Checkbox is not getting displayed

I am creating a form in which I have specified some EditText and some TextView . At last I have specified a Checkbox like this:

<CheckBox
                android:id="@+id/sendAsSMS"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:text="Send As SMS"
                android:checked="false"
                android:textSize="16sp"

                />

But this checkbox is not getting displayed in the layout when the app is running. What is going wrong here. My full layout.xml is :

You have to change the width attribute value of EditText 'editTextHomeworkText' in 

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/textView_Homework"
            android:text="@string/text_homework"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:padding="@dimen/text_padding"
            android:textColor="@color/colorPrimary"
            android:textSize="@dimen/text_size"
            android:textStyle="bold"/>

        <EditText
            android:id="@+id/editTextHomeworkText"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="74dp"
            android:ems="10"
            android:inputType="textMultiLine"
            android:textSize="@dimen/text_size"/>

        <CheckBox
            android:id="@+id/sendAsSMS"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Send As SMS"
            android:checked="false"
            android:textSize="16sp"

            />


    </LinearLayout>

Since you assigned the width value as 'match_parent' all the remaining space is covered by EditText only. Here either you can change the value to 'wrap_content' or do it like

            android:layout_width="0dp"
            android:layout_weight="1"
