In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims Stories]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4]]'', [[child]]ren and [[teen]]s get '''homework''' on [[school]] days. Homework comes in the form of a school notebook, with differing covers depending on the student's [[life stage]]{{Vgversion|TS2}}{{Vgversion|TS4}} and the {{Clarify|number of days that have passed.|since when?}}{{Vgversion|TS2
In ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]'', students young adult and above are also given homework after each class.

Clicking on the homework gives the child or teen an option to complete it or ask an older Sim for help. An older household member, when the homework is clicked, can offer help with finishing the homework. A child or teen who is being helped with homework will finish it faster, and will gain the [[Memories|memory]] of being [[Secret skills#The Sims 2|taught to study]]. This will fulfill the "Ask for Homework Help" [[Wants and Fears|want]], and will allow them to do homework more quickly in the future. If ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons|Seasons]]'' is installed, students will do homework faster in the [[fall]], or after drinking [[Juices#Recipes|apple juice]].
Sims can do homework while seated at a desk or sitting down on the ground. There does not appear to be any difference in completion speed depending on how the Sim is seated. If ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life|Apartment Life]]'' is installed, Sims cannot do homework that is placed in an [[apartment]]'s communal area.
Sims will not usually get distracted while doing homework, unless their motives are low. They are more likely to get distracted if they are being helped by an older Sim. It is usually best to ensure that both the student and the mentor are in a good [[mood]] prior to beginning the interaction, and that no other interactions are in their queue until the homework has been completed. They may get halted by other Sims, so it's also recommended that the child and the instructing Sim are at close approximately with one another.▼

There is no time limit on completing homework, but doing (or not doing) homework will affect a student's grades. A student who goes to school in a good mood with all homework done will gain a better grade. Students will not be penalized for going to school with one piece of incomplete homework, but going to school with more than one piece of incomplete homework may cause their grades to drop.<ref group="n">Grades are adjusted according to the amount of incomplete homework remaining on the lot, and not whether the homework was actually completed. Thus, players can simply delete homework using the [[moveobjects]] cheat or have a [[pet]] destroy it, and Sims will not be penalized for it.</ref>

Once Sims become a child or teen on-screen, they will automatically receive a homework book appropriate for their life stage in their inventory, whether or not they have attended school in the past. Children will have a yellow book labeled "Grade School Homework" while teens will receive a blue book simply labeled "Homework". When a student receives a B or above from school, they will be given the option "Do Extra Credit" if they have finished the homework by clicking again on their individual homework books. Children have the ability to receive help from adults. Unlike previous games, children who neglect their homework still have a fair shot at keeping their school performance high by completing other tasks such as maintaining certain moods or building skills. If a player's Sim misplaces a homework book or ages up to a child or teen off-screen, they can purchase a new homework book for §1 from a bookcase, or simply use another Sim's homework book. Unlike previous games, a homework book is not tied to a particular Sim.
If all four of a child Sim's skills ([[Creativity (The Sims 4)|creativity]], [[mental]], [[motor]], [[Social (skill)|social]]) are at least level 3, "Do Homework" changes to "Breeze Through Homework", meaning the Sim is already skilled and can complete the homework more quickly. With all four skills at level 7, this changes again to "Dominate Homework," and the homework can be completed even more quickly. This speed boost is not available to teen Sims.
Homework is given to young adult sims and older in ''[[The Sims 4: Discover University]]''. Students must complete homework before every class to achieve high grades. Although failure to do so may impact a sim’s performance at university, homework is not essential. Sims that miss their homework can make up for it by studying extra hours, or edit their term papers to be outstanding quality. However to get the highest grades, it is recommended that university students finish homework before each class.
Like with school homework, a new university homework book can be purchased from any bookcase or university kiosk. Homework of any type can be completed 50% faster on lots with the “Study Spot” [[lot trait]].
