Grammar
Use of 'the'
I'm writing a teachers' guide to an EFL book and I have a doubt.
Each lesson starts this way:
Start class by checking (the) homework.
I don't know if I should use "the" in this case. Should I or should I not use it? Why / why not?
Many thanks!

flaviaromao I don't know if I should use "the" in this case. It is unnecessary, since the sentence structure is headline style. Otherwise, 'the' would also precede 'class'.
