I personally loved doing homework as a kid. Sometimes it was as simple as getting my mom to sign my daily journal, or full out worksheet.
I think it may get kids used to homework so there are no problems forgetting when they get older.

*edit* As a side note, there are really to many kids crowding the classrooms as it is, its hard to know if they are able to learn anything, or if they are just playing around. If they have homework, its easier to tell if they are on pace, and also making sure they pay attention in class so they know what to do for homework.
