Isaac believes that he is too tired to start his homework immediately after school due to having spent the entire day focused in class and surrounded by others. He feels that by taking a break to handle personal tasks like cleaning his room and walking Boomer, he would be more focused and better able to complete his homework effectively, which he takes seriously.
Use the conversation to answer the question. MOM: You need to start your homework as soon as you get home from school. You will be too tired to do it later. ISAAC: I'm tired when I get home from school because I've been paying attention in class and surrounded by people all day. I also have to clean my room and take Boomer for a walk. MOM: Your homework is more important than both of those things. ISAAC: I agree with you. But by the time I get home from school, I've been doing schoolwork for eight hours straight. If I had a break from doing schoolwork to take care of the other things I need to do before starting homework, I think I would be more focused. Also, I always finish my homework. It's important to me that it get done, too. In one to two sentences, explain Isaac's reasoning for wanting to do his homework later than his mother would prefer.
