The Fiddler On the Roof starts out in a village that has tradition. They have a hebrew school and wear hats on their head for God. the girls work in the fields,sow,iron and cook. The setting is in Russia and the people are jewish. There are strange people in the town but nobody bothers one another they just got their own way. The houses are built of wood and sod. A husband is not to look at a husband is to look at according to the mother.The fiddler on the roof is the 1971 American Film adaptation of the Broadway musical. It was directed by Norman Jewison. The film centers on the family of Tevye, a jewish family living in the town of Anatevka, in Tsarist Russsia, in 1905. Anatevka is broken into 2 sections: a small Orthododx Jewish section and a larger Chrisitan sections. Tevye says "We don't bother them, and so far, they dont' bother us." Tevye is very poor, despite working hard, like others.He and his wife Golde, have 5 daughters and cannot afford to gie themn dowries so they have to rely on the village matchmake to find them husbands. Life in the shtetl of Anatevka is very hard and Tevye speaks of his difficulties of being poor but also of the community's constant fear of harassment from their non-jewish neighbors. The oldesst daughter does not have a husband so the other girls cannot get married because she isn't and she does not have a prospect. so they go to the matchmaker who sets her up with a rich old man. The fiddler appears on a roof because of the Jews' fears and danger. Tevye meet a student with political ideas in town. He invited him to stay at his home with his family, in exchange for perchik tutoring his daughters. The matchmaker, Tevye arranges a marriage for his oldest daughter, Txeitel, to Lazar Wolf a wealthy butcher. Tzeitel is in love with her childhood sweetheart, Motel the tailor, and begs Tevye not to maker her marry and old butcher. He agrees to get tzeitel and tevye out of the agreement with Lazar, tevye claims to have an nightmare, which he repeats to Golde. In the nightmare, he says that Golde's dead grandmother Tzeitel told him that Tzeitel is suppose to marry Motel, as it was decided in heaven. Lazar's late wife, Fruma sarah, warns Tevye that if Tzeitel marries Lazar, she will kill Tzeitel after 3 weeks of marriage. Golde concludes that dream was a message to be follwed from their ancestors, and Tzeitel and Motel arrange to wed. After one of Perchik's lessons with Bielke and Shprintze, tevyes second daughter, Hodel mock Perchik's interpreation of the Bible Story he told her sisters. He in turn criticizes for her hanging on the old traditions of her religion and tells her thta the world is changing. He dances with her becaue the opposites sexes dancing together is considered forbidden to Orthodox Jews.The two fallin in love,and Perchik tells Hodel that they changed in the old tradition. At Tzeitel and Motel's wedding a fight breaks out over whether a girl should be able to choose her own husband. Perchik addresses the crowd and says that since they love eachother, it should be left for the couple to decide and more fights break out due to asking Hodel to dance with him. The 2 begin to dance,, then the crowd warms the idea.The wedding is great joy. The military come and attack the jews and thier property.Perchik prepares to leave Anatevka to work for the revoultguion he proposes to HOdel and she accepts him. When they tell Tevye, he is mad that they decided to marry without his permission. Tevye tells Golde the truth and is prompted to re-evaluate their own arranged marriage.Perchik is arrested in Kiev and is exiled to Siberia. Hodel decides to join him.

TO MUCH HOMEWORK FOR STUDENTS
Have you ever had to stay up until one o'clock in the morning trying to finish your homework? Well most students today are doing that and struggling to find time for anything else. To much homework for students causes stress, loss of fitness, and cause obesity.
First, the world is changing and more oppertunites are coming. Stress can cause intrapersonal communication. The average school starts at 8 am and ends around 3:05 pm. The hours spent are eight during the day. After children go home they want to be outside because they have been stuck in a building all day long. Children can be stressed because they will have three tests to study for the next day on top of five more other classes they take that might assign homework. I have stayed up until two o'clock in the morning studying for homework after a long track meet. By the time I get home I want to sleep but instead I have three classes of homework I have been assigned to do. Some nights I have had so much homework I will start to cry and get headaches due to the stress level. In a news article for CNN, C.Weaver of New Jersey answered saying children are in school for 8 hours a day, they do not need to come home and do another two or three hours of homework. That is more than a full-time job. Children will tend to slack off with so much homework because that reduces less stress. Link to article about stress
Second, homework can interfer with kids interpersonal communication. If children have to much homework this can lead to lack of a social life, which may prevent teens from developing normal personal and leadership skills. These skills could be useful or necessary later in life, and if a teen does not acquire them, they may have a hard time as an adult. http://quazen.com/kids-and-teens/school-time/modern-day-students-have-too-much-homework/
Third, isn't obesity rising in the United States? A fact is homework can cause obesity in students. A teen who is constantly sitting down will begin to lose fitness. Lack of exercise can cause obesity, heart disease, and loss of concentration. The two former are dangerous to physical health, and the latter very important for a student to properly function correctly. This can also cause many more health problems.http://primaryschool.suite101.com/article.cfm/my_child_has_too_much_homework
In conclusion, to much homework can be a fault with the communication process,health problems,and stress levels to be to high. After reading articles about "To Much Homework" there has been positive and negative feedback. We are at a scare as our economy is getting worse and less jobs are creating students are wanting to be doctors and lawyers which means more homework and study time.
