[quote=Anonymous][quote] I appreciate what they’re trying to do, but at what point does it all become busy work? [/quote] I feel like practice for every new skill becomes busy work pretty quickly after the student has learned it. But the teacher is teaching to a class of kids who learn at a different pace. So just because your kid caught on and is doing really well, doesn’t mean the matter has been sufficiently taught to the whole class. What you describe is the difficulty with group education for those who are quick to learn and catch on to new skills. All in all it’s better to be in your kid’s position than to be a kid who takes awhile or learn new things - or never learns them. [/quote]
