[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I’m in conversation with Mrs. Garrett about these issues. I brought them up to Ms. Cozelle, and she told me that the math should take the bulk of the time and each other subject should be 10-15 minutes. That has not been our experience at all. There are some new 6th grade teachers this year, and I wonder if they’re aware of the homework load and if they are communicating with each other.

No, he is actually working (with a few bathroom/water/rest breaks, of course). Just completing the assignments takes a while. When I look at the CJ, it’s like: okay you have homework in 5 subjects tonight. Time to get started.

One parent said she has to force her kid to go to bed and just stop. Is that normal to you?[/quote]

No - not normal. US parent here and my student doesn’t have close to that amount of homework and is taking multiple APs. Any chance there is an undiagnosed LD? This is the age where the bright kids who could skate by often get diagnosed. Are your child’s peers having the same struggles?[/quote]
