[quote=Anonymous]For algebra in 7th, DD had homework but didn't have to do it. What mattered is that they mastered the material. I think this approach is becoming more and more common, but I believe it's up to the teacher. I don't remember what 6th was like but I believe that DD didn't do a lot of the homework assignments and still did well in the class (and obviously was placed in algebra for 7th because that was where they belonged). DD is not the kind of child who can be pushed so I almost entirely stayed out of it. The only thing I did was help them at the beginning of sixth do one math assignment with them so I could show them how to be neat and organized when writing down their work, and impressed upon them that organization and neatness was almost as important as learning the concepts.
