[quote=Anonymous]My son is in 5th grade and his teacher is assigning book reports and projects left and right. He just turned in a project which was a PowerPoint on a topic of his choice and she critiqued the hell out of it and he got a 70% on the project. I read the rubric and we made sure each part of the rubric was met, but she had a lot to say that was wrong with it.

She has also assigned a group project which isn’t working too well because they are doing it over video chat and unable to meet up in person. On top of these projects he is assigned up to 40 math problems from the textbook  per night which must be done on loose leaf and scanned into the system. Last week they had an assignment for science which had over 50 questions and on Friday, she told the students that she felt like they had worked in groups on the project and this is effectively cheating so she wouldn’t accept it and is assigning a new packet of science questions from the several chapters that they must answer.

Does this sound normal or is it a bit much??[/quote]
