in year 7 and was mortified, I talked to him about it and it never happened again. I teach in his school though and have had students ask how long the homework will take so they can decide whether it's better to take the detention These students imo are the ones who aren't benefitting from no punishments at home.
If punishments are seen as draconian and unfair, then children will rebel against them. A warning for forgetting homework and an expectation that it will be on the teacher's desk by the next morning is fine, with a detention given if not carried out. A detention for forgetting homework - first offence - seems unnecessarily harsh IMO.
No longer are the traditional excuses gonna cut it. It’s time to evolve into the next generation and challenge your teacher to keep up with your creative homework dodging.

Serving Detention Duty Right Now. As an educator in the profession for more than 10 years, I find that detention is often misused. However, it can constructed to be an effective deterrent, which is all we can hope for with any negative punishment.
This one time my parents left me at school 7 hours after it ended. I had a 30 minute detention for forgetting to do my homework. My parents confirmed they would pick me up twice. I was new so I didn't know how to get home if I walked.
I am interested to know if anyone has had or still gets PE detentions (for misbehavour in PE or forgetting kit etc) where the detention actualy involves doing PE in full PE kit. Thank you for you time, please feel free to leave some messages of your experiences.
My Math teacher warned us, that if we forget to turn in homework on the day it is due, Lunch Detention (s) will be given. I forgot my Math Homework yesterday, and didn't turn it in, This is my 1st time forgetting my Math Homework. I don't know anyone who has forgot their math homework. My town is.
One teacher message board that put the call out for quality detention activities drew suggestions including everything from having students finish a series of math problems, to the oldest detention activity in the book: seated silence.
They are monitored by senior teachers and regarded as a serious sanction. Leadership detentions are issued for failing to attend school detentions. They are also issued for 60 minutes for those students that fail to attend department detentions. All other leadership detentions last for 90 minutes.
