In The Sims 2, The Sims Stories and The Sims 3, children and teens get homework on school days.
The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories
In The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories, children and teens will have homework in their hands after they get off the school bus. If possible, they will put the assignment on or by a desk, and seem to prefer the first desk that was placed in the house. If a student has unfinished homework, he or she will put the new homework on top of it. The player can tell the student to put the homework down by canceling the "Go to School" icon. Homework can be moved in buy and build modes, though it cannot be deleted. A child's homework will be brightly colored, but a teen's homework will be plain.
Clicking on the homework allows the player to have the Sim do his or her homework, or to ask an older Sim for help. If an older household member is selected, clicking on the homework allows that Sim to offer to help the student with his or her homework. A child or teen who is being helped with homework will finish it faster, and will gain the memory of being taught to study, which will allow them to do homework more quickly. If Seasons is installed, students will do homework faster in the fall, or after drinking apple juice.
There is no time limit on homework in The Sims 2, 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 letter grade. Students will not be penalized for going to school with one piece of homework undone, but going to school with more than one piece of homework undone may cause their grades to drop.
If a teen has unfinished homework when he or she is sent to college, it will disappear.
The Sims 3
On School days, children and teens will come home with homework in their inventory unlike The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories where they would place the Homework down. They will have the "Do Homework", "Do Homework With", and "Get Help From" interactions, so they will be able to get help from an older Sim on the lot. Sims may stop doing homework if they are hungry or have a low bladder meter. Bookworm Sims get homework done faster, and the Public Library is a good place to study.
Students who skip homework or do not complete it on time will receive a bad mark in the Homework area of their school performance (This can be found in the 'School' section of the Sims' Simology panel.) Students who complete their homework on time get a good mark in this section. However, homework can be finished while at school using the "Work on Late Homework" option. Good students grow up to be good adults, so it is important that young Sims maintain good grades. If a Sim has an A when they age up, the player will be able to choose his or her next trait.[1]
In Generations children can bury their homework in the sandbox but will get a bad grade for it.
Notes
- ↑ If the School is deleted, then the player will get to choose their next trait if the Sim was in a Good Mood.
