Worksheets are generally thought of as boring and do not motivate us to learn. Although it might get information into our short-term memory, it is not an effective way to teach students math.

We are advocating for a reduction of worksheets during math lessons, in favor of more efficient ways of learning, such as some competitiveness, teamwork, and puzzles. We don't want to rule out worksheets entirely, but we do want to have less.

Honestly they are so boring, half the time I just copy the answers from the back of the book anyway. Lets do something actually useful.

I hate Maths worksheets. They should be really given less and they really discourage students.

Good method for homework, but bad for learning
