[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ACPS middle-school teacher here. Homework in the elementary schools varies tremendously from school to school, program to program, and even teacher to teacher. Some of our 6th graders are used to homework when they enter, while for others the middle-school workload is a shock. Which school is your kid at?[/quote] Our kid is at one of the schools that feeds into GW (not Lyles Crouch). DC is self-motivated and driven but became stressed (over MAP tests and SOLs no less - probably because those tests may have been overemphasized). We are not against homework at all but are concerned about homework load, staying organized, and managing stress and pressure. Thinking where a tutor would come in would be to assist with prioritizing and brainstorming about how to tackle projects and thus help reduce stress. Thanks so much for offering input.[/quote]
