It depends on what you mean by "the past." There was a time when kids didn't have homework at all - because they had to go to work instead of to school! Before the Industrial Revolution, you only got an education if your parents were really rich; otherwise, you either went to work in a factory, or became an apprentice to someone who would teach you their job. This was for kids as young as today's primary school.

After the Industrial Revolution, kids had pretty much what you think of as a normal school with homework, though for awhile, paper was pretty expensive and kids did their work on a piece of slate like a little blackboard, or on birchbark where that was available.
