This year’s nearly two-week Tet holiday may seem long enough for children to “recharge,” but it has left many parents uneasy as exams draw near. “I have always hoped that students could have a Tet holiday with ‘no homework,’ so they can devote 100 percent of their time and attention to ‘learning’ more about the traditional cultural knowledge and values of the nation during Tet,” Ngan said. According to Ngan, there is no need to worry excessively that students will “lose” knowledge if they are not given Tet homework. Therefore, Ngan said assigning homework during Tet is unnecessary and may create avoidable stress and pressure for students. Tet is the most natural space for students to nurture their identity and form a cultural character,” Thuy said.
