[quote=Anonymous]My DD is in 6th grade at Deal and the homework was an adjustment but once my DD got organized, she's been handling it pretty much on her own.  Is this an issue of organization and time management?  There is a club offered that focuses on helping kids organize and strategize around homework.  I don't think it's typical to spend weekends and a lot of time on homework. For us it averages about 45 minutes with intermittent times when it might be more because of a more in-depth assignment. My DD tends to stay at afterschool for activities and gets much of her homework done in the library.  Does your child use EdLine to stay on top of assignments and track grades?

I would suggest speaking with the lead teacher for your team to see what he/she might suggest.  Also if you feel your child is not getting enough attention in the classroom - you have to get in there and get in their face about it.  Ask the teachers give you some practical advice to help your child succeed.  My experience has been that teachers and the Asst Principal will respond to your concerns.[/quote]
