[quote=Anonymous]Some homework to reinforce what is happening in school, build good study habits, and let families know what kids are working on is really helpful. I would check in with the math teacher and anyone else who might assign homework and see if you can coordinate with them to make sure kids aren't getting more than 30 minutes or so a night, or no more than 1.5 hours a week. By the way, I think weekly assignments are much better for kids than nightly. It is less stress overall and is helpful for kids who have activities or other commitments some nights and not others. It also encourages building up time management skills as if they leave it all for Sunday night, it will be a pain to finish, so it encourages them to set aside time (with parents help) to work on it throughout the week.[/quote]
