[quote=Anonymous]In our IEPs, we've indicated that homework is challenging for us because our kids are exhausted physically and mentally by the time they get home. We are happy to reinforce concepts learned in school but there comes a point where there is no return on the effort and we're not willing to sacrifice our relationship with our kids to push it needlessly. We spend more than 10 minutes per grade level on homework (meaning the kids have to be ready and working when the timer starts). We allow them to take breaks but if they do, the timer stops. Whatever they get done, gets turned in. It allows the teacher to see how much they're able to to and how well. Our kids like to read and they do a lot on the weekends but I don't require them to read during the week.[/quote]
