Yeah, most teachers never do that. And I'm glad, because I do my homework in class a lot.
And unless you're teaching elementary school and trying to engrave good manners into the kids, I don't really agree with it. From the time I've been in kindergarten it's been ok for me to do that, and I can only imagine its that way for most kids. I don't really think twice about doing it; no teacher has ever commented on it and I don't expect them too.
If they've been taught all their life that it's ok to do it then its not really fair to deduct from their grade. Give them detention just so that they know it's not ok to do it in your classroom, and warn them next time they do it you'll give them a zero.
